Nwakali

Didn't see yesterday apart from the goal, but saw him a couple of games and what stood out was that his technique is just a step above everyone else on the pitch. Makes it look easy.

 

Wasn't Dan Cowley the last Arsenal mid?

Though he did enough with us to guarantee a decent enough lower league career

 

Yep. Does simple things, very very well. Can't see him being with us for long, hope I'm wrong.

 

you are right. He was a loanee. Frimpong signed on a permanent basis but did not stay long.

 

So far so good. But a couple of games is no basis for judging a player. We need to see consistency and an ability to impact games.

Think the criticism of Clarke is way off. He came not fit and it’s taken this long to get match fit. I’d say he’s handled it well

 

He wasn’t best by a distance, and someone had to get man of the match, it proved nothing.

 

We'll soon coach that nonsense out of him.

 

Usually the player who stands out gets motm.

 

Thanks for sharing, enjoyed watching that.

"He's not only disgraced himself, he's disgraced his family" has to be the most cutting thing I've ever heard about a player playing for Barnsley

 

Granted very early days but that seems a cracking bit of business on the face of it

 

Completely agree. My fear is now because he's had a good few cameos, people will think he's Pirlo, and if he drops off and doesn't play great for 2 or 3 games, it'll get people on his back because his standards have been set too high.

He does look great. I've got no fear of him being poached any time soon though because I don't know if he can maintain such a good start. I hope he can, can't think of any particular reasons why he can't. But he's certainly an exciting prospect for us!

 

We need someone with real pace to get on to his through balls down the channels.

 

Watters and Humphrys are both pretty quick

 

We might get half a season out of him a la Vaz Te.

 

There's room for both to play, I think they are 2 great players to build the team round

 

A fit Watters & Humphrys would offer a lot in terms of pace. Phillips or DKD following in. We have little in the way of cover, or alternatives. Jalo would have been one. Marsh might figure as a sub, but I think he's not at the level now. Cosgrove is just useless.

Nwakali is a blinding signing. If we can give him targets for runs, we have a good chance, if we can recruit an extra fast striker up front.

 

Don't think vaz te was on a long contract was he?

 

500k release clause

 

If Neerav can drop £12m on a couple of pokey flats in a slum, I'm sure he can find the £50m required for Rashford to ensure promotion, needs to get it sorted before fowls beat us to him.
