Freeman's Wharfer Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 It's plainly obvious to me that he's unable to make as much impact as he could do because he hasn't got a left foot. Everything is taken on his right foot to the point where he tried that chip with his right (acceptable effort given the circumstances) where a top class striker would have buried it on his left. Got to work on that left peg if you want to make at the top level in Europe Andrej.
jimmeh Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 How many Croatian players have actually proved a success in the premiership? Very few. I imagine we will end up selling him for about 3 million quid or something.
AKCJ Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 Just out of confidence atm. Wouldn't be totally adverse to seeing him get some game time in the Championship.
lifted*fox Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 Just out of confidence atm. Wouldn't be totally adverse to seeing him get some game time in the Championship. THIS. Loan him out to a top half Championship team and get him scoring goals. He is way out of his depth at the moment and needs a massive confidence boost to get going. The lad is clearly capable and unlike tonight normally finds himself in good positions (tonight really was awful, just ****ing floating about), but until he finds his scoring boots he's going to waste away on the bench, inevitably crushing him further to the point where he'll end up totally useless like a chocolate teapot.
Foxymcoxy Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 Thought he was all right. That chip could haunt him though.
EGBFitness Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 I've said it all along, unless there is a massive improvement in his game I can't see him reaching the potential he supponsingly has. If he was a league One player we bought or a lad through the academy he would of been slated on here for not being good enough but because of his price tag and the hype everyone look at him through rose tinted glasses. He is too one sided, does the same pull back skill and I'm sick of him trying terrible chips towards goals... Someone should probably remind him of Kermo. I honestly hope I'm wrong and he does come good but atm I just can't see it
jimmeh Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 We will recoup the money wasted on him when we sell mahrez next year anyway
funkyrobot Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 I thought he showed flashes of class. His weakness in our team is a lack of pace. He certainly looks after the ball better than Okazaki has in the last few games. That chip was a bad idea though...
Bayfox Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 Does so many good things. But lacks pace and that chip. It didn't work at arsenal it didn't work today. Please stop it.
The Horse's Mouth Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 he was solid, but we always need a scapegoat
Cat Burger Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 His chip was weird. The way he dribbles is class, you can tell he's a good player but whether he will be good for us is another question!
VLC86 Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 He looks bad. Really bad. Really? Or does he look like a player who is low on confidence and away from his family? His biggest problem is what's been said 100's of times, skilful but not as quick as Vardy, not as industrious as Shinji and not as physical as Ulloa. What I don't get with him though is his positioning, rarely ever in the box!
Carl the Llama Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 He has oodles of ability, that much is obvious when he turns it on, he just seems to have some sort of mental block at the moment. If there's any group of lads that can impart the willpower to capitalise on that talent it's surely our lot, I'd keep him as a sub option and send Dodoo on loan to the Ch'ship. He's another one with clear ability to be tapped into who's not really got the first team experience Kram has from his time in Croatia.
BoyJones Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 Thought he was well off the pace, just seem to drift in and out of the game. Felt a bit sorry for him as Ulloa didn't help him at all. Krameric and Ulloa did nothing to push themselves forward. Well behind Vardy and Okasaki.
Heymister2015 Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 It's all set up for signing Austin in January! £10m plus Kramaric
lifted*fox Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 he was solid, but we always need a scapegoat he really wasn't . I spent a great deal of time watching his involvement and it amounted to very little. solid it was not.
HitchinFox Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 I've said it all along, unless there is a massive improvement in his game I can't see him reaching the potential he supponsingly has. If he was a league One player we bought or a lad through the academy he would of been slated on here for not being good enough but because of his price tag and the hype everyone look at him through rose tinted glasses. I get your point. However, a League One player or an academy lad wouldn't regularly be picked (and wouldn't have scored three goals in six internationals) for a country that features in World Cups and Euros – and be chased by Chelsea. We saw flashes of what he can do last season. Strikers are funny creatures, all to do with confidence. There are plenty of "one sided" goal machines throughout history and I for one haven't given up on Kramaric coming good.
Jattdogg Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 Id rather have nugent then this guy. Clearly needs some matches so a short loan would be fantastic for us to gauge his abilities.
Vindaloo FOX Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 i thought he kept the ball well at times and he dribbled with the ball well, he got pass his defender nicely before that awful chip . just places it or just smash it next time Kram .
NewburyFox Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 The most frustrating thing of his performance today ("chip" aside) was the fact that he wasn't gambling to get in the box. He'd just be drifting around the edge of the area, not doing much. One incident stands out where he had the ball on the edge of the box and played it out to Albrighton. Albrighton does what Albrighton does, which is get it on to his right foot and swing it into the box, so why on earth was Kramaric just stood on the edge of the box rather than giving himself a chance of getting on the end of it? His confidence is just shot at the moment and I'm not sure if we can give him the game time needed for him to get it up again. He shows some great touches and technique (that stepover in the build-up to his big chance was class) but he doesn't offer enough all round.
richardsfoxes Posted 22 September 2015 Posted 22 September 2015 Needs confidence, i still think he has a big future here.
