A touch of class in most of everything he does.
Hopefully our current coaching team don't stuff him up.
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!

The boy can play.Monco Matt wrote:I don't understand the love for Aish. IMO he does a few ok things like hit a target, but, he simply does not get involved enough and ball watches too much. This is the real issue, not his small size and lack of legs, for a mid he is not aggressive enough for mine, has no presence. Opposition does not pay him any attention or respect, he places no fear or concern into the minds of the opposition, it"s like he isn't even out there.......like Cloke tonight, mister invisible.
He's a natural footballer, does things instinctively that aren't as common in the modern footballer as they should be, such as shepherding after laying of a handball and clearing out of dangerous space for others to run into at the right times.
He's also a one-touch player.
Watch him a bit closer and think of Sidebottom, but with more physical presence.

I agree. I don't care whether a player has class or smarts, or whether he looks good, or whether he's an inside or outside player. All I want is a player who can impact the game and help us win. While Aish is showing signs of improving, so far, he is having very little impact on the course of games. Hopefully he'll be vastly better next season, which will be his 4th year of football.Monco Matt wrote:I don't understand the love for Aish.

I think he will be a gem. Will develop into a top notch midfielder if we don't phuck things up.
Nevertheless, I'm starting to see his quality emerging, so hopefully you're right and he really begins to blossom next year.

At the Start just about everyone was calling him a Dud but now people say he is 1 of the Most Important Players in our Team.
Aish could do very similar thing
He is class that the Team needs lot more of

I just don't see it in him.
You just go way too long without seeing him to the point you forget he's even playing. He does some nice things now and then, but ultimately has no impact.
Poor disposal can be improved upon (see Adams, Taylor). Strength in the contest can be improved upon.
Actually getting to where the football is? I'm not sure if that can be improved on especially if endurance isn't the issue, which I don't think it is. He just doesn't know how to read the play at all and I don't know how you learn that.

Playing him more a Midfield and you would see him way more.
