he 0 Posted December 14, 2015 Thought he had quite a good game and was unlucky not to score against Everton. But he has to get his hands off his hips all the time. There were many situations when he was off guard and could have got the ball had he been on alert. Can''t put your hands on the hips! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grefstad 0 Posted December 14, 2015 Was not awful, but hos reputation of "closing down" and "chasing lost caused" seems to be a bit of the mark. Takes too many breaks on the pitch, and is on his heels far to often. When Redmond won a header in the 2.half, Jerome would have been clean through if he trusted Tedmond to win it, and give himself a head start. But ge did not. Also other episodes were he was "not alert".Decent game, but that miss will haunt him for a while. Can''t believe Mbokani was not coming on after 70-75 mins with Everton looking tired and clearly settling for the draw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bradwell canary 109 Posted December 14, 2015 We owe him big time, without his goals we would not be in the PL.Having said that he has NEVER performed in the PL.A good Championship player, but we need far better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairy Kenneth 0 Posted December 14, 2015 Can''t believe Everton were tired after 70-75 minutes. They need to work on their fitness levels-their sports scientists need to sort themselves out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feedthewolf 4,846 Posted December 14, 2015 [quote user="grefstad"]Can''t believe Mbokani was not coming on after 70-75 mins with Everton looking tired and clearly settling for the draw.[/quote]Yeah, when they brought Gibson on for Barkley there was an opportunity for us to press home the advantage, but instead we brought Howson on for Hoolahan (who was exhausted and had to come off, but why not for a striker?), and left Mbokani sitting on the bench for 90 minutes despite us still having a substitution available. Strange.Still, the substitution at half time worked well, so we should cut AN some slack for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Barclay seats 4849 the 3rd 0 Posted December 14, 2015 Subs were only made due to injury .Bennet being left out until then , and not bringing on mbokani for a cream crackered Jerome with 15 mins to go , yet again showed the weaknesses of AN .What on earth was he thinking dropping Ryan Bennet for Russell Martin in the first place ? Even MOTD were asking why was Bennet not on in the first half , seeing how he nullified Lukaku in the second. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
damn that Ralph Coates! 47 Posted December 15, 2015 on BT sport, Chris Sutton was not impressed by Jerome, calling him a striker who only played on the "back foot"... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

norfolkbroadslim 223 Posted December 15, 2015 Not sure what Mbokani''s doing wrong in training?Perhaps Alex has a superstition against players who''s names begin with an ''M''? At a push and through a massive mental struggle he can just about cope with having one ''M'' player (Martin) starting a game. I think this is proven by the fact that Mulumbu & Mbokani didn''t come on as subs and this was because Martin stayed on for the full game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crispy 4 Posted December 15, 2015 Pretty sure Alex is reluctant to play with 2 strikers towards the end of a game after the Newcastle shambles. He''s been allot more calculated with his risks since. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
