Vik, form, competition and confidence.....

Hindsight and all that but think we missed a trick with Etikite. Saw bits of him last season, usual highlights stuff, when he was at Frankfurt and thought he looked a real prospect. Great feet.
Oh well

Had plenty of his sort. I wanted someone who only wants to shoot.

Some people take longer to adapt than others. Zubi's fitted in straight away - and Ganpati willing he'll score more goals for us this season than the ten he got in 5 full season {plus a couple with a few appearances when he was starting} at Sociedad. That would be a real bonus given we just got him as world class DM.

But others take half a season or whatever. DB10 went something like 9 or 10 games before he scored. Titi got 2 in his first half season, that's why we got Sukur for a year so he could settle slowly without the pressure.}

Vik's second half season has coincided with Jeez and Kai coming back and he's one Player of the month for us with 6 in his last 8 and I think 2 assists. That's with Jeez and Kai also scoring as CF when he's been on the bench or substituted. The pressure on him reduced once the other two came back and started scoring and as a result his confidence is sky high and Ganpati willing will keep getting even stronger.

I dont think we have seen the best of Zubimendi yet. We've seen how good he is, but his biggest selling points are ticking over possession and never giving the ball away. He isnt there yet. We'll see the best of him from next season.

Look at the difference in Calafiori. It isnt that he has suddenly become a much better player. He has just adjusted to the pace and aggression of the league. Zubimendi will do the same.

The really surprising one is Mosquera. So young, yet looked like he belonged from the first minute. He'll improve on the ball but I have been hugely impressed with his first season. So far.

He's playing like an out of form Nketiah today :facepalm:

And Shirley a dogso against Guehi there?

And Shirley a dogso against Guehi there?

Nah. Don't think Salah was reaching the ball. Certainly enough room for doubt
