Now that's precision passing......20250115_221436.thumb.jpg.1d4418b0be49482882e15ae2d57c64ac.jpg

 

It's an outrageous pass.

 

He didn't have much time to see it and then play it through.

 

There was a lot of talk of in the match thread about it being bad defending from Wolves and such an easy goal.

 

I thought it was absolutely surgical from Bruno.

It was and he is basically our only player capable of playing cute through balls like that. 
 

However, the CB’s are miles apart, all out of line and their new signing. Who unfortunately for him, was superb otherwise. Was about 2 yards deeper, playing him on. 
 

Two things can be true at the same time.

Bruno knew he was going to make that pass, he just runs past the gap and threads the pass, plus the pinged cross to Isak on the left wing. Both things of beauty.

I think that not playing in internationals every few weeks is helping at the moment.

Brazil in a really bad place at the moment and I don't think it does his confidence any good playing in that team and getting pelters off radge Brazil supporters after every disappointing game.

I have to say this guy has to be the most important player at the club.

 

The joy he has playing for the team and how much he celebrates the club on and off the pitch is incredible.

 

It's so contagious and I can't even imagine how this affects the other players, especially as he's the captain and one of the best players.

 

The atmosphere he helps create at the moment is immense.

 

Hoping this influences the likes of Isak going forward.

I feel like pretty much all of us have

said this for about a year now but having a player capable of playing dm so Bruno can effect the game further up the pitch has been huge for us. 

He can find his way through the block. He draws defence and creates space. His passes are sublime. Not a complaint but if he could hit the target more!

I think it's both right? Like leaving the center forward unmarked on the penalty spot is ridiculous, but it's also a great pass to get to him there.

In fairness that downplays Isak's skill for finding space, he was left in similar acres of space by Arsenal's CB pairing, who are generally considered pretty decent. At what point does Isak's movement get the credit, rather than it always being shite defending?

Which time at Arsenal? It was usually great movement from Isak most the night. They didn’t know whether to drop or push. They were shitting themselves all the while. As he always does. He fakes to drop short and then spins behind and vice versa. 
 

His goal was due to Gabriel and Saliba getting caught up with trying to battle our twin towers from the Pardew set piece :lol: Then clever from Isak to pull off onto Odegaard and use that little shove. Which I think he has done a few times with great success. Wolves header 2 seasons ago. West Ham away last season/season before. Whenever it was he got a brace. 

 

For this. Isak himself looked surprised at the space he had. You could have driven a bus through the gap between them and to make it worse. One of their players just sprints out to close someone down and then stops realising he’s vacated an already massive space.
Along with how deep Agbadou was. It was criminal defending. 

 

You can appreciate Isak’s ability to find space and the lovely through ball. Whilst also saying how shite they defended it. 
 

Imagine this place if Cunha did that pass to Strand-Larsen up the other end and we defended it the like that. I mean, Strand-Larsen would miss. But that’s beside the point :lol:

For someone who isn't very fast he sure is everywhere on the pitch. We genuinely have the best midfield in the Prem.

 

 

 

I think he's quick over the first 5-10 yards, he often bursts away from players with the ball. It's just the longer distance recovery runs where he looks pretty slow
