Compare Kyle Joseph to another player?

[HatfulofHollow]

Couldn't get there on Saturday due to a family commitment and so have yet to see Mr Joseph in action - if you were to describe him as being like one other player, who would you say?

 

[BFC4EVA]

Not seen enough of Kyle Joseph yet to be able to compare him to another one of our players

 

[hills98]

He's strong looking, not afraid of going shoulder to shoulder with defenders but is not massively tall (I'd guess 6ft?), mobile but not rapid pace, movement always looks good and he can score with feet or head but particularly seems to have a decent left foot.

Can't think of a great comparison but style wise, maybe a Mark Cullen type (but slightly taller)?

6ft 1 according ti wiki

 

[straightatthewall]

Marc Joseph

 

[hertfordseasider]

Alan Shearer!!

 

[St_Ives_Seasider]

Don’t ask me why but the first player that came to my mind when I watched him on Saturday was Alan Gow

 

[onlyonepool]

Ooh Andy Garner

By left foot do you mean right foot?

Dean Saunders

Agree with BFC4EVA we've seen nothing of him yet to make any comparisons
He took his goal brilliantly though and one thing that is 100% guaranteed is that as soon as he has a poor game then the usual suspects on here will be slagging him off to fcuk.

 

[AngelBFC]

Harry Kane

 

[hills98]

By left foot do you mean right foot?

No sorry I meant to suggest he looks very 2 footed, scores goals from outside the box with his left foot. Also in the training video with Gabriel you really couldn't tell which footed he was. It's a great and rare attribute to have IMO.

 

[hills98]

Alan Shearer!!

Style wise he was the first who sprang to mind, but I knew that would be misconstrued as a comparison of ability so I went safe with Cullen (ps pretty sure he's better than Cullen!).

 

[rememberlesshannon]

Akinfenwa

 

[NewburyOne]

He's bigger than I remember, seems to have filled out a little. He's a bit like Jerry in terms of pace, quick but not rapid. He took his goal very well but forming a comparison based on 30mins of league football isn't easy. Maybe James Quinn if I were pushed

 

[Wizzerboy]

Kevin Stewart

 

[AllezBlackpool]

Fernando Torres

 

[Burnnazzer]

Beesley

 

[LWYRUP]

Robbie Mulhern

 

[mad-link]

Michael Laudrup

Hell of an assessment based on very little football. Impressive (not sarky either).

 

[AlternativeSeaside]

Up until this last week he’s reminded me of the Scarlet Pimpernel.

 

[Ghost_of_Max]

Was there a bit of Keigan Parker in there?

 

[no9]

Some goal on Saturday, the filming from the pitch really shows how good it was

 

[April13th1970]

I compared him to Marvin Ekpiteta

and concluded they're totally different

 

[BigHandsOliverKahn]

Marc Joseph

or Richie Kyle

 

[straightatthewall]

or Richie Kyle

Thats pushing it

I'm no expert, but I always rated him for Wigan when he came through there. I was hopeful when we signed him that he'd be a cracker and so far I think he can be (hopefully the injuries are behind him and not a pattern like poor old Lavs)

Unless you're called Ian Chisnall

Who?

Chizzy
An old thread but sums him up perfectly.

By the time Chizzy commentates he'll be Lesley Joseph!

 

[Grayth]

Oddly, I thought Scott Vernon with pace. Tall and tidy on the ball but not really a physical target man type. Better feet than Beesley.

Maybe a bit of Ryan Hardie in there?

 

[Parky1953]

Ooh Andy Garner

My misses has a friend with the name of Rachel Garner. Every time she mentions her, I can’t help myself…

Uh Rachel Garner!

It will never grow old for me!

We’ve not seen enough of the lad. Great finish Saturday with his right but that’s all we have at the moment. I’m pretty sure I read great things about him when he signed, so hopefully he’ll shine starting Saturday.

 

[Wizaard]

I compared him to Lionel Messi. He wasn't as good.

 

[The Catcher in the Rye]

I’ve just compared him to a Panini sticker of Peter Beardsley and I can confirm they look nothing alike

Be lovely to come back to this thread in 6 months and say Haaland

Lewis Hamilton... bugger wrong sport :(
