Said it a few weeks ago.. Better than PVA.. He is strong on the ball, can pass, tackle and wants to prove himself to the Palace Faithfull. Could be the signing on the season... If you get the drift.. Agree 100%, clubs will have taken notice of him and we will have another battle over keeping him, almost too good for us now.

Totally agree. Much better than PVA actually. Ajax don’t create s***e players. Hodgson’s man management leaves a lot to be desired with fringe players, but the favorites just love him as they play even when they are woefully out of form.
Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha. |

In fairness Riedewald has previous looked overweight and off the pace and has done little in cup games, pre season friendlies etc suggest he should be ahead of PVA, Luka, Kouyate. JM. etc. He’s taken his recent opportunity well and was excellent today great feet in Arsenal’s third. For his faults PVA brings balance with his pace and attacking threat from defence Edited by Rachid Rachid Rachid (11 Jan 2020 6.28pm) Yes he does but, too often gets well carried away with attacking and is completely missing when needed at the other end and I'm referring to when he gives the ball away when moving forward which he does an awful amount of times, Riedewald is a much much better passer of the ball and seems to never make silly stupid ridiculous mistakes he is miles and miles better then PVA in my book.

So far all his players have all played their part, they all want to play for him and it's clear to see, players always have to wait for injuries to get their opportunity, otherwise the dressing room can become a problem, the only player I'm having any issues with is Kelly, he is struggling in this position both forward and back.

Riedewald has had let offs in a couple of games ie Brighton’s “penalty” a poor back header today in our box and a similar one against West Ham. He did well today but the biggest issue with the current injuries is th3 lack of balance with regard to pace and players who the opposition have to defend seriously. Riedewald’s done well today but Arsenal had the relative luxury of trebling up on Zaha knowing that PVA wouldn’t be there to go past him. Edited by Rachid Rachid Rachid (11 Jan 2020 7.38pm)

Jairo certainly had his best ever game for us today and up against Pepe, a £75m player. If you played him and Luca together it might give the defence enough protection to play Mayer or dare I say it, Camarasa, further up the pitch. Jairo and Max's passing would surely give a better quality of ball to the rest of the attacking players. Kayoute, McArthur, and McCarthy are ok but don't not great.

I'm actually shocked how good Riedewald has looked. I can't help thinking, what's the catch? Why hasn't he been in the side earlier? Like others have said, as soon as we get the back line sorted out, I want to see him in midfield. I don't care who gets dropped to make way for him. One of the regulars on the BBS, who watches the U23s, said that Jairo had often looked dreadful for them until quite recently. I guess that might be why he has not featured before now. He has looked very good so far.
If you come to a fork in the road, take it. |

To be brought over to a new country at a young age, the manager that bought you sacked within weeks, demoted to the under 23s, rarely given a chance and not thought highly by the fans.. Not exactly a breeding ground for success. But wow, humble pie time... The deserves a huge amount of credit. Playing better than Luca! Originally posted by Badger11
