I do think it's very important to emphasise with Gonzalo Jara Reyes that he couldn't be selected for one of our games because he was UNDER ARREST at the time.
That is flair.
Those saying they've never seen anything to suggest he could be top level, I would suggest watching his goal against Ajax (away) again. The way he takes the ball completely in his stride without dropping any pace, and the calmness and ease of the finish - it was all top class.
His first touch...
Most of the options are tempting - Liverpool away would be an excellent way to kickstart the run in. Also very nearly voted Villa as we NEVER beat them and feel it's long overdue. Chelsea another where it could make a big difference in the race for Top 8.
I've gone Man Utd though. I missed both...
I don't think he's that flair though, is he? What does he do that's flair?
He's not very flamboyant. He hasn't wasted great ability. He doesn't get involved in off-field shenanigans.
I love the bloke but I'm surprised he's even in the tourney tbh. Very good solid club servant at RB.
I think he’s slightly underrated by many. I don’t really see him as a fully out and out striker.
I appreciate the positions he takes up and he could score more, but I think he’s the sort of player where the teams scores more goals when he’s on the pitch.
I could be wrong but I’d be interested...
