Welcome Andrew Robertson

[kop205]

Decent debut that. See how he goes from here.

Aye

[Earl Hafler]

Comfortable off both sides. Finally, a left back who isn't a monoped

 

Feels like completing the Water Temple in Ocarina Of Time.

He's the new (left-sided) Rob Jones

 

Seriously though, think we have our first choice FBs in TAA & Robertson

[Dan]

Encouraging.

[Zoob]

Yeah. No point getting carried away given the opposition and fact that they didn't really attack (so he wasn't really tested defensively) but his balls into the box and mobility were encouraging. Almost no prem player can be as brainless as Moreno, so Robertson already looks a good upgrade. 

[Leo No.8]

I think just seeing a 'good' full back performance makes you really realise how scary bad Moreno is.

 

Robertson really was good today though.

 

Just read he had 134 touches today - that's a lot.

That's incredible, people used to go nuts when Scholes would have 100 touches in a game

'Nuts' and 'scholes' in the same sentence reminds me of his famous picture

Seems like a lot doesn't it?

 

Remember Barnesy having 100+ when he played CM and it was seem as loads.

[Rusty Shackleford]

I'm still coming down from Moreno's goal against Spurs, great player who never looked back.

 

Very impressed with Robertson today though, delivery excellent etc, but loads of people on the likes of RAWK saying how they told us he was a bargain. Let's see what he does over a half season.

Ah but can he take a bloody corner? Please say yes.

Doesn't matter got TAA now...

Pirlo has to be the king of that right?

They only really started measuring that kind of stuff 6/7 years ago. Xavi was always the watermark. I think the late wave of praise Scholes got at the end of the career was in large part due to pundits noticing he had loads of touches per game, that and the Class Of '92 film.

[Swipe]

He reminded me of Finnan yesterday. That'll do.

[Rusty Shackleford]

I actually recall Jamie Redknapp getting praised on Sky for the amount of touches he had in a game against Southampton for us years it ago. It's probably something like 20 years ago so it's been getting mentioned for much more than 6 or 7.

[muleskinner]

Very encouraging debut.

Huge victory for the entire Hafler family.
