Also like how Tanguy passes the ball like a sniper.
A byproduct of this might be to improve everyone else’s first touch control, because if they don’t, the pass might just kill them.

Most managers would adopt that midfield - I really dont think Jose would ever play that midfield particularly in the league

Well maybe he should start thinking about doing it because they're our best two central midfielders

He's never going to be a player who covers lots of ground, but last season he wasn't even doing the bare minimum of showing for the ball in possession and maintaining the team's shape out of possession.

Now this season we've got a player in Hojbjerg who can do his running for him, and from what Jose is saying the effort and desire are there to make you think he'll sort out the aspects of his game that had prevented him from playing until now. He's only had two weeks of training, once he's up to full match fitness I think he'll be absolutely massive for us.

The passing and movement for his goal, that's the stuff that we paid for, more of all of that.

Made the difference when he replaced Sissoko. Looking forward to more of the same.

Well he did second half bar Bale today, and was quoted last season saying he would play Lo Celso and Ndombele together once he had a DM and now he does

Agreed on both counts and really want that midfield but even today a weaker side and he played aSissoko and PEH

I think he'll soon lose patience with Sissoko - he misplaced a lot of passes today. Once Ndombele is match fit, I genuinely expect to see him work his way as first choice along with Lo Celso.
