Just a few months back people talked up Royal like he was a world class talent. He has been so limited from the start.. Barcelona made a great sale there…
It was pretty evident from early on that Emerson doesnt have enough quality in his distribution. Struggle to beat a man, and his distribution is awful. People who has read this thread saw him being applauded for energy vs. Very few criticised his lack of quality except undersigned that got...
Yes watched him and I think Son was MoM or Lloris. I still dont see Emerson contribute anything offensively. He lacks end product. I like his energy, but we need more then energy and work rate. He is a PEH version of a wing back. Has the energy but lack quality and skills.
Fully agree.. Reggie is a much better player then Royal, atleast Reggie offer something going forward and has a end product. Royal is neither and is very mediocre. Nevertheless, probably both need an upgrade in this system as neither are top 4 material.
We played against an average Dutch side that would struggle to stay in the PL. Hardly impressive what we showed tonight, and its not down to Conte. It is more down to the average dross he has to deal with and their attitude. Interesting to see how pundits reviewed our performance vs this forum...
Cant be compared. Barca were fighting to keep Messi, and hardly did for Royal.. Also if you see what Barca has up and coming then you see thats where they will spend money on keeping Gavi, Pedri, Fat.. they have some massive players coming up..that are younger and world beaters compared to...
I definitely see that the media didnt rate Emerson Royal very high either so I am not the only one. I demand more then energy from a player. Royal just shows over and over that he has no end product (atleast he hasn’t showed it, but hopefully Conte can unlock it). I for sure understand Barca was...
Based on tonight’s performance and the season so far and how Conte wants to set-up I would say we need:
2 new CB’s - Supporting Romero, although I have some hope Conte can coach Davinson Sanchez
Righ Wing Back - Neither Royal or Doherty are good enough. No end product, and Royal isn’t even very...
Agree with that. World class coach with a bunch or average players. He has a big job ahead, and I believe some are overrating the performance a bit tonight. The energy was there, but it showed again that our players arent good enough and that we have too many average players.
10 to Emerson Royal for hard work? I hope we demand more then that. Some really high ratings there. Dier and Reggie surely not an 8 either. Neither was Kane, or Winks or NDombel. Ndomebele has one key pass and gets an 8? We surely dont demand much against an average Dutch side.
Lloris man of the match. Son was also good during his spell.
Royal vastly overrated by people here. He had energy yes, but no end product and poor on the second goal. Reggie was better but he was also not outstanding. Our defensive unit and wing backs far from impressive, and all of them poor...
It seems people have seen something I didn’t see to me I didn’t see much special tonight. He had energy yes, but he showed again in my mind that he has no end product whatsoever. Poor in crossing, and not particularly good going forward considering he is a right wing back. In my mind Reggie was...
He could have become a legend. He was very very talented.
Im not feeling sorry for him though. If i remember right he earns about 2 million a year at the mutual fund.
