Not sure if i've missed something here but in the middle of a relegation battle did we really spend the whole transfer window chasing a player who isn't deemed good enough to go straight into our match day squad. If so well done to all invloved.
Not quite match fit yet. No point playing him like that, as it’ll knock his confidence and we need 11 fully fit players on the pitch. I expect we’ll see him in the next couple of week though - probably start from the bench.
Just let the new manager work with him for a couple of weeks, the player is new to this country and this league and would be better all round if allowed to settle in.
All true I think the point was we really didn't need this kind of player. We needed someone who would come into the team a lot quicker.
Austria has just had a mid-winter break, so he hasn't played any competitive football since last year.
Agree about an instant impact was needed and with a few changes that will come from mcburnie hopefully knarsmullner will come good as well.
We do love signing a player who isn't match fit. "Ooh he's not quite up to scratch yet, give him a few weeks", said week after week. Yeah we really need players who aren't raring to go when we're in a relegation battle.
Exactly, it isn't any good signing a player that might be fit in the next couple of weeks, we needed people who could go straight into the team.
