You consider them similar players?

They play same inverted position albeit on different sides, although Lamela is more of a harrier / presser and GKN seems more a pacey winger.

But their circumstances are similar in a way that they are having to adapt to a new country and both quite young and GKN like Lamela before him, should not be written off too early.

No, I think you're normally a good poster but way out today

Well I guess we all have our crap days lol.

I probably might be over posting a bit as bored at work and feeling a tad crap so could be a tad delirious.

Agreed but think we said that once or twice and today Poch's thinking was fuck it, I've got nothing to lose here. It worked but he is out trump card and should be used more often

Still don't get how this guy is behind Sissoko in the pecking order.

Been thinking the same thing since January. Until Janssen and GKN came on Sissoko offered very little, albeit a bit better than usual performance from Sissoko, these two changed the game. I just wish Poch had made the decision to bring on GKN a bit sooner, I reckon he would've scored a goal for us tonight given a little more time. For Dele's goal he was arriving at the far post and if Dele had missed the ball GKN would been there to tap in for us. His movement and speed is so obviously needed in our squad.

It's too bad it seems that he'll never get a proper chance to grow into the squad, I always felt he could become a dangerous weapon.

Be nice if he gets a chance to show something with the games we have left, probably won't get the chance though
