gregzy2k7 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Thought he looked really good tbh on Hearts TV, works hard, very energetic and quite quick too, constantly causing united problems on the right hand side, was probably one of our best players in the first half, still a little bit rusty with his final ball but maybe because he hasn't played first team football in a while? Really hope there's nothing in him coming off but cramp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Rabbit Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Some nice touches and good pressing. He’s not a winger and comes inside a little more which might be a benefit as Boyce isn’t isolated as much. He’s not scared to take a player on and managed to get a cross in on a few occasions where others would have booted the ball out of play. Feel he can be a big player and it’s good that we’ve got the international break to work with the new signings and hopefully allow them to work with each other.

CostaJambo Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Clearly a player in there. A wee bit rusty but plenty of desire and a few good touches despite playing very wide. Could be a great player for us if Robbie figures out how to play him to his strengths to suit him and Boycie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackOfTheNet Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Hopefully he’ll be okay for the Hibs game. For me it needs to be Ginnelly and Woodburn against them as GMS may not be up to pace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s gonna be difficult I fear. Boyce is slower than treacle. Woodburn would have to slow his own game down to give Boyce a chance to catch up. Boyce needs to stop thinking about everything and who to knock it back to and just shoot the ball at goal. He’ll score goals for us but will always frustrate every game.

south morocco Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Thing is with GMS, he can be anonymous for most of the game yet produce a moment of magic to turn the game. Not saying that happened today but you get the drift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Buck Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I thought he looked a bit rusty with some of his passes and touches. But full of energy, and presses high and gets stuck in. Sure Klopp will have drilled that in to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could see in the first half he has skills and has been coached by good coaches. Second half even before the muscle issue he was quieter. But he’s the real deal and will be even better with two weeks getting to know his team mates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying GMS is a bad player, but the only way he beats a guy these days is with a trick. Woodburn evidently has pace GMS doesn’t have so he’ll be well within the pace of a frenetic derby, but more importantly he’s on loan from one club and manager that is probably the most synonymous with high pressing and he showed some of that today - and that’s going to be a vital attribute in the derby I feel.
