Eom

I’ve been critical of him, and still am (he should never be in the starting 11) but he is playing in a poor side, and low on confidence and direction. I wouldn’t perform to my best if I was shipped out to South Korea to a failing company.

And working for the delivery driver.

Eom is another player who has regressed over the course of the season under Williams.

When he first came here he might not have had end product but his driving runs from the touchline to the corner of the opposing box and how hard he was to shift off the ball were real features of his. Now he looks like he couldn't trap a bag of cement and never tries to take his man on, all of his forward attacking ambition and confidence has been drained out of him.

Eom is desperate for a goal or an assist, he has hit the woodwork three times and missed a number of opportunities that a player who had more confidence / less pressure to produce would have put away with ease.

Even his chance that was set up against Bristol he just didn't realise / didn't have the confidence to take a touch rather than smashing O'Brien's cross first time. It had been set up for him on a silver platter and he had the time easily to take a touch and just direct it to one of the corners.

It's hard to judge players in a crap team. Are they crap because they're crap players? Are they crap because of the manager? Are they playing crap because so many of their teammates are crap and would actually play quite well in a better team?

As an example, Scott McTominay looked like a bang average midfielder with Man United, who were mostly pretty bad while he was there. He's now playing brilliantly for Napoli by all accounts and they're top of Serie A. Mega flop Antony has scored 2 in his first 3 games for Real Betis.
