When you have got a name like that, it's a massive burden to carry around with you, but I am told he is a good player, so we'll have to wait and see.
area break coming confident decisions fit forward hopefully itself manager picking push ready season squad table team tough
We've got the international break coming up, though, so hopefully all but Luque will be ready after that. I'll look forward to that because as a manager you want to have tough decisions to make.
