A 5 year deal, I hope he doesn't turn out like Sylla or Salifou or Makoun or Bradley or Holman or Dawkins or Djemba Djemba or Berson Christ we have signed some dross in recent years. These signings seem a bit... random? What's Nakamba got to do with them? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Farlz 2,897 Report post Posted August 1 Training today so I'm going to guess his work permit or whatever is sorted. Good chance he'll play on Saturday and likely start against Spurs then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah but what about the midfielders that did work out, like Milner, Petrov, Delph, Hourihane, McGinn etc? He could just as easily turn out like those.

On a serious note, I think wilko154 decided to reference many of the dodgy midfielders we’ve signed over the last couple of decades as Marvelous is also a midfielder. Also, perhaps wilko154 doesn’t know much about Marvelous and sees him similar to the midfielders he listed as a bit of an unknown entities when they signed? Just guessing here. Once again, I”m happy to trust Deano and his team on this one. I’m hoping Marvelous is a non-stop, ball winning terrier who can also pick a decent pass or two.

MaVilla 2,713 Report post Posted August 1 looks like a very combative midfielder. Wonder if Nakamba or Luiz will be first choice DM initially? I hope to the lord it isnt Hourihane for Spurs... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
