2024/25 Jesper Lindstrom

[Leylo]

Have been a big critic but has come on well recently hope it continues, still wouldn't pay 20 m probably half that if he keeps improving.

 

[Frosty1878]

Look at the difference when he went off, even when he's not scoring he puts a shift in and defensively he gives us a lot....
Probably too much as it reduces his attacking output

No surprise when it’s a 39 year old Ashley Young coming on, need more balance in the squad so weren’t relying on our wingers always having to come back to help.

If he was ill then why did he start?

Did he become ill during the game?

He seemed ok, was instrumental is the second goal with a wonderful pass

I don’t see anyone else in the squad capable of doing Lindstrom’s role on the right currently. Not in this setup. Hes doing a lot of the slog work. Harrison might have the conditioning but he doesn’t have the touch or pass. McNeil doesn’t have the speed and conditioning but can pick a pass. Ndiaye’s best qualities would be smothered with the defensive duties. Should we lose Lindstrom in this current set up, the best replacement would be a younger Coleman. I feel like that says a lot in of itself.

Moyes is probably happy with Lindstrom’s performances given the circumstances but whether he stays or goes depends on how Moyes sees him fitting in with a Coleman replacement that has to be brought in. The thing going for Lindstrom is that Moyes prefers inside players over wingers and prefers the width to come from the fullbacks. He better be dazzling Moyes in training or he’s not gonna stay.

He might not be Moyes’ pick but he rates him in the current club. Moving Jack over to the left has seen improvements in him and Lindstrom. It’s coming for Jesper.

 

[NathDogg]

Thought he took a sore one early on and that’s why he was subbed? His improvement since Dyche walked has been another bright spot for me.

Changed the game him going off for young, poor sub from Moyes, but you have to say his options are limited.

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

Everything changes for the better when we get Ndiaye and McNeil back. Just hold the line until then.

 

[SJB]

If he was ill then why did he start?

Because we're struggling for numbers and he's very committed. Works his socks off every game and the ovation he got when he was subbed was testament to this.

was it his decision to come off then?

he had a 15 minute break at half time, and then lasted 9 minutes in the second half before being subbed off

could we not have played alcaraz instead of him or brought on alcaraz instead?

Alcaraz couldn't play the role that Lindstrom does imo, looks like more of a "pulls the strings" type of player who needs to be in the middle, rather than one who puts a selfless shift in bombing up and down the flank and tracking back.

 

[salmon fingers]

Another loan might make sense - he's makes some really nice passes.

Another loan would be perfect as it would give us a opportunity to see if he gets better in a moyes system or becomes similar to jack Harrison

Id be interested in seeing Patterson there. He would be good defensively and I think he has the athletic ability to play the full length of the pitch and can cross. If he doesnt work there then he has no role.

He was struggling to breathe very early on, and was gasping for breath after he would go on a run. I said to people around me he must have a cold or something, this was then confirmed by Moyes in his post match.

Cheers for that, I didn’t notice him struggling or hear the past match comments.

We missed him when he went off, our shape was rounded after that.

 

[Vaughan]

lots of flak in here but he was instrumental to all our best play in the first half

if he was not ill, and stays on the pitch, we get a third and kill the game
