2017/18 Nikola Vlasic

Time for him to step in to Siggurdsson's place. Played best centrally and we have NOBODY else really.

I don’t think he’s very good.

*shrugs.

He should certainly be in the squad now.

Should be in the squad. Hasn't had enough minutes to judge properly.

Not enough for us to judge probably but I have a feeling he’s not as good as we expected/may think.

He’s young though so who knows.

Probably like the rest of the squad then.

Potentially worse. For now.

think he's look very decent when he's played, one think he does though is give the ball away in silly areas, but stuff like that can be coached out of you

Would like to see him get a few games ahead of Davies if Davy isn't going to get a look in.

Along with all the initial skills he brought with him. Some coaches don't like skills but teach how to give and go or be economic and pass safely sideways. Flair players are frowned upon nowadays it's just not allowed.

Can see Allardyce Just playing Gueye Rooney Davies in a midfield three and playing Bolasie on the left wing to replace Siggurdson.

Isn't it his sister that's fit, let him play I say

Barkley made a living doing this.

He was one of the only players to come out with any credit during Koeman's stint this season. At 19 years of age, coming in to a new league.

Since then he's been given the odd substitute appearance, and bizarre starting places after not playing at all for about 4 games. How is any player supposed to perform well in those circumstances, let alone one who is young and inexperienced in this league?

If he was one of the young lads who came through our academy there is no way people would be effectively writing him off so early like you did in the post before this one where you said you don't think he's very good.

Would like to hear why you think that? Genuinely though, I am not saying it's wrong as it is your opinion.
