dyslexic nam 11,031 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Off the bench for a goal-making play and a sweet composed finish to kill the game. That is how you make the best use of 30 minutes. Very nice. Ruffian, Kadenge, canadasoccer20 and 3 others 6 Link to post Share on other sites
sebdeserio 324 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Involved in both goals he was on for. His second half of the season is looking very positive can't wait for Lille vs Ajax. dyslexic nam, canadasoccer20 and Dominic94 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Aird25 1,495 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I've questioned playing him as a #9 before, but that was an excellent touch and movement with his back to goal. He completely lost the defenders Obinna 1 Link to post Share on other sites

If he can keep us his current form he may just do both. Nate3322 and Obinna 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Kadenge 2,255 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) So Ikone doing a dance routine with David after he scored?...lol I think he's won him over. Seriously though, if Lille's forwards and mids actually keep passing the ball like they did leading up to the 2 goals, Lille could actually become a powerhouse team.

N1ckbr0wn 1,072 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 When the passes weren’t coming his way, he kept making runs. When the shots weren’t going in, he kept shooting. When the fans/media questioned his ability, he worked even harder. This is the definition of a Good Canadian Boy.

Still not a huge Ikone fan but it is great to see the camaraderie. I know that it is easy to be friendly when things are going well, but he does seem to be integrating well. Like you said, the main thing will be if they continue to find him with passes like today. Link to post Share on other sites
El Diego 1,013 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I often check a certain Lille's supporters forum to get their opinions on their team. It is in French so I used Google translate which allows me a working understanding of what they are saying. Anyway, there was a video posted of the players celebrating after the match. Ikone is on his phone, and some posters there were commenting on it (mostly negatively, saying he is a loner and not part of the squad -- doesn't sound like the first time he's been on his phone in such a situation). One poster said: "Fortunately he wears gloves from September to May, otherwise he would be on his cell phone during the match too." Figured you guys would get a kick out of that line. johnyb 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I gather that Araujo was poor when he first came, but he won the fans around. Bamba took a year as well. They love Benjamin Andre and Burak Yilmaz. Obinna 1 Link to post Share on other sites
