painful how you can see that he would have been able to get back and put in a tackle if he'd run at more than 70%

He's dangerous but in the way where you know he's not really going to score. Entertaining to watch but you just know it's going to break down with the final ball, one way or another.

My biggest grivance with him is probably the same one I had with Messi in his last years. Or Rakitic. You can feel his attitude contaminating the rest of the team. You can feel his influence stifling innovation. Any midfield with him in it is going to be build on his premise, his vibe. We...

I don't really understand why we're playing him every single game. Even if, all aspects considered, he actually is our best option, we're not going to compete for anything important this year so what does it really matter? Might as well start trying out new things with Frenkie or Casado. Well...

I think "passing quickly to the first man" is a very stingy way to describe his game. He did nothing spectacular but I think it was pretty visible that we progressed better and more smoothly in attack when he was around.

i'm beggin you mate, just lay it off get on with it

i could see Kays blossoming into a Noah Lang type of profile but maybe i'm too optimistic about his work ethic

someone's been checking my notes biggest talent of Danish football history still has to be the great Mohamed Zidan tho

Realistically, having our flaws exposed while stilling getting away with three points is actually the best you could hope for.

Keep him on the right and stick Dembele on the left in a 4-3-3.

why not just say what the XG score ended up being instead of these vague reductive inferences? understat has us at 3.37 against their 1.56

well that goal buys him a pass for now (even though I would have liked him to square it to Coutinho in the situation) but yeah, he's not good enough long term.

interesting player. for some reason i began thinking of when we had alexis sanchez out there who couldn't get past a man and put in a cross to save his life.

that's actually quite reassuring

i have a feellng he wants too badly to be a genius with this weird formation. defensively it's clearly very inefficient, inflexible and just overall confusing. offensively our major issue is getting it out from the back and starting an attack momentum. playing it out from the back must be a...

He should go then. He looked great the other night but tbh our general lack of incisive threat provided a very flattering light to come on in. In the end, he put in some good crosses and some bad ones, that was it. There's still no guarantee that regular playing time will make him a great...

The workrate is bigger than a pressure issue. He clearly walks way too much when in the team is in possession too. I remember having a breaking point with him in the Clasico in 19/20. There was a particular situation where he had stayed up front not bothering to defend RM's attack. Then we...

he should start re-schooling himself as a 10 or hang up his boots. a winger that slow simply doesn't make sense. speed isn't just an issue when it's used. anyone who's played football knows that it functions as an essential bargaining piece when taking on a defender. if you're faster than...

Send him back and go snatch up 16-yo future Ballon d'Or winner Roony Bardghji.
