Ademola Lookman

Steady now.

He is a hazard alright .... oops wrong thread ... heads to oumar thread

Losing the ball is acceptable when you are trying risky passes that if they come off will split the defence or create something . I’m sick of watching everyone play easy , cowardly football. Like they’re scared to make a mistake , Bernard , siggy and lookman are the only ones that attempt these passes and losing the ball is going to happen more with these three than anyone else and I’m fine with that

It depends where you are on the pitch. Trying to play a high risk/high reward ball at the edge of the opposition's box? Great, go for it. At the edge of our box? Not so much. I'd agree that he has a habit of holding on to the ball a little too long in our half at the moment, but that's not uncommon in a player of his experience.

And tbf, a fair few times Lookman got knocked over were been given as fouls the other way.

I don’t think he does , he’s looking for a forward pass that’s different to most of our players. Better than gana default of whenever he wins the ball he looks for Pickford

On a side note, our free kicks by the halfway line are interesting. We always pass it back to the CB, who then passes it back to Pickford, who then slices it right or left to no one in particular. It’s a tactic as we do it virtually every time. Odd.

And we've done it for the last four years.

Infuriating!

Seen a few examples of his strength as well. He's tough considering his height.

I dunno why that's not a chance for Siggy or Digne now to get in a really good ball to the edge of the box??

Very composed last time out. The opposite of Walcott, even if he doesn't have the same explosive pace. Keeps his place for me, as does Bernard.

Second page for the lad who is going to score today?

Yawn... Point is he doesn't

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

Earned his place. Let's back him no matter what for the next few games and temper expectations. It's one good game so far.

Point is what? He doesn’t what? Look for forward passes?

When we had Cottee and Beardsley up front,Southall would always hoof it high straight down the middle,more often than not it would end up back in out half with the opposition on the attack.It's just the Everton way.
