    Gio would only maybe work if we have money to throw at it, we don’t. We need a big personality to come in and pick these current players off the floor. Gio has disaster written all over it. 
     

    Couldn't disagree more mate. GVB is a perfect match for us. A global name like Stevie G and young and ambitious. He also knows what it's all about to represent our magnificent club.

     

    GVB for me all the way.

    Based solely on the minutes he's had so far, he has looked utterly abysmal.

    So far - thank fuck he wasn't a big money signing.

    Few of the signs have been good - poor close control, poor shooting, poor positionally, doesn't want to run in behind, isn't slow but not lightening quick either etc.

    Of course he has plenty of time to bed in and in the weeks and months to come he may start to show more but I don't think it's unfair to judge how he's looked up to now. What would be unfair would be to keep that judgment and be on his back even if he actually starts to improve loads and start to show he's a player.

    Unfair imo. He needs more time to show what he can do imo.

    Pre -season was a bit dull for me I am not a big fan of the 11 subs at halftime, but I understand why it happens. But if you look at our per season last year for the games in France we were straight into games with as strong a starting 11 as possible, started well and didn't really slow down from then on. 

    Yesterday and against Malmo we looked like the team of February / March 2019-20 with no real cohesion and everyone just wanting that extra touch of the ball. Now that could be down to slow distribution from back to front or pish poor movement from our midfield and front men to provide options.

    A blind man can see that playing what looks like three holding midfielders is not going to work. Hoping that come Tuesday either Hagi is back or he tweaks the midfield by going to a two of Davis - Lundstram with three of Kent - Aribo - Wright and Alfie up top.

    Good post. Agree with all of that.
