He had a great start to the season, hasn't been on quite so good form recently, it was great to see him back to his best today. Unsurprisingly he does best when the team are playing well and attacking (obviously it's tricky to play great through balls when there's no one making runs).

A cynic might say he has raised his game now the club has signed some competition for his position. Perhaps Locadia is having a positive influence already?

I know it just a normal day for him to set up one with a perfectly weighted pass, and score another with Teutonic laser guided accuracy, but we still ought to highlight the fact he is fookin great, esp when the movement around him is top notch.
I love Pascal.


A lot.




In fact, I thought I'd never love again after Inigo left us.

I wonder if his mates from Mannheim were here today - bumped into them at a pub in Newcastle before the match up there. A little group of them seem to come over quite regularly....

Fixed.

I understand that competition for places is good, but let's not overdo it eh. We need to fight to survive in this league, I don't suppose someone like Gross wants to spend next season in the Championship. He'd also be facing competition from Baldock.

Perhaps Locadia is having a positive influence already?
They may play together in some games when we need through balls to a pacey striker, depending on opposition.



PS – I trust you aren't one of those that might say he's raised his game now there's more competition for his place :)

No they ****ing don't. Lots (some) of people near me today bemoaning him at half time.

Also, loads slagging Bong off, who I thought had a great game.

Seriously? Bong had a great game. He does get some stick but no idea how anyone can slag him off today. Even the BBC said at half time how great he had been and it takes a lot to impress them.
As for Gross I’m not sure what else anyone wants. His movement and ability to find space is great, passing great, shooting good. 5 assists and 6 goals for essentially a man in a free role at a club in the bottom half is brilliant. Would go as far to say he will be one of the main reasons that we stay up if we do

People near you must be hard to please

Excellent today. When we can get players up and around him, he's fantastic - I think everything about him is high end Premier League quality bar his pace (and doesn't like a tackle much). Shame it's difficult to get him involved when we're under the cosh and that big gap appears from midfield to attack but we'd be in huge trouble without his contribution this season.
