Topic: Kabak signs

[killer-heels]

I’d play him tomorrow. If we have him on a try before you buy basis then throw him in.

[Tobelius]

Can't we just call him Bill?

I'll call him Al.

[Shaneee.]

Hopefully he starts tomorrow

[macmanamanaman]

Can't we just call him Bill?

Bob's his uncle

[newterp]

I'll call him Al.

His name is Robert Paulson.

[CHOPPER]

I'll call him Al.

And he shall carry the number of the massive fucking weapon, and no one can buy or sell a player, except for he, who carry the number of the massive fucking weapon.

[Dr. Beaker]

Bill Kabak?

And Ben Davies.

[Fromola]

The league hasn't gone. No need to throw in the towel yet when there is still plenty of football to be played.

If nothing else it's essential we get top 4.

[Red_Rich]

Exactly.  We've got to aim for top spot.  That might see us only finish in the top 4 but as Jurgen has said many times, you don't just aim for a minimum of 4th otherwise you might finish 5th.

[Bobinhood]

I'll call him Al.

Thats enough of that, Betty.

[BigCDump]

every time i open this i expect to see signs that say Kabak.

every time.

I think the OP missed a trick with the title. Should have used Welcome Kabak.

Or a variation: Nice to see you Kabak.

[Tobelius]

[Slippers]

Yep,and then it's welcome to Thursday nights in Elbonia.

Bill and Ben, Bill and Ben, The centre back men.

The Kop would have loved it.

Not sure Ali would've liked being the weed in the middle though [emoji3]

Ozan means "poet" also "turkish philosopher"
Kabak means "pumpkin" but it also means "bald" and "rotten, unripe vegetable/fruit" (it's mostly used for watermelon.)

[MrBernard]

Nutmegging Trent in training.

He looks confident.

I have a good feeling about Kabak.  Throw him in vs City.

Agree, sink or swim, need to get him in there.

[BOBSCOUSE]

Looks like some player in this analysis video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_vcYJTPMHw&t=133s

The boy can travel with the ball no doubt, and has strength and confidence.

I like.

Felt like I was watching a decent DM playing in defence - seems familiar!

[RainbowFlick]

Hoping Pumpkin can start today. It's early days but it's such a waste having both Hendo and Fab in defence.

I'm sold.

Stik him in the team!

[stockdam]

Hard to know whether to throw him in with Fabinho and let Henderson play in midfield.

Always difficult to tell from YouTube compilations, but the things that stood out for me were: looks very comfortable and confident in possession, not afraid to bring it out of defence, works hard, and makes himself available for an outball - all important factors in our setup.

The transfer arrangement is perfect, and if he comes good and we buy him in the summer, it could be a silver lining after all the bad luck we've had with injuries. He could also prove invaluable in helping us manage Virgil and Joe's return next season.

Personally I think it's a game too soon for him, although I get the impression that he would love to start this.

[deano2727]

I'd be surprised if he played today. If there is one game in world football you wouldn't expect Klopp to throw a new signing in at CB, this is it.

In saying that, he has been known to spring a few surprises, Klopp. 

[markedasred]

My thought about playing him against City is that he will be at least as good as about half of the people who have played in our defence this season so far. This is massively offset though in terms of risk factor by how much him freeing up a midfielder strengthens our midfield, and to some percent, attacking ball supply. He is also fractionally less vulnerable in defence because his being in place allows a defensive mid to be in front of him. It also means that we have a slightly stronger bench for the 14 man game we are going to play against a Pep team.

Well here the lad thought he left a sinking ship, now he’s just exchanged the sinking ship for another

(Im joking, kinda)

[AmSeeker]

You buy an emergency centre back - then don't play him? Not like he is not match ready - he's been playing regularly in a division just as strong as the Premier League.

[Caligula?]

If he doesn't play in the next match then I don't even know.

[HeartAndSoul]

We waited till deadline day to get the centre backs in. Can't expect to just chuck them in after 2 training sessions. The fuck up was waiting 31 days in the month before signing them

He played last week against Werder Bremen. He's fit. Fabinho and Henderson are desperately needed in midfield.

Strange.

[The G in Gerrard]

Not sure why this thread is being commented on.

He'll start next week imo.

[Ratboy3G]

I'm not surprised in the slightest that Kabak (or Davies) didn't play today, I think with a week ahead of the Leicester game we can hopefully see Kabak and possibly Davies starting with Fab and Hendo back in midfield where we are really missing them.

[DelTrotter]

It's because we just got smacked in our own ground with two central midfielders at centre back I think

[Lone Star Red]

We’ve got little to lose by throwing Kabak (and/or Davies) in starting against Leicester and beyond. At the rate we’re going, top 4 is looking increasingly uncertain. Get Hendo and/or Fabinho back in midfield.

Agree 100%.

He's not even been here a week. What's our results been like with Fab & Hendo at CB this season for three previous games they started?
