Ramiro Funes Mori

[mlyons]

Make no mistake, if Jags is sidelined we are mightily thin in central defense... we're an injury away from not having enough central defenders to put out for a game and Stones is also pretty injury prone in all fairness, despite his young age.

We have Browning, Galloway, Pennington, and Holgate. How many central defenders were you planning on playing?

 

[Smudge1985]

Looked very good again yesterday. Obviously hoping Jagielka isnt too badly injured, but I have no worries with Mori getting a run.

Galloway hasn't played a minute there and he's needed at left back, Oviedo's fitness is questionable and Baines is still unfit. Pennington and Holgate. Mate, they've never even been in the first team squad. This is not the U21 team's thread. In such a dire case we'd probably have Barry fill in in defence. And Browning is not the ideal solution to me either, but I guess he's all right at defending.

You two faced hypocrites are gonna destroy him when he is at fault for two goals in the same game.

Pennington started against Barnsley.

 

[chicoazul]

Pennington started against Barnsley.

His first ever start in the League Cup against a lower league team.

If we're relying on him as a centre half in the Premier League at the moment then we're in a desperate situation.

Not knocking the lid as he may come good with experience.

 

[mlyons]

Well, yes, if we have four central defenders injured at the same time, we'll be in a desperate situation. I agree.

 

[ToffeeDoug]

He heads the ball for fun.

 

[4737carlin]

Best header of a football in the Premier League IMO

 

[marsh]

If we can get a corner past the first man for once Mori will score a header Tuesday

 

[ilikecheese]

Looks the real deal. Impressed would be an understatement.

Vickery can do one for the rest of time.

 

[KevMirallas]

Not worried about him at all. Looks decent enough from early impressions.

 

[Zatara]

We have 5 centre backs and 1 is injured?!

Make no mistake, if Jags is sidelined we are mightily thin in central defense... we're an injury away from not having enough central defenders to put out for a game and Stones is also pretty injury prone in all fairness, despite his young age.

 

[Zatara]

I was thinking
Stones
Jags- injured
Mori
Browning
Galloway

But yeah also pennington and holgate if needed...

[SpurtingLesbian]

Yes, I think he'll get a Work Permit to play for us.
