Maybe he isn't good enough (yet?)? Looked quite slow to me when he got his chance.
Compared to Vieira he is roadrunner
Point taken.
Completely missing the point here, you cannot compare ibrahim to Paddy V and say Ibrahim is more athletic,, you have to take account of his experience, composure, charisma, positioning and what he gets from others around him, Ibrahim is not near ready and will only be fring again next year at most
Not missing the point at all and I accept that mancini didn't think he was ready. The point about pace was deliberately set up for me by Anti.But to quote all you have about Vieira just made me laugh so thank you. Charisma... very funny. He was crap on the field almost all the time and we all know it.
