Baggio Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Not only a gifted player but he's got the footballing brain to go with it. From his limited game time I'd still pick him over Obertan, and Barton for that matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 He looks a class act, very impressed with what we've seen of him so far Ditto. Still maintain I'd like to see what he can do on the left when running at the full-back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I appreciate this is a stupid comment given the the limited glimpses we've so far seen (and you tube), but I think once he gets in he will quickly be seen as the best player in the team. Seems to have it all. Goals, crosses, passes, dribbling and all played with a cool calm persona. Literally cant wait. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I think he'll go on to be one of our best players, no doubt in my mind. We just haven't had to rush him in because the team has been doing so well. The issue of whether he can play RW, or whether Jonas can be switched over, I have no idea about though.

Colocho Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 He has the ability to play RW, but I feel he'd be much more effective as an LW given his attributes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 He has the ability to play RW, but I feel he'd be much more effective as an LW given his attributes. Just let him and Jonas rotate wings during the match. He also seems quite good at finding space for himself and floating between positions. So we've got the potential to have quite a fluid attack.

Guest axel Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I like the idea of him playing LW better than RW, but Jonas is better at defending and Raylor would be pretty screwed with Marveaux in front of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been thinking for a while that a front (mid) 3 of Jonas, Arfa & Marv would have licence to interchange all day. In front a lone striker, behind Cabaye and Tiote.

Wil Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Watching the Wigan highlights again last night, some of the interplay between Ben Arfa and Cabaye, and Marveaux when he came on, it's just so exciting to think how our play may develop as the season goes on. It almost feels as though our season is just starting, in terms of potential on the pitch. There's such a great platform to build on now, I reckon we're going to become a really exciting team to watch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's such a great platform to build on now, I reckon we're going to become a really exciting team to watch. It's what many of our fans missed on Saturday. It seems to have gone over their heads almost as much as the ball was flying over Cabaye's head before we brought Hatem on for one of the big men and started to play football. As for Marveaux, it will be interesting to see him in a wide position but I think he'd be pretty tasty in a free role in front of the midfield as an alternative to HBA as well.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Definitely more exciting times to come, maybe after the big 3 games! Santon should bring something extra as well, then take us into January ready to buy the final pieces of the puzzle. [/horriblynaive] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Yeah assuming once he comes into the team on a regular basis he'll really add something. Apart from Obertan's pace and some glimpses in the Blackburn game at home we've been pretty impotent down the right in general. Simpson is a decent defender but pretty poor going forward. Marveaux should help to change this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NG32 Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Santon on the right for the over lap option and Marveaux in front of him. taylor on the left until Jan.. Marveaux the Nobby replacement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikky Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 He did ok last night. Cut inside a lot and ran from the middle. An intelligent passer of the ball. For me he'll be better off having Santon behind him. We could cause team problems with him cutting in and Santon running out wide Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
