What I will say is that he’s better of starting home matches. Matches where we do not play simply counter attack. Possession based is all that he’s capable of.

For crying out loud people, give the kid a chance. He has already shown flashes of brilliance in what he can do, lets give him a decent run of games. starting games before taking hard decisions.

Impressed by Roy's switch of tactic to start Meyer, it meant that Burnley couldn't predict what was coming. Kouyate should start every game imho. And guess what, we won!

It’s unfair to judge Meyer on today’s game.
In the home game against Burnley he was probably our most effective player and in today’s game he was probably our least effective player.
I think he needs a run of games which hopefully he’ll get at the end of the season when we appear safe.
I thought our passing in general was sloppy in the first half today and this had effect on the rhythm of our play which certainly didn’t help Meyer as he likes to get on the ball and co-ordinate play.

I did go to the game and was pleased to see him starting after all the cries for his inclusion from the the start by the forum. He had no impact of any significance on the game. When pressed and tackled he appeared to have no answer. In other games when he has come on as a substitute he has been very effective playing little triangles in forward positions. Today’s game did not enable him to do that. It might be he will be more effective against the top six type sides than the blood and thunder type teams. Not saying he is not a good player just think he is more limited in adapting to different styles of opposition than the likes of Jimmy Mac. Schlupp and Kouyate
