Yeah, let him come back to the familiarity of London and feel right at home to start crunching some skulls again.
I think the playing of through balls is less of an issue when you potentially have Romero who can thread a pass from deep.
I think it’s more important to have a monster like Palhinha to break up the play and then offload to Romero or our 8/10 to split their midfield.
Frank loves his tackleThe reason Frank wants Palhinha.
Looking at how well we defended yesterday and adding Palhinha to the mix we should be pretty solid at the back. I hope Frank's remit is to, first of all, make us hard to beat. We can then build from there.
At this point, I genuinely don't know if it's going to be Max Aarons or the next Roberto Carlos. And I think I like it.
EDIT: because I previously would have just assumed it's Aarons.

HOw many times have you seen Zubamendi play? Did you follow every game os Real Socidad last season. Does the spanish league replicate the intensity of the Prem. Obviousily with the scum and Liverpool's interest he is rated highly but he did not stand out massively against a midfield that consisted of Cassemiro and Fernandes playing deep.
That's fine. As I mentioned in a previous post, Frank should firstly make us hard to beat and then worry about the rest. We'll get there.
Give the player half a dozen games and then hear "we should have signed him, no way can we hold on to him"
He was outstanding at Fulham.
You think the Scousers would accept before he's kicked a ball?
Don’t be such a Grouch(o)
Because of injury, and a January move to us neither have started many games for Spurs, Tel playing in three different positions because of the number of our injuries.
Odobert played a very good game yesterday.
Both would improve Fulham, in fact they would improve many PL teams.
When they get their first choice striker Isak they will probably need to love one out?
Not sure why newcastle cant sign players. Not sure if its the manager or location or both. They have money burning in their pockets.
Said on sky they have 125m to spend. Plus their best player wants to leave. Not sure if Howe is a big enough pull for top players or players dont fancy it up there.
