Katie Borkins 1 Posted October 3, 2015 But he has to score three times as we won''t win a game with less than three goals... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kick it off 1,952 Posted October 3, 2015 [quote user="Alex "]Well actually... Mbo-bloody-CAN-i![/quote]Thought he was brilliant today. Changed the game when he came on. Unlucky not to get a second with the header.The most telling thing for me was that the stats came up on the stream on 80mins. In 17 mins, Mbokani had more shots that any other player in a yellow shirt had managed in the 80. He''ll score goals at this level. Took his goal beautifully too.

Jerome certainly wasn''t poor today, unlike a few in our midfield who had uncharacteristic shockers (Mr''s Howson & Tetty)However - if Jerome finishes his chance after 3 mins - as tricky as it was - it''s a different game. he needs to be finishing those in this league, or at least working the ''keeper.

Jerome was incredibly isolated and his lack of product was the result of poor service and being a yellow island in their half. Looked much better when he had Mbokani up top and Redmond supporting. There were few decent performances before 65 today, Tettey and Howson were poor, Hoolahan couldn''t keep hold of the ball, Whittaker was poor, Bassong wasn''t great, Brady wasn''t great and his delivery was awful from corners, Jarvis wasn''t even on the pitch was he? Absolutely anonymous today. Thought only players who played OK or better were Martin (and I''m not his biggest fan, but he was OK today), Ruddy and Jerome.

kick it off 1,952 Posted October 3, 2015 Should add, that yes, he needs to be putting those kind of chances on target at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Syteanric 1 Posted October 3, 2015 I got slated a few weeks back for saying Jerome is a poor premiership player but excellent at championship level..his record in the top flight isn''t the best.Mbokani has looked sharp in all the games he''s played, if a little bit "arms and legs". by all accounts he did well today, lets hope he features more in 2 weeks.

Daz Sparks 1,152 Posted October 3, 2015 Mbokani got what he deserved today, he is strong, skillful and hard working, I think that there is still a little more understanding with his teammates to come, and when it does he will put plenty more away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruthers1 0 Posted October 3, 2015 What a load of p*ss and wind merchants you lot are!!One early goal means nothing (just ask RvW) and I stand by my original assessment that he will NOT be the answer to our striking department''s woefully short goal ratio return.2 goals from 8 games is nowhere near a good enough return to keep us in this division. That''s what you happy clapping cnuts should be concentrating on tonight. Talk about clutching at straws! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes one goal doesn''t make him a world-beater, but he''s made a decent start to his NCFC career and ha a ratio of 1 goal every 2 games across his career. I''ve seen nothing that makes me think he can''t score goals in the Prem. He completely changed the game today and was unlucky not to score a 2nd (when he hit the underside of the bar). Calling everyone a cnut for no apparent reason just betrays the fact that not only are you a troll, you''re also an odious little bellend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If wed only kept Howie.. 3 Posted October 4, 2015 OP.. you are pathetic, sad man.. and just a bit thick..2 goals from 8 games?7 games and 30 mins were without Mbokani... so i don''t really see your point.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,533 Posted October 4, 2015 Let''s have no talk of bans. You all know you''d miss him if he wasn''t here. Just like dear old Norris in Corrie, it''s a poorer show without him.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlands Yellow 3,980 Posted October 4, 2015 I work in mental health and Master Smudger definitely has issues . What meds are you on ? Diazepam , lorazepam or zopiclone. if you have never touched any of those then I''m in the wrong job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIL 1010 4,744 Posted November 7, 2015 [quote user="ruthers1"]Seen enough tonight to know we''ve brought in yet another dud striker.[/quote]Still think the same Smudger ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruthers1 0 Posted November 8, 2015 Not sure what Smudger thinks about it, don''t really care. I haven''t changed my mind though - he was brought in to score goals and so far Lafferty''s matching him in that department despite being on the pitch for a fraction of the time Mbokant has.

Fiery Zac 1,066 Posted November 8, 2015 Yeh it''s all based on goals. Let''s not use our eyes to judge a performance as then the OP really would look stupid.Also, scoring in the 85th min with the oppo chasing the game and leaving gaps (in a cup game) is not comparable to scoring when 2-0 down and struggling to get any foothold in the game.Mbokani has started really well....not going to give any credit?
