    Guy's pull up with hamstring injuries and Ronny say's they'll be fit in 3 day's time so this must be a double leg break..

    People are forgetting he's only played 25 games, I imagine he will be used as a sub and of course he needs to work his way ahead of the 1st picks but he should be getting a chance ahead of Armstrong & Forrest on the wing.
    We do have about 10 players that can play in the 3 behind the striker, he'll get a chance.

    Why did we sign this guy. I had assumed that we got him in January to get him bedded in for next years euro qualification. Turns out we are just lending City a hand to pay his wages and take care of any medical bills.:31:

    Cmon to * Ronnie. It's things like this that make me despair. Not ready for our league. A 12 million pound youngster tipped as the next best thing. City has already done some breaking in of him. And as fans we deserve a bit of excitement with all that's left of the season. This is doing my * nut now. Players taking 2-3 month to come back from non serious injuries and new signings, most of them taking half a season to bleed in or signed * injured. My * nerves can't hold out much longer. Anyone got a cig.

    I'm hoping that Deila is just trying to relieve some of the pressure that the lad may be feeling. He's come in with a big reputation and a hefty transfer fee paid by one of Europe's richest clubs.

    So encourage him onto a game. Don't have to heap pressure. But the negativity around our club Is astonishing. Collins earlier * SPL statement is being slapped into us.:50:

    Aye, I mean that I hope Deila is saying what he says in public, but behind closed doors is encouraging the kid to make a name for himself and push for a first-team position.

    Don't know if I'm the only one to read it this way, but seemed to me that Deila was just dialling back the expectations. I mean, listening here, it's like we'd just lost Larsson. The lad only turned out at underage so far. Deila also said there's no reason why he couldn't start. People need to chill out a bit...

    This guy will probably sub on in next week or so and be hammering for first choice start inside a month, but it'll be because he does/doesn't deserve it, not because folk just fancy a change

    He didn't cost 12M either, that's the possible total with add ons, sure I read somewhere it was in the region of 5M which is quite normal for English clubs buying other young English talents. The kid needs time, not all players react well under pressure since he is here to prove himself good enough to get into the Mac City team in a few seasons.
    Everyone is reading a bit too much into this.

    I'd say the anger is genuine.

    Something at our Club stinks to the high heavens because the Manager said a 19 year old with no first team experience needs time to adapt to a new Country, Club and level of football?

    Jesus Christ. :56:

    But it's a lower level of football than what he's been used to, he's played over 20 games for Fulham against better teams than what he'll be playing here.

    Should be talking this guy up, place needs a lift..

    If he is just another 19yr old then we could have played our own 19yr olds..
