Smal Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 (edited) The Kovacic comparisons prior to us signing him ring somewhat true to me so far. Hopefully he's more effective in the final third, mind. Maybe someone like Tielemans too. Edited April 7, 2022 by Smal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 I think he’s fantastic personally. Can’t wait until he fully adapts and actually has players who know how to use space. He will really benefit from the return of trippier and Wilson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe has way more physicality and is a better passer of a ball imo Was talking about Bruno. Kovacic is a very good (this season at least) passes and progressor of the ball.

Mazzy Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 No point risking Willock when Bruno can come in for him. Last thing we want is to be missing Willock for the next few weeks because he played with an injury. Bruno and Joelinton are going to have a big task in the middle tonight, alot of pressing is going to be needed to help nullify Mouthino and Neves. Wouldn't even be surprised to see a change of formation and have Shelvey and Bruno as a double pivot to help keep possession in the midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 I'd like to see a three of Willock, Big Joe and Bruno. Bruno and Shelvey seem to be standing on each others toes when they play together, they're both trying to operate in the same space. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
