He's not great, i get that. There must be a player in there somewhere though. We aren't going to see it but I wouldn't bet against him carving a career somewhere. On Hemir, I think potentially this kid could be huge for us. Not this season but he has all the tools to be very good. He's an absolute beast, powerful shot, has good feet and gets himself into good positions. It's a big ask coming over and playing at this level but there have been signs hes adjusting
That's why he's going to have a good career. Nowt wrong with being a bellend on field. As soon as you cross white line you have to go into animal mode.
He was both times, a niggly little ****er and annoyed the **** out of me both matches. As another poster has said nothing wrong with being like that on the pitch really, up to the ref to stop him. He got away with loads today before he got booked! He puts himself about and niggles away at players. I was surprised how he celebrated at the SOL was almost like the fans never rated him and gave him **** not that he ****ed off to Arsenal as a kid! Those that know his family I assume he would return to SAFC if the chance came?
I think I echoed this not long after he joined. He seems to play like he deserves better than us! Utterly pointless! Rusyn, from minute 1, effort, drive, running, closing, determination. Just better in every aspect
Didn't watch all the match. Bits of second half due to problems at home. Wasn't impressed with what bits I did see like fannying about at the back and crap build up play. But was impressed with rusyn although think he's a second half player rather than a full match one, as he'd possibly burn himself out.
I think Rusyn would be fine to start, he's a natural grafter but he's savvy and experienced and wouldn't run around like a headless chicken tiring himself out. Even if he did need subbing late on that kind of high energy performance is infectious and would only benefit the team.
Yeah good point. He does run round when he comes on but maybe savvy enough to save some if he starts. He is a player I like to have in the team like o9, There was one or two I noticed strolling about today on the bits I watched. Can't understand lack of enthusiasm especially when your getting paid good money by a decent club with huge support.
Burstow was low energy and our whole CM had an off day, Neil tried but didn't have a good game and Jobe and Ekwah were both poor, apart from the run by Jobe which drew the defence away from Rusyn for his goal. To be fair I think a more measured press is part of Beale's tactics but we were lethargic as **** for most of the second half.
Comes across very confident can only be a good thing. People like that can be really helpful in a young group. I think Styles is similar.
Yeah he had very low intensity. Didn't switch up or press front the front. Was stuck in no mans land loads of times, didn't want to get behind to stretch it come short to link. When it did get to him, his touch was absolutely horrendous, not really seen one that and at this level. The difference when Rusyn came on was significant. Lifted the whole team and finally the Boro centre backs had to get off their sun loungers and started to flap. Don't want to see Burstow again personally. Hemir would have performed better yday. Rusyn starts and Hemir for the different option off the bench.
And mine....one of the most biased comentaries I've heard today....and,coming from Sky,that's saying something!
