Ademola Lookman

Prevenger17 · February 11, 2017

Played well today, looked a threat

Neiziro · February 11, 2017

We really need to get him in the game more.

ArtetaMoney · February 11, 2017

Fallover Lookman, why did he have slippers on today? Looks a talent but should have been subbed off 10 min before he was.

Don't agree, the second Lennon came on a draw was the best we could hope for.

I didn't say subbed off for Lennon, Holgate should have came on and the formation moved to 3-5-2. Lookman was ineffective for while before he came off. Lennon is awful when chasing a goal.

He's done amazingly well so far, but people have to remember he's 19, just a handful of games behind him, finding his feet in the Premier League. He has loads to learn. Today was a good lesson in how to deal with well organised defenders making their physical presence felt. Don't put too much on his shoulders too soon, and accept the fact that he's not going to play 90 minutes every game and suddenly fire us into 4th place.

He's going to be a cracking striker. On another day one of his chances today would have gone in.

He's been threw in at the deep end and it'll do him the world of good. Derby winner comin up.

Should of opened up his body and put that chance away with his right foot.

Saint Domingo · February 11, 2017

He's getting on the end of chances which is more than Lennon did when he came on.

Shouldn't just have buried it really

Did well today, maybe should of scored but give some credit to Boros keeper, 19 years old with about 200 hours od Premier League experience but watching him today he already seems to be finding his feet, all good!

argietoffee · February 12, 2017

I know he is a kid

I know the conditions were terrible

I know he is only starting to find his feet

but

I thought it was far too easy to push him off the ball vs Boro

He has a lot of upper body work to do yet.

When on the ball, he looks a real player though

Lennon is just awful.

He's a young, slender lad who has stepped up two tiers and thrown into the starting XI. I'm sure in the summer the fitness staff will work on it.

The same could also be said about his finishing; he got into great positions today and was unlucky that Valdés is an experience, quality stopper.

With more experience and extensive training he'll sharpen his finishing and I'm confident he'll score a fair share of goals next season.
