Player Watch Player Watch: Giovani Lo Celso

[werty]

Suspect it'll be missed in all the mayhem of the game but I liked what I saw of Lo Celso - tenacious, skillfull and willing to fight a bit. Hopefully we now see much more of him - can he play instead of Eriksen?

He was worse than Eriksen, which is saying something.

Huh?!

He was toilet the entire time . Not an easy game to play in with a team playing poorly

But no way, as bad as the rest of the attack today

 

[muppetman]

Fair enough, I thought he put a shift in, got in amongst it and tried hard - I'm trying really hard to be positive here people!!!!

 

[Strikeb4ck]

He was awful. As mentioned, wasn't an easy game to join and we were down a man, but still.

I don't think he has the pace to play out wide in this league. He's going to need to play in the middle or as a CAM between the lines.

Should have replaced Eriksen

We were down to ten men for about all but 5 mins of when he was on, imagine he’s just being told to fill the midfield and defend

Well seeing as their assist on the goal came from the man he was supposed to be marking, that's not promising.

TBF, I blame that more on Poch. We play our "wide" midfielders stupidly narrow, and ave done for his whole tenure.

Fair chance this team and situation will dent his confidence immediately. What a mess

If his mentality is that weak then he'll never make it at the top anyway.

 

[13VanDerBale13]

I said today when seeing the line up that surely he’ll start before the next international break & now that son is suspended even more so now !

He should start against Red Star but I'd be hesitant to put him in ahead of known commodities like Lucas and Lamela who have on the whole been pretty useful this season. If we want to put him in ahead of Eriksen or Dele, then sure.

 

[ClintEastwould]

He wasn’t terrible and he actually defended pretty well when the Everton crosses were coming into the box but he showed glimpses of class but couldn’t cope with the pace. He needs to start ASAP though.

I do wonder WTF him and Ndombele are thinking right now.

Poch sold them..... This?

Well they should be thinking I want to start and help turn around the team performance and results

I hope that too and that it's not 'Where's my agent?'

Not sure how you can judge him on this game alone...

 

[G Ron]

Ughhh that Chelsea wanker getting mentioned again.

Didn’t Hoddle both play for and manage Chelsea?

 

[agrdavidsfan]

Was dreadful was at fault for letting the cross in also for the equaliser

Ever played football before mate? It was a first time cross on the volley into the danger area, what could Lo Celso do?
