Upo 91 Posted November 30, 2021 I like Sargent a lot when he is without the ball and running towards our goal some distance away from their box. You want to cheer him tracking back. He is a peculiar player. I see him turn the tide in some matches and be out of place in others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But he can’t shoot, can’t cross, can’t head, has an awful touch and doesn’t make intelligent runs. On the right wing. What is Deano supposed to do with him? Yeah but apart from that.....

Nor me , but he did look like he knew what he wanted to do, sometimes it came off. Sargent tonight looked flustered, too eager , no control or precision.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sideshow Tim 110 Posted November 30, 2021 Works hard and won't score many. A poor man's Cameron Jerome for me but unfortunately we don't have many other options until January. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ged in the onion bag 854 Posted November 30, 2021 Some are unconvinced by Idah but he has goal instincts in him, is a handful and can finish but has never been given a run in the team, Sargent has come straight in and been given plenty of games.... suspect Idah would prove a much better option given that degree of opportunity.   Josh reminds me of Emule Heskey, lots of running and effort but lacks quality, technique and creativity ... its unlikely we can improve him to the level required and a wonder how they scouted him!  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You didn't expect him to score did you ?!! After a dozen matches it's obvious what he brings to the team - he's not a footballer ! When I see him bearing down on goal - my mind clicks to the next facet of play ! I certainly don't entertain any notion a goal will be scored. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I realise that injuries hampered him last year but he hasn't played anywhere near as much as he should. The problem with Sargent is that he's currently playing in a position which seems unnatural to him. He doesn't look comfortable running with the ball, and I don't expect him to find a defence splitting pass either. However, when Aarons would get forward and he would drift inside for a cross, he never seemed to be in a good place to attack the ball. Compare this to Idah for our goal, who had found himself in space at the back post for Gilmour to cross to, forcing the keeper to come out and punch.   Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sooty57 403 Posted November 30, 2021 No one can argue that he doesn't put a full shift in, but he just looks completely out of his depth at this level. His first touch is woeful, and usually results in him losing possession. I like the lad for his work ethic and sincerely hope it is just a lack of confidence, that will be helped with a goal and/or some good coaching, but I am yet to see much of a natural scoring ability.

Boris 56 Posted November 30, 2021 Surgent simply not look like forward and definitely not look like have goals on him. Also never look like him and Pukki have exchange passes or play as pair at all. Teemu play incredible amount of games lately for us and Finland and with his pressing game I not see how this man will keep play 85 90 min every round for us! Idah is hopeless and Sergent no goals and not treat at all to lead the line so we badly need to make something in this area in January . We was lucky today with missing our 2 key players to face Newcastle playing 85 min with man down, otherwise I not see how this approach can hurt Magpies on counter ...
