Starting to get very concerned about his consistent ineffectiveness on our right side. No goals or assists in nearly half a season of appearances now after a near 30m outlay. And worse than that, he never looks close to doing anything! Have a shot mate

Fulham 1879

Agree. Sure Silva wanted him along with Kevin.

Steeeeeeeeeed

We need to buy Haaland to bring the best out of him.

I wanted to put that heading , he was very in effective today.
1975 just leaving home full of hope

I suspect we've had our pants pulled down on this one. Another tidy but ineffective player to add to our collection.

It's way too early to call this a pants-pulling IMO. I think he'll come good, but he needs to hit the gym with King. Maybe they can spot for each other.

Hit the back of the net would be better or
hit a decent cross once in a while.

He looked dangerous against Chelsea, more direct.

bencher

He must learn to use his right foot. He was one v one and just needed to go on the outside where the space was and get a shot off with his right. It's criminal that someone could play on that side and have no ability/confidence to do that.


Coastwalker

We ain't half signed some crap over the last few seasons,and paid good money for them as well.

Bassey the warrior

Thought he was pretty good vs Chelsea and had a good World Cup. He needs to shoot more.

In general the Sunderland performance was very similar to how we played last season, painfully slow build up and too many safe passes. The only players trying to make something happen were King and Garcia. There's a lot of work for Arbeloa to do still.

ESR has definitely improved this season. I've no doubt Kevin and Bobb will improve. Charles and Garcia already look decent value.

It's just Andersen that has limited room for improvement given his age and physical limitations. I've said before that he isn't suited to a back four.

Palacios was pretty cheap and has plenty of natural talent. He's still adjusting to the physicality of the league, so we'll need to give him time. Should be taken out the firing line and dropped to the bench,  with one of Kevin, ESR or Iwobi replacing him.


KentFulham

Too many people keep saying Bobb, Kevin, ESR etc will "Come Good" These are £30m player signings, they should be arriving good! and certainly shouldnt be underperforming months later. The idea of players who will "Come Good" is something more reserved for younger acadamy players stepping into pro football, or coming up the leagues. These guys are paid professionals. Either Step up or step out

Not sure you can get 50 gram weights in the gym...

perry geyton

I've never understood his purpose
completely ineffective tippy tappy nonsense at its best

personally id start Sess on the right all day long over Bobb

saying that, he was semi decent against Chelsea so I won't right him off completely but not gonna hold my breath

Spot on.

Nick Bateman

To his defense and I've criticised Bobb before, he looks better than Zepa and Sess on that wing. Fulham were weaker subbing Bobb IMO. He had a good world cup!
Nick Bateman "knows his footie"

LittleErn

Agreed Bobb is very reluctant to go outside his marker, but his best asset is his ability to make an incisive pass. That requires others to be running into space ahead of him. He seems more like an inside forward than a winger to me, but unfortunately he doesn't have the physical presence to play that role.


Slaphead in Qatar

Bobb has done very little for us in the minutes played. He is just a tidy player who plays the short easy pass most of the time or just loses the ball.

Milo

Looks devoid of confidence. However clearly has quick feet and potential.
