Hopefully he's better than what we've got, but we'll have to wait and see. Meanwhile, we'll have to cull a few. I fear the results of rotating our superabundance of central defenders, none of whom is the big noisy guy who will dominate the middle while the others go wandering physically or mentally.
I appreciate what Italian journalists are saying but excuse me if I'm keeping my feet on the ground firmly for this one, I'm still waiting for Steve Beleck to be the next Jesus.
I think he started 2 and came on as sub 9 times playing 250 mins in total. http://www.worldfootball.net/team_performance/parma-fc/ita-serie-a-2013-2014/ But a back up bench player for Parma who came 6th last season could and should be plenty good enough for The Championship. Am excited to see him. It seems the management are full aware of our reliance on Abdi and seem to covering every eventuality for this season. I hope Sannino can perform under pressure because expectations are really going to mount if we have a good start. And mount even more if we have a bad start!
McGugan ended up being an impact player from the bench at Forest. Can see the same happening here if this guy is as good as he's being made out.
I don't care how good this guy is, NO ONE is 'a little bit better than Abdi'. Maybe he was 5 years ago, but not now, never.
Apparently he can play inside left or right, too. I still think it means we need to loan out 2/3 players.
MBS Sport @MBS_Sport 21m More Watford taking Gianni Munari on loan from Parma. If he gets the game-time he will return to his best. Could be a coup! #WFC #WAFC
Having read more this has Abdi/ Cassetti written all over it. I'm in. Just hope we do trim the squad a touch. Fabbrini, Murray/ Battocchio out on loan with recall clauses & one ST.
We have had the youtube video..... We have had the Twitter comments.... We have had the images that make us all jealous... Now for the football manager stats! Positives Good Passing Good Long Shots Very Composed Strong Negative Slow I did a search for players like him and got: Tom Huddlestone Darren Gibson Darren Fletcher Flamini So, very composed, creative, keeps possession, hard working
By the way, whilst I doubt this guy is better than Abdi, as no one is, it's promising that he seems to be highly thought of.
Whoever said he's better than Abdi can do one as far as I'm concerned. So nobody italian that we've never heard of better than a legend. NO FROM ME.
I'm going just of football manager and from that he is slow, composed, methodical, calm etc so would say a possession type deeper player.
Hopefully more like the 'unpredictable chip over the top to an onrushing Matej Vydra', a la Marco Cassetti.
We can Sign as many midfielders as we like. Selling Deeney will mean no promotion this season. It's not just his goals it's his overall contribution to the team. I just can't see the point in this signing.
