Davy Klaassen

[uny_arturo]

Inzaghi explained that Frattesi had a minor discomfort before the match and he's left with either Klaassen or Sensi for that role. Glad he put in a shift. Not easy to play so little and be subbed on to defend a narrow lead in such a crucial game. Well done.

 

[ADRossi]

Like I said in the match thread, he tries hard. He was leading the press in the final five minutes. Credit to him for that.

 

[CoolMan44]

He seems happy to be here, despite the little playing time.

To be fair, we can't even say that he's been bad since he pretty much never plays. Almost all of his starts have been with the Frattesi-Asllani-Klaassen midfield and our entire team rotated. Hopefully he'll have some big moments for the rest of the season as from what I remember, he's pretty good at scoring goals.

wish Sensi would get his minutes...

he came on and did 2 back passes that could have lead to a counter goal.... so not the worst player on the field but a close 2nd

This transfer still baffles me !!

This transfer still baffles me !!

Just a last minute signing to fill a squad spot. Inzaghi sees Asllani only as a regista and he doesn't trust Sensi so they needed to sign someone. Klaassen was cheap and was available.

 

[CoolMan44]

Still surprised we didn't just get Pereyra if that was the case. He's a fairly solid Serie A player. I guess the only difference may be the wages Pereyra was asking for and he could have wanted a multi-year contract while we only wanted a player for one year.

 

[uny_arturo]

Given Frattesi’s injury and Simone will never play Asllani in Mkhi/Barella’s position, we absolutely need to give at least 30 mins to Klassen against Salernitana.

 

[CafeCordoba]

We need to start him against Salernitana. Just like last time (had to be taken out at 54 mins )

 

[Javier'sSon]

Knew he was shit the moment I heard Uni said he likes him in one of the earlier podcasts.

 

[Ethor]

Came on as a sub, after that I don't recall that he did anything great or horrible. Guess that's a plus.

It’s difficult to accurately judge the Klaassens and Asllanis of the world when their cameos come alongside other cameo merchants.

I wonder how they would look playing alongside 10 starters for 90mins in consecutive games.

My hunch is that Klaassen would be severe downgrade to Miki, but still serviceable when we have a lead.

Asllani has looked good, but unlucky to have one of the world’s best ahead of him. I want him being more assertive and demanding penalties and free kicks.

I think Arnautovic would be doing much better, but he needs to loosen up. He’s seeming increasingly more dangerous.

Frattesi is a weird one. He’s clearly got something special but hasn’t adapted to the system yet. He’s also had injury niggles throughout the season which may have affected him more than we realise.

Sanchez has looked much better playing as an attacking midfielder rather than a forward.

It’s hard to know how much of our drop in intensity is due to these players coming on and how much of their performance is sapped by our drop in intensity in the third act.

 

[Besnik]

He needs to get himself more involved in the game.

 

[CafeCordoba]

He's basically just a placeholder. Which is just fine. He eats the minutes which Mkhitaryan can't eat, which is not a lot.

I'm okay with it, but also it would be nice if he can bring some impact in our game. He's too unknown whenever he plays. I can understand that his playing time is very limited, but he's got experience, so normally one would expect him to take some more responsibility in these minutes he features.

He is not capable to bring impact in our game, plain and simple.

 

[Tamirk]

I still don't know wtf he doing here, this clown make me miss to gags...
BTW, why for the love of God he take that pen????????????

 

[M.Adnan]

Wasn't expecting much from him anyway.

 

[Alex de Large]

From now he will be called "Mr Nobody"

 

[Darth_Ausilio]

Davy is an experienced player, with big shoulders. He asked to take the penalty, whereas others were too nervous. I am confident he will show his value next season after we extend.
