Ayozé Pérez (now playing for Real Betis)

Perez created more chances than any other PL player this weekend (6).

 

Depends on what you mean by 'chances' and even what you mean by 'created'!

 

Opportunities to score goals. Made them happen by something he did. Glad we could clear that up for you.

Was epically shit today, as always.

 

All he seems to do is pathetically throw himself on the floor then stop playing to shout at the referee whilst the opposition run away with the ball unopposed.  If he actually stayed on his feet and tried to play the game he might add some value.

 

Play the whistle you thundercunt!

For the 10th time this season - not good enough.

Another pitiful game

Needs to hit one of his purple patches ASAP.

utter imposter of a footballer championship standard at best. Offers absolutely fuck all 99% of the time and is as weak as a kitten. This guy has been with us for 5 years now and it highlights how absolute shite we are if he is a regular starter. 2nd relegation for this prick is incoming

 

If/when we go down he needs to be one of the first shown the door

Well it's an upgrade on the supposedly League One standard player he was last week I suppose.

We know he's not good enough, he's in the side because we won't pay the going rate for a top striker, and haven't done since Cisse. Even he wasn't really a top striker, but compared to what we are spending these days, he was world class. It's pointless ranting about these guys tbh, Perez runs his socks off, just obviously limited in a few departments.

Running your socks off is not a pre requisite for a premier league footballer

He doesn't play as a striker for us though. Even if we had a top striker we'd still need a good number 10 to play off him

Lads not progressed as his very early promise had suggested.

Playing in a poor side and for a club engaged in civil war certainly isn't helping him. Far from our worst though imo, and yes far from our best (though our best would be counted as 'adequate' for most other sides imo).

 

grim fucking times.

Running your socks off is not a pre requisite for a premier league footballer

 

Running your socks off is a prerequisite for a professional footballer full stop.  Very, very few footballers are good enough for the game to revolve around them, and even then these days, even the very best players still put the miles in.

 

The days of your Jan Molbys are gone, and anyway, Perez is a fucking wank footballer and isn't anywhere good enough to be considered as a luxury player.

He's in the side because Rafa won't play 2 up front whatever the circumstances. What's wrong with Rondon with Muto playing off him?

The very best players know when to conserve energy for when running won't be wasted rather than just running about tbh. At least in his position anyway.

 

Like Rio Ferdinand puts it, if one of the first things you hear about a player is that they work hard and put themselves about, your automatic assumption is that they've got nothing about them.

 

I don't see effort as being a problem with Perez anyway like, it's more him overplaying it, running into trouble, or misplacing passes imo.

The real problem with Perez is that he's got absolutely nothing to offer on the pitch.  No pace or athleticism.  Zero strength.  No footballing brain or vision.  He doesn't move into dangerous spaces and the game just passes him by.  All he does is get the ball in really un-threatening positions then tries to draw a foul and throws himself on the floor, usually embarrassingly and unsuccessfully.  We'd be better off getting any other player and telling them to just get in the box and try and get a few goals (© Kevin Nolan).  He is a truly awful, awful player.

He scored 8 goals in the Premier League last season and 10 in total. No matter what you think of him (and he frustrates the life out of me) he clearly has his worth as a player, let alone over the anyone that you think would do better.

8 goals in 32 (plus 8 sub) appearances is pretty underwhelming for a main striker.  He also has 0 goals in 8 appearances so far this season which is abysmal.  My point is that his poor goal scoring record is his biggest positive.  He adds fuck all in every other department.  I'd rather get one of the under 23s in the team and tell them to goal hang - Perez is that much of a waste of a pick at the minute.

He's a number 10, not a main striker. I disagree like, it's very easy to see how much worse we are whenever he doesn't play, and I say that as someone who doesn't particularly like him. If we had anyone even potentially better in that position I'd be crying out for him to be replaced, but we don't.

Rondon's not been fit for a start, and Rafa still seems to think Muto isn't ready for a regular slot.

Perez our main striker? What?

Let Kenedy have a free role as number 10 just going where instinct takes him. He will never be a disciplined sort of player and he does all of his best work when he comes inside

Perez our main striker? What?

 

And Joselu in behind as the #10. keep up.

Perez would be as good as any other striker we've got TBH, except maybe Rondon if he gets fit. Perez is much better in the final third when he doesn't have time to lose the ball, and he's probably our best finisher.

Disagree. There are Amazonian tribesmen as yet untouched by civilization who have better footballing brains than this fraud.
