[Albion] Carlos Baleba

[worthingweird]

Time for a run of starts, build confidance and trust...

 

[GingerBeerMan]

He's not ready for the Premier League.

(according to RDZ)

He was great in the game where he played in the central sweeper role, but he was poor in the last game(hence getting yanked at HT).
I was hoping he’d be more of a regular by now, but if RDZ thinks he’s not ready, then better he has the confidence of his manager

Probably got 1 PL game (tomorrow) before he goes to AFCON for a month ?

 

[GingerBeerMan]

The reality is he's currently playing at a higher level than Caicedo was at the same age. He probably could do with a loan to aid his development.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Time for Dahoud to have a run.

 

[Questions]

Time for Dahoud to have a run.

If he can’t come forward now……

 

[Bodian]

That's a relief - I thought this was another injury thread.

 

[London Irish]

Time for Dahoud to have a run.

If RDZ doesn’t play soon in the midst of this injury crisis he needs to be loaned out or moved on

He hasn’t got a single international cap, why are we so sure he’s off to AFCON?

 

[Hugo Rune]

Like a number of players we’re having to rely on at present, he is in the ‘early Mac Allister period’:

I suspect he’ll reach a very high level and retire with top level winners medals. But for now, he is a work-in-progress. He is still learning. We might have to wait a few years for his potential to shine through.

 

[B-right-on]

Trust in RDZ.

Although our injury situation might force his hand.

Ah, I think that’s a double bluff, yes injuries have thrust him into to the first team probably quicker than RDZ would have liked, but I think his comment to the press was a psychological dig at Baleba, much like the recent Gilmour interview when Billy said the manager was on his back and it drove him forward.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Moder will take the available place soon.
Would rather see more minutes for Jakub first.

It’s not though. Just have to watch him to know that’s true. He makes a fair few positional and decision making errors. Expected but he is not yet quite ready for PL. He is going to be brilliant though - Just very raw.

Not sure and not sure anyone has said they are, but read a few articles suggesting Song might pick him

He’s not in the squad.

I rate RDZ….but I think his playing days are definitely over and I wouldn’t really want to loan out our manager

 

[dazzer6666]

He’s not in the squad.

Yep, announced this morning. Good news.

its the ‘run’ part, that seems to be the problem.
