... Robert Koren? I remember when Koren signed for Hull I was personally very dissapointed, he plays that role in behind the striker very well and notches in some lovely and important goals for Hull, just as he had done for a long time for WBA. But after seeing Marshall play the last 3/4 games in the same position I can say with a bit of confidence that Ben will be a brilliant player and will be better than the Slovenian. I think we should be building the side around the lad and I can see great success (maybe an England call-up) if he continues as he has done.
He is a fantastic player and has a lot of the right attributes for a midfielder: good close control, strong in possession, strong tackler and a fantastic foot! All very promising. Id love to see him play alongside a fully fit and at his best Andy King - could be lethal!
i think he is good, but no where near as good as you are making out.... good signing though and will only get better.
he could do with adding a yard of pace and an ability to beat a man one-on-one, but so far i have been very impressed.
He plays that role well and it's evident he possesses a good football brain. He got himself into good positions vs Forest but I still wanted more in terms of a final decisive pass. In future, he could play that No. 10 role but in the short term, I feel we'll see him operate more as a winger.
fookin hell slow down, england call ups etc blimey, yes he played well against hull and forest but lets not get carried away, he looks a good prospect but thats all at the minute. Love the new song though thats a classic.
