How long do Dier and Wanyama need to get to Poch-level fitness I wonder

Yup, liked what I’ve seen of LoCelso and was gutted when he got injured. Hopefully the 2 of them can reinvigorate our midfield once they’re up to speed.

Been and gone. They're at Poch-level knackered.

Imagine him completely fit. He's a beast

Showing all the signs of becoming a truly top class player. One of the clear positives of the season so far.

Considering he has had a full Poch pre season - how out of shape was he when we got him if he isnt fit now!?

He isnt out of shape
He is adapting
People are forgetting he is learning a new language and team too
No coincidence his mates are the French lads

He looks over weight and out of puff and not as agile as he should be - suggests out of shape, or "not fit enough", or "Needs to lose weight" to me...
And thats nothing to do with settling/language etc.

I just think it’s his natural style
And Poch wouldn’t be playing an out of shape player

Old Poch might not, but who knows these days?
I dont think NDombele looks anything like as fit as his team mates, and certainly like he is carrying a few extra pounds. Thats not style.
You dont, thats fine as well.

I just think we look at players without knowing the actual details and appearances can be deceiving

Andy Thompson
The details of him huffing and puffing, seemingly unable to sprint/chase later in appearances and not making the full 90 are all there to be seen...
Personally I think its a positive.
If he is looking this good now, while seemingly out of shape, what is he going to be like when he is lean and properly in shape?

Or son, Moura or Dele.

Been saying the same thing since we signed him, most players need to adapt to a much faster game here and as you say living in a different country is not easy for most.

He was mine as well, once he gets up to speed with the Prem i think he will/could be a star.

Emil Zatopek, one of the greatest long-distance runners of all time looked like he was struggling when he ran. But that was just his style. While it's likely that N'dombele isn't yet in full "Poch shape" I don't think you will see his style change much when he is. Nor does it have to. If he just keeps doing what he did last night, I don't care if he looks like he smoked the biggest reefer he could lay his hands on.
