Marvelous has been at the club a few days and would probably benefit from another week training with the team. The mistake would be starting him. Just because Hourihane starts today doesn’t mean he is a shoe in for a starting position next week. Fair point 1 Link to post Share on other sites

villalad21 5,703 Posted August 3, 2019 Report Share Posted August 3, 2019 Smith will ease him in by the looks of it. Probably took that "doing a fulham" thing serious. Link to post Share on other sites

brummybloke 605 Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 A good 2 weeks or so training with the squad I think before we see him unless hes a machine and fits in 100% straight from the off. But then do you drop connor ? Link to post Share on other sites
Morley_crosses_to_Withe 3,096 Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 Sooooo, does anyone know whether he played or not? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

One player may be far better than another but it's how they 'fit' around the rest of the team. For the weaknesses ch has he also makes up for it with forward play. I would like to see all our new signings, but I think they will be carefully integrated into the team, not at the expense of the rest of the team.

Well as douglas is "supposed" to be joining up with the team on Monday (who knows if true), I would just select the best player for the role, so either Luiz or Nakamba.

DCJonah 13,315 Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 Listened to the latest sky transfer podcast, they had a belgium football expert on. He said he was surprised that a prem team had signed him and that he didn't excel in the belgium league like Wesley. I think he's here as back up and development. Luiz being the starter. Sounds like we missed out on phillips Link to post Share on other sites
