Ronald Pereira Martins 14:34 - Feb 18 with 1500 viewssw02sea

Two questions.

1)Can someone please explain to me why this guy seems to be the first name on the team sheet?
2) How come he hardly gets ever gets dropped?

Majority on here do not or cannot get to games
Does that mean their views are less relevant than those who do
Television cameras get everywhere and showcase the skills and abilities or not that players have
Ron bearing down on goal then losing the ball , Ron shooting ten yds wide ,or crossing to the corner glad is what happened
Fact

This is Uber fan syndrome we are seeing

Don’t go, you have no right to comment

Nah


You need a certain level of perception to pick up what’s going on off the ball whether you’re at the game or not.

Plenty of people at the game won’t notice the graft Ronald puts in or his positional awareness covering his fullback. All they’ll see is him shifting it onto his right foot and shooting low and hard at the opposite corner.

I’ll admit he tries the same shot nearly every time and it rarely works.

If you haven’t got that perception, you’ll get just as much, probably more, from watching a stream.

Had a good chat with one of the club’s ambassadors regarding Ronald, and we both have the same opinion, offensively, and that’s the prime attribute for a winger, he’s very frustrating.

Thats fair. I have thought for a while he would be more suited to three at the back with wing backs, you could say similar about Key. The decision the coaches have to make is do we sacrifice something up top for defensive cover or use more flair up the pitch and sacrifice the cover. That's what a coach is paid for.

This is absolutely true. He gets into great positions multiple times most games, but very rarely capitalises on it. Certainly frustrating.

However, with any of our right backs at the moment, he’s a better bet than the type of winger who gets bums off seats, but doesn’t do the dirty work. Off the top of my head, Montero, Oko-Flex and possibly Inoussa would be in that category.

Matos can see it. He’s not picking Ronald purely on his attacking

Montero, although often injured, on his day was one of the best wingers we had in the premier league. Unplayable on times.

Yes, I know.

On his day he was superb. He had about four of them in the Premier League.

He was more consistently effective when we got relegated because he was just levels above most championship fullbacks.

He left his fullback exposed every single game. Not everyone notices that and it doesn’t matter on the odd occasion he roasted the fullback like the Arsenal and Chelsea games. What would tend to happen is our fullback would be left exposed to a 2v1 and would then get the blame for opponents passing their way past him.

That type of winger is great if you’ve got a prime Naughton or even Tate behind him. Where we are now with Galbraith, a midfielder who drops into midfield regularly or Key who isn’t at his best and likes to bomb on anyway, we need a winger who protects them.

Ronald isn’t ideal. I’d prefer a Routledge or Dyer type. He’s just the most suited to it we have at the moment.

2nd top goalscorer this season.
2nd for assists this season.

Not those pesky facts again.


I thought one of our major problems was, we dont create enough good chances and so, dont score enough goals?

Our wing play on either side is hardly brilliant but Ronald gets a lot more time on the pitch than Eom so gets a lot more of the ball i think. What he does with that isnt good enough. I would have to see derailed stats to be sure of that but Ronald certainly tackles better than he crosses.

He's in the game a lot, as up to now we have mainly focussed attack down the right. That workload could/should be shared out a bit more evenly now with another pacey wingers in Nunes now on the books so that may improve his quality a bit
He certainly needs to work on his "end product" but he's a grafter and gives his all for the cause. Goes down like he's been shot at every chance though which is frustrating as I don't think he's won a penalty all season!


I think we've only had one penalty all season, which was the foul on Galbraith in the Leicester game. We just don't get given penalties!

Remember a season when it seemed as if we didn't get penalties and up pops Leon Britton in the box and penalty won. Skillful players like Galbraith and Britton knowing and timing things right to win the penalty,.we haven't got the ball in the box enough to players who have good tricky ball control who invite challenges, Cullen experience gets him in good positions in the box but often he has to resort to one touch plays, I personally would like to see Widell in the team more as his on the ball skill level is better than Cullen although he is still finding his feet at Championship level being himdered by injury to find that knack of getting goals or penalties.
Ronald's timing of the going down under contact often is poor or over exaggerated but quite often he is being foul
Ronald has good body strength to knock defenders off the ball, we have seen it when quick or high balls are played to him and it is one of the reasons that they are, the fact a number of players go down under the slightest of touches to gain an advantage should not be surprise but often defenders test their opposition forwards resolve with bad tackles from behind Ronald knows this and has had a number of full back on yellow cards but then sometimes we we stopped playing through Ronald, when we did a number of teams have had to replace the fullbacks for fear of a second.
We have played the long high ball up to Ronald and Vipotnik but haven't had anyone close to take advantage of their presence and to be fair Vipotnik has only this season started being effective in the aerial battles but that does seem to be changing under Matos, little things are beginning to click , the more they do the better but players like Ronald need quick ball and support if that support is not forthcoming then often a winger can look a lot worse than they are, O'Brien's play and experience meant more forward players were brought into the game early, the same can said under Matos's coaching giving forward time and space on the ball to create scoring opportunities a number of teams have realised this and have resorted to sitting deep again rather than try and press us high and as Sheffield Wednesday did suffer the consequences.

Matos's now needs to ensure he has players who can break down those deep lying deference while no over committing players to suffer the counter attacks giving away goals,freekick in dangerous areas and corners against teams known to cause problems at set pieces.
