Seems very raw but could just be that 'x' factor we need going forward with his pace once he settles in.................lets hope so anyhow !

[TheJacko2000]

Think Gnabry will have to wait his turn McManaman has put himself ahead in the pecking order and we know that for the tough games Gardner is an option. Think he'll turn into a key player given time.

I hope so mate. To me it's clear Gnabry talentwise is heads and shoulders above the likes of Gardner and McClean, but will Pulis play him? That is the question.

[Hull Baggie]

Perhaps Pulis will use him as a #10 with McClean and McManaman providing the width.

I was thinking that same aswell.

I would use him on the wing instead of McClean

I think I would start with McClean on the wing then if he was having an ineffectual game move Gnabry onto the wing and Morrison into the #10 role.

[Adder]

He seemed to play more on the left against Port Vale so more of a question of him OR McLean maybe rather than McManaman. Hopefully more positivity at home can see Gnabry start on the left and McManaman on the right.
Agreed Gardner and McLean are more likely to be starting options for away games.

[AlbionBest]

Could have been an X factor signing - maybe coming off the bench in games like tonight?
However, it already seems clear he won't be trusted even when supposed trying to win home games like tonight so whats  the point of this signing?
If bringing on Gardner for your striker is the answer to winning home games then what's the question ?

[Astle1968]

The signing I was most excited about, really thought this guy was going to be a star for us.

1 month later I'd be surprised if we he starts more than 2/3 games for us all season with the odd 10 mins off the bench if we are chasing a game.

I can see us watching this guy in the PL for Arsenal in 3/4 years time and wondering how he couldn't get a game ahead of Craig Gardner.

[Scooby Doo]

It can't be long before he starts to get game surely? Unfortunately he might not be working hard enough to get into a Pulis side but should be considered for the 1 role if that's the case. Surely out wide he'd be a marked improvement though.

[labaggies]

Maybe bringing him to the Hawthorns, had more to do with PR, that football. I wonder if he was ever going to be part of our first team set up.

Yet again the summer transfer period was disgraceful. I feel we are all taken for fools.

[Signor_Maresca]

Let him go in January, horrible to see a talented footballer rot, Southampton were very keen last year before he got injured, let him go to a club that will use him properly.

[Albionic]

First half at naarwich he was poor and rightly got subbed.

Reputation is not everything.

I accept that 45mins is not enough time to make your mark, but it does not stop you working your ass off as a less talented McLean has!

   YES it was the usual rubbish on the transfer period, linked with everybody and got nothing special apart from Evans. How the hell did we buy Lambert, what a load of rubbish. Chester not that much better either. Rondon just another Brown. Were the hell do they get these from? were are the goals coming from when our little boy leaves. AS for Gnarbry, I think he will go back to Arsenal in January { don,t blame him }

[SmethDan]

Give him game time, otherwise we'll never really be any the wiser.

can we afford to though, when we have a squad riddled with non-players, has beens and simply not good enoughs?

I think the second part of your post has answered the question you posed in the first part.
Lots of games left, give it a go.

[Jimmy]

        Rondon Berahino
Manaman Morrison Gnabry
            Fletcher  Yacob
     Brunt    Gmac   Dawson

Maybe?

[Astle1968]

No point him in him being here at present. Yes he adds something we don't have but as we don't use him we still don't have it anyway.

Gnabry, and any other loan signing need to be able to come in to the side from day 1 and make an instant impact. Otherwise they are just taking a space on the bench that could be taken by one of our own players such a Leko, Nabi, Roberts or even Sessegnon.

Seriously has any club been anywhere near as bad as we have in the loan market over the past decade? Lukaku aside there's only really Fortune I can think of who has come even close to being a success.

The significant point of those above signings's is that Pulis was instrumental in the recruitment process'. Had Irvine ,Clarke , Burton or indeed Garlick presided over these poor signing's they would have been hung out to dry.

I may be wrong, but don't we have to sign loan players for the whole season?

[Adder]

A lot of these deals have a January recall option.....I would think Arsenal would want him to get more game time than he's getting.  Not quite sure of the terms of this loan though.

[Astle1968]

The second most talented player we have after Berahino (arguably a more talented footballer to be fair)

Laughable

[Nathan]

If I was Gnabry I'd want to get back to Arsenal as soon as possible while he has still got a bit of flair and talent that hasn't been coached and brainwashed out of him. I feel desperately sorry for the lad.

[botters]

I think that he will go back to Arsenal in January he is wasted with us.
