Wilkins could shoot though.

Bournemouth

Good
5 decent passes
3 interceptions
1 run
1 turn & dribble
1 decent cross

Adam produced much more controlled football in 20 minutes than McKennie did in 70 mins

Has to start vs Citeh

Leon, the bar is so low for Leeds, that if you and me trot out for the first team and complete a three yard pass to each other, Radz will start a Mexican Wave in the ground and book us in for an open top bus parade :clap:

Fully agree

Says a lot really given Forshaw probably wouldn't start for most of the Championship

Think it says more about how poor Roca and McKennie have been than anything about Forshaw

I’d be very surprised if he didn’t start.

Solid, confident, comfortable on the ball and can make a tackle. Might just be what we need, especially at the Etihad.

Didn't put a foot wrong vs Bournemouth, his pirouette turn past two players was brilliant, I had to take a second look as I couldn't believe it was Forshaw :shock: the sort of quality you'd expect from Rutter.

Manchester City

Good
2 decent passes
2 interceptions
1 tackle

Bad
1 dribbled past
1 lost possession
1 lost his marker (marking fresh air for one of the goals)


As with all our players, lots or running around chasing shadows with precious little possession

Forshaw is the type of player we have that will suit Sam more than most of the others.

Speaks volumes that dunnit.

Newcastle

Good
6 interceptions
4 decent passes
4 tackles
1 block
1 run
1 cross

Bad
1 dribbled past

Excellent 45 minutes from Adam, that tackle in the dying minutes may have saved us a point

Must admit to having been impressed with him of late. Think it highlights how poor our recruitment in that area has been when a player who has barely kicked a ball in 3 years looks every bit as good as them if not better.

I honestly don't feel i've seen enough of him in all the years of him being here to form a solid opinion, always been in the treatment room, Bert tried to find a use for him that i didn't see enough of again before he got crocked, seems not the type to set the world on fire, more like a poormans James Milner or such, a squad player if you will, but again i just haven't seen enough of him coz he's never had a decent long spell in a run of games.

West Ham

Good
2 decent passes
2 interceptions
1 headed pass
1 run
1 cross

Bad
2 dribbled past
2 lost possession
2 lost his marker

West Ham's international midfielders, far too clever for our old-timer, not his fault he has been thrown in at this level

Spurs

Good
9 decent passes
4 interceptions
3 tackles
3 crosses
2 blocks
1 shot on target
1 close control skill
1 run
1 header pass

Bad
1 dribbled past
1 poor pass

Crazy to think a player we signed five years ago (now 31yo) was the best player on the park along with Wober & Rasmas

7.5/10

Forshaw has an offer from Saudi Arabia.

Made me chuckle as it says his creativity would be useful for us.

He has 3 assists for us . . . . .

Is there anyone the Saudi’s won’t take ?

Excellent for him and his family though.
