Was in the process of doing this, just got distracted by the NFL!
I don't think he will be worse than Antonini, still young and good versatility. Could be a decent, useful player for us. |

No one can do worse than Antonini... thing is, we need someone who is a whole lot better than Antonini is, and Furby is not the one. Galliani said for a reason he's signed as midfielder, because that's where he doesn't suck.
Sad but true, but I prefer Bonera as leftback until Zambrotta is back. |

Unless we sign another fullback, I want him as leftback. He might not be brilliant in that position, but he certainly can't be worse than Antonini.

He has a lot to learn and hopefully he catches up with our level. He's weakness isnt defending but the lack of concentration.

According to Il Corriere dello Sport, Urby has been training specifically lately in order to be used as a leftback in the future.
Link I like. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) |

I think Urby has been steadily improving (albeit a bit slowly) and that's a good sign. he was all over the pitch last night and was behind many of our attacks like the one that resulted in the third goal.
I don't get all the criticism he gets. |

Yesterday was the first time in many games he's looked effective as opposed to being a 5th wheel. If you compare him with say the incisiveness of Cassano who he replaced you will get the criticism.
But then again yesterday we had Cagliari on the ropes..so.. we shouldn't read too much into it. Hopefully he goes on from here to improve. |

Urby is a utility player, think Brocchi.
However, he is much more skillful that Brocchi and has held a first team spot at Ajax. He is good in that he fills the gaps and considering we now have Mesbah, I doubt he will feature as a LB anytime soon. Again, he is a utility player that can fill in that role as he can several midfield positions - However, on average, his performance is nothing to admire really, yesterday was probably the first time that I actually so him with confidence on the ball. Lets hope his form continuous to improve. |

Will be interesting to see how Marwijk actually uses him.

Yeah, could be. And who plays the LB? Aren't they a bit thin in that area?

When we get Aquilani and Boateng back, I really want to see him as LB. He seems like a very tactical aware player, so I don't think it would be a problem trying him there for a coupe of games. Might turn out a blessing for us.
