I know, but he still played and is hardly just coming back from injury, which was my orginal point.

No service at all yesterday. I'm struggling to see how him dropping deep into the most congested part of the pitch would've helped us. We needed our wide players to get past their markers. It didn't happen.
The right answer.

Won't stop people talking nonsense though. :thumbsup:
His casual return flicks of thrown ins straight out of play has nothing to do with wingers not beating their men.

He was rank rottenyesterday.
There was a few headers he didn't bother challenging for either. No just not jumping, he didn't even use his body to make it difficult for his opponent to head it well.

In the last nine games, Moussa has:

Started four.

Been a sub in two.

Not played in three of them.

He is not having a good season but it's a little harsh to criticize for not scoring in games that he didn't play in :lol:

Didn't criticise him at all for not scoring in any games never mind the ones he didn't play in, just pointed out that he is not just back from injury.

excellent in 2 of his last 4 starts. needs to do a lot better than saturday but think people are clutching saying there was no effort.

plenty of times he tracked back into our own half and came deep looking for the ball. it was when he was on the ball that he was terrible

Might've been psychological, given his injury problems, and the state of that feckin 'pitch'. :twitch:
Moussa needs to be starting every game, from here on in, with or without a support striker (i.e. Edouard).

Wednesday - 'fantastic performance', 'back to his best', 'an absolute stormer of a game', etc., etc.

Saturday - 'shampooe' 'no effort'. 'couldn't be arsed'. 'head's gone'.

This thread is mood swing central. :lol:

Or just a reflection of how he actually played? :lol:

Anyway, he's been nowhere near the player he was last season but then none of the team have.

Says more about moussa than the people on this thread, we mostly all want him to do well but can only comment on what we see.
He has the ability to be fantastic but at times he is verging on a waste of a jersey, he needs to fix it.

In several games I think Dembele has simply played badly and/or looked disinterested but today I felt we failed to give him adequate service, which will hopefully will be addressed by Brendan in upcoming games.

Nah. I feel the opposite. There have been games where he was isolated. Today he failed to do his job on a number of occasions. Couldn't protect the ball, didn't win headers, didn't box the man out and bring others into it.

Much too passive today. Their CB must have loved playing against him. Far too often he's giving SPFL defenders their career games against him. The ones where they look back and think they could have been a contender.

Thought he worked very hard today. Not everything came off for him but that touch for the first goal was superb.

Not great today but it's becoming a regularity that he makes the run waiting for Tierney to bend the ball round the defence in front of him and KT invariably passes it back to Ajer. He looked very frustrated at times.

How many times today was the ball passes to his feet in the penalty area? We must have had a million shoots from outsider the area by our midfielders like we have had lately.

Him not scoring is more to do with him not getting the required service than to do with his ability.

We need to have well played through build ups not just counters with a finish in the first 15s.
