He reminds me of Chris Waddle

Darren Anderton for me

Etete reminds me of Gestede

Darren Anderton for me

yes , someone posted a link to some opposition fans site comparing him to anderton and I can definitely see the resemblance since

I fully expect Rubin Colwill to be two inches taller tomorrow night than he was on Monday.

That fella is growing faster than a giant pansy plant does during springtime.

If you think Colwill is quite average, you need to give your head a wobble.
He is without doubt the most exciting talent that we have, a good manager with half a brain cell would play him at number 10 and build a team around him

Unfortunately the club gave the gig to a complete moron, who wouldn't know his arsehole from his elbow, and will probably never get another chance to manage at any decent level, and then Hudson has got the role.
Unless Hudson wakes up and smells the coffee he's likely to be going the same way by the end of January

I'm sure I've read that the reason younger players aren't trusted through the middle is down to tactics and work load experience etc. It's not as dangerous to lose the ball out wide, so it's easier to start the lesser experienced players out wide as they gain experience. Enables them to get game time where their mistakes aren't as costly and gain confidence etc.

I might be wrong.

I'd say that you're right. Frank Rijkaard started Messi out wide.

closer to home Mick McCarthy started Sang, Bowen, D'Almeida and McGuiness as right wing backs

Were running out of time, we haven't got the luxury of being able to swap players around in different positions
We create zero from midfield, and we have a naturally creative player who we need to develop in the number 10 role..
We have gone down the cheap route of coaching staff and managers, and they have both shown to be limited in their team set up, tactics and ability to change a game.
Hudson either needs a very experienced number alongside him, or we need an experienced manager who can help develop the talented players we have.

Why can't you can call someone a pansy?

It makes sense.

Bette rmanagers than Hudson would probably play him out wide as well, he will end up central sooner or later though.

We bang on about giving managers a chance then have **** all patience or thought for the reasoning behind some of their decisions..just want everything YESTERDAY

Re: Rubin Colwill: A science-based view from an experienced coach

I just don't buy it. Did John Charles or Erling Haarland have these?? (amongst others)

Just yesterday Pep says of Haarland ""To move his huge body is not easy for him but the more minutes he can play, the better he will be,"

Who is right?

Re: Rubin Colwill: A science-based view from an experienced coach

He beat players quite easily on Monday and has done so before at both Championship and international level, I'm not sure if a player that can do that counts as slow and lumbering. He certainly isn't rapid like Isaak Davies, but I'd say your description is a little harsh

A tad harsh maybe, but he's def. got what I'd describe as 'slow feet'. Pace, quickness on the ball, all critical in the modern game.
