[Albion] Undav

[Icy Gull]

Give him a couple of games over Welbeck who is worse than Maupay at goal scoring

 

[BadFish]

You got to be kidding me, like I would have known that?? A juvenile comment responding back to another juvenile comment. That’s all it is. Don’t play that game mate

You know now though don't you?

Have some balls and a little grace and apologise for your crass moronic comment.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Some of the comments are a bit harsh. He contributed to a goal at Wolves last week and hasn't been given many minutes.

But from what he's shown so far, he's not good enough to be a regular PL player.

A loan move could be beneficial in Jan but then we would need to bring in another striker, which is easier said than done.

I absolutely agree. There is no way anyone can judge a player on just a few minutes of playing time here, and a few minutes there. To make any kind of accurate assessment he needs to play a few full games before we see what he is really capable of.

Yes Undav was poor today and showed very little movement or pace, but then again nor did anyone else..

 

[Mancgull]

I expect the coaching team have a better idea of Unduv's capability from training sessions than time on the pitch, which he's had limited time on.
Would be harsh to judge him on today's game as once ahead, Villa put all men behind the ball and wasted time.
However, he does seem to have rather limited mobility.

Agreed. He didn’t look too bad at FGR (quality of opposition accepted but the only decent runout he’s had so far)…..movement was pretty good. He does look a bit…erm……chunky (I know, pots and kettles etc ) for a PL footballer but assume the S&C team are happy with his numbers

Needs a lot more minutes but not sure when that’s likely to happen

 

[Terry Butcher Tribute Act]

Don't think this is a data signing !!

He was signed cos he scored a bucket load in a reasonable league and we had the option to buy and was worth a punt.

Why do you think USG signed him...

 

[ManOfSussex]

If you're playing in Belgium at 25 there's a reason. You can see it every time he comes on.

 

[warmleyseagull]

He was crap at FGR bar a good goal; maybe follow Locadia

Exactly, hard to judge him when we didn't create any chances for our front players.

I thought it was to replace Dante Vanzeir when Vanzeir came to Brighton. Not a direct replacement, maybe, but I did think Vanzeir was the one we were really after!

 

[maltaseagull]

He clearly can’t keep up with the pace of the game.
I wonder if he’s been sidelined by successive managers because of poor fitness more than technique.

Continually in an offside position that would rule out any possible goals scored.

 

[Rookie]

unfortunately he seems a few yards off premier league pace. Whether that can be put right in training is another question but based on what we have seen so far I’d be surprised if a January move doesn’t happen (loan or perm)

True, but better today……however rendered irrelevant as barely a ball came his way anyway

Think the reason he’s only played a few min here and there tells you all you need to know

 

[Pavilionaire]

So far he's done a damn good impersonation of Maupay during his sulky barren spell.

Think he has mainly been invisible, which is not really a word I would use about Maupay.

 

[NorthstandRacoon]

Did he even touch the ball? He is so so bad. Doesn’t even look interested. Please offload in January.

Can we offload you??

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Loan him out to Belgium.

 

[Blue3]

You don’t think fans should be able to criticise players ? Okkk

No I did not say that

Undav and Vanzeir both joined USG at the same time (2020).

There were no solid rumours of us buying Vanzeir, just fans (me included) seeing how well he was doing at USG, to the extent he got a Belgium cap, and. putting 2+2 together. Possible reason we didn’t go for him is that he’s quite similar to Trossard as opposed to an out-and-out goal scorer. He’s still at USG and doing very well so wouldn’t surprise me if there’s interest from other teams next summer.
