Ramzabac Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Brilliant to see GT back today, thought he was our best player in first 45 minutes, even if a little rusty. broke up their attacks with real authority. A major boost for the league run in. COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIMBAUD Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 It was great to see him back. Yes he was a done after about an hour but he looked solid and hit one superb first time ball down the line in the first half.And i don't want to speak for anyone else - but I love him...

North_Stand_Ram Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 He played decent. A unfit Thorne is still better than Mascarrell in my books. You need muscle in that role. His passing overall was pretty poor, but he broke up countless counter attacks. He will only get better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JW- Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Thought he did well.Was rated second highest on whoscored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tombo Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Surprised a lot of people. Wasn't ever a passenger and looked sharper than I expected. Certainly much sharper than when I saw him line up for the U21s against Stoke. Been training hard for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclej Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Made my day to see him again. I love the way he shields the ball as well as drilling fast long balls through on the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIMBAUD Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 we've got a few more good 'receivers of passes' in our squad since he last played. I look forward to seeing how he links with them when he gets back to full fitness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ram a lamb a ding dong Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 His tracking back and recycling was a big improvement on what has gone previous. Agree that a half fit GT is a big improvement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlaxholmeRam Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Good to see him back. The roar that followed his name being called out was fantastic too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YorkshireRam Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 The initial reception from the fans must have given him a huge boost.I said before the game that I would be happy at this stage, just to see glimpses of what he could do. I think he delivered that. His passing was mixed admittedly, he played a great through ball down the left wing at one point but this was contrasted with a few sloppy passes that fell straight to the opposition.However, what impressed me most was his break up play. Despite not being fully fit, he did an excellent job in the defensive side of things, breaking up their attacks and stopping them playing. When he gave away the ball, he charged back and often won the ball back off the opposition player.Overall, a very promising return and over the coming weeks I hope to see him go from strength to strength.

Ramos Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I thought he played really well seen as he was out for so long. Was a little rusty as was to be expected but another 65 mins against Charlton in midweek will do him the world of good. We saw glimpses of his passing and he showed some great strength on the ball. I actually forgot how strong he was, he must of knocked players off the ball about six times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archram Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I'd thought he might be a bit tentative but I think we were more worried than him when he went in for a tackle!His determination and the medical team have done so well getting him back, I'm sure he'll be closely monitored as to how much he plays.

zaragozaram Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I´ve just looked this up and was geniunely surprised.Q. How many games did George play for us last season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomsdubs Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Just seeing glimpses of that quality we've been crying out for in that position al seasons, great and frustrating at the same time. We'd be clear at the top if he hadn't got injured.Not only brilliant defensively, making himself available for the ball and bringing it out from the back but also our best play maker alongside Hughes. Proper range of passing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rambalin Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Not sure he will start on Tuesday but the hour yesterday will have done him the world of good in regards to sharpening him up to first team speed.His passing will get better has he works with the new players more in training and matches.I bet Darren Bent is looking forward to it because the ball will be delivered into those runs he makes of the centre back instead of being held up.Got to be careful not to ask to much hence not sure about starting Tuesday but he is just going to get better and stronger and nobody then will be bullying us in midfield.
