Apparently you forget Lamela's first two seasons
Nkoudou didn't cost a ridiculous amount of money and hailed as Bale's successor.

Apparently you forget Lamela's first two seasons

Couldn't agree more. Dele has been in pretty poor form all season. I see no reason why NKoudou shouldn't at least get a chance? He has looked decent in most of his cameos.Is this going to be another N'Jie or Stambouli - bizarre, mediocre signing and waste of wages and fees?
If not - give the guy some proper playing time, ffs
Dele hasnt been in top form but all season ? December has been quite impressive from Dele no ? He will always dissappear in games but his continuous presence is not his main strength, his positioning and scoring ability is.Couldn't agree more. Dele has been in pretty poor form all season.

Loved his enthusiasm, must've been disappointed at not starting, but he came on and just went for it. Pure football joy, liked it. Seems to have the willingness to take his rare chances, even after not playing for such a long time. Good mindset, good feet, good pace and he seemed to have gained a bit more composure. Looked less like a headless chicken
Couldnt agree more, that's why i am extra impressed by his obvious love of the game, the kind of guy who would play footbal even if he wasnt payed to do so.He plays with a smile on his face... a rarity these days with all the Media pressure heaped on every single mistake or misplaced pass (see Exhibit A; V.Janssen)
The best example todays footballers can set to kids is to show how much they enjoy their lofty, privileged position... not appear terrified by it... or have an over-inflated opinion of themselves, purely from kicking a football about. (See Exhibits B & C: Z.Ibrahimovic & C.Ronaldo!!)
Lets not forget, they have got to where they are by having a mixture of natural ability, and a fair slice of luck along the way... playing a game that they should be LOVING every second of.
GKN comes across exactly as the kid who landed his dream job!
(not unlike Gazza's face when he used to play!)
