2025/26 Merlin Röhl

[Joey66]

John Oster, Gareth Farrelly, Tom Davies are a few sub-pl standard names I'd add. Nyarko too.

Tom Davis was a home grown player

 

[Vaughan]

he will look better when he comes on playing next to the likes of Kdh and ili

 

[Rudolf Hucker]

I’ll reserve judgment until I’ve seen him play under a coach who actually coaches football.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Far too early to be judging him. Give him time to settle in

Yeah, this.

Seems its a race to form a conclusion opinion nowadays.

Nyarko had ability, obviously lacked the mindset.

 

[micknick]

Yeah, this.

People love to spout absolutes. Its very interesting talking to match going blues compared to online blues about players and the manager.

Claus Thomsen?

 

[Saint Domingo]

I’m a big believer that you only see the best of players when they’re fully match fit, have had consistent game time in their correct position, have stable partnerships around them. You can see the confidence uplift in players who will then start trying stuff. Look at the benefit to Garner this season of just staying fit and having a run of games.

Rohl hasn’t had any of these yet. Very few players can hit the ground running in the PL immediately. I remember City fans doubting Rodri when he first arrived when they had Fernandinho and every time they played together they wouldn’t win and questioning what he did.

 

[Furey1878]

I haven't seen enough to judge, to be honest, I don't really know what I should be expecting of him, like what kind of midfielder is he?

He keeps getting played as a sort of 10 but that doesn't really look like his game to me.

I think he’s suppose to be a transition midfielder with the ball at his feet, very athletic, drives with the ball at a decent pace. Can’t imagine the injuries help with that.

No idea if he’s good defensively or can pass the ball

 

[AndyP94]

As a few have said, he'll hopefully look better when our best players are around him and when he plays in a more consistent position.

John Oster could beat two and sometimes even three players in a dribble before giving the ball away,but even that was better than Dibling...oops off topic.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Playing like he isn’t fully fit.

 

[The T-Dex]

If there's one positive from a negative from him, he tried the hard passes and to make things happen. He does seem about 5 yards off pace in most things though.

 

[PhilRegan]

Another experiment. The only sure quality summer signing was Grealish and most of the forum have got pitch forks out for him.

Similar to lukaku not running properly same people.
