sheepyvillian Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 I really hope Nakamba can get a chance and excel with us. Nothing would please me more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arguably, one Marvelous may have offered more than one McGinn and one Barkley against Southampton! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Gotta be in line for a start in place of either McGinn or Barkley. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_eristic Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 He actually had good-to-excellent defensive stats last season, overall league best among CM/DMs in various types of blocks in particular, just tended to look uncomfortable on the ball. If we could get him and Doug working together smoothly, he could prove extremely useful. A more stable midfield defensively strengthens us in both directions, he's worth a try with no cover whatsoever currently coming from McGinn and Barkley. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind that at all and for me Jack, Ross and McGinn behind Ollie, stop the long punts and dominate that midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Problem is I have a feeling Barkley will not be dropped, part of his loan agreement. McGinn although poor in the last two games has goals and assists too, one of them has to be dropped. There is no way Southampton would have been able to waltz through our middle with Marvelous playing, no way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Thought he looked awesome in his cameo. Did you guys see how he picked up the ball and passed it to someone else? Just superb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't need to keep the ball so he put it in the air over his man. He could have hit it harder but after coady(?) headed it the whistle was blown so no big deal.

Surely will be playing in the dm role in Luiz absence. Will be interesting to see how he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Actually thought he played well tonight. As a squad player he's fine. Would never want him starting most games though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
