The defence & midfield will have to do pretty comprehensive pressing...Trouble is, a lot of our hardworking, tough tackling midfielders are out :( Well, anyway, let's see
The issue is the slow DM, who needs to help the fullbacks. That is a very dangerous situation. Christensen, Oriol and Roberto are not fit for that job.
Barely F de Jong and probably only Cubarsi can do it but has no experience.

I don't understand why we are so positive.
Xavi is a little better strategist if he hasn't a bad day starting all the bums.
Except the wingers we do have a better team.
But that Except is a big one, since one of him is a big goal scoring machine too, trying to get money from Perez.

Containing him will be a challenge

Not the greatest technique (or even a very good one), but his directness, speed, football IQ and clutch finishing are exactly what decided big KO games.

He’s like a more clutch, less technically gifted Thierry Henry

Lol what? Have you seen some of the finishes, dribbles, tricks and passes he pulls off? He has excellent technique but his style of play is slightly ugly on the eye similar to Prime Suarez. His game isn't about that refined elegance. It's built around his explosive pace. His physique is a bit unusual(short torso, long legs) which makes his running style look awkward.


Henry looked good technically because his physique/frame was more balanced and his playing/running style was a bit more elegant and simple. He also had that charisma and cockiness which made watching him even more exciting.


Mbappe doesn't take Free Kicks and his penalties don't look memorable.


Mbappe's dribbling is centred around his stop-start style with sudden pauses while Henry went for continuous motion gliding across the turf which has a more effortless look to it. Again, you know which one looks easier on the eye.......

Well Mbappe is beat, but I really want to see him in La Liga in tight space against bunker teams.

He will probably be much better in CL where RM will play more defensive against better teams.
