Lundstram played well today

[@thelane]

so maybe now people can stop with all the negative rubbish.....I think he did really well...looked strong, composed and confident.

... I've been as guilty as most for being critical of his performances but thought he was excellent today.

Never stopped talking and shouting. Loved that he was screaming at our guys to step it up as there were kicking off after they'd scored.

We're typically vulnerable after scoring and half time but he seemed to address this.

Top performance lad.

I honestly didn't know he played till you just said

Lundstrom had a great game. As did Sharpe, before he came off for that wonder kid Brookes.

And what a great goal by Bashem.

 

[Snowman]

I noticed two misplaced passes and he wears yellow boots. He's not won me over yet.

Did Tongue play

 

[Trafford]

Best game I’ve seen him play - covered lots of ground, distributed the ball well and was good in the air. Gave Fleck the chance to get forward more, which won us the game.

When Ipswich turned up the tempo in the second half we missed Coutts' calming influence to keep possession but generally speaking I think Lundstram did very well even if he's not a like-for-like replacement.

 

[dazzlingblade]

i do think we have a player here, still needs time to adapt, just that initial speed of thought, just dwells on it occasionally, but definitely improving with every minute

 

[Alfreton14Blade]

Tbf he had a mare in his first game (which happens), but he's been solid since then, easing his way in.

He looked really good today though. Clearly doesn't control the game the way that Couttsinho does, but he brings other things to the table. Seemed right at home & comfortable, & was a big influence, I thought.

Is that the same as Lundstram and Sharp and Basham?

 

[@thelane]

Sorry yes ...name spelling error apologies

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

He's a steady back up for coutts or fleck

whoooooshh....

 

[EddieColquhoun]

Talented young player making his way in the game. Those on here criticising him after he played a few minutes need to give their heads a wobble.

[ChipButtyBlade]

Lundy played very well today,his back tracking tackle where he ran nearly two furlongs to make it was exceptional.

It'll be the same people who wrote off Coutts... and Clarke... and Freeman... and so on.

Criticism is fine, but giving it the big NGE is folly.

 

[blader]

I like the the height he gives us in midfield. However, his passing is an obvious downgrade on Coutts. Did ok, 6.5/10 for me.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

 

[bladesmanluke]

He didn’t set the world alight, but he didn’t put a foot wrong either. Solid performance from John. He’s not in Coutts’ class in my opinion, but he’s done a good job today stepping in

 

[Carlton Blade]

Solid enough. Still looks like he could lose some weight though?

...Hammond

The sign of a good central midfielder doing what he needs to do in order to let those with more flair do what they need to do.

 

[Bladeinleeds]

The lad has stepped up 2 divisions in 2 seasons and had to settle into a new team - was always gonna take him some time to fully adjust to the new surroundings.

His performances seem to be improving game by game, which is obviously good news.

 

[Liaminho9]

He covered for Coutts well and currently that’s all he needs to do. So no problem for me.
The part of his game that impressed me most today was his two-footedness. I was with 2 neutrals that were overall very impressed with our play today, but commented after the game they genuinely could not tell if he was left or right footed.

 

[GrayBlade]

He wasn’t too bad overall, but I wish he was stronger in the 50/50’s. I’m not suggestive that he deliberately neshes it, but all too often he doesn’t seem to be confident or committed enough to come away with the ball. He also seems to lack a bit of agility, at times balls that other players in the side would cut out bypass him, so maybe that’s part of the problem.

He seems to have some of the Coutts of old traits IMO so Wilder needs to work the same magic on him, but there’s definitely something to work with.

It wasn't a dig ,I didn't get in from work till about 330 didn't see the team and watched the game on a stream

I'm glad I didn't notice him like you say

 

[Surrey Blade]

I thought he acquitted himself well. He won ball in the air, put himself about and passed the ball well. He has a good attitude and I can see why CW rates him.
