    Move him to the left wing in the second half?!

    He didn't have a clue how to play out there it was obvious.

    El Mounir has a lot of work to do to convince me

    Very lightweight and his positioning is all over the place.

    However, he does have quite a bit of skill, is quick and can cross the ball, so there's something to work with.

    If he was 18, I'd be encouraged, but whether he can still improve at his age I'm not sure.

    He better be good

    And very robust as he's the only naturally left sided player in our beautifully balanced squad.

    I'm very optimistic

    So far I've heard...

    Colace not settling and will head the same way as Mostto
    Hume can't last 20 mins
    Moore can't deal with pace
    and now... El Haimour is too lightweight and doesn't have any positioning sense!

    Sounds brilliant so far :D

    Dont really agree. Ok a little light weight, however only as much as JCR or devaney. Looked v good to me, especially in the last 20 mins.

    Campbell-Ryce is stocky and quite tough

    Two words I cannot associate with El Mounir.

    Just my opinion like, I hope all our players do well and succeed.

    Good luck to them all.
