He hasnt done the club any favours too so far.

Not doing the Xavi name much justice currently.
He hasn’t settled into this team or league at all yet.

He’s shown flashes but is inconsistent.
Need to give players time or we’d run almost all of them out of town.

Completely agree. He's very good but not all the time, as is the case with players that are not yet the final product. We need to give them time to grow, and the emotional support to keep going. It doesn't help Xavi at all that he's being played out of position, or that he's been asked to come on and try to change the game late on or in already bad situations.
Actually thought he grew into it yesterday.
Played a rough pass but then started combining with Udogie and Odobert, created some decent situations.
It definitely wasn’t a continuation of the Wolves performance.

There was a lot of hype when he signed, I fail to see why.
He's got a lovely smile.
You've hit the nail on the head, as usual.
Is this one of your sarcastic posts again?
Wirtz had better numbers in the same league and he looks just as bad. The physicallity of the prem seems to have found both out so far.
Every chance they adapt and come good but very underwhelming so far. Disappointing when you see how good Eze was at the weekend. He's on another planet to Simons atm
I think he’s our best shot at a proper #10
He's already shown flashes of what he could be...he just needs to get through his obvious nerves and get settled in and feel comfortable..I have real hopes for him...
Hmm, not sure. I think Maddison might still be the best 10 we have.
Grew into it? He was awful. yeh I guess he didn't play a misplaced pass after the first couple but that's because he wasn't getting involved at all.
I still rate him based on what I've seen before and am of the belief that he will eventually come good but his passing has been alarming. Someone said it before, it's like he's closing his eyes when he passes.
I thought the combo play with Udogie and Odobert was decent. Created good situations
