    Florentino has to be a guaranteed starter from now on. Kokcu isn’t even worth half what we paid for him right now. Rafa and mario should go to saudi arabia. Bench bah. Gouveia starts for being the only one that looked like he gave and shit and tried to change the game.

      Why we aren’t playing Florentino is just insane our midfield looks so weak and disorganized and it doesn’t help that we have aursunus just jumping all over the place. Yes he’s versatile but how can he gain good form when everyday he’s somewhere else on the field.

      Then we have Joao Mario who is trash this year and Rafa omg wtf is he even doing and kokou so far was insanely over rated.

      I’d rather see ————— Musa/Casper —————Guedes Aursuns ——Neves——Di Maria ——————Florentino

    Sociedad looked better than us, however they still have to play against us at San Siro. It’s going to be interesting to see which team will come out on top. Also Salzburg still having two matches at home, I wouldn’t count them out yet.
