  1. Got in some great positions again but his confidence is absolutely shot. He could have pulled the trigger a few times quickly and didn't. Bailey needs to be starting ahead of him. He can rebuild his confidence in the cups. His ability isn't in question to me.
  2. I could understand the cheap fouls if we're defending a lead but when chasing the game just shows naivety that you shouldn't expect for someone who's played Champions League and a decent amount of international games. His movement at times was good. Cash ignored him when he was free around/in the box. He's not against slow paced chumps in the PL though and you can't half-arse. We're quite poor in general with the amount of cheap free kicks we give away. A lot of times when the opposition are going nowhere. Either he steps up and we'll take the risk or this carries on and we'll put that £25m elsewhere.

    Sounds promising. If we can bring him in and shift Olsen out to help free up cash for a signing then that would be great.
  4. If we could combine Diaby's getting into shooting positions with Zaniolo's drilled shooting we'd have an absolute monster on our hands. Hopefully they can both step up and both become monsters.

    Feels like the kid who wants to run before he can walk.
  6. He's slowly morphing into Steve Bruce. Does he keep getting beaten up in training or something?
  7. A decent little budget 'horror' for fans of Stranger Things, in terms of 80s nostalgia, teen led cast and a great Synth soundtrack by the brilliant, Le Matos.
  8. For some, that's all they seem to do.
  9. He will come good, he gets himself into great positions. I think the speed of the PL has caught him off guard at times. He snatches at some chances when he seemed calm early on. He'll adjust and next season he'll be a different player. Bailey was like this but a good bit poorer. He wasn't far off an goal/assist for Dougie and an assist for Tielemans. At times he can be quiet but there's usually some sort of chance that comes about through his involvement.
  10. We can't hold off moving anybody on that we don't need too much. Leave it more days for us to get a replacement and Napoli could have moved on to another target and we're stuck with Leandro whilst we've just got his improvement on the books. I get your logic but I don't think it works in the real life game of transfers.
  11. I trust Villa to judge his potential far more than myself going on YouTube and Fotmob. I trust Unai and his coaches to make a player the best they can be if they listen and buy into him. It's great buying big name players like Diaby, Pau and so but you also have to create them to function as a whole. I know little to nothing about the guy but the management we have do and deserve our trust in this move. In relation to Fotmob, whilst I had a quick look, he's played the equivalent of 14.5 full games this season with 2 goals and 6 assists. If he maintained that over a full season, ignoring the chance of bettering it, it would be roughly 43.5 games, 6 goals and 18 assists. If all else fails, he's 6'4" according to Wiki so we can shove him in DM to win headers and be a nuisance.
  12. Maybe they signed their next RB early so they're not ripped off with other clubs knowing they have a decent transfer fee coming in. If Kosta is better then they'll be shooting themselves in the foot not playing him if they're going for titles/Europe.
  13. Heard he's a bit of a pussy when it comes to putting in a tackle.
  14. Very frustrating today when in possession. Pau uses the space either to draw in or skip past. Burnley weren't getting drawn in but instead of using the space it's like he didn't know what to do. I'd prefer Konsa there with a top notch new right back. I say this knowing that I started to lose hope with Konsa last season. I know Diego is coming off a brutal injury but the issues are more decisions rather than physical.
  15. Nope. He got things moving quicker than the Utd physios coming on and I have no doubt the time they'd eat up wouldn't reflect the time added on.
  16. A stinker from him tonight. It's an exception to the rule though. Nothing wrong with calling out a poor game but let's not start turning on players after a few duff results.
  17. Looks better on the left/middle than right touchline. Feigning injury when we've already got 10 mins extra to play through isn't the best of moves. It looked like Moreno was telling him to get up and crack on if he's not injured. I like him though. A weird game to come into but he did well.
  18. His work rate, strength, eye for a pass etc are fantastic but his first touch is ridiculous. His ability to receive drilled in passes from defence is absolutely vital to us.
  19. There was a question of why Konsa at right back tonight from some. Diego humbled and made Haaland look nothing short of ordinary today and that is why Konsa stayed out wide. I love Ezri but if Cash was out wide and Ezri was on Haaland, it may have been different. He can hold his own but Diego showed brute strength that was mental.
  20. He showed a more aggressive progressive side to his game today. (Higher up the field) Made it look so easy at times when it was anything but.
  21. A kindly reminder that patience is a virtue. Absolute class.
  22. I wrote off McGinn and Bailey so I'm not going to make the same mistake here. He's doing what they both did in trying too hard to make an impact. It results in losing possession and looking poor. It's evident the guy has everything needed to succeed physically and technically. Mentally is where it will fully click.
  23. He was really good at times today. The cut-backs when he's flowing are frustrating, instead of just being strong and driving through but there was a lot to like this evening.
