Idrissa Gueye

[wainy]

Was poo tonight. Still an absolute beast though and we will miss him badly when he gets off for afcon

 

[AlE]

I'm going to go ahead and say it, that was by far his worst game for us (runs and hides)

I agree, but let's face it, he's set the bar very high for himself so far this season... And he wasn't the worst player on the pitch by a long way.

 

[B17BLG]

Unfortunately gave the ball away for Baines to give the free kick away. Out of interest how old is the lad?

 

[ToffeeTim]

Probably his worst game so far.

Move on.

[Mistertonblue]

Agreed.
Passing was poor, perhaps doing all Barry's running has finally caught up with him.

 

[Rugby Toffee]

Looked knackered tbh

 

[rochdaleblue]

First poor game of the season that the lad has had. Probably been our best player in 3/4 of the games this season, tonight he just wasn't at the races. Fatigue?

He's 27 years old.

 

[Prevenger17]

He'll have the odd bad game.

 

[Dozbik]

He'll have the odd bad game.

As opposed to our other players who will have the odd good game.

 

[MikeH72]

He was doing the job of two central midfielders, as he has been for most of the season. And people wonder why he looks knackered?

 

[jcgefc]

He worked hard and got around the pitch but he was far from his best tonight.

 

[Paul w]

He needs energy around him as well mate something we are lacking.

 

[Blue_Arsed_Fly]

Not a playmaker, which he's been forced to attempt while alongside Barry who's playing like he's wearing a deep sea diver suit. Even Makelele would be awful in this team for similar reasons. Play him as the sole DM to break up play and give a simple pass to a playmaker - McCarthy's similar in this aspect.
