    He is on fire.
    Not Duvan nuclear blast fire but more of a flame thrower fire. :p

    Muriel and Duvan should actually work really well together too. Clearly right now they should be starting together over Falcao.

    Sounds good to me.

    I just don't know if Queiroz would like both of them out there but we should find out in March hopefully

    I'm much more concerned with who's feeding them balls? JFQ is a much better threat with James by his side so hoping James can get these next few months in order so he can come in thru Copa America in ideal form.

    James: physically and mentally, hope his head is in a better place by May/June

    JFQ: any update on this recent injury?

    Cuadrado: out until April I think?

    Not the best game for Muriel but he played 90 minutes which had me doing a cartwheel this morning.

    They can’t all be Zapata scoring every game :)

    Another great game today, even though he didn't score. (he did hit the post, though)

    He started as the main central forward, which he did last week, and actually looked pretty good there. Better than last week...

    However, i liked when he shifted toward the left. This run and gun counter attacking system Fiorentina employs fits him better than any he's played in before.

    I've loved Muriel since he debuted, and, thinking back to it, I think it's pretty sad that the guy has literally only gotten 2 starts for the NT when he was actually in stellar form. I hope he gets a fair shake in CA if he keeps this up.

    The only thing that might hurt him is that his best crosses and passes are usually low and on the ground.
    Queiroz seems to like guys who can consistently whip high air balls in the area
    He may see him as a #9 option and that would suck.

    Very true. Muriel is a cut in guy.

    Honestly, I think James is the only guy we have that can whip in crosses consistently.

    IT is going to be fascinating to see how it plays out since the pieces to the puzzle don't really seem to fit the recent vision of the manager.
    It will force him to adjust and listen to his advisers because our style and his philosophy may clash a bit.

    Another option at FKs???? I never knew he had it in him.
    Queiroz is going to feel like a kid in a candy store when he has the Seleccion practice set pieces.:D
