Ignoring the times I don’t as per

Don’t be negative. Sometimes he doesn’t. Classic you this is.

I said a few negative things about Sakamoto earlier in the season but he’s completely proved me wrong in recent weeks and again tonight. Pleased for him - he works so hard on the pitch

This is the other thing..he works so hard for the team.

Let's face it we have always had players who are hard working and run their socks off. Which is why we can't carry players like Ayari and to lesser extent Haji.

 

[Calista]

It’s players like Tats that make you love football.

He can beat a man either way, works hard, defends, low ego, team player..

All true, but on top of that is his technical ability (touch, vision, weight of passing). We don't seem to have paid much for him, and you've got to hand it to the scouting team, although did I read that he was almost an 'accidental' find when we were looking at someone else?

Who were the cheaper strikers that we tried to sign,and do we still want one (them)?

We need at least one other striker. We had four midfielders on the bench last night and no forwards. A couple of injuries up front and we are really struggling.

Godden was unavailable.

 

[Evo1883]

Well looks a sensational talent in the new system ..

 

[Esoterica]

His fitness level vs the start of the season is incredible. Looked like he could have played 2 games last night.

 

[fernandopartridge]

I've criticised his final ball but he's improving that, it's still not as good as his approach play but decent.

Does make you wonder why he hasn't played more this season

The wing back system he wasn't truly a viable option .. sure he can play 10 or wing back but he's clearly not first choice of either

 

[Sick Boy]

Godden was unavailable.

Even so, we could do with another back-up striker with some experience.

Yep. I think we need another striker. If the youngsters aren’t considered good enough yet.
in the very little I’ve seen of him I thought Obikwu looked a better prospect than Tavares but hasn’t had a minute on the pitch.
Who was the lad who literally had a minute vs Middlesbrough? He’s not been seen again either.

tbf he's probably prepping for his GCSEs atm!

His Mum won’t let him stay out long enough for the evening games.

Kai Andrews, I think…pretty sure he did pre-season with the first team squad. Tavares is the same age as Simms, so not sure he can be described as a youngster!

If Tats had scored with that bicycle kick last night it would have been the main talking point today.His skill and his application of it is what makes this septuagenarian (old git) love watching him.

That’s the lad!
Tavares is 22 is he? Probably ain’t going to make it with us is he.

 

[SBT]

Anyone got a clip of the turn from last night?

 

[Boicey]

Saka was immense last night. As well as his tricky wing play and providing a wide attacking option ; he tackled back everywhere including the left side of the pitch on one ocassional!
He also produced some great longer range passing.
His combination with MVE is working brilliantly.

 

[chiefdave]

Hope Doug has got another signing lined up for January that Robins knows nothing about and is only being signed for the shirt sales

 

[Chris1987]

What a gem Saka is , a proper breath of fresh air. His fitness levels have improved immeasurably since the start of the season and now we are seeing his potential. He has terrorised the full backs he's up against since being switched to the wing but his tracking back had been equally impressive. So exciting to watch.

 

[Terry_dactyl]

I hate his song but I sing it around the house quite a lot.

 

[AOM]

About to ask the same thing. Was so good, they replayed it instantly on the big screen

 

[AOM]

Only just seen this. Can this be his new song please.
His current one doesn't seem to work in a big ground and nobody seems to know the words

 

[shmmeee]

The song sounds awful 9 times out of 10, just mumbles until the doodoodoo bit. It’s never changing now though, like the awful Gyokeres song.

That why we go to watch football .Pure skill.

What are the words?

 

[Evo1883]

Me singing the sakamoto song next to my 11 year old who knows all the words

 

[Terry_dactyl]

What are the words?

“Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah-blah-blah-blah-blah, Tatsu on the wing, Sakamoto on the wing”.

Is that right?

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

“Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah-blah-blah-blah-blah, Tatsu on the wing, Sakamoto on the wing”.

Is that right?

I think the first bit is: 'Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma nu ma iei'

 

[shmmeee]

Another reason I don’t like this is that us large fellows look like this singing along.
