Pastor Patrón Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 did you really expect him to start? Um, yes? Why not he's fully fit and even if he doesn't know the system that well yet is still a completely different class to Rodriguez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 Good depth in the squad now, 7 decent subs too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 We played very well at West Brom, I wouldn't say there is any particular need to throw Ossie straight in, I think Poch has made the right decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Red Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 Can't help but think either Sessegnon or Johnson will do something a bit special at some point during the game. Not necessarily consistently great players, but they have something. Hope chambers is up to it. Still quietly confident of a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamilton Saint Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 Um, yes? Why not he's fully fit and even if he doesn't know the system that well yet is still a completely different class to Rodriguez. I would expect him to come on in the second half for twenty minutes or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toon Saint Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 While I hope Osvaldo gets a good 30 mins, wouldn't have sent out a great message to the rest of the team if he had come in and started straight away. Squad is looking very strong when the likes of Maya can't even make the match day squad. COYR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batman Posted 24 August, 2013 Author Share Posted 24 August, 2013 What are they saying?.... awesome academy doing it the right way. bought 3 top top quality players that will immediately improve the first 11 through the spine created competition for places but at the same time, blooding top young talent. all the right way no scatter gun approach from the club should be aiming for top 10 finish a a real go at the cups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 What are they saying?.... Good blend of decent signings and youth players. Full of praise for Wanyama, Lovren and Shaw in particular. Some concerns about Ossie's attitude and how he will fit into the team with Lambert. Doing the right thing with 3 decent signings instead of buying about 12 like Sunderland.
