Player Watch Player Watch: Dejan Kulusevski

[Hakkz]

People are constantly using Mourinho as an excuse as soon as their precious favourite player is doing badly, blaming that he was shackled and forced to give up on football. Kulusevski is 21, he has been playing under the boring turd that is Allegri, being put in a bunch of different positions. Give him some fucking time to find his feet. Pathetic people.

Looks like some folk have found their new scapegoat, christ at least give the kid some time to settle

Not impressed at all. Seems like we got exactly what the laughing Juve fans were describing when they got rid of him.

Southampton were pressing high for the whole game and had to go for it after we scored. If we'd brought on Bergwijn's pace instead of this guy to pin them back / run in behind the higher line then I'm sure we'd have 3 more points.

So you're blaming him for conceding 2 goals? Apart from Leicester when has Bergwijn done anything specila, and he's had 2 years, not 30 minutes.

State of some fans on here. He’s played what, 30 mins for us? Give the guy a break. He was never sold to us as being a pacey winger or speed demon .

Based on what? After stevies shocking display against Brighton he was lucky to get some minutes today.

Strongly agree and you can see why Conte goes with Moura because of his pace. Moura was disappointing yesterday but he does attack opposition defences and makes them commit themselves to tackles and fouls.

I have plenty of complaints to take up with our defenders from last night. But when 2-1 up - Southampton had to push forward. That's the time to get pace on the pitch in attack to pin them back because they know you have an outlet to run in behind or counter if they get caught out. Instead we brought on a guy that moves at snails pace that gave the ball away a few times - naturally that invited pressure.

You know - it might just have worked out if he'd been asked to pack the central midfield as a Fellaini type aggressive AM, but I can't think of any wingers off the top of my head with his profile that have ever been successful in the Prem

Moura made amazing reverse pass to hojberg who slid bednarek in?

 

[mdharris]

He’s also a young lad. There’s a reason he has played a lot of games for Juventus, majority of which when he was younger than 21. Let’s give him time.

 

[HildoSpur]

Some of the posts in here are a fucking joke. The kid has hardly kicked a ball for us yet.

 

[Wsussexspur]

predictable reaction to his disappointing cameo last night! I kind of feel some fans are so desperate for a player to fail that given the slightest opportunity to moan they will! To be fair could be seen by some as but hypercritical coming from me which I appreciate.



But I mean He is 21 years old and new to the league played less than 30 minutes for us. Of course it’s going to take him time to adapt. Give the guy a chance before writing him off!

 

[Danny1]

The posts in here are pathetic and highlight the modern “fan”.

This young kid needs time to integrate into the team and the league. Give him time.

 

[Ghost Hardware]

Looks an odd signing. Incredibly slow and looked totally lost with his crossing opportunity on his right foot. Early days.

The thing that baffles me a little is why we loaned out Gil and loaned in Kule. I said as much previously when we first signed him. Anyone who has watched Kulu regularly would know he’s really not that further developed then Gil and has also stagnated somewhat over the last two seasons. One most certainly can’t write him off after 20/30 odd mins of football tho so hopefully he gets back to his best eventually.

It's the same after every defeat now. Pathetic isn't it.

How about the many other attacking moves Moura spoilt with his shockingly bad passing/crossing ?

 

[GutBucket]

Thought his passing around the box was good. Need to see few full games from him to judge him better.

 

[Nodutus]

Absolutely pathetic, unbelievable and toxic posts in here. Just can’t take you seriously. Wow…

 

[Capocrimini]

Clearly the only one who thought he looked positive. Both him and Bentancur looked purposeful with their passing and dribbling. Kulusevskis didn't come off so well but let's give him time.

Yesterday's problem was again brain farts in our defence, and stage fright in midfield.

 

[he is you know!]

No idea why it needs to be explained but, just because we bought him after not getting Diaz, does not mean they are the same type of player!
