Douglas Luiz - back at Juventus

[wittonwarrior]

You all better be right. I trust you

[West Derby Villan]

He'll be fine

[maidstonevillain]

A class act.

His name should be Dennis. Not Douglas.

[rob_bridge]

How well we do this season largely depend on Douggie and Wes as we have like for like in all other positions

[pauliewalnuts]

He's an extremely important player for us, in that position.

I think he'll turn out to be a great signing.

[Dogtanian]

I think he had a good game on Friday, speedy and nipping at the opposition whenever they had the ball, looked far more comfortable.

I think he’s the type of midfield player we have lacked for a good few seasons now.

[Three Spires Villa]

Looks very, very good

[Mister E]

Am still not convinced he is okay but for me hasn’t got me he villa factor yet. - not physically strong enough is my concern. Okay for a wide player but not for someone playing in a he middle

Blimey, opinions are fine; rabid neurosis less so.

[Dave P]

Since Makelele / Viera / Keane, this position has been vital in Premier a league football. Think how vital Kante was for Leicester etc. This lad will get better and better when he gets to grips with the pace of the game. Ability wise, he certainly has ‘it’.

[Toronto Villa]

He doesn’t score tap ins does he? Outstanding goal again today.

[tomd2103]

Nice position to come on as a sub, but thought he looked good today when he came on and scored a great goal.

[Monty]

He doesn’t score tap ins does he? Outstanding goal again today.

Nope, exclusively thunderbastards.

[Dogtanian]

Left out, some would say harshly, after the international break.  Sees Marvelous play well, Hourihane get a goal... comes on and has to show why he should be playing.

God bless strength in depth!

[Luke8]

Having decent strength in depth and good substitute options is definitely  very important across the season.

Also, must be remembered that we have quite a few players that are young, new to the league and/or country and being in a position to bed them in slowly and not having to rush them is probably helpful. Added bonus if we can bring them into a team that is doing well of course.

[SoccerHQ]

Reminds me of when Lee Hendrie had that six week patch of scoring 3-4 goal of the month shots from 25 yards into top corner.
