Ched Evans

[Whoopi Goldberg]

Quality tonight,by far the best striker we have at the club,if he's fit he starts

 

[Durutti]

No question he is a quality player with great movement and aggression. I still can't get on board with Evans due to his past actions and will still be happy to see him leave. Give me all the shit you want for that and I won't throw any back as your opinion means as much as mine.

Put his personal life and past to one side, he’s making us all eat our words.

When we signed him we hypothetically said “what if he scores the winner against Rovers?” and we all said it wouldn’t happen so no bother.

Well he didn’t score but my word that was an absolute beast of a MOM performance. Well done Ched 👏

 

[mozzchops]

He had a great game. I didn’t think he was good enough for us, but in the 2 games he’s started he’s shown he is a great asset to the team and squad.

 

[OB1]

Two top quality centre forward performances that we haven’t seen since hugill left

Too much baggage to consider bringing him in originally but now it’s done, purely football opinions we could do worse

 

[California_PNE]

Suits Neil's shape like no one else since hugill, him and riiiiiiis could be sizzling, Neil would never do it though

 

[Durutti]

Put his personal life and past to one side,

I think as fans we have to accept that lots of people can't and won't do that. Ability on the football pitch doesn't change anything for me. Still, played very well again.

 

[sedgwick__7]

Outstanding tonight and deservedly Sky motm.

 

[JK]

Please can we keep this thread football related and on that topic I seriously doubted his ability to play at this level and I so far he has proven me wrong.

Been excellent in the last two games.

 

[Lee Cartwright]

Cracking player

 

[Kitty Kat]

Ched has given us exactly what we've been missing in these last two matches. Striker's nous is priceless, as is his high workrate. Great signing & give him a new 2 year contract pronto 👍

 

[Tuesday Nights]

Most seemed to think Evans’ signing was bad ‘for football reasons’ because he was not good enough to improve the side.
It seems he is, and he has.

 

[justinr73]

He’s a strong, experienced lad whose game suits our style of play.

 

[OOOO3]

Always thought we should have looked at him as an option before now... (obviously once Fleetwood got him) and he offers so much more than the other strikers and knows where the net is. Will also bring the best out of the likes of Riis and Maguire...

Id be thinking about a contract in the summer

 

[SF]

Good addition, we've missed a striker like him for a long time.

Looks like he has a lot left in the tank too.

 

[Durutti]

He’s a strong, experienced lad whose game suits our style of play.

This. We have been a running, fit, physical side without a focal point. Big George would have been immense in this side. Evans is the last piece of the jigsaw for a top half championship side and he fits us perfectly on the pitch.

 

[HunterLionheart]

I didn't think he'd be the one to do it as a goalscorer at this level, but clearly a much better target man than Stockley could ever be, the sort of striker we've been crying out for. Could do with Riis learning from him a bit, he'd be a monster with a bit of that physicality and mean streak.

 

[MBcha]

Don't like him being here.

Played well though.

 

[Pennyhome]

I’m glad we signed him, was at the time and even more so now.

Great strength and holding up, a bit of shithousing

Will chip in with a few goals too , leaves everything out on that pitch

loved it when he took the ref clean out for not giving him a pen 😆

 

[Double J]

Thought he was poor personally.
Shows how bad the strikers we’ve had recent are when he’s being labelled as good
