Stevan Jovetic (continued)

[HalfwayUpTheKippax]

Would greatly appreciate a run-down on his appearance today folks, preferably from someone who actually saw the game. ;)

He was wearing a sky blue shirt and white shorts :)

He had a few decent touches. wanted the ball, looked a little rusty.

only going to get better imo.

Thought he looked ok when he came on. Tried to get things flowing. Wanted the ball and obviously
will get better with more game time. Nicked one off Dzeko's head quite nicely ;-)

 

[TrueBlue1705]

Looked a bit short on match sharpness obviously but you can see there is a touch of class about him - he looked positive & was trying to make things happen. I am very excited about Jovetic, if he settles and gets regular games I think we have a gem!!!

 

[tiggsywiggsywoo]

He will be ok in a couple of weeks.

 

[g180aj]

I was impressed today. Can clearly play both as a midfielder and a striker. Pulled their defence all over the shop and opened up the space for Sergio.

He had a good impact on the game today, seems to be a player who likes to operate between the mid and attack like nasri and silva. much better than against west ham.

Agree. He was looking to make things happen and he has a good touch.

 

[El Mago]

Where did he play tonight ? as a LW, RW, or behind the striker ?

Well, it all seem to happen after he came on and he made a contribution to at least 2 of the goals

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

will hopefully now get better and better in the run in to the season's end. We are all aware of what he can be capable of, will be like a brand new signing for us at the right time

 

[Mike N]

Very pleased with his contribution today. Couple of more games and he'll be near match fit.

[Ireland_for_pm]

His touch is class and you get the feeling after a few more games he will come into his own. Watford were set up well today but when he came on they struggled with his movement at times. Although he didn't have a major impact you have to say that substitution changed the game.

 

[Citizen Green]

I'll admit I don't know a great deal about the lad!, what type of forward is he? what current players in the world can he be compared to?. Looking at his stats he seemed to be more of a creator than goal scorer at Fiorentina.

He has been compared to Roberto Baggio.

Best position is behind the striker or on the left wing.

Kinda reminds me of Bergkamp. Never seen a player love deft flick passes more than Jovetic.

The team had a much better balance about it when he came on almost immediately, i think he held his position a little better than Lopez , just wasnt the young lads day, although he did seem to be under some kind instruction to roam and come inside a lot, kind of the way silva plays but it just didnt happen for him, it will though, great prospect.

 

[ErnieBilko]

Look promising when he came on. I hope he stays fit and offers another option with nasti out at the moment.

 

[Ric]

Thought he showed great promise yesterday, and although a few of his flicks didn't quite come off he was always looking for the ball and making things happen. Can't wait to see him once he's fully match fit, as he has great natural ability. Will be an important player for us in the title run in.

 

[cibaman]

I think it would be unrealistic to expect too much from him this season. Even if he'd been fully fit from the start of the season it would still have taken a while for him to get the feel of the PL. He's used to a slower pace. He's also used to being the fulcrum of his team, particularly at international level.

He's not likely to get a long run of games this season and he'll have to adapt his game to fit in with our established style. Other players will be pulling the strings. He could be very valuable coming on as a sub as yesterday. But I don't think we'll see the best of him until next season.
