Won the penalty , scored a stunning goal , should’ve laid one off to Rudi and miss hit an easy one

He’s 19 years old , if he brings that to the table on his full debut I’ll give him all the time he needs to bed in to the Premier league

Yeah i think this perhaps sums up where he's at. Lots of potential and quality, lots to learn also. He's also looks like he's benefited from the international break, a chance to bed in with his team.

I'd be cautious with him, we don't want to heap on the pressure on him to be our source of goals. But when Haji is back thats 4 players competing for 1 spot ( all be it a few can play out wide perhaps )

He was making some very good runs as well. Just needed EMC and BTA to look up.

Although that miss, was so much easier than the goal he scored!
 
He was lively,. and took his chance well. Be interesting to see him at Tottenham. If he starts, he'll get more space when we counter, but he's going to need to do the ugly stuff too being away from home. With Taiwo back too, and Simms pushing hard with his goal last night we have some good competition there.

Wonder if we could see

Rushworth
MVE Mfuni Thomas Pinnock JDS
Grimes Yerinkyi
Ruodni
Awoniyi Cherif
 
Raw, lot to work on but also a lot to like

He is 19 and I like the cut of his jib

As it’s a tough away game where we’re likely to be without the ball a lot I’d bring Awoniyi straight back in for Spurs.
 
Cherif will get his chance vs Tottenham. As sub...like Simms.

But Awoniye starts.

Definately lots of promise from Cherif can't ask for much more from him. Good prospect.

Thought he looked really good tonight against 2 seasoned CB's

Goal and Assist on his Premier League debut.

The break away in the first half from just inside our half. Where he ran through was looking for Rudoni but when it wasn’t on took on the shot which was accurate but lacked power. The key moment was how he won the ball and totally foxed the Newcastle defender who ended up flat on his face pathetically resorting to asking for a foul. That moment was like watching an experience CF not a 19 year old. He is showing a lot of promise. The chance he missed to put us three nil up, seeing it again on the highlights wasn’t as easy as it first looked as the ball sat up a bit and he was unfortunate that his shot deflected off his standing foot. But all things considered a good performance from him.

If you look at the slo-mo on Sky Sports he was really unlucky with the missed shot, as it came across he hit it with his right foot aiming for the left corner but the ball caught his left foot and deflected, just a fraction too late in connecting.

Flemming who has 2 goals and been a match winner for Ipswich this season. Glad you finally have seen the light!

Just admit you were wrong. Not saying there is a knee jerk pattern to your opinions but you had him as prime Messi when he was signed, then an expensive flop and now he’s scored he’s good again. Nonsense

Does Ruodni still play for us? If so I completely agree...I missed him!

After getting sent off and banned for 3 games, T doesn’t have the right to just replace the striker who won the penalty and scored a great goal.

Woukd seem harsh. But you have to make the right calls in football. Lampard will start with Awoniyi. He's dropped Simms many times when in a rich vein of form. The right thing then was to bring in Wright.

Just like the right thing now would be Awoniyi.

Lets get it right Tottenham away isn't going to be for the faint hearted.

And u dont give a f what anyone says I'm judging from my own eyes i think Awoniyi sending off was harsh to say the least.
 
Yeah its gonna be like this ....some games we will only create 2 big chances.

He scored the one where xg was about 0.10 and missed the much easier other 2 chances.

Cherif had a good game but he’s going to be a frustrating player for the next 1-2 seasons as he develops.

Missed 2 big chances but his goal was fantastic! I liked how he put himself about too!
