The Marvelous Nakamba Thread

[Gillette]

Sorry lads but I've worked it out.
Marv injured for half a season, comes back with a couple of games left and plays great.

Hmmm.......we've been here before.....I'm afraid he's off to Man City.

I'd accept 100m for him.

 

[Moose66]

I'd accept 100m for him.

And then we can buy 3 players to replace him

I'm looking forward to Purslows video explaining which part of Marvs game Phillips, Kamara and Bissouma are replacing.

His goalscoring obviously!

That would be a fair swap

Well he had a shot last season if I remember correctly so he's due another one. A shot that is.

Yes he had a shot against Liverpool in the 7-2 but so did everyone else

Every now and then, something worthwhile comes out of Birmingham Live..... here's the most recent example, regarding Marvelous's wonderful charity work back in Zimbabwe.

and there was everyone outside of Villa slating the lads' collection of Lamborghinis

The lad's an absolute legend off the pitch and his attitude on it is exemplary. He's unfortunately some reliable passing away from being a long term solution for us.

Yes 85% pass success is shocking

 

[Platypus]

It's the 15% where he plays the opposition's best player clean through that are the problem.

Yep the same with Tyrone Mings,Buendia and McGinn but people ignore that too

McGinn does this all the time though

 

[Villan57]

McGinn does this all the time though

He does it over 10% more than Marv does so the stats say but Mings makes the most telling feck ups

 

[sirdennis]

McGinn does this all the time though

Bit of an over exaggeration there.

 

[Wicked Messenger]

Naka and SJM have a far too regular habit of giving a present to the opposition when under no pressure. If only other teams would do the same for us! If they can’t cut this out of their game their position will rightly be in question.

 

[Platypus]

McGinn does this all the time though

I find McGinn's tend to break up promising attacks but usually not in too dangerous areas (apart from a couple of glaring exceptions). Marv's almost guaranteed at least one howling, kamikaze, "have one on me" pass per game.

 

[Pangloss]

McGinn is an expert at giving the ball away when we’re pressing high up the pitch on the attack, this then launches a dangerous counter attack when we have limited numbers defending.

He does this more often than Nakamba giving it away in a dangerous area.
