theboyangel Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 He'll also miss Sunday's match - would rather he sat out yesterday and tomorrow and rest his thigh than risk him and make the injury worse. From what i've seen of him in the first match highlights I think he'll definately be a good player for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 new players seem to be getting injured. Their injuries seem related to fatigue. Clearly not used to the intensive training schedule. Both will become better players here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macca1888 Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I don't know if it's already been mentioned but check out Tonev's run (about 3.00 minutes into the AVTV footage) from the opening tour match in Germany. He looks a talented player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay.P.A Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 This guy is a beast in Fifa! Play him in the number 10 role and shoot from outside the box - he's only rated 67 overall but he's really good. Fast as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulMcGrath_5 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Not featuring again tonight. I really hope he's back for at least 1 or 2 pre season games as he looked really promising in the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MessiWillSignForVilla Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Don't know why, but I've got a feeling Tonev could be this season's Benteke. He probably won't hit the heights Benteke did, but I think he's going to be very highly rated this time next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what Ive seen so far it should be Luna who becomes this seasons Benteke, the problem with that is...have a big club like Sevilla really made a big mistake like that.

Sevilla have been making a lot of mistakes lately. There's a reason they've been losing all their best players and progressively been sliding down the La Liga table. Giving up on a good left back would just be one in a line of errors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamsonwoodVillan Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 My ideal scenario would see Tonev come in on the wing and form a pretty lethal combination with Agbonlahor, allowing Weimann to move inside just behind Benteke. Realistically will be September October at the earliest before we see the best of him in the Premier League though. I've missed any games he's played so far, what kind of player is he? Quick? Technical? A goalscorer? Have high hopes for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to be a bit careful about judging players on pre-season. El-Ahmadi was a world beater in last summers friendlies but looked miles off the pace in the PL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon El Ahmadi gets more stick than he deserves. I can't think of more than two or three appearances in his first season where he was less than "good". High hopes for Tonev as well. He could be a lethal sub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackpotForeigner Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 He needs to relax a bit. Actually, a lot. As many said in the match thread v Malaga his decision making isn't the best so far. He seems to alternate between brilliance and the opposite of brilliance. Once he's relaxed he'll know when to keep it simple and when to try and be brilliant. Despite Woodward raving about him, he was rubbish for much of the time. Had a big part in two goals, though. Overall probably not good enough for a start yet.

OutByEaster? Posted August 10, 2013 Moderator Share Posted August 10, 2013 Agree with crackpot on all counts. The player just needs to relax a bit and stop trying to pack his whole career into every touch of the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_John_10 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Rapid pace and looks good dribbling with the ball. Decision making was poor and I can imagine constantly shooting will piss off other players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
