Re: Jack Harrison
Thought he was the catalyst for a lot of that pressure second half. Lindstrom gets a bit of a let off sometimes for someone who really doesn't provide all that much.
Probably both will be gone in the summer. Harrison did well today though, we'll see what Moyes can do with him going forward.

Re: Jack Harrison
Classic 20 mins at the end with a team sitting back cameo though, we've seen most of the fringe players do this from time to time and then look back to their norm of being awful when they get a start.
Did well but the real test will be how he performs if he starts the derby.

Re: Jack Harrison
It felt very much like a player with a new manager with a point to prove. However, he was excellent and exactly what you want from a sub.AjaxAndy wrote: ↑Sun Feb 09, 2025 11:16 am Classic 20 mins at the end with a team sitting back cameo though, we've seen most of the fringe players do this from time to time and then look back to their norm of being awful when they get a start.

I don’t think Bournemouth played him very well though. Usually, Harrison gets doubled up with nowhere to go, but yesterday he found that space that allowed him to show his quality.
Re: Jack Harrison
First time I've seen him run with the ball towards the box and push the defender back into the box at the same time. Played like he had confidence.
Re: Jack Harrison
I want to see him off the left in a Moyes team, think he could offer the width we lost with Myko out.

Re: Jack Harrison
Thought he was brilliant when he came on. Bit of luck we could have won the game and that was mainly down to him
Deserves to start midweek on the back of that performance. Not like lindstrom has pulled up any trees

Re: Jack Harrison
Bit of a knee jerk to put him straight back in from the start because it really depends on where the space is going to be.
If it’s going to be down the outside, you want Lindstrom. If it’s inside, you want Harrison.
Don’t think it matters much either way. Liverpool are more athletic than us and tactically disciplined and are going to run the match even more so than Bournemouth did in the first half, likely with more cutting edge. Whoever plays is probably going to be a de facto wing back in a backs-against-the-wall performance and they’re both capable of that.
I’d probably go with Lindstrom under the assumption that we’re going to need someone to carry the ball down the touch line when we do have a chance to break but I haven’t watched enough of Liverpool to know where the space is when you break against them.

Re: Jack Harrison
Would like to see him left back in this current system.
He’s a good player, just had a really poor season so far.

Re: Jack Harrison
I don't think he's fast enough or strong enough defensively to play left back, put him up against someone with real pace or a bit of power and he'd really struggle.
He'd be great going the other way, but most teams would instantly target that side when on the attack.

Re: Jack Harrison
I wouldn't say he was slow. I'd actually say he was fast-ish. Definitely enough pace for a defensive wide player.
