Key clubber Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 What’s happened to wingers hugging the touchline? McMinn , Micklewhite , Callaghan players who got at full backs. Today we have wingers who’s first instinct is to cut inside, crowd out an already clustered centre midfield . So many times yesterday it was crying out for a winger to get on the outside of his man , instead we run inside , straight into trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree with this Wilson one footed Waghorn one footed Josefzoon looks capable of going with right or left and can get to the by line and cross unlike the other two who have different strengths and weaknesses . Give the bloke a chance ffs Are we already back to this entitlement attitude that has obviously served us so well in recent seasons. Have a look at our clubs history in the last 30 years and calm down . We are about where we should be . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matlock Old Ram Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 How’s about we all make a New Years resolution to encourage our players no matter what rather than have go at them for the smallest mistake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coneheadjohn Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 If it was footballing Top Trumps Camara would be better slightly on straight line speed and his personal chant. But on everything else football related Zoon would be better I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many times yesterday it was crying out for a winger to get on the outside of his man , instead we run inside , straight into trouble. Interesting point. To an extent I see it as just how he game has evolved over the years. For me the game seems to be played in the central areas more than it used to be. There’s a whole heap of reasons for this from the technique of modern day players right through to stats dictating he percentages of where the game should be played..............you could write a very long thesis on this if anyone could be bothered. Maybe as the game evolves we will go back towards playing wingers. Who knows? Ironically the last player we had that came close to a touch line hugging winger is the much maligned Mo Camara and he wasn’t like an old fashioned winger he was just more of a winger than most modern day wide players. Before that then it would be Kevin Harper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YorkshireRam Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 4 hours ago, McLovin said: I joked about him being another Abdoul Camara when we signed him at the time, hope it’s not coming to bite me on the backside. He’s in poor form but I don’t think Lampard’s helped matters. When he was playing well at the start of the season, including when he absolutely embarrassed the Hull defenders, Lampard suddenly dropped him for no reason. He then came back against Sheffield Wednesday, did well and set up Marriott’s goal and then he was dropped yet again! If he plays, I’d prefer him on the right rather than the left as he would be able to stretch the game more. 1 ineffective game doesn't equate to being in bad form... form is measured over a period of more than singular game ?♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamNut Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 I watched him doing some keepy uppy in the warm up a few weeks back. he has got tremendous skill. And is a graduate of the Ajax academy. but he is very right footed, which is a real handicap when playing on the left. reminds me of dawkins rather than camara.

Poynton ram Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Am hoping he will get his confidence back and play like Albert Adomah at Villa who at times is unplayable (or certainly used to be when at Boro) In terms of wingers seem to recall Paul Simpson putting some great crosses in both at the BBG and Maine Road when he played for City Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Can't be arsed to read this. Save for yesterday when, he was played on the wrong wing, he's looked a handful to me. Folk have short memories, it seems. Still, another cracking scapegoat so not a total loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BramcoteRam84 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 He’s a lot better than Camara. He was poor yesterday but agree he probably needs a run of games. Needs to be played on the right hand side and play more as a winger. It doesn’t suit him cutting in. That said Franks got to think about his best team and right now flo jo isn’t in it.
