It makes a difference when someone composed on the ball plays it simple, quickly and effectively. It will take a bit of time to pick up the pace of the league aswell. He should continue to improve.

It was a bit of the old hippy coming out yesterday. Back to reality today Back to Iborra, hope this is the start of a bright 3 or 4 years for the guy. BUT.......... What do you do when Silva's cleared to play. We can't drop Ndidi ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their performances against us and Southampton were vintage Pulis. I thought he'd abandoned the plan of 11 behind the ball and clinging on for a draw but I guess he's just reverted to type.

I guess they've settled for it you have to feel kind of sorry for the WBA fans though watching them performances and such, i cant imagine some of our fans liking it if we did that tbh On Irorra, hopefully he can continue the good form into the Everton game, but it will be tough tho given the way Everton pack the midfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RumbleFox Posted 22 October 2017 Share Posted 22 October 2017 Are you all mental? "Much better than he has been" "He looks a different player", etc. This was his second full league game after an injury, a new country and a new system. Anyone saying things like that just judged him too early. He looked great yesterday, I thought he showed promise previously but if we all were a bit more reasonable, stopped jumping to conclusions too quickly we would all be a lot happier. He clearly cannot be fully assessed until at least ten or so matches but he certainly looks to have a bit of class. Keep it up big man. X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true but nevertheless I thought he was very good yesterday. Shinji had one of his better games, buzzing around; some periods involved some one touch pass and move; we’ve not seen us play that type of football for 12 months or more I don’t think. Having that mobility and intensity of play as opposed to Nacho standing still made a big difference also. At times it was a total turnaround in that we had 5 men busting a gut to get forward. One swalllow does not a summer make, but a much more proactive and positive performance gives a little hope, and makes one wonder more what Shakespeare was playing at notwithstanding the fact Swansea are very poor. Fearful, safety first football doesn’t suit this side, and he’s been here long enough to know that. He did a lot of talking about getting on the front foot but for maybe 14 games in a row, couldn’t make it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe 4000 empty seats at home and he reminded me that last time i went to a game with him, FA cup at leicester, they filled the family stand and the away end, compare that to last week. He'd prefer to be a yo yo club again cos at least it was exciting every couple of years, playing derby matches etc, what do they have now, playing for mid table with no rivalries whatsoever.

But still options for Slim (for Vardy) and Nacho (for Gray). 4-3-3 with Silva in january is the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StriderHiryu Posted 24 October 2017 Share Posted 24 October 2017 Can't wait to see him play versus Everton. He's got calmness, composure, good reading of the game, good passing, great physical strength and can tackle. Just lacking some pace, but in the last two games he has that knack of always looking like he has tons of time and space on the ball that the very best players have. Still early into his career, but it's no coincidence that two of our best performances of the season have been where he's played brilliantly. Can't wait for Silva / Iborra in January. Throw in Ndidi too for some more energy with Mahrez and Gray on the wings. It could be awesome!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
