Aaron Lennon ( On Loan January 2015 )

[bitter-no-better]

What I like about him is the way he stretches teams with his pace. Not the best crosser of the Ball but Bobby has realised this by playing him much more central. His pace creates more space for the other attacking players. Something we have missed badly all season.

Good point this. Cant recall him coming inside frequently for spurs. But for us he does and has seen pens and chances created. Think him and coleman will strike up a decent partnership next season if he stays

I've loved this. Never pictured him doing it before we signed him, but he's made some really fantastic runs with the ball into the middle.

Coleman clearly loves having him there too. Could end up being like Pienaar/Baines, except a bit less clever and a bit more explosive.

people have been saying it's what we've been missing all season and they've been right. delafeou didn't have much of an end product, but we created loads of chances because of his pace. we need a couple like that this summer imo.

Lennon needs a more creative centre back than Coleman to play with

Coleman is only useful whilst running with the ball, could see on Saturday Lennon was making runs whilst Coleman just paused and ended up passing it back

Whhaattt??

from what I have seen, I don't think many players double or treble Aaron lennon's valuation could have turned our season around better than the spurs lad has done. I hope we get him in the summer.

Everyone was so negative about him but to me he always looked like a player whpo may have gone a bit stale. I personally think he is a must for the summer. He will probably cost £7m plus but I think hes showed hes worth that.

 

[hetion]

He slots into the team like a dream. He pulls his weight. He's experienced. He likes it here. He's cheap.

What's not to like?

 

[SNova]

Lennon actually kept stopping his run and stood right next to Coleman on a number of occasions.

Sorry, Right back*

The reported £7m fee?

The reported £7m fee?

Is that seen as a lot? I think if we get him for that its very good business.

In a day and age when you are quoted £14m for Jordan Rhodes in the championship I think £7m is a snip personally.

To be honest he is starting to look more and more worth it. But would have paid £7m for him in Janurary? I don't think I would have.

Just seems a lot when we have a lot of other areas to sort out in the team, and probably not a lot of cash.

The reported £7m fee?

Thats nothing in football these days.


*realizes what club im talking about

Not six or seven million - yes he has been fantastic, but so was Barry last season.
