Best player on the pitch with Semedo tonight.
Good performance. Clearly best off the ball. His passes are often unnecessarily hard, and still does silly mistakes. Would like to play him solely in games where we are not going to be much possession.
His passing was fine, a cool head too in possesion.
If you study his passing, you might discover that he is not consistent in his passing. Simple passes are often to hard, on the wrong foot etc. I like him when he is pressing though. Knows how to cover space, even though he sometimes makes mistakes regarding when to press and when to fall back.
For some reason he rushes his passes in the league, still needs to get used to the pace of it but he can ping a long ball. Reminds me so much of first season Anderson but also two footed, and a good engine.If you study his passing, you might discover that he is not consistent in his passing.

No player plays a perfect game, Fred was fine tonight some of his passes were excellent.
Played really well tonight indeed. Some of his passes were good, and some simple passes not so good.
Perhaps so, he's far from shit though as 90% of the Caf make out.
In most games we have seen him play so far he has been closer to a league two player than a starter for us.
Barca was pressing us like no other PL team what are you on about? Same against PSG.Maybe he’s more suited to the continental game rather than the Premier League where most teams employ a pressing / harrying tactic and he gets less time and space on the ball.
He is that missing link( as Jose said). You have dmc who destroys and plays simple, you have amc who is playmaker and you must have all round player like Fred. He is not top class in anything but he is good in everything. All round midfielder who is good on the ball but can play defence. I like what i see and as much i love Herrera's spirit, Fred is better on the ball and should play instead of him as 3rd midfielder.
