Watched him loads for Leeds u21s and he was like that loads. None stop workrate and chases everything, seems to have improved tactically recently - movement been better - and his finishing has improved
I’d be lying if I said I knew much about him but the way he carried himself stood out not sure if he scored or not?
 
Fuming me I had that £20m spent on new additions :emoticon-0102-bigsm

Just kidding but I hope we nail him down to a position this season and let him develop there. He’s not a striker for me like I still think he’d make a great 8 but he won’t get the chance to play there while Neil is here.
Agree don’t think he has the pace to be top striker

Who Jobe? The lad seems to get judged as a fully developed 26 - 28 year old player instead of the 18 year old in his first full season as a pro he is (by some)!
Yeah absolutely. Ridiculous. One comment from a non safc fan saying “not good enough he’ll never have another chance at a big club” because we thought he needed a rest!”

Funny that Jude was nowhere near the player he is now at Jobe’s age! As you say, jusged as a fully fledged pro, or at his brother’s level! Some of our fans are utterly thick as ****!!

I have watched Jude for England and there are so many physical similarities. Their physique, the way they run, how they turn, the way they use their body.

I think we would be mad to sell. His potential value, in my opinion, is far greater than Clarkes for example. If he plays 30 odd games this year, scores another 6-8 goals from a midfield poisiton he will be £40m next season. The name is worth an extra 20% alone because the physical attributea are all there.

Has been since they took over, it just takes a little time for the fruits to ripen and of course there will always be bumps in the road, the key is to keep your eye on the medium to long term strategy and remember that if we lose a game or two, it doesn't mean we should throw everything in the skip. Delayed gratification, some are capable, some aren't.

Almost but not entirely unrelated- crows are capable of deferred gratification and in Japan they use bread as bait to catch fish.

Not sure if Jobe is missing some power but that may land as his physique changes.
