BramcoteRam84 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 He’s brilliant. Everything the pace, power, trickery, end product, fitness, he can even defend, has a good football brain. People (partly as a stick to beat Warne with) have been criticising the move to wing back, I actually think he’s played really well there still showing he’s a threat while making important defensive contributions. At this early stage my top 3 for POTY are Mendez-Laing, Cashin and Wildsmith in that order. BarrowRam, DiggerB, Crewton and 3 others 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree……. hopefully our Head Coach realises this also. LeedsCityRam and RoyMac5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
europia Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 He's been very good and probably exceeded most fans expectations. A very skilful wide player who puts loads of effort in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ram1988 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 He has been immense for us this season. He certainly should play as a winger or wide foward and not a wing back though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 He's a high-level athlete playing at a level clearly below him. He looked athletic in the Premier League too, so shouldn't be too surprised. There are reasons that he's not playing at a higher level, off the pitch, but he looks focused at the moment. He's definitely in the conversation for the POTY along with Cashin. I'm also not against him playing in the RWB role as he isn't doing much, of any, defending. He's just picking up the ball deeper and getting us up the pitch - none are better at it in our team as he puts the defence on the back foot as soon as he gets the ball.

Ilsonram12 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Play him in a front three and we'll get the best out of him, stick him as RWB and you'll get less Not rocket science RoyMac5 and Ellafella 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underground Ram Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Tin man probably my favourite ever rams player (been going since 83). And NML does indeed remind me of Ted. Best player this season with Wildsmith and Cashin. There’s nothing like quality wing play in a game Ellafella 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s nothing like quality wing play in a game Funny thing is it's not really even his wing play that seems to result in an end product. The wing play causes havoc and helps get us behind the opposition, of course, but it's more when he moves into the middle of the pitch and can pass it rather than cross it that he makes a direct contribution to a goal. angieram, DiggerB and Ellafella 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKANorwichExile Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 He's got a touch of the Wanchope about him. If he doesn't know what his legs are gonna do next, the opponent doesn't have a clue! I'm not entirely sure he's even that quick, but he's so explosive and powerful it doesn't matter. Workrate alone is spectacular.
