He needs time to adjust just as Silva did when he arrived the pace of the game is to much for him right now.
Stoke is gonna be a tough game and Hughes is desperate to stick it up us and I can well imagine the game being played with Stoke in our faces pretty much the whole game. They'll be no time for those fancy little turns and flicks for this one. I just hope Pellers has the good sense to sort this one out.
Clueless.

The usual clueless mob who fail to grasp the concept of rotation.

Seriously Billy always had you down as a happy clapper but now a deluded one as well. If you can't see what's going on the pitch and the reason why we are so disjointed at the minute. I know we paid £30 million but that does not make him an instant top player for us.
Take off your blue spectacles and if he does play on Saturday watch him, he is so much out of his depth, for us right. Don't get me wrong I think he will come good but honestly he is struggling right now.

Have to agree with billy here Mike, you really must be smoking something
Keep a tab on what he does off the ball, football is more than 40 yard screamers and 60 yard passes, his levels of fitness are increasing game by game, against hull he was doing a clichy in the 90min, said it before he'll be the most important player in MP system, a great deal of people are ridiculously thinking he is something he's not..... Put it this way he's 10x the player of Barry and we'll see it week by week!!

Play shitty through ball that's easily intercepted, attempt to foul to prevent counter attack, get burned for pace/shrugged off the ball, trip over own boots and fall on the attackers heels. Yellow card. 35 million pounds.

It could be that Yaya's stifling him. I'd like to see him play with Yaya further forward or even without Yaya.mmc said:All I know is, without someone as dynamic as Fernandinho, playing this formation with Yaya aswell in the centre wouldn't even be possible. He hasn't shown his 30 million worth yet, which I understand but I think he is very promising.
Unlucky to get carded this game.celticfc482 said:Can tell he was told to really sit back today perhaps what he will also do on sunday. Never got involved in the attacking play much but he had a good game. He really does need to stay back though because once yaya goes forward he takes a while to get back so the security is needed especially against the bigger teams. Be nice if he didnt get booked every game either.
LoveCity said:blightee is desperate for him to fail, been on his back since he signed and wants to feel vindicated.
Statistically speaking he was the best defensive player on the pitch by a margin tonight. 4 successful tackles (joint highest) and 6 interceptions (a very high total).
Played well, I noticed he sat back more while Yaya sauntered forward this time, are they swapping roles? Fernandinho is a better tackler so it might be wise, but one of his strengths is dribbling.
