Player Topic: Navas.....

Good news. Great squad player

 

[Scaring Europe to Death]

A strange player who undoubtedly contributed more than he was given credit for, and on more than one occasion (Sevilla away being the best example) was our best player.
Also, let's not forget that he scored in the Wembley shootout, when the more fashionable Liverpool players were all missing.

However, just like Sterling, it was often unclear whether he was under orders, to wait for support, rather than just do what the crowd wanted, and use his pace to beat the full back.

I like Navas. I think he suffered from growing in up in era when being short and pacy meant you were always stuck on the wing.

Can see Pep using him in a number of different positions like Right Back, Wing Back or Central Midfield.

Great news. Love the guy. We all know he's limited and frustrating but he always gives 100% and you need players like that in your squad.

I bet Pep makes more players get into that penalty box quicker as well.Too many time last season there was hardly any fucker in that area with Sergio spending far too much time outside of the box.Pep will demand more bodies up there and in all honesty one of our best players to get quickly into the area was young Kelechi.

Limited, but a solid player to have for squad depth.

Seems we got a lot of great news today. Great squad player, thought he sometimes got too much stick in that people often focus on his crossing (which does have some room of improvement). His ability to hold up and pass the ball is pretty good, as is his workrate. And sometimes I think if he were not a football player, he could be trained as a sprinter instead.

Its interesting that the article states their to 'get a year'. Looks like Pep knows their not the ideal solution but he has bigger problems to sort first.

When we played Sevilla he was brilliant,he is capable of more than he showed this last season
