He needs to learn that Premiership refs are random as fuck when playing for a blatant foul.


That should have been a foul every time though and he has no other options. He’s clearly an intelligent player.

 

That little flick when he came on was very nice. 
 

He does run a little long and heavy, which I think is where the ‘not athletic’ stuff comes from. But I don’t think it’s going to matter much in his case.

Fairly hilarious that we've signed this guy and then our 3 CMs have all played fucking immense since then :lol:


 

almost like they needed a kick up the ass. Shelvey In particular. Don’t think it’s a coincidence Shelvey’s best form for us came when he had Merino to contend with.


Fitness levels probably played a part both in terms of improving their own performance but also meaning they have more options to make passes.

 

Willock just suits being in a three.

Even though we are impatient to see him start you can see the intelligence behind making him get used to the pace of the game firsr, he doesn't have as much time on the ball as he did in France so its about getting him acclimatised. Once he starts he'll stay imo

Bournemouth fans said he likes to take his time when bedding in new signings.

Mad position to be in, but if Howe sees Bruno and Willock as being the two going for that role, you can't really make a case for Bruno at the moment. :lol: Crazy


I really hope he doesn’t see it like that. Bruno doesn’t score goals and whilst it looks like he is great at carrying it forward and then playing passes and through balls. He is never going to do what Willock does on the ball. 
 

I think he played in a role similar to Shelvey’s last season and then more of an 8 this season? That was what one of the stat articles seemed to suggest, anyway.
