thunderball Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 When everyone is fit we have an excellent squad. It’s subtle, but Monchi has really added very decent quality and versatility with his signings. Roger’s looks built for the PL and seemingly great business. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always thought of Buendia as being capable of unlocking any defence. I am not saying this will always be the case but right now, I think Buendia is a much better footballer. Buendia is capable of it but is wildly inconsistent. His best through balls are world class but there are also times when his short passes aren't particularly good. Of course Buendia's a better overall player now as passing is just one aspect of a footballer's game, but Buendia was bought as a ready-made player and cost more than 4 times what Rogers did, so the expectation levels are much higher too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the potential but the kid is too raw. Loan needed next season One of many that could be highlighted. Our fanbase is the opposite of supportive at times. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 A great goal but he did loose the ball leading to their third goal in a dangerous area of the pitch. He's learning though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa89 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Looks very good but needs to improve his fitness. Faded before he was taken off. A young lad like that should be able for 90 mins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll get there. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Looks like an absolute baller and a bargain at 15m, and he's going to be some player but man was gasping for air after 10 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 they way he took the ball, turned, moved, shot, scored. just pure quality. if he can develop his wider game to suit Emery, he will be an absolute diamond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom13 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 I think we signed him because he's good in tight spaces, and he showed that today with some lovely footwork for the goal. Classy player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 We bought Rogers because Ramsey is the only specialist we have on that left hand side, we needed another option there whether Rogers or someone else, it's an added bonus that he can also play as a No.10 or in that area, so when Ramsey returns, if selected they can both play in the same team. If anything Rogers is more of a threat to Buendia for a place in the starting eleven than Ramsey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If true, given Ramsey's horrendous year of injuries, that will turn out to be a poor strategic decision, We won't sell below Ramsey's worth and we won't get Ramsey's worth after this washout season.
