gbandit Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Yeah, maybe he was trying too hard after the penalty miss, nothing seemed to quite work in an attacking sense and his touch and shielding wasn’t as sublime as always, who the fuck cares. He’s world class and we’re class Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAK Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Looked like he was going for a wild from behind tackle towards the end but looked like he pulled out of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 His worst game with the ball today IMO but still got about and put a hell of a shift in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Edgar Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 I can understand possible reasons. Mental fatigue with a baby at home. I've had 2 and it just destroys you Or maybe one eye on the WC. Either way, he's absolute class and I'm sure he'll be firing in January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Just don't think he's suited to deepest mid in these sorts of games. His best work on the ball today was when he swapped with Longstaff for short periods and started linking cute passes into the final third. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crayola Kid Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 It was one of those games where you notice him more for his defensive actions, Man U away was similar. Both were against a very strong midfield, and today Chelsea’s mids barely had a touch for over an hour. You can’t ask for the sparkling attacking stuff as well in a game like this. He was great doing his job today, Kovacic and Jorginho never got going thanks to him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Agree with above, but also illustrative that we don't have a jorginho type who can recycle possession and defensive side, and Bruno is asked to do that when it is not quite his game. He is more than good enough for most premier league opponents but in games like this I think if we sign a new mid it would be someone to do all that dirty work for bruno and let bruno play further forward.

Crayola Kid Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 He’s ridiculously good like. We can either sign a defensive mid to allow him to go forward, or a creator which would let him sit deeper and kill teams off. Pretty much Tiote and Cabaye in one player, he could play either role very well in this team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyc35i Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 He was still top level today. He did miss a few passes that he’d usually make and didn’t get those fouls he gets by protecting the ball, but still made a big contribution. That two footed lunge at the end of the game was ludicrous though and he’s lucky he didn’t hurt the Chelsea guy baldy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Thought he was fine but for a noticeably misplaced/overhit key pass or two. Grafted well and was part of a central midfield that won the individual battle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
