He's good in parts and bad in others. He's very quick, can run in behind, can work hard, can press, and when he wants to (usually in and around the box looking to cross) he can take a man on . In others a lot of the time he won't take his man on and looks scared to do so if he's further away...
He's good and better than he's given credit for but his best position is as an 8 which is where Bentancur and Sarr are best. Lets him do some stuff defensively, be on the front foot winning things back pressing and contributing a bit further forward. However the ones going will likely be...
No he's definitely not a 6, he's played there in the past and it limits him far too much. He's much better with more freedom and in a more attacking role
Don't think it will, it's not like clubs will now want to sell their best and most promising players because others can't spend as much. They set the bar so high because they don't want or need to sell because they usually had years left on their deal - it's pay what we want or gtfo. Now clubs...
For a Hojbjerg replacement/Bissouma competition Mats Wieffer is a good shout. Can play as a shielding defensive midfielder and is comfortable playing more front foot, drive with the ball down the pitch box to box type, decent vision and passing range and he's done well in their CL games. Looks...
If you're going that route Chiesa's contract ends 2025 (next year), plays on the left and Neto can play on the right? Two talented, tricky, creative and forward thinking players who can take their opponents on and create space for others. Maybe sell GLC, move Deki to 10 competition with Madders...
If anything the most impressive part of the window is actually being proactive and trying to get things done quickly and decisively. How many windows have there been, especially in January, faffing around playing games waiting until the last few days to actually pull the trigger. This window...
It's great to see pretty much every player want to stay, fight for their place and help the team even against significant odds. There's great football, a great atmosphere and they're probably having a lot of fun when a year ago it was the complete opposite. Love it, best of luck Bryan
We'll see in future matches, maybe it's a lack of time together or knowing Walker's there but some look an awful lot like players don't rate him so won't put him through
Not sure if anyone's mentioned it but in a couple of those videos he has 2 or sometimes even 3 players either marking him or closing him down quickly when he gets the ball which is a good sign. Being the player the other team has either been told to give as little time on the ball as possible...
Club trained for europe, contract ends 2025 and can also play LB. Perisic is leaving, Sess and Reg's contracts end 2025, KWP back? Good utility option in the squad and like you say I think he has the skillset to do well in that role, it plays more to his strengths than Poch's demands (and even...
He had a few good seasons and Leipzig, after they created massive amounts of chances. His last 3 full seasons he scored 6 league goals in 2020/21, 4 in 21/22 (both chelsea), 9 in 22/23 (Leipzig) and has 2 this season. It was the same thing when he moved to chelsea - all bundesliga watchers...
I don't doubt his work off the ball and his fit for the general style of play for the team. He works hard, can press well, can excel when countering/in transition, has good movement off the ball and is a very good athlete so he fits the style of player mould very well. But on the ball and in...
Definitely did mate, I quoted one in the summer about a month and a half before we signed him which had me convinced

Haven't seen praise like that for this guy yet, it's much more mild. It's all...
