Player Topic: Jesus Navas (2015/16)

[hilts]

Should play every game, the problem has always been what to do with silva,toure,kdb and sterling not to mention pellekeegans inclination to play two up top

 

[kenzie115]

I like him.

His crossing can be mitigated slightly by having to cross to Aguero as a sole striker, who is flat footed and no threat in the air.

He was today!!

Can anyone tell me what he contributes, not one to start bashing players usually but he's absolutely awful. What's the point having a winger who can't cross?

Never stops running...chases back and defends...needs to cross better....needs to learn to be direct...needs to score more.

Somehow we play better with him without knowing statistics to underline it.

Say what you like but we have better balance with him in the team

 

[Silva_Spell]

I think part of the reason our away form has been shit recently is because he's been out of the team.

He stretches the pitch, scares fullbacks with his pace and he works damn hard

Exactly this . Didn't he start all 5 games at the start of the season ? Games we won at a canter really

 

[BringBackSwales]

He brings game changing momentum to us, a very important member of our squad

Navas should be converted to a Right Back.

With his pace he could seriously be awesome. He would also add additional pace always at the back for teams that play counter attack against us. His positives a great control, running with the ball and superb pace. With some specific training on jockeying and tackling he could be seriously good.

A winger he is not as his limitations are his crossing and shooting.

His crossing can be mitigated slightly by having to cross to Aguero as a sole striker, who is flat footed and no threat in the air.

His shooting cannot be excused and is shocking.

Thats very wise. Sagna & Zabba are knocking on.
