[News] So, Swiss Andy

[Hampster Gull]

I'm just pointing out that it would be folly to be expecting goal scoring miracles when scrapping at the bottom of the best in the world, when the guy is 21 and has two PL sub appearances and 28 goals in the Swiss second division to his name. I would expect a few seasons of loans in the Championship. If he banged in 20+ at that level, then we'll take a look.

He's playing because there is nobody else.

Agreed, and he did a solid job

I thought he looked decent tonight, Arial threat, good link up play and never gave up with the amount of running he did.

Personally he should start against city as our outlet

Ignore the sitter, we obviously train for this as a club

I agree with your asesment with regards he should start the next match I don't think we will have much option

 

[neilbard]

Indeed. BURN him!


Oh, hang on

BURN? He's not a flaming left back.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

BURN? He's not a flaming left back.

He could be, if he caught fire

 

[portslade seagull]

Didn't think he looked that bad, give him the game against Newport

 

[Meade's Ball]

Hopefully he'll start against Newport.

The minutes (albeit against lower-level opposition) would do him good, I think.

Good advice i'd say.
Sprinted a lot in the half he had, but generally looked chaotic and ungainly. Has some work to do to get into the rhythm, and mature to know when and where to scarper.

Loved the energy

Has hardly played but contributed. That's enough for me.

Not gonna save our season though...

That miss after Webster’s header hit the bar was terrible. We need someone to put these in. He definitely helped second half but he doesn’t look quick or that strong and that finish doesn’t feel me with massive hope. Great tackle against Traore mind. He’s a better forward than Jahanbaksh or Macallister though isn’t he Potter. Thanks again for that forward line V Arsenal.

You know what the fellow said – in Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace – and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.”

 

[BrianWade4]

Certainly a better option than the freak show we had up front against Arsenal

If Pooter is stupid enough to rest Welbeck, Connolly, Maupay and Trossard again (looks even crazier written down) then start with Swiss Andy up front...

This.

That freak show up front against Arsenal made no sense

Not sure the result today made up for the Arsenal team selection decisions

What Pooter did was disgusting. A shameful act. Arsenal were there for the taking

 

[R. Slicker]

He did enough to unsettle their defence with his energy, did have 2 gilt edged chances which he didn't take. Deserves more time.

Loved the energy

There were a number of posts on the match post that were slating the players for a lack of effort and interest well Swiss Andi came on and clearly gave a toss!

We were three one down when he came on and although he was not solely responsible he was involved in the penalty very early on which then gave us the momentum to continue

He’s had far less time than the other available strikers but already getting the same grief from some parties

Give him a run, he’ll score goals

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Seems very similar to Peter Gwargis Obviously has talent, but the same consistency issues attached to age

 

[Moshe Gariani]

It was a bold decision to play him after he was written off against Sheffield United.

He did all right but maybe a bit of a fairy. He needs to do some work with the conditioner coach.

 

[blue-shifted]

One for the future.

We're in deep s*** . Right now.

We need someone up there who scores from five yards and will take a snap shot when in space in the box

Helping a young man learn his trade isn't a luxury we can current afford

Positive running, but we need more

 

[Blackadder]

At first, I thought "No, he's not up to it" but as the game went on I warmed to him.

It was good that Connolly and Maupay both scored (for some reason I KNEW Neil would score that pen). If Zeqiri can get a goal soon, I think he will be a good addition to the squad.

 

[Doonhamer7]

Looked enthusiastic, lots of running, but way out of premier league standard at present needs a loan out to Championship to get toughened up.
