    At 17 years old, I think you should keep your mouth closed and got on with it.

    I don’t think you should be saying where you fancy playing and where you don’t.

    It’s only my opinion of course.

    You see players played out of position all the time, you do it for the team.

    If he’s played there again and is ineffective, it then reflects badly on Mowbray for putting him there after Jobe says he don’t fancy it.

    Im not having a go at Jobe btw. I just think it’s a lack of experience and one he will learn from.

    Any sign of Aouchiche here? Roberts is back as expected.

    Thinking about it, it's a hugely depleted group (no Pritchard, no Ellis Taylor etc), it may just be that they're doing their warm ups in a couple of groups. There was talk of an internal or behind closed door friendly in the week, maybe those involved or not involved are doing more or less recovery work.

    I now personally think there's too many not there to be worried about it.

    Edit: no Hemir either.

    Edit again: or Seelt.

    We have 4 strikers now, I see no reason why he should have to play up top for mor than a game or two ( that’s my opinion ).

    Rusyn looks fit and sharp
    A bit different. Direct with an eye for goal.
    Wont expect too much too soon but got a good feeling about this lad.

    Gelhardt with a concealed cosh is how I see him.

    Not a bad comparison and he does look hard as nails.
    I think he is probably what we were trying to turn Gelhardt into.
    Gelhardt hadn't played a full 90 before we got him so it was a big learning curve.
    This lad has a lot of games under his belt and seems to know where the net is

    No reason to think he is. This is likely the 1st training session since the Southampton game

    Per the 'who are you' article about Rusyn in ALS the Ukrainian fan or writer bloke appraising him reckons he's an 'unorthodox attacker' but been primarily used on the left wing and not to be used as a no.9 at this stage, so three strikers and an option (assuming Mayenda can play striker).

    I'm not against it if it means we have the option to play different systems, as I think we got a bit predictable end of last year, albeit some teams could do nowt about it, which is true of a lot of good teams. Not saying we're anywhere near this standard but Man City are relatively predictable, you just can't stop it.

    I think a lot relies on burstow being up to scratch in the 9 role. From what I've seen I think Hemir will be a good option in that role, with a bit more time.

    A more robust Broadhead is what I’m hoping for.
