Im pleased that he as least had a go in the last couple games but ill have to see a lot more before justifying his signing.
Very harsh that, he's got a lot more to his game than just raw pace, some of the balls he threaded through to Coutinho in particular today were almost Alonso-esque as was his pass to Balotelli last week at Old Trafford. He's not just a fancy dan he's prepared to put in a shift defensively too.
Besides he's only 20 and 99% of players are a lot better at 23/24 than they are at 20 so there's a tons more to come from him yet.
In a couple of years time that £20m we spent on him will look like chicken feed
I concur fully Yakka ,in fact that appraisal of Markovic is almost laughable ,the lad has come in and gave us far greater attacking options,and his relevance to the
teams offensive play is practically incontrovertible ! Seriously nonplussed how any one could undermine his importance in complementing a now more direct and
acute attacking style
