2017/18 Ramiro Funes Mori

[davek]

..he genuinely attacks the ball in the air which also makes him a threat in the opposition box.

Defo. I'd liked to have seen him try and get on the end of Sigurdsson crosses.

 

[argietoffee]

He does attack the ball.

But he loses plenty of aerial duels.

Ask Michael Antonio

..he’s not got the upper body bulk so he tends to be most effective running and attacking.

Correct.

 

[Papa Shango]

..we can but we’ve already got Centre backs aplenty, especially if you add in the likes of Pennington and Browning. The squad is really unbalanced in certain areas and needs weeding out.

Pennington and Browning are on loan an unproven. Jagielka cant play every game, Williams and Keane are rubbish and Holgate is still a kid. Oh and Mori has been out for a year with a bad injury.

We dont really have great CB options.

Boy, you are negative! How long was Coleman out and how did he play against Leicester? How can Holgate improve if he is not played? How well did Keane play against Leicester? Don't you think Mori should be given a chance like Coleman was?

I...didn't say Mori shouldn't play. I said he has come back from a long term injury. It will take time for him to get up to full speed. Holgate has been playing. He shouldn't be playing every game though realistically as he is still young. Need to take him out every once in a while.

Keane was average against Leicester which sadly feels like he did well. I have said before I am not giving up on Keane but as a signing so far he has been awful.

It's not negativity, it's just being honest.

Notice though holding back on Mori, by ignoring the point I made on Coleman! So how far is Coleman off full speed??

Glad he is back, all hands to the pump and all that

Ramiro Funes Mori

All our hopes are now pinned on you.

No pressure lad.

Coleman played one game and then ended up missing the next one.

Also Coleman is a special player.

 

[Coggy]

He is really good attacking aerial balls in the opposition penalty area.
Shame he isn't defending them in our area.
That said, anything is better than Williams.
Welcome back !

to be fair probably could have played, just fat sam being cautious

 

[Albro]

He'll play the last few games of the season for us to put him in the window; go to the world cup as an automatic starter for Argentina and have a great tournament; be sold to a top European club.

He is a much much better CB than fickle fans of this club give him credit for. He is way better than any of our dogs at CB. At a club that plays out and plays high up the pitch he'd excel.

This. And then some.

Apparently the 3-4 clangers he has made equal him to being a duck or a giraffe. Funes Mori was a very good Martinez signing, and unfortunately got injured. Solid player.
