[Albion] Leandro Trossard SIGNS ON A FOUR-YEAR DEAL

[Jimmy Grimble]

Has anyone got the stats on his goals in winter against goals in spring/summer/early Autumn?

5 / 25 goals with the clocks back

 

[JBizzle]

So... nothing has changed? Some no-mark on twitter said something and now we're engineering attitude issues to make the loss more acceptable?

He went to the world cup one player, and came back another. Whether his confidence is shot from a poor Belgium showing or he has started to believe his agents hype, I don't know.....
I wouldn't be surprised to see him on the bench tonight, he currently looks 'out of sorts'

He absolutely should be on the bench. Ferguson/Welbeck should be leading the line, and on current form he is not as good as March or Mitoma for a position out wide.

Might do him some good, phsically and mentally, to have a rest as well.

Being coached by that fraud Martinez for a month will probably do that. If ever a coach took wine and turned it into water it was him.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

I think his best position is as the central player behind Welbeck, in a number ten role if you will. Maybe if Lallana gets a rest tonight and Ferguson starts he could get a run-out there at Goodison. But for all that we've been saying he doesn't like the lone striker role, he did pretty well there against Chelsea ...

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

Makes sense, not sure it will help his apparent ‘attitude’ at the moment but need to protect his value. Can see him going in the summer regardless , Bissouma style

What attitude ? he is just going through a quite spell, it is what he and most players do.
He's a grown man and not stupid, I doubt he will have the hump because we take out the extra year option, he signed the last contract and would not have if he was not happy with it or know the consequences.

Nothing to see here, he ain't going nowhere this winter, and I doubt they will be queuing up in the summer either, unless he wants to show what he can do, and even then it is win for both club and player.

 

[Giraffe]

For whatever reason Tross struggles when its colder

Make of this what you will. 21 goals in the March to October period. 5 in the sort of winter we have now.

In the context of this topic, the main thing I make of this is that it would be a lot easier to make sense of if the totals were by month rather than by year.
On the other hand, at least he's improving year on year. Disappointing he didn't continue to double the goals scored each year though.

Not really. He’s had these quieter spells before.

 

[Eric Youngs Contact Lens]

He has always had these "spells" so can't see anything really unusual here. I think this is why he may not be the transfer target others seem sure he is. He's a great player for us (and I love him) , but not the answer for other "bigger clubs" unless they are looking to add more depth rather than first 11.

well yes because he is a player good enough to punish defences when they make mistakes, like chelsea did (specifically Silva for both of Leo's big chances). still struggles against large, strong centre halfs when he's up there on his own

 

[JamesAndTheGiantHead]

I’m convinced he’s a time-travelling Victorian chimney sweep with a pretty nasty case of consumption, which the cold weather exacerbates.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Managed to miraculously stop sulking and raise his game when the chance of a World Cup place was up for grabs. Maybe he'll do the same during the January transfer window? The comedown in February if he's still here could be brutal tho

 

[Swansman]

Think a transfer outside the PL would be the most likely in the summer. Atletico/Milan/Inter/Juventus/Sevilla maybe.

Needs to rise above the WC disappointment and continue to produce the goods for his current employer for the second half of the season for that to happen tho eh?

 

[Marshy]

Trossard should be playing behind the front man. Get him in the game as much as possible. Very good player.

Yeah needs to step up a bit... but think he will

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

I'm a big fan of Trossard. When he plays well we are a very dangerous side. Until the arrival of Mitoma he was the only genuine game changer we've had in the premier league.

I also think there's a decent chance he'll sign a new contract in the summer.
