[Albion] Is Ezequiel Schelotto really 'The Greyhound'

[GJN1]

I've seen no evidence as yet that he's quick enough to be the new Ballyregan Bob. Maybe it's time for a new nickname?

Thought he did OK when he came on the other night but looked a little bit clueless when he made progress into the final third.

Still, lovely hair.

Maybe its the skinny body and long nose rather than the speed of his legs.

I think we’ll be seeing more of him over the next couple of weeks if his hair’s flapping behind like superman’s cape we can say he’s nippy I’ll reserve judgment until he’s up to speed

 

[GJN1]

I did see him lapping from a bowl of water when he was warming up...

 

[Sheebo]

His shot at the end was tragic. Had time to bring that down and just smash it at a packed goal. That frustrated me!

 

[Mellotron]

Oddest technique I've seen in a player for a while, when he made the cut in and attempted cross/pass with the outside of the boot.

ha ha yes, the one where it just arrowed out straight as a die off a toe punt when you could see he was shaping for the little cultured outside of the boot chipped out-swinging pass.

I like him though so far! (in the few minutes we've seen).

Just for you (so fast it was out of focus)

That has to be slowing him down a bit. There's going to be a lot of air resistance going on trying to pull those luxurious locks along behind him.

Black boots. Love him.

Separated at birth.

If he gets his way our new kit will look something like this next season , obviously the one in the brown is fashion victim Solly , on the bench again .

Unlike NSC to moan about a new player before he has had the chance to play more than a few minutes

He's quick, got long flowing locks, he doesn't need to have any footballing ability to be a fans favourite!

 

[seagully]

To be fair to him, the bit of skill prior to his terrible cross was sublime. I'd like to see him replace Bruno rather than Knockaert though, at least from the bench, as Bruno looked knackered towards the end of the Stoke game

 

[Is it PotG?]

Compared to Izquierdo's shot that went out for the throw I thought that his effort was pretty good.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

That' s the next name sorted for the NSC greyhound syndicate then: Albion Greyhound.

Still think Albion Kebabs sounds better though

 

[GooGull]

I thought he looked useful at Bournemouth in the cup, strong, quick and good in the air. Positive and looking forward to seeing more of him

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

It's not just Schelotto's greyhound tendency - I'm actually wondering whether Izquierdo is quite as fast as he's made out to be. There have been a few occasions when there's been plenty of grass ahead of him and I've been hoping to see the afterburners switched on but instead he only wants to cut inside and rival clubs' analysts will know all about that. Whereas knowing about his alleged pace and being able to do anything about it are two different things ...

 

[Gabbafella]

I say drop Bruno and AK for united and play Schelotto and March. With Bong and José on the other side and groß through the middle, that pace and creativity has to conjure up more than enough chances to nick it.
