Markelo

Mason - Clark in his early days with us didn't exactly sparkle did he . Need to show some patience

I would argue that those with eyes, could actually see that he did. He had a lot of “nearly” moments very often, even at the beginning. Has he took some time to settle in as anyone would in an unfamiliar environment? Yes, of course.
 
I’m still backing Markelo until such time as he’s played enough to see he’s no good.

between him and Rapha it seems we never get to see new wingers play 😂
 
€5m = £4.3m. Wildschut played more in his first game than Markelo has since he signed so no doesn’t count.

Yes but he had already played 25 Championship games for Wigan 😆
 
None of the above explains why he didn't get a medal or name check while a couple of players with less game time did

He was filmed, Markelo, walking into the Sky Blue Lodge yesterday at Ryton, looked really happy, must have had some personal issues, not able to attend on Sunday perhaps.
 
The vultures will be around trying to get EMC of us as he would command quite a high fee if the occasion arises so we have Markelo in the wings just in case

That's my takeaway from this.
 
Sakamoto is 29 and we don't own any other right wingers (excl. Raphael) so Markelo was picked up to be competition in that role and potentially succeed him. Didn't need to rush him into minutes as we had Esse who'd done well in his first few games.

Lampard talked about succession planning when he arrived. We moved when we did to avoid missing out on him. Like someone else said, we did the same with EMC and that paid off so I'm looking fwd to seeing him after a pre-season. Could be fun to watch.
 
Jesus this isn’t difficult.

Markelo has outstanding stats for a young winger. The club identified him as a summer target but became aware that he might move in Jan and they would miss out if they waited. They therefore brought him in ahead of plan. He’s now had the benefit of training at UK pace and intensity and a few cameo appearances. He and we will benefit from that next season.

He was purchased with Prem intent rather than Champ ahead of other clubs this summer.
 
yeah but look how far away he’s stood from the other squad members. Must be a sign.
He’s been photoshopped in, he’s gone awol and is back in Switzerland, at a yodelling retreat in the Alps. With, uh, Ramon Vega and Marc Hottiger.

That’s a guarantee.
 
If this is the reaction now about a one of our players not being seen. Can you imagine a player being seen getting a paper at tesco express who is not our player. This is going to get mental, scream if you want to go faster.

You saw Adam LeFondre there too!

His buying of 40 cigarettes was a red flag for me.
 
Yeah something isn’t right at all

-Not on the club website (everyone else who signed in Jan is, even Yang)
-Not involved in the trophy or getting a medal or even read out for an applause
-signed for around £4.5m and can barely get a look in
-not even in the squad today even though he’s been around Ryton. Surely today would have been perfect for minutes?

It’s all way too much of a coincidence for it just to be nothing

What’s your suspicion then

Honestly not sure but there are too many things for it to be a coincidence. The whole situation just feels off
could he have not just had a family problem which means why he wasn’t at the trophy celebration and injured which is why he’s not in squad?

Could well be yeah but why isn’t he on the website where all the other January signings are? Why has he been barely getting minutes or even in the squad when the outlay is £4.5m

Just seems a bit strange no?
 

Shit I’ve been rumbled.

On a separate note I’ve heard we are signing Fatawu and Daka from Leicester and Haji Wright isn’t playing today because he’s been shagging Lampards wife and will be sold to Turkey in the summer
