They Needed a Minivan but Got a Gio: Reyna at Nottingham Forest (Olf Borussia Dortmund)

its almost like his form went down once they started (primarily) playing him wide rather than centrally...

 

This ... plus by selling they can sell them out of country and keep them out of the hands of Bayern forever. Having Lewandowski and Hummels in his prime waltz over to Bayern should never be forgotten.

 

As unfortunate as it is to say, he's been in a slump since the back end of October. It's a lot longer than a month.

 

Remember when he was good and we were happy?

 

He's still good.

It's up to you if you want to be happy.

Bench Bürki, win 3-0. Hmmm

 

they win but Gio looked meh .... Sancho shined for sure .... but most of Gio's typical touches looked like he was shifting into a back pass Bob role. He was simply unlucky that on the Reus take down in the box that the ref did not hold the whistle for a play on because Gio would have scored (versus Sancho getting the PK on the Reus penalty) but such is life. He needs one really good match under his belt to turn it around. At least he is healthy and running at pace again.

 

Reyna did not look good today. Very sloppy.

 

Reinier scored. Don’t look now, but he might take some of gios time.

 

It's OK. This is life as a professional on a good team. He'll fight through this and come out better or he won't. Plenty of time to find out.

 

Reyna with a 3.5 kicker rating against Bielefeld. Average rating is 3.5 but he was rated the lowest of the BVB starters.

 

Isn't Reinier on a one year loan? I suppose he could, but it's March, and I know where I put my investment.

 

two year loan.

 

On the bench for the Pokal match today. I am watching on ESPN News.

If your energy level doesn't pick up, I'm going to have to insist you get checked for mono.

 

Don’t think he gets pt today

 

Two subs used - Sancho scored on his last touch coming off in favor of Hazard; Schulz came in as an injury sub for Guerriero early. 1-0 Yellow team.

 

Hazard and Delaney have both gone down hurt, so Gio should at least be warming up.
