Popular Post chappy Posted November 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 29, 2021 Excellent again. If Luiz or McGinn had put in these two performances back to back I don’t think there would be as many posts in their threads saying they’re not very good footballers. Seems like people have made their mind up on Marv and don’t want to change it. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like he's got the eye for a pass that's required, and if he's playing as a true central midfielder he'll be 20-30 yards further forward than he has been under Deano. I was going to suggest Dougie as the Cowans equivalent, he can certainly pass well (maybe not to Sid levels though) - but we've not seen him tried in that role as yet, so dunno. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam-AVFC Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Nakamba has had a few excellent games in a row before. I'm not going to get too carried away until he's not had a stinker in 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skarroki Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 He's our Wilson Palacios. We just need a Modric and Bale for him to pass it 2 yards to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Wednesday, we will see how much he has really improved or if it's like his cameos last season where he was quite good. So far when I've seen him play against City, he loses his discipline (positionally) when they are passing in their neat little patterns and shoots out of the line leaving space for their players to exploit. This works against your Palaces and so on because they are not as good on the ball as City. I think most teams struggle with city's slick passing and moving and when they lose it, they close down, like few other teams.....they suck the oxygen from you. The interesting this is, Palace actually played well against them, when they met. 12 hours ago, NurembergVillan said: Could Douglas Luiz do that job?

I think he is suited better, further forward, sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you have missed the context.....He has played great the last few games, of course we can enjoy that. The conversation was about his long term inclusion...hence the doubt.

PussEKatt Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Another way to put it,is that he has played better since SG arrived.Long may it continue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
