Cuco Martina: N/A Anyone who gives him a rating is being very unfair as he's hardly played.
.
Could not agree more but then the same applies to Juanmi and Clasie who have had a similar amount of playing time. Thing is, Martina was brought in on a short term contract to provide cover that we would have needed had we still been in Europa League. Clasie and Juanmi were much more highly rated and I think both will emerge as firm fans favourites in time. Long term I predict Juanmi will be one of our best ever signings. Just a feeling.
Romeu is the one that has disappointed me (I never rated Caulker so could not really be disappointed with his poor performances) - had hopes he would be a like for like Morgan replacement. In truth, you simply cannot replace Morgan so I see a tactical switch in the way we line up to compensate - using Clasie or Romeu depending on the opposition.
