Aaron Lennon

[gaino92]

It must be really hard coming into the side right now though.

"come on lads, lets get into the...oh, not bothered eh?"

Our general malaise is infectious.

Or if others see him and Bolasie pressing they might think, ohh that's what he wants us to do. Even if it meant Barkley helped pressing it would have given everyone a lift, Lennon just come in and fell in to the crap 2nd winger role.

Well

He did too mate. Didn't make much of a difference sadly.

One of the few players last week who wasn't utter mince

He was decidedly average. But so were a lot of others so no real difference.

I DON'T LIKE HIM SO IF HE DOES ANYTHING GOOD ITS A FLUKE

Oh no, actually you're right, he did score a perfectly good goal. I was confusing it with Lukaku's goal where he claimed he got the slightest of touches on it. No need to write like a little bish though, is there?

Butters in lack of awareness of their own posting history shocker

I like Aaron Lennon BUT, last night on the radio, Andrei Kanchelskis said that if he'd have played 70 mins as a winger and didn't cross the ball, Joe Royle and Duncan Ferguson would've killed him.

Hard to argue with that, especially from him.

We must have been watching a different game, as personally I thought he was pretty poor due to having no output or influence on the game.

 

[BigBlueConk]

He spent a long time at Spurs as a squad player. Doing the same here.
Has his moments, but not good enough for our expectations.

And our expectations are a real problem!

Sorry Mikey, I like Lennon but I didn't think he was up to much last week.

pretty much this. When he came and was 'playing for a contract' he was all go, Baines even remarked on it - showed us up a bit, he said.

Just shows how easy it is to fall into 'bad habits' and peer pressure...especially when you have a contract in your back pocket

and we've all heard how easy bad habits are to - and how much harder it is to break them...and we watch the results every week.

 

[cronullasharks]

Guess as well its hard for players to get into any semblance of form when they're in and out of the team constantly which he, geri and kev are. Maybe its time to just stick with one of them for a few games.

Aaron fits right in to our current set up, average and inconsistent.

Very harsh, hes very consistent, he gives 7/10 every game, hes a hard worker who gives his all, just sadly a bit limited with regards a final product, if Lukaku even gave 10% of what Lennon does we would be 5 points clear by now.
