VectisSaint Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 He needs to hit the ground running in pre-season. As I said on another thread yesterday there is precious little evidence that he is even involved. Only 2 pictures include him and neither show him partaking in any activity. I wonder whether he is carrying an injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giordano Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 I think it will be difficult for him. MP seems to have faith in his formation / playing style. That requires a certain type of forward player. We are looking at that certain type of forward player in Damiao and Osvaldo and possibly others. Mayuka does not appear to have those characteristics. He seems to be a younger Billy Sharp basically. If MP is as tough on his playing beliefs as i think he might be then Mayuka will be 4th choice...if that. Consider Barcelona. They might be 1-nil down in injury time but it is very very rare indeed that they will hoof it into the box. In the old fashioned footy tactical way of thinking Mayuka is an extra "option" player - his pace and goal instinct with 5 minutes to go when defenders tire might be considered useful. In the modern thinking footy though MP will just keep going in our southampton way believing ultimately it will work- not that we abandon the style of play and put Mayuka on and play it long into the gaps for him to get first too... Im ambivalent about it...i do want him to have a chance but cant see happening unless we get injuries or loss of form and results - which i don't want us to get..

Nolan Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 I'm hoping the arrival of Wanyama will help bring Mayuka up to snuff. Only Tanzania separates Zambia and Kenya, so (even though Africa is huge) they're from a similar part of Africa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolan Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 (edited) Yep because MP's arrival sure helped bring the best out of Ramirez... hence the "I'm hoping" I'm also Hoping that with Ramirez no longer having the label of "record signing", it might take some pressure off him.

Mr Saints Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 MLG, what are his swimming attributes on FM13? Cheers mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why do the pictures show all the players training hard, but not one shows Manny doing anything ()apart from new one today where he is swimming. The fact that he's out there says nothing at all, I never said he wasn't involved I'm questioning whether he is injured? Why can't people do simple things and look at the evidence and wonder why he is not involved in training rather than make a smart alec remark that just shows they have no idea? Thought you were a bit better than that, sort of comment I would have expected from the three trolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still the good news is looks like he was involved in the shooting practice, so maybe he is over whatever was keeping him out of the spotlight before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because one of them didn't capture mayuka doing 'anything' doesn't really constitute evidence of anything, surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, you could do the Baltic route and go through Lithuania and Latvia (and even Estonia, if you wanted) after Poland.
