pete 2,499 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Did not get a minute today. Is he injured or just so unfit? I wish I could answer but I think we are all asking that question. It is strange. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Dynamo 128 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 He looked unfit and over-weight warming up against Marseille last week. That's just my opinion though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearman 9 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 We really have to give the lad time, time to soak in the environment, moving out of his own country at 27 to continue his career, you can't expect someone like that to hit the ground running - especially before the season hasn't exactly kicked off yet! Herrera the other Mexican with the same challenge at 29 moving to a completely different culture for the first time in his life. Both players will want to succeed, but they have to be given some time to settle in, who knows how long that could take - certainly more than a month surely ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
boabie 230 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Windass got a game so I wouldn't read too much into it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,183 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 The manager has been at pains to say he expects all his players to do their job. Perhaps Pena just hasn't been doing well enough in training to warrant selection ahead of others. FWIW, I'd imagine he'll break into the team soon enough but not until he's more obviously fit and sharp. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oleg_Mcnoleg 50 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Suspect he's behind the others in fitness terms. I'm not overly concerned just yet. Hard to say whether Windass has a future or whether he's being played to keep him in the shop window. But we suddenly have a hell of a lot of midfielders to try to accommodate. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 9,494 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 (edited) I don't think Pena has played for a while, because of the unusual Mexican season. I'm not sure though. I did expect to see him get more game time. Edited July 31, 2017 by Rousseau 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uilleam 5,495 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Pedro Caixinha is holding him back, priming him, like a secret weapon, readying him to cause maximum damage when unleashed. Never play poker with that man. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuGers 477 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 I can't read the title of this thread without thinking back; "Peña, Peña, what's the score!?". 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
