Joe Aribo

[crocnroll]

I just can’t see what this lad brings to the team. Has the odd dribble but today contributed the square root of zero again. He only ever seems to do it when we are winning games easily and is usually missing when the going gets tough.

 

[Henry Hill]

Haha
Footballs probably not the game for you pal

 

[Dontcallmejebus]

Fucking hell

 

[Raumdeuter]

Must have imagined him creating both goals against Aberdeen

 

[Jjbscotty]

He’s not a centre mid IMO.

 

[The Lone Sniper]

No.

 

[DuntocherBear]

Or the equaliser against Braga...

 

[Topps]

He can be quite a frustrating player as he has a load of ability but can over conplicate things at times. He also should have scored today.

 

[Scottya86]

He was poor today

 

[Oldned]

I thought he came onto a good game in the second half, the number of interceptions he made when Motherwell were attacking was critical to our forward movement

 

[crocnroll]

So he was brilliant today then.....

 

[Hank_Marvin]

Better suited to 1 of the 10 positions imo

 

[TerrySilverLoyal]

Never knew stevie wonder had a FF login

 

[km_2083]

He was shocking today and one of a few standing watching at their goal

 

[Clubdeckg]

Like Aribo alot, he's not a CM though

 

[Kampbell]

Doesn't give us enough consistently for me.

 

[Gaz030191]

Poor today, but this thread is a howler

Aribo is a classy footballer with an incredible first touch, and reactionary threads like this don't change that.

 

[macaloon9]

Surprised at the reactions to this. I like Aribo but he was brutal today.

 

[Alan Johnson]

He needs to play further forward,injuries in midfield are not helping us.

 

[Bryanmc]

He was poor but definitely doesn’t deserve singled out over half of our players were way under par today

 

[Scaramanga]

I mean, I can’t fathom how anyone could fail to see what he can offer us. At his best he has the control and ability to open up tight defences, beat players and add goals.

That being said, he’s another one who needs to be more consistent, it seems he’s either brilliant or completely ineffective. His last two games being the latter. But he’s a brilliant talent and one we should absolutely persevere with.

 

[crocnroll]

He switched off for Aberdeen’s goal last week and same again today. Maybe you need specs yourself lad.

 

[DaveC]

He, along with many others, had a bad game. Nothing more.

I will say I don’t think he’s suited to playing so deep in the midfield 3 I want him around the edge of the box.

To say you don’t see what he brings to the team is a bit much though.

 

[BlueMcLeod89]

So he was brilliant today then.....

He had a poor game along with more than half the team today.

He is a lazy so and so

 

[The Crimson King]

Both him and the rest of the team are missing Jack.

 

[Artful Dodger]

He can be a very frustrating player.Has all the skills in the world and at time so off the pace.As I said in the match thread he is one of my favourite players but can be frustrating.Today was his worst performance for me.But again not in a position he is used to playing.

 

[Boro_gers07]

Haha

First post nails it as per usual

 

[Jjbscotty]

His first touch let’s him down quite often.

 

[Hutch42]

Pitch was not good for dribbling skills, Kent, Barassie both ran it out the pitch when running dribbling.

 

[Michael Mols]

Missing Jack and Arfield.

 

[Mr Wilton]

His form before he got injured earlier in the season was incredible! He just needs that wee bit of confidence to get back there!

 

[crocnroll]

Both him and the rest of the team are missing Jack.

We’re missing Arfield more imho.

 

[Shengus Malengus]

A poor result always brings out the eejits.

 

[WilkinsBullet]

Yes the switch off at the goal was awful

You on drugs mate

 

[Athletico Parsnips]

Nobody, who has ever played for us has played well every game.
In fact nobody for any team has.
As an example, I watched their game yesterday (bored and thought they would drop points) and the best player in the world, Turnbull was horrendous. As was most of their team.
Please, give our young players a break.

 

[crocnroll]

He was good pre season when it doesn’t matter.

 

[BaTmAn]

Don't think specs would do Stevie Wonder any good tbh.

 

[Boab4]

So he was brilliant today then.....

That wasn't your point in the OP

 

[The Golden God]

He was poor today.

We really do need more from him, he needs to be more consistent. We can't really afford midfield attacking players to have 1 cracking game then 3 or 4 quiet ones.

He needs to turn that around so he's having more positive impacts game than not.

 

[bilkobear]

He didn't play well today, but neither did anyone else in the team.
They all need a good kick up the jacksie.
They have given us a great season so far, but there is hard work to be done and glory to be won.

 

[Chester Loyal]

I think he’s a very talented player but I think he lacks a bit of aggression and belief.

He could, and probably should, be contributing more than he is but there’s just something missing to make him a dominant player.

 

[Blue-Knows]

He switched off for Aberdeen’s goal last week and same again today. Maybe you need specs yourself lad.

Or maybe you need to realise we are a bit light in the middle with Jack and Arfield out and Aribo is playing in a position which isn't his best.

Don't think there was a single fan accusing him of not being at it when we started the season.

 

[si72]

Never been the same since his injury.Bags of talent aswell.

 

[Mr Wilton]

He was good pre season when it doesn’t matter.

Bollocks, he was good before he got an injury. He just needs to get back to that level, where he had MOTM games!

 

[Clay Davis]

He isn’t 100% suited to being part of the 3 in midfield. If either Jack or Arfield were fit today he wouldn’t be starting in that position

Really good at winning the ball and taking the ball in tight spaces. Has a brilliant understanding with Kamara too.

 

[Ruben Sosa]

In preseason and early competitive games he was fantastic.

Hasn't looked the same player since coming back from the injury and will possibly drop out when Jack is back.

 

[Rangerstillidie]

Young and inconsistent. He was poor today and his effort in the second half that he put into space was absolutely terrible. Should be scoring from that sort of position. Has not really recovered from his early season injury.

 

[chilebear]

Playing out of position today

Won the ball back quite a few times in the second half
The exaggeration on here today is incredible
