What is very pleasing is Jurgen finally getting game time and proving his value to the team.

He wasn’t, but he’s been educated. That’s why he hasn’t had much of a run until now. The lad seems to have grasped the ‘CH way’ now. Top, top coaching and management I reckon.
On the bench mainly.

Sorry, but what you are saying is absolutely ridiculous.
I've watched them a few times, you're talking nonsense. He took his goal well. Had he made the same shot from the half-way line, he'd have been wide of the corner flag.Just watch the highlights
Good decision.

Sadly I missed the Arsenal game because of work commitments so didn't witness what I am assured was Locadia's man-of-the-match performance, but I saw the Everton game. I thought Locadia was okay but nothing more. I'm glad he scored, and pleased that he's giving the club some return on its investment, but I've yet to see what other are clearly (wishing to) see.
We were told when he arrived that he has pace, but I've never seen it and he certainly doesn't go past players the way Izquierdo can. At Bournemouth, he covered back as an afterthought or not at all, although he did better against Everton. Both his goals were opportunistic rather than anything he created himself.
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for him and for us that he's beginning to look like a player, although I wouldn't go further than that. I just think our collective relief at the fact that he now doesn't look like a complete waste of TB's money is causing one or two people to mistake him for Gareth Bale.

He doesn't look like he has pace because of his running style but he actually has. He drifts past people, he's not the speed merchant style like Jose but i reckon he isn't too much slower. He's much stronger and his passing is great, that back heel when defending in the second half was superb.
The pace he showed against Arsenal to win the ball before the defender and ease round the keeper was imo very quick.
Agreed. Rewatched some highlights, his passing/laying off really is excellent too - much more intelligent footballer than Knocky or Jose I think.

Indeed, Jose might have pace but his first touch is usually shocking.

From the extended highlights he looked very good yesterday, in particular his % of successful passes. Apart from the unnecessary free kick at the end from which Everton rattled the bar, I didn't see JL make a single error all match. He looks big too so the number 9 shirt really will fit him well. As for Florin Andone, he looks a real handful. Methinks these two are the way forward and will score a few each (>12) between now and the end of the season.

I think some of his passing is exquisite he is very strong and bustling gets stuck in and general team play in the 2 games he has been given game time has been excellent... 2 goals and not bullied off the ball shows what a good player he is given the chance
Quite simply he has been our most effective winger of the season. Not running past players and then failing to cross like Jose, but giving good balls, showing good movement and positioning, setting up players around him, and scoring 2 goals. Strong in hold up too. Works for me.
