Was that the Olympic Bronze medal play off (where he scored one decent goal and one very good goal), that you were thinking of, Corky? ;)
Fact is he wouldn't get a work permit for another Premiership club so his best destination would probably be Spain where he could get a Spanish passport relatively quickly after 2 seasons on loan there I'm sure we can find a La Liga side willing to play him weekly because he's definitely not ready to start up front on his own.

It's people like yourself who obviously have never seen what he was doing at CSKA, i'll attach a link for a video, you'll find it amazing to the difference in the JO we've got with low n confidence at the minute.

Many thanks for that, Ant. It's easy to see why we paid out £19m for a youngster now, but it does raise questions re. why he seems to have gone so bad so quickly and whether with another Club he could get it all back.
It's hard to say whether his poor performances are linked to our formation and approach play or loss of confidence caused by crowd impatience or both, but some folk seem to have a lot to answer for.
How well could you or I work if we knew that critical folk were just waiting for us to slip up so that they could have a go at us? I feel like apologising to him for what our Club has done.

No probs. i thought it needed posting to prove the reason behind us buying him! I honestly believe its just him settling down here, and just hope the club hang on to him and help him find that kind of form back as he'ld be deadly!

Not every player is a freak of nature like Torres who can just adjust to the physical nature of the premier league, and his problem IS physical.
We should get him on Micah Richards workout routine.
I think he'll become shit hot ! just got be patient with him and let him settle in while give him minutes on the pitch i just think he needs that 1st goal in the PL to get him off.
Jamo gave him that
Forgot bout that one :-) but to be fair how we were playing anyone could of got one in that game!
That's U-23s though isn't it, not senior side
He may come good, I don't know, after the Caicedo transformation anything's possible

I saw the video before we even signed him. The league in Russia is nothing compared to the prem. Totally different game. Look at Samaras when he was playing here and look at him now playing in the half arse SPL. MH didn't even want him.
It's people like you who will be saying "just give him a little more time" if we were in the relegation zone at the end of the season. We don't need to take this mentality with the position we are in now. MH and the club has targets. Like any job that has targets if you don't hit those targets in a certain time you get sacked or, in Jo's case, sold/loaned whatever.
I agree it is different league but if you watch the video in the second half you'll see he is been physical with defenders which we haven't seen yet! and also his goals he was getting they weren't all tap ins he had some belters which would go in not matter what league it was in!
Sorry if it seems like am ranting but the guy is 21 moved to somewhere he's probably never been before, who's come with him ?? his family ? he can't get to do to much with robbie and elano out of football with them having family life living with them! I just think we'll see the real Jo when he's got some confidence as the whole move must have been a shock to him!
you reckon hes got jonnos number?

That is an under-24 dead rubber, not the first team. Olympics are under age.
