Denis Suarez: Returning to Barcelona after injury

[L3T5 PL4Y]

I'm not gonna judge without him getting a fair shot but I'm really glad purchasing him is optional.

You

Saka is brilliant, as is Amaechi. The exact kind of modern wingers we need. We're top heavy in talent, and given our dearth of this profile, they should be closer than they are IMO.

This is a separate convo to Suarez though.

You are right M.E But I'm worried about how impatient some of our fanbase are. The abuse Iwobi and AMN received recently has been uncalled for. The moment Saka and Amaechi, as good as they are, have a bad game, some of our fans will go OTT and write them off completely. I do wonder what seems to be holding them back from having more first team appearances seeing as we have a lack of overall out and out wingers throughout our first team squad.

I don't get this signing tbh

If he isn't fit then how will he help for the remainder of the season.

If we are gonna buy in Summer then performances like this wont help coz he is unfit so how will we justify the purchase

Whats the point of this loan????

We lack overall wingers throughout our squad. If either Iwobi or Mkhitaryan get injured then what natural cover do we have on the flanks? He will provide us with adequate cover until the summer where we can upgrade and spend more on getting the wingers we need but on a temporary basis with no obligation to buy, he'll do for now.

While he wasn't in anyway effective, I didn't think he was as bad as some people are making out, at least he could run with the ball at his feet which is more than you can say for the likes of Guendouzi whose on ball ability as of late seems to just consist of lobbing the ball forward and struggling to run and retrieve it before the opposition.

More technical players like Suarez in the team is a good start. Though hopefully he'll be a midfielder if he stays on here because he doesn't seem to have the athletic profile to be a success on the wings.

I cannot understand why we bought this guy. Carasco with the option to buy would be much more useful

 

[kraphtous]

Will prove his worth later in the season! Only Özil is technically better in our squad.

This.

He looks like a Signing from Wengers young brigade a decade ago.

 

[blaze_of_glory]

Hope he's at least given the chance to show what he can do.

These 5-10 min cameos don't tell you anything.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

He came on, won the ball back almost straight away, showed some nice dribbling at one stage at a time when we were literally just seeing the game out.

 

[blaze_of_glory]

Want to see him start on the wing ahead of Iwobi or Mhiki.

See how he combines with Mesut.

 

[L3T5 PL4Y]

He is awful. Cancel the loan.

He is awful. Cancel the loan.

Is that the fair shot you were talking about in your post top of the page?

 

[Garrincha]

The guy looks like Dennis Suarez out there...

 

[berric]

He combined well with Özil and had a couple of decent sprints and dribbles. Maybe those two will surprise in the latter stages.

Still seems too timid so far, afraid not to make mistakes...

 

[say yes]

Fine with him being phased in slowly. No special treatment in this team.

If he wants to make it here and resuscitate his career then he’s going to need to show Emery he’s worthy of starting ahead of Özil, Iwobi and Mkhi in training. Competition for places should make everybody raise their game.

 

[tap-in]

I would like to see him given longer vs Saints and start him vs Bournemouth. He can certainly run with the ball, to have him and Özil must improve our creativity and help Auba get back to scoring.

 

[Furious]

Yet to watch a single minute of this guy.

The universe doesn't want me to watch an old pal of Emery, it seems.

 

[squallman]

I hope we're not planning to give this guy a 5 year contract in the summer.

What's the point in phasing in slowly a 6 month loan?

We’re signing him in the summer. Sadly.
