Olallana Posted 24 August, 2013 Posted 24 August, 2013 (edited) Should be too Cool in thread line... Keep getting these knocks from opponents and IMO some of them could be avoided if he was a bit quicker with what he does. He often have a lot of times due to his speed but it´s like he is too cool at times and wait to get to the ball or play the ball until the opponents are getting very close. He knows he will be first on the ball so that´s not the issue but when he waits until that last seconds the opponents are getting close thinking they can stop the ball but when they miss it they instead knocks into Luke....it´s like the opponents dont understand how fast he is and that they wont reach the ball but still goes into the challenges thinking they can...

Saint Charlie Posted 24 August, 2013 Posted 24 August, 2013 Every time you think he is the full package already he shows that he is still learning and certainly isn't a starter for a Man Utd or Chelsea. Will probably do him good though.
Saint Charlie Posted 24 August, 2013 Posted 24 August, 2013 So has he been badly injured or not? Doesn't seem so.
Olallana Posted 24 August, 2013 Author Posted 24 August, 2013 Dont know anything about the injury today, more a reflection on why he keeps getting knocks over and over again....
Georgie Posted 24 August, 2013 Posted 24 August, 2013 Doesn't seem so. Just precaution to bring him off then. Good. However I really feel like we should get another CB in who could also cover at full back. Shaw will keep getting niggling injuries and we aren't too many injuries off having to start Hooiveld/Fox. Although seeing that Fox hasn't even made the bench for first two games suggests that Clyne will be back up left back for now
Rebel Posted 24 August, 2013 Posted 24 August, 2013 Not start against Man Utd or Chelsea? Who is then? Not Fox I hope
Olallana Posted 24 August, 2013 Author Posted 24 August, 2013 Not start against Man Utd or Chelsea? Who is then? Not Fox I hope He meant that Luke isn´t ready to be a starter in a team like them....
Barry Sanchez Posted 24 August, 2013 Posted 24 August, 2013 Not start against Man Utd or Chelsea? Who is then? Not Fox I hope I think he was referring to he would be not start in United's or Chelsea. He would'nt.
Toadhall Saint Posted 24 August, 2013 Posted 24 August, 2013 He's only just 18 so please forgive him ifit feels a bid more painfull
Mowgli Posted 24 August, 2013 Posted 24 August, 2013 According to Fonte, Shaw not injured today Yes, he said both half time substitutions were 'tacticl'
Glasgow_Saint Posted 24 August, 2013 Posted 24 August, 2013 (edited) Jesus!! So an 18 year old makes one or two mistakes and now this thread and Shaw knockers Give it a rest #nonsense Edited 24 August, 2013 by Glasgow_Saint
St_Tel49 Posted 24 August, 2013 Posted 24 August, 2013 Just precaution to bring him off then. Good. However I really feel like we should get another CB in who could also cover at full back. Shaw will keep getting niggling injuries and we aren't too many injuries off having to start Hooiveld/Fox. Although seeing that Fox hasn't even made the bench for first two games suggests that Clyne will be back up left back for now We need our fullbacks to have pace. There are not too many CBs who would be as fast as is needed. CBs at fullback generally look stodgy ans slow.
jethro Posted 24 August, 2013 Posted 24 August, 2013 he has got to be quicker receiving & giving otherwise he will get clattered more

I don't know how old (you) are Olalana....? but it's a bit unfair to lay any form of criticism on young Luke (at present). He was amongst the youngest of the Prem. debutants last season, but still got more games than any other player in his age group, and many who are older and more experienced. YES.. he still learning his trade, and there are flaws in his game, but he'll learn and if this is the starting point ..ask yourself how good can he become... in say 3-5 years time.? .. for my money, a 17 year old.. (sorry he's 18 now - isn't he).... to put in some of the performances that he did last season, puts him way ahead of any of his predecessors, and a lot of others far more experienced in the Prem.

CB Saint Posted 25 August, 2013 Posted 25 August, 2013 Yeah, he's sh ite, should have sold him to to arsenal. Give me Danny fox any time.
S-Clarke Posted 25 August, 2013 Posted 25 August, 2013 Yeah, he's sh ite, should have sold him to to arsenal. Give me Danny fox any time. I don't think anyone actually said that, did they?
david in sweden Posted 27 August, 2013 Posted 27 August, 2013 Yeah, he's sh ite, should have sold him to to arsenal. Give me Danny fox any time. well, as Fox must be on the short list for " our reserve side " that will play Barnsley tonight....you'll be compare them and make a judgement - won't you ?
tomf05 Posted 27 August, 2013 Posted 27 August, 2013 From what I saw on sat it wasn't really a matter of speed it was a proper 50/50 race for the ball and a pretty late body check from the Sunderland lad.
