And Biss never compliments well with Hojbjerg. So I don't think Hojbjerg coming on is the answer. I wish Donley can just come on and play the Maddison role.The lack of attacking the last 10 minutes came from Deki having to come deep to receive the ball because Bissouma is not able to take anything on the half turn today. Suddenly there's a huge gap between our back line and attackers and we have no options. Our entire attacking system is built on that number 6 being confident and decisive on the ball. Need the best of Yves this half or we're losing by 5
Hojbjerg is a solid top half PL player but I agree this system really exposes his achilles heel which is tight spaces and shimmying away from pressure.There's a case for that imo over him playing in midfield, but wherever he'd come on including CM he's still a square peg with how Ange wants us to play.
I'm actually a fan of PEH btw and in Italy or for someone like Athletico I think he'd be a very good player again.
This probably isn’t the game for them but I do agree surely we have a few youth players who deserve a chance given our injuries as we know what some of these senior pros level is at and we know the ones who aren’t good enough, I’d be interested if any of the youth set-up would be much worse but for defenders it’s high risk throwing them in in certain games, less pressure on a midfielder or striker.If you consider the injury crisis we have it’s a bit disappointing that we don’t feel there are any youth worthy of a chance. Despite the endless promises i think our academy has been underwhelming given the supposed investment in it.
I think he posts in this match day threadRoy Keane recently admitted he had a soft spot for Spurs. Probably why he's always so harsh on us lol.
Honestly, Man United are beyond shit and he hates it, hes a grumpy old prick who just hates life.He hates southerners.
G'day AngeI think we have to bring Hojbjerg on, put Kulu back out wide and have a three man midfield with Hojbjerg, Bissouma and Lo Celso rather than two man midfield.
Yep, and I hope people don’t fall for this bullshit. Could you imagine us the last few years if we’d faced this many injuries? We’d have stood no chance.Neville seems to be willing spurs to fail this season. He’s so negative about us. No mention of the injuries as mitigation.
If Son can play up front for us in this system then so can Johnson. He's got a knack for finding space.Johnson has to stay on. He can go up top should Son need to come off.
Gil has to be the one to come off.
…If it’s me, assuming Sonny can carry on I’d be taking Gil off, put PEH on, move Kulu RW and Johnson to LW.
Ange said Richy can only do 5-10 mins and not sure this is the game for Veliz but if Sonny is crocked then it might well be our only choice.
You're talking about it, mission accomplished
