mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Was glad to see Aribo back last night and from what I could make out in the horrible conditions, he is going to be an absolutely key player for us. I think he is likely to take Hagi's spot in the team and adds a bit of physicality that we have are missing in that area. Hagi's form has been a bit hit or miss so far this season, but I have absolutely no doubt that Gerrard will improve him with some training, like we are seeing from so many of the team, and he will improve and become a great player for us.

STEPPS BOY 73,805 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Big season this for Aribo. A couple of fleeting glimpses here and there isn’t good enough. Looks like he’ll be deployed in that wide right position but i’m not sure that’s his best position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmcf 34,093 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 A key player for us this season , he really us a player you love to watch . While the team runs like a well oiled machine, he and Kent have that wee special bit extra that can produce something out of nothing . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smile 26,600 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 The thing is we have not missed him gives you the idea of our strength this season, you thought we would have as he was one of our standout players in the early games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dado'sMulls 2,610 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Even last night in that weather some of his touches and close control was incredible. He's gonna be an awesome player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broxi 11,473 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Was curious to see if he'd pick up where he left off, hardly any real time to prove it but absolutely looks like he has. He should not be played on the right though. I would like to see one of these: Morelos Kent Aribo Roofe Zungu Kamara Roofe Kent Aribo Hagi Zungu Kamara Kent Morelos Roofe Aribo Zungu Kamara Zungu or Davis, whoever it ends up being. But Aribo will be wasted on the right I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersonic 4,654 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Looked so good in preseason and before the injury. Not much point in overthinking it but I've wondered if he might've made a difference in the draws away to Livi and Hibs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

philiprfc 1,799 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 I was saying last night, it's pretty mad that we've still got Aribo and Roofe to come back fully into this team, and this Zungu lad too who I'm assuming will be getting game time in the coming weeks. Exciting stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopCat 4,511 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Not sure what Joes best position is but he's such a good player he has to start most of our games assuming he's 100% fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GA1972 9,495 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 When he gets a run he’ll be the best player in the league, even better than Kent He needs to be played in the middle though not wide Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the expense of Arfield? No thanks! Zungu is at the bottom of the pile for a midfield role and no evidence(at the moment) should anyone want to be starting him. Would agree with this, Arfield has really come back onto a game in recent weeks. I thought his legs were gone last season but he looks back to his best now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different positions/roles and he was likely signed as a starter and will be given his chance there when he’s fit. Zungu will compete with Davis and Jack, less so Arfield Any other new signing would be assumed to go straight into the team in these kind of things. The point is the position of Aribo the rest didn’t matter anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
