Ram a lamb a ding dong Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Anyone else think that he's looking leggy. First season he has played this many games since he was 17 and it looks like its caught up with him. I wouldnt be adverse to stucking Baird in for a few games and tell the rest of them to push up 20 yards. admittedly great goal against MUFC but overall he looks off the pace. Agree?

jimbobram Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I wouldn't stick Baird in anywhere unless its really needed. Johnson seems to like sitting back there so he can do it if George needs resting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nottingram Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Thought he played well the other night. Even though we're used to him putting in majestic performances I find if I don't notice what he's doing too much then he's done well. We miss his through balls though, don't know if Clement has stopped it but in his loan spell we must've scored 5 or so goals from them, be it directly as an assist or indirectly.

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I would start him & play him for as long as he is effective, like everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if he ruptured both ACLs during the game and couldn't walk... He'd STILL be by far our best player... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashz09 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 IMO he's being marked. Clement said it last game. Thornes been saying it for a while he's being man marked and needs to learn how to deal with it. That's the only reason if your the other team the 1st thing u do is man mark Thorne don't let him have the ball and you have a good chance of beating us.

RamNut Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 He's too deep and he his playing too many safe passes. i don't think we spent £2.5m simply to help move the ball from shackell to warnock and vice versa. When he arrived he just took over the central midfield. thats the george we want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fellaini was always looking for him when we played United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly...no one is allowed to say that maybe paying 3.5 million for a player who couldn't get into a very poor West Brom team might have been too much or that he might not be playing too well at all and that he looks exhausted..... how dare anyone say anything like that?

Maybe the extra Forest fans around here are having an influence? I haven't seen £3.5mil quoted once, it's always been anywhere between £2m-£2.5mil. Even if it were £3.5mil we've hardly got a bad deal when you look at what players are going for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you absolutely can't say that we paid 3.5 million for him as the fee was £2m from all accounts... Which is £4m less than Johnson... And I have no problem paying £6m for Johnson... Sooooooo Thorne still seems like a good buy for me... Also I think the issue is IF Thorners/Thornsey/The Thornonator HAS been playing worse than usual... He's STILL 10x better than most of the other players at their best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
