Pre-season specialist Haris Vučkić joins FC Twente


Recommended Posts

Looks off the pace to me, always stretching for the ball, maybe he's just adapting to Championship football 

Lets hope so have not been impressed so far sorry to say

 

He was one who really did some running against West ham in fairness to him. He always seemed to want to get on the ball and to date that was his best performance in a City shirt. He did not change the course of the game but he gave it a go and was constantly looking for and wanting the ball.

 

I would like to see him get in some areas around the box and have a go with his left peg.

 

i thought when he came on we started to pass the ball more on the floor instead of our long ball all the time tactics so i would definatley give him a run in the team what we got to remember is hes used to having more time on the ball and maybe will take a couple of games to get used to our style of play and the new league. no doubt hes got the quality to be an impact player i think

 

feel he should have started against west ham,looked pretty good when he came on.We need to utilise vuckic and liam lawrence and give the likes of don cowie who hasnt stopped grafting all season a rest

Looks very good technically to me. its how to intergrate him into the first XI is the issue.

 

He has ability and a good dig on him. I think he likes playing off the front two, which obviously we don't play at the moment. we need to find a way to fit him in while getting Whitts further up the park.

 

I honestly think he is pants - just about sums up our ambition

 

polo you dont half talk some shit! what has vuckic done that makes him look technically good? finished his one goal well against peterborough at home. besides that i struggle to find anything hes done "technically good" hasnt had much time but in my eyes looks like malkys worst signing so far! for such a big guy hes a big baby, doesn't work hard at all. Not for me sorry, give me joe mason ahead of him any day!!

no he didn't :lol:

 

got to say he did look one-paced - was just standing still while the match took place around him as if he was injured, but i don't think he was  :undecided:

 

He looked  sharp and lively first 10 minutes, winning the ball a couple of times and playing it quickly. Some really good touches when it came to him, one in the corner in particular.

 

He doesn't seem to be alert all the time though. One moment he'll be standing still during an attack and another he'll charge the ball down when he probably didn't need to.

Cardiff City boss Malky Mackay has confirmed loan signing Haris Vuckic will not be returning to the club.

 

The Slovenia midfielder had hoped to be at Cardiff until the end of the season but has been called back to Newcastle United to cover for injury problems.

 

It is a blow for the Bluebirds who could do with him after suffering a 3-0 home defeat to Hull in midweek.

 

"Newcastle have picked up injuries in the last week which means he now has to be on their bench," said Mackay.

 

"We obviously wanted to keep him.

 

"He is a talented individual who is going on to do very well in his career.

 

"Sometimes these things happen and Newcastle had three injuries that they didn't legislate for.

 

"Haris is a terrific young lad to [have] around the place. He is going to be a real talent."

 

Shame, can't see him getting too many minutes here

And Lovenkrands, just remembered.

 

Doesn't change much surely though?  Vuckic would only play central midfield or just behind a striker, maybe on the wing if we're really pushing it.

 

 

I think the club realise we've lost Lovenkrands and Best, and wanted Ranger gone on loan again.  That would leave Ba, Ameobi, Cisse.  An injury to one, and we're dangerously low on options.  Vuckic is a good option to have.

Best guess is Pardew thinks squads a bit thin for the run in, players are tired from the length of the season so injuries are going to happen and rather desperate to get 5th. We do have a reasonable shout to get 4th if Spurs form continues to be so poor and Chelsea similar. It's a long shot but the players should be playing for that.

Anyone see on Sunday when the camera cut to Pardew and Vuckic was sat on the bench staring silently forwards like a cold Slovenian hitman?

 

They should feel lucky he wasn't unleashed on them.. got big hopes for this guy, hopefully if we make Europe next season he can show everyone what he's all about.
