Champions League 2023/2024: Group F (Newcastle, Milan, Dortmund, PSG)
Smal replied to Marko NUFC's topic in Football
we need them both to go as far as possible tbf if we want 5 CL spots -
Be good to rest Gordon and Miggy at some point as they’re the two who look most dead on their feet to me. We have absolutely nobody to rotate them with though.

Zirkzee from Bologna looks fun. 6ft4, 22 year old, joined them from Bayern summer before last for €8.5m. Scored 8 in 17 this season.

this is diabolical

28(!) progressive passes yesterday . Not sure I've ever seen that many in one game tbh. For context the most he's managed in a game this season so far was 11 and he's averaging around 8 per 90. Bumps him up in the standings a bit and ahead of Rodri

Kind of agree with Jagten to a large extent. His off the ball movement and pressing is very good and his finishing seems to have come on a lot but he needs to improve with the ball and especially his 1v1 ability. He does still struggle to beat a man in the final third. Bottom 10% in the league this season for successful take-on % is pretty poor and an area he needs to improve on massively. It's fine to admit this.
-
he looked like he was really keen to try and do something positive when he was on the pitch which says good things about his attitude. Few nice passes as well.
-
his movement and pressing are his two biggest strengths imo. He’s been poor with the ball recently though.
-
he has time to recover some of his pace though. Anyone would be slower after not being able to do any sprinting or training for over a year.
-
more than anything he just deserves it imo. Especially after losing a year of his career. His performances under Howe have usually meant we’ve not missed Trippier which is a pretty big compliment.
-
very nice to have Sven back in and with a couple of line breakers straight off. What a player, man.
-
I guess the next step is trying to find more ways to get him involved in our play. His quality is there for all to see. Probably a bit too good to play that Longstaff b2b role?

Bruno is about 3000 levels above these, like

Miggy really needs resting
-
Good pass from Longy
-
We are desperate for a left footed player on the left.
-
Think Miggy is fucked and his quality is suffering for it
-
Really think Hall’s technical qualities would help here. They’re not attacking us down that flank anyway.
-
need more in the box for these crosses
-
2 of our 3 sub windows used as well.
