Can't wait for Axel in action

He has played three or four passes this game nobody else on the field could play. He is very good at kicking the ball.

He also missed from two yards. He doesn't put enough power on half the passes he makes. It was the same last game. Fine dribbler and opens up a lot of space of course. Could be better at actually connecting with the ball though.

Axel is a great first name

Reminds me of Axel Foley

Tuanzebe

The White Pele · Jan 29, 2017

Could be for BFS I reckon (Tuanzebe). Move TFM to midfield

Wigan fans wants to tell us they support their local team.

A lot of those same people actively shout for Saints RL, such is their hatred for their local rugby team.

Annihilate Now! · Jan 29, 2017

Don't you love how Smalling has to position himself correctly behind the ball before he passes it? He can't just simply knock it somewhere... He has to move his whole body so it's facing the way he wants to pass.

This is the sort of thing I am concentrating on today.

Is it Axel or Axle?

Well looks like Wigan have stopped running.

TFM has gone off injured. Is going off injured.

Irrational. · Jan 29, 2017

Tuanzebe on for TFM.

AltiUn · Jan 29, 2017

This has turned into a very professional performance from us.

Mirror. Signal. Mirror. Manoeuvre.

Yeah it is really strange how he can't just play the ball.

Jazz · Jan 29, 2017

Well done TFM

That really was a sitter, his finishing is very erratic. I like his passing style, he does miss a few too to be fair, but he also has those special passes in his locker which make it worth while. .

JinnerJamie · Jan 29, 2017

BFS has been superb

I mean you might not be wrong there but look at the context.

Apart from Miki, the only one player, who realistically can give him the ball or offer any movement of any quality. Mata and Rooney are static players, who like to pass (the responsibility) onto someone else before trying to position themselves to attack. Then you have two deep midfielders in Fellani and Schweini, who have barely played any games individually or together..

Not exactly the best set up to succeed.

Forget the set up then and simply consider that most of his games for ManUtd, Monaco and France have mostly been on the left witv many good performances.

Raoul · Jan 29, 2017

Schweini is bossing it today

Hed Zitin · Jan 29, 2017

I think Schweiny has done well today.

It is unlike the scousers or Spurs who has to battle to come back.

Trophy Room · Jan 29, 2017

Schweini has really grown into this game. Good on him

criticalanalysis · Jan 29, 2017

Miki playing well. All round performance in midfield...needs a goal or assist to really cap it off.

I've noticed this too, it's like he has to calm himself down and position himself where he wants to pass before he can actually pass it off. You really don't have that much time to dwell on things in todays game.

I'm watching Schweinsteiger myself.

kouroux · Jan 29, 2017

@JPRouve : Ca va le faire pour le hand

Red Stone · Jan 29, 2017

Tuanzebe looks delighted for his debut.

Irrational. · Jan 29, 2017

Does Warnock have some reputation of being this tough tackling character?

Keown's mentioned it two or three times now, as has the commentator.

DomesticTadpole · Jan 29, 2017

Herrera for Fellaini.

One Night Only · Jan 29, 2017

Herrera yellow card coming up.

He's absolute class. Bet he was starting chants off as well.

He was ill by all accounts, so I have trouble believing he was singing "Woke up this morning, feeling fine …" :lol:

Jazz · Jan 29, 2017

Well done Fellers

Sid234 · Jan 29, 2017

This should please everyone.. Fellaini going off

OutOfTowner · Jan 29, 2017

That's a great change bringing on Herrera for Fellaini. Gives Bastian an outlet.

That said, Fellaini did quite well today so good for him.

Irrational. · Jan 29, 2017

Herrera on for Fellaini.

DomesticTadpole · Jan 29, 2017

Will Grigg has been doused.

Bobcat · Jan 29, 2017

What the feck are Wigan doing? Two down and still they crowd their own box

Jazz · Jan 29, 2017

Where's fellaini going? Is he injured?

Rado_N · Jan 29, 2017

Is Tunnicliffe gonna try and break everyone again?

Edit: wrong person!

Much easier for us to save our energy that way for the next game, just the sort of match we wanted.

Oh don't get me wrong, he can pull off a fantastic pass, but they're generally slower floatier passes from what I've seen. He doesn't seem to put his foot through the ball much and sometimes I think he should. He has a sloppy back pass in him too which prompted my post.

Fellaini injured??
