I think there is no way Carvalho is coming in to play on the wing, other than sporadically. You would imagine we made a commitment to play him in his favoured position down the middle and that would be a major part of what sold us to both him and Liverpool.
You’re correct no doubting you, for this level though I understand the vision, I aren’t sure Burnley/Fulham had one and dominated the league.
Everyone on this board even without coaching badges or medical certs knew Vinagre was a sick note. How can you say Fabio isn’t replacing twine they are both 10’s.
The Twine slander is ridiculous, he’s been playing out of position where normally our best player is, think people need to lower their expectations, he’s not going to do what Philogene does. He’s an absolute work horse and an intelligent player that is obviously trusted by the manager, I feel like he’ll improve even more once he has better players around him too. 7 goal involvements so far is not bad at all.
How many goalkeepers have we actually got on our books? Ryan Allsop Matt Ingram Timothee Lo-Tutala David Robson Harvey Cartwright (Loan at Grimsby) Owen Foster David Robson Ivor Pandur (Incoming) Potentially 8 keepers. Surely some have to be on the way out? You can never have enough Keepers!
I think you'll find there's only one David Robson. The youth teams need keepers as well, you can't get rid of all of them.
Why do you keep saying this with some pretence of authority? He played wide at Liverpool and did at Fulham too on occasion.
I never said no one knew Vinagre was not a sick and as for Twine it seems LR is happy with him where ever he decides to play him i don't think he is a direct replacement i think he has been added to give the squad more of a threat. LR on Twine, "He's now got three goals in six games – that was always going to come for him because his technical quality on free-kicks is top, his arrivals in box positions are really good and he fits in completely with the culture of the group, the group absolutely adore him," said Rosenior. "He seems happy at the moment. I like to see players enjoying themselves and I've got a group who enjoy themselves on the pitch and enjoy each other's company off the pitch as well. "If you don't enjoy yourself you don't maximise your potential.
Pretty sure that in the couple of games he's played against us for Fulham he was down the middle, behind Mitrovic. He scored against us in the away game, didn't he? ****er.
Klopps been quite effusive about his versatility in the past. The fact he can play in a number of positions is clearly seen as an asset to be developed as much as any other aspect of his game.
