I lost count of how many times it happened today and his mistakes will cost goals against better teams. He needs to learn how to keep the ball or he won’t be more than an average player. takes far too long on the ball most times which leads to him getting caught in dangerous areas. Great left peg but the inability to use the right is a worry for me. This leads to him turning back on himself too often and other teams read this very easily. Good prospect but far from being the playmaker we need in the middle . Playing next to Halliday doesn’t help the laddie as he is a waste of a jersey .

Strange how they can be so jaded having played so little football. Irving does try and find the killer pass but when you only play with 1 up front the options are limited. Definitely has the eye for a pass but do we have players that are on the same wavelength? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo in Yorkshire Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 My point was he needs more awareness, a number of passes were also short of pace.

Always seems willing. To me his biggest flaw is thinking he's the best player on the park. Gordon could have done better for two of the goals. Could our lack of energy in the first hour be down to our aging players...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RENE Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Cant believe some of the comments on here. His completion rate must have been around 80/90 per cent. He was our top player AGAIN. He needs to be signed up now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree, Much of the game passed him by today. Every time we have a bad game it’s every player except Irving’s fault because “at least he tried to make things happen” it was the same ****ing thing last season. Every player on the pitch today was equally culpable, Irving started the game and was part of the performance. He carries a 1/11th share of the blame which goes to every starter today. And the manager gets 11 shares because he set the whole show up. Having said all that, I still hope Irving gets signed, he has been very decent for us, we need to get 1 if not 2 quality athletes to play alongside him and support his growth. Really essential we do that. Center mid and Center half I would say are actually significantly bigger priorities than Center forward which seems to be the only thing Neilson is making noises about.
