MillwallLoyal 282 Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 I thought Ojo (and Arfield for that matter) looked far more effective on the opposite wings, coming inside. Ojo on the right, Arfield left. Ojo has a sweet left foot, not so his right. Agree he’s better coming off the bench when everyone is fit though.

Players at 22 should show some ability to make good decisions. He is very poor considering where he is at this moment in his career. Of course players at 22 can improve but he has a LOT of improving to do to get to a decent level. Right now he is awful. Considering we need to win the league it's just not good enough for what we require right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give him time, it's only September. Ryan Kent was also criticized rightly so for the same things Ojo is being criticized for and that's primarily bad decision making. Ojo sometimes looks lost when he doesn't have the ball however he also makes some great runs in the right and left channels and links very well with Morelos. Provided the out-ball a few times the other night. Experience is the key. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough by the end of September opinions were starting to change regarding Kent but a lot of people I know weren't convinced at the beginning of the month. I just think some of the reactions in here regarding Ojo are a bit OTT. He's had some brilliant moments and some frustrating ones, always the same for a player his age.

SuperLeeMcCulloch 2,330 Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Can't take to him at all but thought he had a much better game on Sunday against St Johnstone, Wednesday he was ineffective again, tbf to him though I don't think I've ever seen any of our wingers have a good game at Livingston Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s inconsistent and he needs to improve on his decision making but that will only come with game time, which he’s getting now. Kent and Candeias managed 6 goals each and 9 and 12 assists respectively over the entire season last season. Ojo has 5 goals and 4 assists already so while he might be inconsistent he’s certainly not awful or anywhere near as bad as people are making him out to be.

But he has a quality and ability to deliver that others dont. The stick Tav and Ojo get is a joke, especially when you compare it to the free passes given to Arfield and Davis when they lose the ball in similar circumstances and the backing given to Andy Halliday who is a total plodder. Arfield's work rate is second to none, but sadly his general ball control and first touch is that of an elephant. Becoming less effective as every game passes. He could have scored a barrowload by now if he had the composure and ability. Becoming a bit of a headless chicken. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

born a blue nose 90,771 Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 I watched defoe go off his nut with him in like our 4th game n that's when I knew his decision making was poor. He's only galvanised that thought since. I said to the boys I'm going to shout at him more than any other player this year due to it and it's fucking happening, too regularly.

There was threads on here wanting him signed permanently in Sept last year calling him outstanding etc. He was praised in the qualifiers last year. That being said Ejaria and Coulibaly were praised then as well. Edit - just seen @OhW posted similar above. For all the expert analysts on RM here's a selection of comments from the same time last season: (and these are only a few Aug Sep last year) Time to get Kent off. Let Middleton have a run at them. ..still think kent has something about him but hasnt shown it yet ..Kent can't seem to beat his full-back at all we need an attacking threat on that left-side. Kent and Ejaria need fucked off too Kent isn't good enough kent is just an extra body in home games. He adds nothing Think Kent doesn’t cope well with pressure. Much better once a game is won RyanKent has the same problem as MOH. He just runs straight into people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMB 14,167 Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 If Ojo scores 15+ this season we should do everything we can to sign him on a permanent basis. Liverpool have Wilson out on loan who’s better but worth £20m+. Realistically Ojo will never get in to their team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
