Nolito - 2016/17 performances

[schfc6]

Very impressive player.
Always moving, relentless and physically aggressive.
Touch and intelligence is impressive. High energy too. Not much not to like.

I think he'd do a good job in the De Bruyne role too in centre mid.

Superb interview in the Guardian with Sid Lowe. Didn't realise he had such a tough upbringing but comes across as a very likeable character. https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...kes-and-the-coke-then-you-realise-its-no-good

give us the right balance in my opinion when he plays

Some people moaned about signing a player of his age but it actually adds maturity to his play. (Unlike Shrek, who's just fcuked!)

And for the price we paid, we're not expecting a decade at the top; more a helpful bridge towards full Monty Pep football.

Really intelligent player, this fella is. Always looking for the ball, always moving into good positions too.
Going to be one of the best signings of Pep's early years. I really like him.

 

[Tricky Dickys Right Foot Shot]

A statement that probably cost us two points.

To be fair we dominated from start to finish.... only thing we can blame is our inability to finish the chances we had, and we had plenty of chances along with 2 penalties!

We missed him more than I thought we would. I would like to see him given a run of games through the middle.

Seems a real asset, but not sure why you would want to move him from the left. It is a position we struggle with and the amount of goals he has contributed to is great for a wide player.

He has such a great attitude. One of those guys who is not the most talented ball player, but more than makes up by his work ethic and live wire movement off the ball.

The Spanish, goal scoring James Milner.

Lovely addition to this side.
