Agree on Bruno's highs being better than Dalot but the bolded is a very generous summary. When Bruno is poor, he is losing possession on the edge of our area box with cute/lofted flicks and chips, constantly launching long through balls to no one and first time passes into crowded spaces where...

Had a poor stream so wasn't able to watch the match that clearly but I don't remember him being individually poor? Definitely not as sharp but considering the opposition and their approach to possession and pressing, I thought it was as good as you'd hope for someone out that long...

Happy for his goal but he needs to work on his celebrations man :drool:

I totally understand about the different ratings. I'm sure that's probably similar for others but with transparency, you could see everyone's patterns and criteria, which would make it interesting to discuss. As for your comments on AWB, I'm a bit confused. Are you rating AWB as if he's an...

Cheers. Yes it would really interesting and transparent if we could see each other's rating. It would help massively with a lot of the discourse and discussion as it give contexts to everyone's comments. I would probably join in too. I just asked the question here...

Not sure if this is the right place and excuse my poor search skills as I can't find anything in the search but has there ever been a possibility of making everyone's player rating transparent to all?

Can you actually see this? I've never used the rating thing on this forum in all my time so I'm pretty clueless on this. Not a single vote for any player. Have you been? Would be interesting to see yours for all our players this season.

I mean I think we're splitting hairs here now. We didn't spend £50m+ and a significant chunk of our budget on Mount early in the summer to play as a rotation squad member or second fiddle to Casemiro or Bruno i.e he was always going to start with them and he did. We were linked with other...

As mentioned already it's likely because ETH and Ole have not cared about holding onto possession and controlling games through passing. ETH has literally said about wanting us to to be the best transition team, says we can't play like Ajax and has regularly rebuked criticism like our poor...

You can't win anything with kids. ;)

Guys, look below at their post on Monday :smirk: Some people have made up their mind and just want to continue with their narrative regardless of what happens on the pitch. Quite remarkable really.

If you want a direct quote or something to that ilk then I don't have the receipts and my memory is pretty hazy but I'm sure I've based it upon the following: Things ETH has said (whether that was during the summer or this current season), media articles suggesting internal discussions about...

Don't disagree but as was inferred, ETH had been planning that since last summer and Mount was indeed bought to replace Fred. It's quite common knowledge.

Have you not been watching our games this season? ETH has wanted to play two pressing 8s/10s every game!

Such a shame with the injuries. Hopefully he's fit for the Cup Final and leaves on high note.
