    Has said he will receive his Spanish citizenship this year. There's a real talent in there, just needs the right manager to get his decision-making up to snuff. Something is amiss though... Malaga are an appalling side and he's not getting a look in.

    He came on in their last game in the second half in his first appearance after injury.

    Unamiss.

    Yet some think it will be great to finally get him over and he's poised to make an impression in the prem. Just another Issac Success.

    I have to say I'm not sure he's going to come here and have the impact people are hoping for. Obviously I hope he turns into the next Neymar for us but his mentality over the past couple if years doesn't appear to have been great. Even when he was fit and playing regularly he was exciting but very raw and incredibly wasteful and frustrating with the ball. Hopefully he realises this summer is a huge chance for him and he gets his head down and impresses during pre-season.

    Surely we'll cut our losses this summer and sell him?

    I thought he had a good tournament in U20 World Cup,penalty miss aside, or am I mistaken?

    Yes but he was still very inconsistent and wasteful. Decision making was atrocious!

    The curse of the young player?
    Rashford's wasn't so clever on Friday night either I recall.
    I'd like to see him,if only to name him 'Bertie'.
    Simple things!
     
  11. Didn't make it by his 20th birthday, not good enough get rid

    Yes he did, to the point that the coach of the winners stood in front of a panel and said he was one of the best players.

    However that would work against the ****wits argument that he's ****, so we'll just say his 'decision making' was bad instead.

    At Top Golf according to his Instagram story thing.

    Not clear if it was the Watford one as I couldn't see Costco's in the background.

    First thing that Lorenzo player liaison/translator guy does is show people Top Golf. They get a platinum card for there before they've even seen where they'll be living.

    If the rumours about Vokes are true, I can't see Javi wanting them both in the squad. Too similar.

    You have to say that between Success, Richarlison and Penaranda we do potentially (attitudes, fitness and actual ability pending) have some very exciting, young, attacking players at the club.

    You can add me to that group as I would be fantastic if not for my attitude, fitness and ability. Oh, ....."young".....

    Ability. They all shown, they have. Especially Richarlison.
    Let's hope JG can get the best out of them.

    Do they share it on a rota basis?

    I wonder how many of these medical videos get filmed and then shredded when they find a problem!

    Interesting to me that everyone's profiles on the official site have been updated with them posing in the new kit, including all the new signings and returning players like Success and Amrabat, but no sign of Penaranda. Maybe we still won't see him in a Watford shirt after all?

    That is odd. Even Dja Djedje has made the cut.

    Do you think they were all asked to look moody or that they'd all received some terrible news just before the photo shoot?

    Doesn't look promising if they've even included wasters like Oulare, Zeegelaar and Djedje...

    If he's not got a work permit yet, then no doubt him appearing on our site already as an official, contracted player would imply that we're violating some employment law. There is probably still some government paperwork to be sorted out.

    If we're relying on a work permit, he won't play for us. He's in an infinitely worse position than last season, as he's barely played, has lost his place in the senior Venezuela team and isn't coming off the back of a successful age group tournament so won't qualify as an exceptional talent. The only way he's playing for us is if he's qualified for a Spanish passport.
