I give thiago a break. He's bew to the team and league and joined when the whole team has been decimated with injuries.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
nah. Can't at 180k per week.
yes he was injured but his efforts for the past games have been so disappointing. It is not in ability to run about it is what he is doing on the ball.
all he is doing is shuffling it on. He really has made zero impact creatively.
we won 4 of the last 5 and he played his part.
the one loss v fulham (fairly disastrous) he didn't play but keita did.
If we want to match up to leeds we have to play the likes of milner to play hard for 60mins then let thiago come on.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I disagree mate. I think he has been improving as time has went on. There are times when he plays the ball forward quickly and others arent on the same wavelength. The madrid game he played a beautiful ball forward to robbo who didnt quite have the ability to take it down on his chest which thiago quite rightly had a moan about.
I will admit he has not hit the heights id have hoped for but I will keep repeating the same thing. He is yet to play with the midfield he was by all accounts signed to be a part of, him, fab and hendo. I will reserve full judgement until we see that for a good run of games.

I cannot agree as I fell firmly that hes abdicated his responsibility to create. He has done ok getting fitter and trying to get about. At the start he was diving into tackles from miles off but he has started being able to get there on his feet.
I have seen so little over so many games of the talent on the ball. I dont care who hes supposed to play with once he is on the ball he is a 180k man in his prime with all the skills who is just passing the ball on aimlessly.
We need to see this ability to drive us on. It would be nice if trent could have some confidence the guy would cover him going further forward as well.
