This reminds me of when ASM has bad game, he gets knackers in his thread singling him out.

Bruno is consistently brilliant, he has a poor game and everyone shits themselves.

Think about all these lads all season working there bollox off, overachieving, playing literally every game if they're fit, taking us to a cup final, then also think about the opposition having their own motivation to do just as well, we were cancelled out by some of our own weak points, lack of chances converted, Arsenal taking their chances and working just as hard as us, and obviously Arsenal's game management or lying on the ground a lot. 

 

Nobody should complain about anyone of these players this season, they've gone above and beyond everyone's expectations.

I think this post sums it all up to be fair.

Excellent post.

Yep he’s been working with only one good foot for weeks now and some people have the cheek to slag him off 

 

I think slagging him off is a bit drastic like [emoji38].

 

He was poor against arsenal but I think most understand he is playing through something just to see us over the line. 

 

He still had a poor game on Sunday but it's down to EH whether or not he carries on playing him or we go with what we've got to secure CL.

 

Unless I missed something from the abortion that is matchday threads [emoji38]

Feel like some people are a bit over protective? :lol:

 

Some people points out he had a poor game against Arsenal and others interpret that as these people saying Bruno is shit. Yes, he is allowed to have a poor game, even two or three, maybe even four. I don't think calling a poor performance poor is slagging him off (unless people are calling out bed wetters in the match thread and not people in this thread).

 

"As phenomenal as he has been, is there a game against the very top teams where he has dominated/played a blinder?" gets interpreted to "Bruno isn't good enough to play against the top teams" which is not what is being said. Bruno has played well against top teams as far as I can remember, but I think the observation is fair that he hasn't dominated a game against top sides?

Easy to forget that, at 25, he probably isn't the finished product, either. He arrived and immediately looked elite so you assume he hasn't got much higher to go, whereas in reality his performances have been at a lower level since late Autumn, even before the injury. His improvement as a player will be represented by him sustaining the ridiculously high levels he was achieving in August/September. 

 

Excited to see him come back fit and refreshed, hopefully without too much of an interrupted pre-season (assuming he does need to go under the knife).

I’m firmly in the he’s better further up the pitch camp. Sure, he can play the deeper role and play it really well but I think we miss his goal threat and some of his key passes near the opposition goal. 
 

Also, if he does lose the ball which he will at times being the type of player he is then it’ll be further up the pitch and not so near to our goal, which isn’t always ideal.

Bruno G in not being perfect shocker.

 

Tactically - Bruno is flexible so we need a team that can be flexible with him. Teams need to worry about him both at 6 & 8 and less teams will be able to solve both problems.

 

He does need to understand when he needs to move the ball quicker.

He’s been shite recently. 

Not going to be harsh on him as he’s been playing injured for months. Anyone should be able to see that. His lack of pace has been exposed further with the ankle problem.

 

However I’m still in that lone camp I’m guessing on here that he’s over-hyped. That’s not to say he’s not very good.
 

Next season alongside you’d imagine one new midfielder is going to be an interesting watch.

 

Just had hoped it would’ve been last January as that was the weakest spot in the squad.

He looks a bit off the pace. Guessing that is from his ankle or a bit of burn out.
 

I feel he is a victim of his own success, mind. By his own high standards, he has certainly been below par of late. But when comparing to some of the others today and some of his positive contributions. If he was shite. Then fuck knows what words we’d need to describe some of the others.  
 

I thought collectively, we were just not at it. Schar and Pope had quality games, I thought. Burn was solid enough. Other than that, it was frustrating or brain dead performances all round.
