I just look at him and think, can we rely on him to provide a goal threat. Good example of a percentage player hitting the ball into areas of goal... could have a hat trick yesterday, Needs to become clinical to step up to what this club needs, Credit where its due, provided a goal threat and opened his acount for us in the league. We need more from everyone and him.

Still bothers me that he seems to want to avoid the physical stuff. Not a fighter for the ball.

Funny, gave him sh*t about his hair cut before he turned up but last few games, I have seen that he carries a threat going forward we really need. Think he'll be more effective than Sancho, hes more direct and yeah, seeing him be more physical would be good, but more goals, more invovlment, more time to bed in, deare i say it but could actually work out. Still think its a signing to appease Enzo Fernandez but hey, hope he finds his feet with us. Him and Gittens on the left could go on and be quite a double act.

Are you a brand new Chelsea fans?

21 year old winger with good analytical number for 40 m and reasonable salary.

I dunno Bob. I'm on the fence. I agree with @GarnachoCheese that he might not Brie what we need.

Nah, he is not what we need. We need an elite winger (this has been the case in the last 3 seasons)

But 21 year old winger with good analytical number for 40 m and reasonable salary. This is exactly what our SD want

Im simply trying to find positives. What I've seen so far isnt great or bad... pretty middle ranking imo but at least he carries a goal threat and isnt afaid to have a pop.

Fernandez hasnt settled at the club and if he has then his performances simply dont show it, but there was some nice interplay between the two.

Hopefully Fofana will take Enzo for a close inspection of a tree.

I have read this five times and still have no idea what you mean. What tree? That's not a type of cheese, is it?

A lot on here don’t seem to think Garnacho is that grate, whereas I am personally quite fondue of him.

All it will take is one Muenster performance to change people’s minds.

It won’t though, as everyone already knows he has the odd good performance in him, in addition to the odd wonder goal out of nowhere; so that won’t prove anything. He’s a lottery player.

Certainly ahead of the pecking order vs Gittens, but I'd still play Pedro at LF with Cucurella overlapping.

Blasphemy. Don’t let Maresca see you say this.

Or possibly try Garnacho at LF with Mozzarella overlapping?

I don't know quite what to make of him, a nice finish for the goal but how sustainable is it to rely on a winger who cannot carry the ball or beat a marker off the dribble?

Garnacho reminds me of a certain type of winger from yesteryear in the Premier League - Freddie Ljungberg, Morten Gamst Pedersen, Stelios Giannokopolous - who were rubbish at dribbling but was great at gliding into positions and running off the shoulder of the last man to stretch play, and chipping in with goals and cutback assists. I don't think we have the style of play to take advantage of this kind of player, but I wonder if his best position is more as a forward.
