Would you all agree that Qtube can never be a direct replacement for Vucinic? He just doesn't have the creativity or skill on the ball. Not a playmaker. We will struggle big time w/o Vuc

That's what I've been trying to say. No one has the skillset and creativity on our team that Vucinic has (DP and Pirlo aside). Vucinic is such a vital part of our team creatively. I see Quags and Matri battling for the ST position, which TBH is Quag's strongest position anyway.

No one else is concerned about his poor showing today?
He still looked more lively than Vucinic. Fell deeper to win the ball and create from the back. And most importantly, didn't have Vidal, Pirlo or Marchisio in support. He will be a different player with hat t midfield behind him, allowing him to optimise his game by playing closer to goal. Not concerned at all! Was involved in some slick movement and nice touches. I've seen Vucinic fare worse than this. Quag just needs game time.

He will with a little bit of continuity. Similar to Gigi coming back from injury, but doing a lot better with a run of games under his belt. It makes a huge psychological and physical difference to find your feet early in the season with everyone else.

Quag was never play a playmaker to begin with. Neither is Vucinic.

You're being too harsh on Quag. This is his first game as a starter since his last injury, and I really enjoyed his performance last night. Did pretty well and was involved a lot in almost all our chances.

I'm a big Vuci fan but I don't think we will suffer without him like you make it.

Personally, I feel Quag gets more stuck in than Vucinic. He falls deeper, chases the ball more, and is overall a more intelligent move than Vucinic. Who some people seem to suggest is the second coming of Del Piero. As far as skills are concerned, I feel Vucinic has adequate skill for the position he plays in, but nothing spectacular, whereas Quag can do a lot in his role because he has got the talent and class. Just needs continuity to shine through. Right now he wants to break his duck for the season and that's evidently seen I. His game around e box. When he frees up a bit, and gets that goal, he'll be a different player.

“I do not know who will arrive or if anyone will arrive. Certain topics are up the directors, not us as players. Our job is to best welcome any new purchases to the dressing room.

“If you want to aim for great targets then you have to have a large and high-quality squad.”
Sounds like he wants to stay.
