Douglas Luiz - Confirmed confirmed

[Brend'Watkins]

I like Luiz but I don't think he is Man City bound at all.  He is no better than what they already have in that position.  He will look good for us as he will get more of the ball because those around him are not as confident with it.

[PaulWinch again]

He might not be better than what they have now, but he’s 22/23. He’ll develop to be top class - he’s already fucking good.

[OCD]

Fernandinho is leaving at the end of the season too.

[Steve67]

He's a good player, he's not a top player, yet.  Not up to Manchester City's level and I don't think he's going back there at all. 

[PaulWinch again]

He was excellent today. He stepped 10 yards further up the pitch in the second half and it killed their attempts to counter. He is such a good player.

[Toronto Villa]

He’s a massive reason as to why we are so much better defensively. A modern day Dennis Mortimer or a rich mans Kevin Richardson where he does a lot of unseen work and can pop up with the odd goal. He’s hugely underrated.

[Monty]

What really impresses me since the beginning of last season is the assuredness and maturity. He just makes the game his personal property.

[paul_e]

I liked the confidence when he lined up for the overhead kick, not many defensive players would even look at that, Luiz looked disappointed he didn't have enough space for it.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Just loved his street fighting style. See the Mings' sending off and watch Dougie. I wouldn't mess with him.

[TonyD]

He is only 22. 

Our most important player after Sir Jack.

[eamonn]

I always think he looks like he's going to slow down our attack when he gets the ball as his style is quite languid but invariably he makes an intelligent forward pass.

There can't be many central midfielders at his age with his level of maturity and technical ability. He'd be the player I'd be most gutted to lose from the current squad after Jack.

[Dante Lavelli]

He makes us tick.  He’s arguably more important than any other player.

[fredm]

Just wish he would have a go at goal when he gets near the penalty area.  He has a great kick on him and I can see him pinging it into the top corner if he would only take a chance.

[eamonn]

Neither he nor Jack shoot enough. I think they're both so confident in their control of the ball and belief they can pick a pass in the tightest of corners sometimes backfires on us.

[LeeB]

Neither he nor Jack shoot enough. I think they're both so confident in their control of the ball and belief they can pick a pass in the tightest of corners sometimes backfires on us.

Bloody hell, if this team took any more shots we’d break Opta.
