Piero Hincapie (5)

hincapie must be so happy when arsenal offer him to join because he saw leverkusen is finished after tah, wirtz, frimpong, xhaka, boniface and alonso manager left leverkusen everything mess up

what a lucky man, there is no point stay at leverkusen and also this offer from big club to him probably will not come again next summer,

It’s getting a bit silly now. It’s like they look at how well YT shorts do, as well as things like Tik Tok, and then assume that’s what everybody wants.

Whoever is in charge of media at the club should be handed their P45.

I can see Hincapie doing a tasty job on Haaland . Really winding up Pepe !

Forgot we even have this guy. What’s happening with him?

Injured apparently.

High expectations of this guy, but when is he gonna play if MLS can’t even get gametime?

Cover for Magalhaes perhaps?

It’s a long season. He’ll play.

Don’t think we have to worry about for the time being

I still don’t think we ever needed this transfer, but OK…

I hope we’ll start using MLS more in the middle (that opening some extra space for Hincapie on LB), and more in general. He doesn’t have to be a starter obviously but I think it’s bad for his developement he’s getting so little playing time this season considering he has shown last season he’s alredy more than capable of playing at the highest level.

Is that with Kiwior’s departure in mind?

Did you just say yes @Bl1nk? :rofl:

Yes.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind having him, I’m more worried about him getting enough playing time considering the squad we have and a player at that age needs playing time.

We will also pay a pretty handsome fee too, you can’t be happy with seeing him on the bench most of the time.

I would assume Arteta didn’t expext Calafiori to be this fit this season and wanted to have that type of a player as a LB (Hincapie seems like the same profile), and probably plans to move MSL back into the midfield.

Liked what I saw, looking forward seeing more of him. I think he’ll get another start vs Prague.

I still think his best position is at LB (LWB). He is fast and very aggressive, if allowed to bomb forward he’ll be a menace.

Started the game a bit sloppy and got caught once or twice but overall slots in well.

Cala is the clear starter based on form though.

I have no idea what they are saying with that stat.

Surprised he didn’t get the full 90
