Yes Andones goal came straight to mind.
Have to say Mitomas Wolves goal was better though and his recent Chelsea goal too. Jakhanbasks goal too was sublime
Get him back for Norwich! Was suprised to see him go, he was one of our best players pre season and seemed to really fit Hurzelers style of play. His set piece deliveries were awesome too. Can definitely see him being a defensive liability but he also really suprised me in that department agains...
God I already forgot about Sarmiento. We really do have an embarrassment of riches in the midfield area now, I thought Moran also look quality preseason, he was awesome against Villareal, played extremely similarly to Ayari though.
In Jan we will have Gomez too, so for the CAM position we can...
Quality form him yesterday. I was thinking, when was the last time we had a really solid keeper? As far back as Kuipers? Stockdale had a good season in the championship before he turned into a dick head
Yes, I’ve also noticed that it’s not purely about his control but more about his balance and strength when dribbling, he doesn’t get knocked off the ball often and when dribbling forward under physical pressure he always seems to keep his balance - something that it’s quite rare to find
What doesn’t work is what others have pointed out, he doesn’t score goals and isn’t the best defensively (although IMO he improved defensively and strength wise significantly over the last 12months). If you only want to play 2 in the middle of the park you need more dynamic players (O’Riley). He...
Mintehs potential is insane but he is raw.
Adingra has had a point to prove in both games and he has done that quite dramatically. What more could he do to convince Hurzeler that he deserves to start? I think we may see him starting against Arsenal
Man of the Match today, unreal how much he’s improved in 12 months. He’s now better thank Dunk IMO and still so young. I’d say he’s the one player we cannot loose/sell for any cost (although this is also due to lack of options behind him)
Game was screaming out for Baleba from the start, we have to start either him or Weiffer in the centre of midfield every game. Milner and Gilmour are both great players but not together
Mega mega surprised by this. I thought this would be Barcos breakout season, he seemingly fits Hurzelers tactics perfectly with attacking wing backs with killer crosses.
But more importantly as everyone else has pointed out, we DESPERATELY need full backs. We are so so short in that area even...
