Its nice to see Havertz starting to get comfortable here. Helping link the play, creates space for those around him, doesnt shy away from the physical battles and he has finally started to shoot. Things are pointing in the right direction for him. Problem is of course that he cost 65 million and was brought in to replace a key member and so far he hasnt looked like a 65 mill player.
But for me, after he started to play as RCM vs Sheffield he has looked good and Saka has had a lot more room to work with. Its gonna be fun to watch Havertz development, Arteta didnt make us spend 65 mill on him for no reason, especially when other cheaper alternatives were on the market.
That turn and shot. Man I wanted that to crush the side net. Good turn and good hit. Hopefully we see him bury some more of those.‘Kai did have some tidy exchanges on the right. He’s normally not there, but I counted 3 slick movements between him, Saka and Benny to maintain possession/ get us out of trouble
Youssouf Fofana is the most realistic complimentary piece we can sign in January. Can’t be too expensive in January either with 6 months left on his contract, I need Edu to be tampering heavily!
If we weren’t limited by FFP, we’d for sure trigger Zubimendi‘s release clause (again)
Probably an extremely mild take but I don’t think any team in the Prem would be doing as well as we are with our injury problems. All it took was one suspension for City to lose two on the bounce in the League.
One suspension and injury of two of their best players should be added.
De Bruyne and Ake are instrumental as well to City’s success, they are only more easily replaced.
Really like trossards pressing yesterday, he was really up for it and worked really hard for it. There were barely any moments where sevillas keeper could just pass it short, because trossard kept running at him
Good luck United dealing with the Galatasaray atmosphere
“Eras come to an end”
Every single match, Ten Hag’s quote on eras coming to an end gets funnier and funnier
We really need to work on our set pieces, they keep citing stats about how good our corners are but I feel like we are reverting to hitting the first man every time, and with how many corners Martinelli farms that’s such a waste
We still lack a player with top delivery. Vieira is taking longer in Arteta’s slow cooker than expected.
First player to fail the eye and sofascore test but still receive praise
before posting anything, i implore you to think: will i also do this when the same thing happens to any other player? if the answer is no, can’t blame people for thinking it’s a personal agenda.
Standard Havertz performance which people will claim was great/good/underrated somehow.
If you aren’t judging players by Google ratings, you aren’t a serious watcher of the game.
Not a new observation but Kiwior is insanely good looking. Thought I was looking at Chico Lachowski when he was waiting to be subbed on.
You don’t get to be with the twerking champion of the world of you aren’t good looking
He wasn’t looking like this when he first signed. Looked like an awkward teenager.
Europa league nights are a different breed, Liverpool.
Dunno of its just me but I’d actually cringe if a prolific member of our squad took to social media to defend getting beat 4-1 at home in a London Derby by citing a good first 15 minutes.
Rival fans calling us whingers and crybabys about officiating have fast found out that it’s not something you can laugh off because it’s happening to a team you don’t like.
It will continue to happen and could be anyone on any given game week
what unjust decision or non decision are you referring to?
Wilo was an absolute G last night. He’s such a menace to attackers. Not saying it was the perfect performance but to me it was an exhibition of some of the fundamentals of how we want to play. Cough up the ball, force them to clear it long to Big Wilo who just says ‘nah bro, not today’. Then we build again. 0 shots by them.until the 96th minute. They were putrid, don’t get me wrong, but was a fun performance.
We all know we haven’t been our sparkling best so far. But right now I’m just thinking how incredible it is to go from having a team with Sok, Torreira, Pepe and Willian to Saliba, Rice, Saka and Marti, all of whom are in the conversation for best in their position, in the league at least.
Not the best opponent for him, but last night is why uf ypu forced me to pick one of our players to win a balon d’or, it would be Marti. He’s electric. If he finds that le cut inside, or better still, actually moves to cf and finds consistent finishing, it’s over.
