Cosiest man on the planet
I think the big anti Beek club are just fans that laugh at the people that say he is too genius a footballer to be effective with this group of players, like we heard with Kagawa.
I think most fans just want to him to play his way into the team on merit and aren't really pro starting him every game because of intangibles which don't manifest themselves.
It should be hard to get into our side, it is getting harder and harder under Ole, we don't owe any players anything except opportunities to prove they should be in the team. Hopefully he proves that in the second halfThese are the tactics I thought we'd deploy last week. Rashy left wing staying high and wide getting in behind TAA with greenwood doing the same on the other side,.with martial in between.
Fully Agree. But He isn't even a ball winner. He would inflict far more damage by playing in the free role
Completely agree, that ball to shaw was great.
Spot on about the mazy runs maybe that’s why he doesn’t fit in, we have too many dribblers, we should be using him as a wall because he’s class.Need an early goal so Bruno can keep his feet up. Donny has been okay, but would love him to create a goal. Looking forwards to this next 45 minutesSurely this is the best we've played against pool since LVG? Really encouraging stuff imo. Not perfect by any means, but we're not scared and going right at them.
Disappointed that Ian doesn’t have the scooter with him from the Christmas advert
I am. He hasn't been bad at all, we've failed to control the game at the time you posted, because certain players were constantly careless in their own third which had feck all to do with the remit of Cavani, VDB and Rashford.
Clearly the issue with a lack of subjectivity is with you, bizzarly pointing to VDB doing "nothing" when the problem was far from him at the time.
Limited game time but I think he's been FAR more impressive as a #8 than a #10. Every time he's played in the hole he's looked invisible and a passenger. As an 8 he plays like he knows he has to get on the ball more and has no problem doing it.
McTom’s big problem is that he receives the ball square on instead of on the half turn. So he is either able to pass the ball straight back to the defence under pressure, or if he turns then he loses it every other time. I would agree that him and Pogba don’t make a good pair.
Why not? They're all good pundits. Somewhere along the line it became cool to hate on them for no reason.The commentary isn't as good as the likes of Sky/BT for the most part, but having no adds is fantastic.Wasn’t working for VDB on the right. Once he moved centrally he’s done much better.
I agree for what its worth
Make that two
The goal came after our corner and Maguire was a bit late back, which is why Lindelof took his position. They do that quite often.
Figured it wasn't that high. No ref is that bad. Next one has to be a yellowAre Wright’s gloves heated? Looks like there’s an LED on them.
Shearer isn’t tbh. Ian Wright isn’t great either but he’s funny, and works well with whoever they have on.Pretty sure Bruno brings more to the team as a coach than Michael Carrick.Ole and Bruno in convo
I think compared to the unmitigated feck-up that is Jermaine Jenas, they could have literally anyone doing the half-time analysis and they'd look good by comparison
This role, if he wants it, allows him to hit his highest level for me, can be a huge influence in all facets of the game while still having the opportunity to attack. You see, when he is playing like this, while all of his managers post Juve have wanted to use him deeper.
Same. Love his work.
I like my pundits to have a top level playing career. Not be some average right back.I want two things. Us winning and that Thiago gets a yellow. Just to see is that possible or not
Was Donny that bad? Or was he that decent so far? Which is it cafe? Another Thiago foul. How many is that now?
How could you possibly know that? Do you have a live feed of what's being said on the pitch? For all you know, Carrick could be the brains behind everything and Fernandes might just be asking Ole if he can go for a few pints after the game.
Complete bollocks.Still no yellow for ThiagoThiago foul counter : 8
What has he done aside from a few flicks?
Sorry Michael.Who cares what you dress like when beating out the cold
I remember seeing a story a year or so back about how he's being lined up to be the new Lineker when he's moved on.
Baffling.
Fairly average premier league career, utterly anondyne character.
Fairly tedious as a pundit, and the last pick for a co-commentator surely?!Mane and Shaqiri warming upSeriously? By Widjaldums reaction i thought he ate an elbow- Status
