I see moura as a very similar situation to Son's in his first season with us. Takes some players time to reach Poch's levels to actually play.
I don't think he is Poch-fit, nor do I think he is ready to defend the way Poch wants from the AMs.

I like the signing though, and think he will be an important player for us next season.

Last game at home to Leicester... I see this as the only game he may start if our position in the table is determined.

Moura to me showed he is capable during the time he had has had with us.

Its true he hasnt played against top opposition but if he couldnt get some reasonable amount of time on the field against a team like Stoke then when woukd we know.

We know there have been players that turned out really well that didnt get so much respect early with us,Bale for one and its too early to say where Moura is headed but here is a game where he easily could have played.

Its possible Poch doesn't like say the defensive side of his game,its posdible...buthe hss shown inventiveness from mid on up...
So why not play him. Its baffling.

Moura was very unhappy with not playing for PSG....if he wasnt good enough why pay 28 mil or whatever for him to sit?

For fucks sake. We're in great form. Why would Poch suddenly drop a player for Lucas for no reason? Just because he hasn't played, it doesn't mean he's not 'good enough'. Christ.

I just don't understand why you're bothered about this. We are on a great winning streak. Why do you care if Lucas isn't playing? It's not like we've desperately needed him.

We are yet to lose a domestic game in 2018, have five attackers in good form already authorities four places up for grabs, and he’s nowhere near match fit.

Next season...

Thankfully we haven't found ourselves chasing games recently, so Poch has been able to sub on more defensive players to hold onto the lead.

I'm guessing if we had needed a late goal we would have seen more of Lucas.

I didnt even get my s


Why do we have an answer?
Yes Ron.

We are unbeaten in 2018 in the league.

We have a settled side.

He hasn't played much this season for either us or PSG, no need to rush him in.

Not rocket science this one

I'd go back over to Harry Hotspur if I were you Ron...even he doesn't close you out as quick as this :X3::censored:

It's not like Poch suddenly changed his style of man management... don't know why some are surprised - he had quite a bit of playing time in his early days - look at how Son started and turned out in the end... Poch knows what he's doing

Hahaha Im a HH man but just thought Id give it a go here as some were quoting from this site and I want to check it out.
Its too confusing here and huge like being dropped off in New York looking for an English paper.
Moura I was interested in getting a reaction.I like what Ive seen..he hascan eye for space and can beat a man...time I guess will tell.
We have had in the past so much problems with getting through park the bussers that a Plan B would have been good..even Eriksen and Moura...but Poch has his syatem..live or die with it

Cheers!
