  1. Perez Mitrovic Mbemba Thauvin Aarons A pretty promising little group of young players with all of them 22 or younger Hopefully McClaren will make them even better with time.
  2. Not only is he weak but he's slow and undynamic as well which leaves him chasing shadows most of the time. Positionally all over the place. I don't how many times Manu came through the center and i was looking for that orange dot and was fucking nowhere where he should have been so many times.
  3. Reminds me of the small passenger kind of fish that you often see swimming underneath big sharks.
  4. Looked a little bit quicker than i expected or maybe it's because he shields the ball pretty well when he runs with it.
  5. He's the one in our squad who's most unlikely to lose possession imo. Love him.

    There's a reason why Shaw "slipped" when Thauvin got fouled in our half.

    Thauvin is quick and agile, but most importantly he has acceleration. And i really like the drop of a shoulder and a sudden change of speed and direction. He will draw alot of attention and open up space for other players.
  8. I've given Haidara a lot of stick lately, but i must admit that i thought he did well today. Having a footballer in front of you helps, but most of all he didn't look as raw today as he often does, he was a lot more relaxed and could handle the ball without it looking as if it was a hot potato. I still don't think he's the long term solution at LB for us as i think he lacks end product most of all. He's still young though and hopefully he'll improve it with time.
  9. Did anyone notice the moment where Perez took his first touch and at the same time got pushed in his back so that he almost lost the ball? Yet in the same milli second, out of balance he managed to get a second touch with his other foot and made a correctly adressed pass to whoever it was. Looked almost like a two footer pass. Such great technical feet and agility. I think this was somewhere in the middle of the pitch. A few times he got fouled and got fuck all as well.
