adamjk007 Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 I've not seen Martinelli so quiet in a game, Trippier done really well not to dive in at any point. Great defensive performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuv Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 I thought he was poor against Leeds (crossing and set piece in particular) but yesterday he was phenomenal. You could see he was the calm we needed in our back four. He's been the catalyst to make our back four the best we've ever had. Fun fact: Fewest League goals conceded in a season – 33 in 34 matches, First Division, 1904–05. (We won the league that year). I think we could easily be conceding under 25 for the whole league campaign of 38 games which is just ridiculous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great defensive performance. Rarely see Trippier get done now, him and Almiron tracking back have the right flank locked down tight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Martinelli didn't attempt to beat him on the outside once from memory, He kept running into crowded men like that was going to help them. Saka's a much more intelligent footballer. Cutting in, going the long way, slowing down then speeding up etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiLvOR Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 the kids booting off in the background. I really hope Trippier stays with us after his playing career is done. Seems like he'd be an amazing coach, someone who can really help us develop over the next decade and more, with his work ethic, professionalism, and hopefully, winning mentality.

Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Was noticeable that he was telling Bruno to keep his head in the first half against Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Noticed he banished Longstaff from Arsenals box during one of our first corners to pick up an Arsenal player lurking on the outside for the counter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) Interesting in that podcast, he confirms his fee was £12m. I think there was some talk early on that it was much higher. Incredible value for money when you look at some other buys in that position, AWB etc. Edited January 5, 2023 by Minhosa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Initial fee of 12m with add-on of 12m if we avoided relegation is what was reported at the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) Just watching the full podcast, as missed it first time round. He speaks well, very open. Class. EDIT: HIm just talking about the influence of Simeone, and 'game management', 'tactical fouls', 'killing time'.

wormy Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Maybe it's just because I can't afford it but I fail to understand how shit as garish as that LV jacket are fashionable. Looks like it could be off a local market stall or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
