Jarell Quansah Player Thread (D)

I look at Robbo’s positioning in that clip there and I cringe. If he’s in line with the back 4 like he should be, that pass out wide is closed off. Even after the pass is made he’s still 3 yards deeper which allows a simple square ball to be played. Shocking stuff.

Big ask coming on for Trent against these opponents. Trent was playing well. But Quansah did well himself. Good to see and we may need him on Sunday.

Unlucky his header didn't go in off the post.


Someone does that to us and the ball nestles in the back of the net!!


Hows' our F***ing luck?

Of all the subs that came on, the only 1 that can hold his head up high.

What a silly thing to say. They all played well enough and worked hard. It wasn’t the subs fault we lost.

He was excellent when he came o. & very unfortunate not to score on a couple of occasions, put a nice ball into the box too…

This will do him a world of good for his confidence ..

Well done Jarell boy.

I said this before and im more convinced since, this lad could be transformed in to a cm

Silly how?

I wouldn't go as far as to say it was their fault no but each sub made us progressively worse. We had absolutely nothing going into ET. Could've been 2 down in the first 2mins with Beraldo's header and Doue's effort going inches wide.

Oh good god please tell me you're joking

I'd be more keen to develop him being able to play RB a bit more.

Think that's more natural fit for his game.

And I mean to cover not as his first choice position.

I still strong believe he is going to be a top top centre half.  Hopefully he stays fit and carries on working hard. 

Trent getting hurt sucks, but in one way it's good for next season (assuming TAA leaves). It gives us 10 games or so to evaluate Quansah at RB. I know that's not his first choice position, but he's fast and defends well and at thisnpoint I imagine he wants to play anywhere and contribute. His biggest skill as a defender is on the ball, I think he may surprise some folks out wide

Long-term I don't think he's a RB personally but it's handy having someone who can do a job there occasionally and the experience will do him good.

He can be our new Joe Gomez, maybe a fitter version

Happy enough with him at RB. Needs must. He actually gets forward quite well too.

I think someone Quansah would work better in a back 3 where pace isn’t so much an issue.

Quansah is very fast....Just doesn't look it. Like Virg, they have long strides so they don't look like they're moving quick but they are.

He's really not - he's lumbersome, especially in the first 5 yards, a 6ft6 lump who moves like Crouch at USG blitz him for pace when we lost there, Virg manages to beat the likes of Adama for pace and still looks insanely fast after an ACL.

1:08 in, that's not a "very fast" CB.

How old is that ?

How old is that ?

It's from last season...what a bizarre question, what does the age of anything have to do with assessing how fast a player is?

Because young players improve clearly 🤷‍♂️
