blues2win wrote:To be honest Ted the question is whether we hang on to Zuculini or loan him out. Probably the latter because he'll get serious game time but it 's a close run thing. If we do loan him should we be trying for a Premiership or maybe championship team though so he gets used to English football. All the talk so far is that he might go to a Spanish Club. I hope it's only for a season though.

I looked briefly on the OS & it said kick off at 8. Then I looked at the streaming site & it said Thursday. So I just assumed I'd got the date wrong & they were playing at 8, Thursday.
Pissflaps.

Yeah, I can safely say never have heard the word "acclimatising." Leave it to the English to add useless syllables and letters.
English comes from England. Anything else is a deviation from the standard.

While that may be true it is still less efficient!
Two sips, nope never heard any variation of acclimatize (nor aclimatise), we use acclimate.

Nwakali is also a lively fucker who can play out wide & has a bit of pace. Perhaps not quite as good & as smart as Iheanacho, but I may be doing him a disservice. I haven't seen the game yet so don't know what Iheanacho did, but I watched him & Nigeria U17s pretty much every game, & he's more than just a striker. He's got a seriously dangerous Silveresque ten yard pass on him; absolutlely superb touch when he gets it right.
I said during the World Cup, that Nigeria's U17s were better than the first team & wasn't joking. Their technique & pace is incredible & their coach had them playing fantastic counter attacking football. There are more talents to come from that team & we tried to sign a 3rd lad, who's name escapes me, but I believe Spurs got him. That may be a terrible loss, because he looked fucking shit hot as well. Midfield player; brilliant.
By the way: are all you lot who took the piss out of the Zucculini signing starting to feel a bit fucking stupid now ?

Has an incredibly valuable knack of finding himself in goalscoring positions too. He times his late runs perfectly. Honestly, he seems to have more oomph to his game than Rodwell has ever shown. Even Garcia to an extent... he could easily and quickly develop into a great little squad player.
