Philosopher Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 We have to remember preseason has different emphasis for different players. Guys like Bailey, Cash, and Barkley will just be looking to get their fitness up, and not get injured. Whereas guys like Iling-Jr, Barrenechea, Nedeljovic, Barry, and Young will be trying to impress and show their worth. These early preseason games mean very little outside of fitness. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazrim Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 1 hour ago, nick76 said: Apparently Barrenechea means ‘in the down part of the house’ so if he’d had been English he would’ve been called ‘Eddie Basement’….what a great name. Enzo = Henry and Basement = Cellar. Therefore... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_AA_786 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 2 minutes ago, PaulMcGrath_5 said: The simple passing around to keep the ball moving or change attack angles is one thing but the dink over the top through ball and the no hesitation in shooting from outside the boxare great signs as they're features of Dougie's game we need to keep. He did really well for a first run out 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPAngel Posted July 18 VT Supporter Share Posted July 18 4 minutes ago, PaulMcGrath_5 said: Cheers for resharing this. You can actually see him growing in confidence as the clip goes on. I really enjoyed his performance - especially towards the end of the half where he was completely dictating play. It's also interesting that, despite them playing in the same area of the pitch, his involvement massively outweighed Dendoncker's who didn't really get on the ball much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 The quality and power of his passing is very good. Gets his head up v quickly, even in tight spaces. Looks like he doesn’t mind getting clattered either. Hope he had deal with the higher intensity in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. My point was that he wasn't in Juventus's plans, not that he won't do ok for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was injured for a year and was said to be very much in Juventus's plans this season (if all the stuff around the transfer is to be believed).

mikeyp102 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Be really interested to see how he plays against a hard press. Both Dougie and Kamara got caught a couple of times, but then kept on improving there. When done well it’s a key part of our play and if he can turn out and pass around the press it’ll be impressive. Also we all know Unai encouraged Dougie play throughout and always giving advice, was Enzo also getting that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 I've not seen a game that impressive since Gary Gards ripped it up at the Bescot all those years ago. If he goes on to achieve even half of what he did we'll have some player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
