Hayden Mullins?

What about that 60 yard odd long pass he made from the edge of our box bang into Wilf's path in the second half... Breathtaking.

Could be. Need to see more of him.

7'9"?

I'm not a fan of 3 at the back so if we don't play that system I don't see where he fits in the team. Played ok and will do a job, but I don't see much more than that

Yeah he's gonna be a very good player. 20 years old.. reads game very well.. has pace and can pass very well.

Yeah we can do without bloody players coming in who consistently pass it to members of their own team

Agree with this. Problem with Roberts was he never had the physique or pace to play a high tempo game. Very clever pro who could take the pace out of the game. In the latter part of his Palace career (97/98) he became largely a passenger as we were so overrun and constantly chasing games.

I said it earlier in this thread I feel like we've bought him to play one position, one which I don't think he's actually that great at. Even after spending 9m on him I think we still need a left sided centre back......if we don't play a back three he doesn't play. We make some strange signings. I hope I'm proved wrong

Feel sorry for the guy having to play with some of them. PVA lacks so much discipline in his defensive duties that anyone playing alongside him is in for a torrid time.

Awful debut. Says a lot about the joke of a transfer market when 11 years ago £9m got you AJ and today it only gets you this.

I thought his passing was good but he was frequently left exposed by the midfield and Dann who was really poor. For me there's a decent footballer in there.

He and Hennessey looked mighty uncomfortable playing the ball to each other. It was like "you have it" "no, I don't want it, you have it"

No attempt to cut out the cross for the second goal.

He is 20. FFS please have some patience with him

He looked out of his depth to say the least.

You pay peanuts...you get NPL defenders

I expect under 13s defenders to make an attempt to cut out a simple cross into the box. He's an international title winning defender FFS.

Can't judge him on one game but today he was awful. Hopefully he's not that bad normally. De Boer doesn't seem to like defenders who can defend though. Who cares if he can pass a ball when he can't defend?

Terrible performance today
