Vázquez 12:29 - Oct 21 with 4052 views | Tom1912 | Haven't seen this mentioned but I thought his movement was excellent when he came on. Bust a gut chasing them down, which was good to see but what I was really pleased to see, was his movement when we were in possession. As we moved over the half way line he was always moving and looking for space-you could almost sense the despair from the likes of O'Shea who must have been a bit fed up that after a grueling 75 minutes and at 4-0 down, he was going to have keep up with a 22 year old with fully charged batteries. It created space for others and gave our players a possible option, which hopefully in the future can be exploited a little more. Think he's got a lot of potential. Certainly a different type of option to Bony. | | | | |
Vázquez on 13:23 - Oct 21 with 3254 views | treboethjack | I noticed that too, would personally like to see more of him. Even at 4-0 he was running back to the half way line pressuring their players. Good player. | |

Be nice if we could buy him on the cheap (clause in the loan to buy anytime?) Think he is going to be a good asset to any club that gets him. Or does the way we play just suit certain players? | |
| If you wake up breathing, thats a good start to your day and you'll make many thousands of people envious. |

Vázquez on 15:22 - Oct 21 with 2969 views | JackSomething | Exactly the kind of player we want coming on late in a game when we're leading (or clinging on to a draw maybe). Perhaps not the best goalscorer (yet), but will work his socks off. | |

Vázquez on 05:34 - Oct 22 with 2637 views | mljonzy | I thought he looked hungry and seemed like he really wants to be a big part of our plans this season. For a long time I have been desperate to see a striker with pace and a hard worker. I also loved the way he was direct running in behind defenders and harrassing them. | | | |
Vázquez on 07:08 - Oct 22 with 2606 views | wr72 | He's most certainly an improvement on our last 2nd choice striker. [Post edited 22 Oct 2013 7:08]

Vázquez on 07:33 - Oct 22 by Dr_Winston | Not hard. Like what I've seen of him so far, although talk of a permanent deal is a little premature IMO. He's got the right instincts when it comes to playing our way. Given time he could be a valuable asset. |
He's a trier,theres no doubt about that but whether he has the quality to link up and chip in with the odd goal remains to be seen. Like the look of him though. | | | |
Vázquez on 09:23 - Oct 22 with 2467 views | jruss1 | Last time we played 3 games in a week he got a start at Palace. I assume the plan maybe the same this week, but I suspect he'll play Thursday rather than West Ham which suits a more physicaly forward like Bony. | | | |
Vázquez on 09:29 - Oct 22 with 2454 views | yescomeon | Don't get what people see myself, not done enough for a start for me. Nowhere near the same level as Bony, nice to have options though he's certainly a different type of striker to Bony. | |

I think some of us are comparing him to the last fella we had on loan.Hardly surprising,is it? | | | |

So far, if I'm honest, he reminds me of that certin fellah. Aside from a good bit of work to keep the ball in play to set up I goal I can't say I've seen him do much so far. | |

Vázquez on 09:48 - Oct 22 with 2412 views | Tom1912 | There's a big difference between Shecter's headless chicken efforts and the way in which Vásquez tries to pull defenders out of position and create space for others. He might not be the complete package yet (it seems his finishing needs work) but it seems he has potential. | | | |
Vázquez on 10:53 - Oct 22 with 2337 views | perchrockjack | No what we d like is to see ,for example,Bony putting more pressure on the opposition back four as all the great strkets do /did;Ian Rush the best example. Unless you are of the highest standard and bury every chance given its a bit of a luxury. As has been posted previously he has potential-he should have for what we paid- but he has to work physically and any comparisons with any other player is irrelevant. I think and hope that soon we ll see him bearing down on goal and flaying everyone in his path before hitting the back of the net. He s a significant investment and I agree we ve got to be patient but at the same time he s got to produce the goods. Final word about His getting te ball from Michu for the pen. CLASS ACT FORM SENOR M | |

7 in 13 games or 1 in 2.And he'll never be an Ian Rush type player because Rush was Liverpool's first line of defence.Bony's game doesn't revolve around chasing down defenders,he prefers to conserve his energy for when a chance becomes available.And it's didfficult to argue with those stats. | | | |
Vázquez on 11:11 - Oct 22 with 2289 views | shandyjack | whats the point in needlessly harrassing the defenders near there own box when 9/10 they just pass it around you and you have wasted energy chasing a nothing ball. Rarely do you see this sort of action leading to something other than a punt down the field | |

Vázquez on 11:17 - Oct 22 with 2278 views | Swanfan1 | Yes, there is a clause in the option to buy him for 1 or 2M. quid at the end of the season | |

You've got to close defendrs down mun.But luckily we have Michu to do that.Have you seen the number of times he chases pass backs to the goalie and sometimes (West ham) it comes off. | | | |
Vázquez on 11:43 - Oct 22 with 2232 views | shandyjack | i'd rather my lone CF conserved his energy for when it matters in a game, not knacker himself out closing down a defender who will just play it around him. But different people like to set their teams out in different ways i suppose | |

I think it's £2.5m. He's certainly worth it based on early showings. | | | |
Vázquez on 12:29 - Oct 22 with 2141 views | Uxbridge | He's a very different option, and we need those. Too early to say if he's up to muster but he's miles better than the Israeli Messi. | |
