What do you mean by his cynicism?True but I like his competitive edge and even his cynicism. Much needed imv.
He doesn’t have to get up in the ref’s face because he doesnt like a call or take a dive I mean.

Just general gamesmanship and pushing the boundaries. We should fight for every mm of advantage in a game and we’re doing it. I like it.What do you mean by his cynicism?

He could take a leaf out of how Romero is doing it. I agree though.Just general gamesmanship and pushing the boundaries. We should fight for every mm of advantage in a game and we’re doing it. I like it.
Where do you get your analysis of Veliz from?
His movement in the 21s game was excellent when he came on and was a wee bit rusty with his finishing but that’s to be expected as it was his first game time in 6 weeks. His touch looks great and can physically deal with what’s coming. His work rate on Saturday was something I liked for the short time he was on. He looks like he’ll be a handful.Watching Veliz in u21's - the 30 mins he played is more than he has played in the 2 sub appearances for first team combined. I've also seen a couple of short videos of Veliz in Argentina which don't contradict what I saw, except he was able to score - but difficult to know if that is quality of opposition or not. If the scouting has been good, then its just a question that he's not match fit but hopefully 2 weeks training will help him get more up to speed.

Ange also said last week that “Veliz was signed as a first team squad player”.'wee bit rusty' a bit of an understatement - hence drawing attention to it. His younger team mates had already scored 5 and he had probably 3 or 4 chances in u21 game. But as I said hopefully he works on that in the next 2 weeks.
Certainly looks as if physicality should not be a problem, he seems quite mobile and able to get into right places at right time, so I'm hoping things come together for him. Ange did say not to expect too much before 2nd half of season shortly after he joined.
He said that but he’s been involved last two games which suggests he’s impressed in training. I think if sonny has to sit out to manage his injury then it might well be Veliz that comes in instead of Richy.'wee bit rusty' a bit of an understatement - hence drawing attention to it.

Not the most accurate thread title there Gatsby my man. Unless we are traveling to the match in a Delorean.
So is it Fulham playing at Home or are we playing Fulham at home?
Would you like somebody to google that for you?I can't believe we're playing Monday and Friday, seems daft to me. I'm too used to one game a week.
Will both be on Sky?
It's closer to turd kit than third kitAs long as we don't wear the horrible third kit this time.!
