Guest Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Theo has a worst first touch for a start, that's just in our team. You have got a hidden agenda against Tyson, which is fair enough, you may be proved right, but he played well sat and gave us more attacking options than we have seen for a while. That probably didn't come across in the match centre though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JW- Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I think tyson is a poor mans adebayor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds Ram Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I don't think tyson was very good, he has had a long time off though. He didn't look as fast as he used to in my opinion, he did put a good ball in and had a decent shot which was saved but he didn't look anything special.He does need time after he has been out though.

Ambitious Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 There was absolutely nothing wrong with Tysons first touch, I was expecting a lot worse to be honest, his strength was impressive as was his movement, should of scored but i'm sure it will come. He does look like he has something about him though, and given the game time upfront he'll score goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JW- Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Well for saying he 'didn't play that well' he got a really good ovation from the fans when he came off. I hope he stays fit now as the forest game is approaching fast... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We knew he wasn't going to last the game, and I accepted his first touch was bad, but when it came to it, it wasn't it looked good, Tyson isn't a 'tidy' player, he is effective though.. he will cause problems with his movement, strength and pace all day long, it also gave us an out ball which we nearly got lucky with once or twice.

I knew tyson wasn't going to last the entire game, I think everyone knew that. He has a decent bit of strength and his pace is an asset, but he seems to have lost a yard of pace to me. I didn't think he did all that well yesterday, a 6/10 performance, it was ok but not great which is reasonable for a player who has been out for so long. Let's wait and see him play when properly fit to judge him on whether he is good or bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave him an 8/10.. thought it was a good debut, looked a constant threat, wish we didn't have to take him off but it was bound to happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asanovic Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I thought he did really well. He's still got pace, and he was a threat to Leeds. Watched the chance again and don't think it was a 'sitter' - he could have done better, but he's rusty, as anyone would be after so long out. The balance between Tyson's pace and Ball's first touch worked well. If nothing else it's great to have him back as another option. His first touch was good, I thought - certainly compared to Robinson, who played like he did when he first joined us on boxing day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Robinson was unlucky when he got one, he has improve massively since joining, he has the confidence to get the ball to feet, and dribble past players rather than sprinting past them, thought that little turn when he got through was good, just unlucky it didn't come off, good defending from the leeds players.

Asanovic Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 in fairness asanovic I have a good touch compared to theo robinson. He's improved alot though mate. Some of the goals he scored this season he wouldn't have scored last season, he's obviously worked on his touch and I think most would agree he's a better player now than when we initially got him on loan. Just didn't do well the other day, that's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIMBAUD Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Let's be careful with theo - there are plenty who are still digesting their humble pie after he went on his 'goal machine' run.

He is better than when he started but he is still not good with the ball, however that doesn't matter as long as he gets in the positions to bang in the goals.

Ambitious Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I thought we'd signed a complete pup, after a less than impressive loan spell and I think that when we signed him, we got him cheaper than anticipated, in the DET it was announced as a 'nominal fee' and with 6 goals this season, I don't think we can argue, not only that, he looks a completely different player, seems to keep improving and that's what you want in a young player, which he still is!
