He's far, far too easy to get the ball off for a creative player.

He's also far far to unfit to be a winger. That's all on him by the way. To be 4 months or so in to his career with us and sti be as unfit as the day ollie beat his ass on the bleep test is unacceptable. I think he should  and we be taken out the side until that changes

He's not on form but he'll come good.

Along with Ings looking like another waste of money at the moment.
He may come good but he doesn’t convince me.

Interesting that we looked better and went onto win after he went off.

Continues to play well in fits and starts only. I suspect he is not quite as lean and mean as he was for Norwich.

He gave the ball away too cheaply too many times today as well.  Given the money we paid for them, we needed Buendia and Bailey to hit the ground running really and provide us with real quality, but it hasn’t really happened yet at this point.

It's a Catch 22
He won't be good enough for the 1st team with his fitness/ confidence level

The best way to get confidence at least is to play in the 1st team

From what I’ve seen so far, he’s again not the type of player we needed in that position.  With the way we play, I still think we need ‘functional’ wide players who will work back defensively, but then have the pace to transition into attack. 

Thought it was noticeable that we looked more threatening when Bailey and El Ghazi were out wide at the end and were able to run with the ball.

He needs to learn how to buy a foul.

He also needs how to foul and get away with it.  Start by heading his markers in the nuts.

Start? He caught Bissouma in the nuts down by the North Stand/Witton Lane corner of the pitch. Bissouma was rolling around like he'd been shot (in the nuts).

Thanks for that Rudy.  You know my eyesight does not function beyond the Holte End penalty area.  Mind you I was able to make out a number of blue and white striped shirts rolling about at regular intervals.

He seems to have a real ability to pick a pass - it just feels like he trying too hard.  Really hope it clicks for him
