If he plays just a third of the games this season I would be delighted. He is a game changer and will play a big part this year hopefully.

To be fair. I came to the exact same conclusions based on the signings. I fully expect (although I genuinely hope I am wrong) Vicente to be allowed to leave and return to Spain very soon.
It is not a good situation for anyone. He is going to find it harder and harder to break the team if and when he returns to fitness.

Stop bloody moaning!
Oh, FFS. Here we go again!
We had all this last year, and if you all want to take any notice of Andy Naylor, then good luck to you.
I would have thought that after Naylor's "Transfergate" on Friday night you would have learnt your lesson.

It's simple he's injured and will Play again when he's fit probably against sheff wed if not the week after when he is fit
I find myself doing that with Bridcutt, and you get to do it at more matches. Our best player by a country mile

Yes, it's something I do like to do when watching better players, and when Vicente isn't out there, I too switch my attention to Bridcutt quite often.

I've noticed though he upsets the balance of the team. Stats don't lie. Sorry I can't provide them but they are on here somewhere.
They really do. All the time.

Well maybe In some cases but with Vicente they don't. Our record with him not In the squad Is better than with him In It.
I'm not sure if you're talking about Bridcutt or Vicente? I'm guessing the latter

But we were hoping to be able to announce that we have tied him to a longer contract before the start of the season but ended up activating a clause in the old one to 'protect our investment' and stop him going elsewhere. This hardly sounds like a club who want to get rid of him due to his injury record, especially as we are just a couple of games into the season.
It's just a case of someone adding 2 plus 2 and making 76.
Reading between the lines and very much making 2+2=5 i think Vicente does not like to travel and only wants to play at the Amex or at the good grounds .. Burnley, Hull dosent feature high on his list ... Only an opinion !
Likewise.
Poyet commented in the summer how Vicente wanted to be challenging for promotion and how we needed to strengthen our squad to make him want to stay - well he's got to be impressed with our new signings. He'll have players capable of working on his wavelength, and it'll be easier for him with more Spaniards to chat to. Should be a good season for him.
