Mannsverk is not a Championship player

Sat Feb 15, 2025 3:23 pm

He's too good for this league. His touch and passing is very very strong, there was one misplaced pass but that was it.

Think him and Chambers can do well together.

But I'll be shocked if he stays next season, a cut above everyone else in midfield.

Agree not championship, North London club already poised to sign if he proves his fitness with us

Several times he was frustrated as he'd break the lines but the rest of the bang average players put it back to Bagan/didnt have the vision. He threw his arms up a few times and was spot on.

A great player with great vision and ability to break up play but also dribble out of problems.

He's going to be under utilised due to a lower calibre of team mate.

The quality is there for all to see. He was brilliant in the first half and up until Rambo came on then Rambo took control.

Careful what you say, I was told off for calling him brilliant on Tuesday.

A very intelligent player

I think we’re going overboard… he’s ok but is he really dominating the midfield and influencing the game to any great extent…. Same with Robertson, massive lovin for him… he’s ok. Both these players may develop in to top top players but….

He’s definitely high end championship level at least. He almost single handedly made us the better team in the first half. I’d like to see the midfield 3 being himself, Rambo and Robertson. They can all play the quarterback role as well as box to box or 10. Rubin can come in for Ramsey for midweek games.

Not to cause an argument, but whilst both myself and Ned said we were lucky to get him because of his injury, 80% of this board were of the opinion he was:

‘Untested at Championship level, only here because he isn’t fit enough’

Shows how much you all know.

Very true. Some were pretty negative about his signing, mainly based on his match fitness, but he was impressive today - without him I think we may have been rolled over in midfield.

I thought colwill was better in 2nd half when he drove forward and attacked their defence....much better...wish he would do that more consistently
