There is always a risk and just about every top team in world will rotate for one off cup games to provide rest and minutes to fringe players. In...

Tbf, the modus has changed and back then you could repair a bad 1st leg with your best XI in the 2nd leg. Now that it is just 1 game the risk of...

He got tactics right the few games before which have been important wins. We conceded silly goals yesterday, didn't create much in fairness which is...

Looks like a kid trying to impress the group of dads playing football.

He should be closer to Inaki on 3rd goal. But his dominance in duel and areial duel is so great. He just can't lose it.

He shouldn't have started, that much is clear. How many games will he get, 2 to 4? Well at least he can use the time to get back to full fitness.

The Athletic claim Chelsea will push for Haaland this summer despite the lack of release clause. Want him to partner Werner.

Good thing is that his shortcomings are obvious. IF there are competent coaches at the club they can work on this with him.

Great game yesterday and in general recently. If he can play like this 50% of the season I'll happily retract all harsh criticisms. In terms of...

Having a physical, competent and determined CB in Araujo next to him is like night and day in terms of quality and Araujo still has plenty to improve...

One of his worst games this season, even without the red card. An unfit/unmotivated Messi is like being a man down. Should have been subbed out at...

So much truth in this. We can't complain Koeman not making subs. Most of the subs simply suck. He needs to rotate more though. He is running...

No without a doubt his game without the ball needs major work. In games where the play is end-to-end it shows more than ever. With the ball at his...

There are plenty of players with a lack of physicality - like Pedri or Iniesta. And thats okay, and would be for Puig. But theres a bare minimum. And...

How is he slow? I agree he is weak, but he is pretty fast and nimble.

I've seen his lack of physical presence, everyone has. He's 5 ft 7 and about 60kg it's clear he needs to work on his game without the ball especially...

Again, thats not my point. Just watch his physical presence on the field compared to other players. Hes just not there. I am not expecting him to...

His bench for yesterday's game was: Neto, Pena, Mingueza, Umtiti, Firpo, Pjanic, Puig, Trincao, Braithwaite. Hard to blame him for the selection....

That's why sitting back vs PSG would be important. PSG is good in counters. They sit back and throw the ball to Neymar/DiMaria or Mbappe. That's...

I think he is on a good course to achieve his goals this season. Just waiting for the reveal that Koeman slept with his wife.

He is right.

The problem is and this applies to many other players that don't get enough game time at clubs, that you can't expect players on bit-part minutes to...

That observation has nothing to do with other players. He really has no physical presence. Just compare him and Pedri. Night and day. And thats not...

Hard to disagree with that. We simply have no natural leaders. Maybe Araujo or de Jong in a few years. On topic: The thing about Griezmanns...

You want actually thought out decision making? When the fuck do you think you are 2011?

Everytime he comes on there is a bunch of zombies around him that have already been run into the ground cause Koeman didn't bother subbing them ever....

Yeah I agree with this is 100%. The last real leaders we had were Xavi and Mascherano and just about every top team in world football has them. You...

It just dawned on me that Koeman is right about him. He doesnt look ready. Too slow and weak, which is very visible when he runs next to other...
