Obinna Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 I am concerned for this team without Eustaquio. Cannot see them naming him, then releasing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InglewoodJack Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Yeah unless my translator is severely broken, the article says he might come into camp late because players playing internationally are given a few extra days off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is on 8 August by the way. There is no problem with the timeline, don't think. Redpunkfiddle, nolando, Obinna and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shway Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 It would make sense. Imo As much as I love hearing/seeing Staq in this squad, it doesn’t make any sense how he’s the only “key” guy there. Transfer or not he needs to cement his spot in that Porto team. Ivan, Corazon, dyslexic nam and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall seeing Loturi either, but may have to watch again and actually look out for him. A lot of that video was attackers doing a shooting drill. Looks like the defenders may have have been in the background doing their own drill. Perhaps he was there? (grasping for straws, admittedly). Edit - upon further review, Loturi is indeed there.

It puts us into underdog status for sure, but I still think we should have a punchers chance. Oso, Hoilett, Richie, Miller, Vitoria, Cavallini and Millar are a good core. Nelson's talent will help and maybe Loturi, Schaffleburg, Brym and JRR will step up and help. PegCityCam and Corazon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearcatSA Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Big loss here for us. It really hurts our chances more than some may believe. If nothing else, his passing decision making, possession maintenance, and positional savvy lessens the likelihood of midfield turnovers and breakdowns leading to counterattacks by the less fancied opponents who will be sitting back in some form of block.

gator Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 He will be missed, I really rate him as a player and believe he has had a major role in moving our program forward from also rans to a team to be reckoned with! He reads the game so well, provides excellent defensive support and is able to transition defensive possession to attack very quickly! In saying all this it is extremely important to see who can step up because Eustaquio will not always be available playing a heavy European club schedule!
