Think we best just agree to disagree. He hasn’t started for ages in the league. The point I’m making is he’s impacting games from the bench with either assists or goals and scored a Worldy tonight and in my eyes put in a fantastic performance. Whether that’s enough for a league start Saturday remains to be seen…
Greenwood has just lost a family member , he needs time if he feels he needs it.
Apart from his superb goal which changed the game and winning the penalty that won us the game and working his socks off for 90 minutes what did he do?
”did ok”
Was pretty much our only bright spark against Stoke too.
Scored the winner against Birmingham.
Excellent assist for Jones against Sunderland.
I‘m not saying he should definitely start the next game or that he’s the messiah but some fans are very quick to criticise and right players off, but very reluctant to give deserved praise.
. Been excellent in every cup game too
I don’t think we have one main outlet at the minute, it’s spread out across the front four.
I really don’t see it with Jones. He’s looks good at times, but gives the ball away far too often and has very little end product. He cannot cross or shoot. Carrick has obviously seen something in him in training to persist with starting him but he’s been very poor the last few games.
Players have dips in form, even the best will have a run of bad games
In all fairness... He didn't win the penalty by a sublime bit of skill , tricking a defender into a last gasp challenge..Apart from his superb goal which changed the game and winning the penalty that won us the game and working his socks off for 90 minutes what did he do?

5 minutes into the game and some "fans" near me were shouting how bad he was! Clueless and funny enough didn't hear much out of them in the second half.
He was anonymous first half same as silvera. Second half he made the difference, fantastic is a bit over the top I think. Thats just my opinion
Has he reached his ceiling?
Jones was a catalyst for our change in form.Has he reached his ceiling?
Jones can be unplayable but it’s rare, he doesn’t have the consistency or basic footballing brain to make it at the top level but he will tear teams apart at this level 3-4 times a season.
