Sandrotastico Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 A waste of his true talent when he's basically used as a simple recovery robot. File along with Hall and Woltemade (although I'm unconvinced on him) as players not being maximised. On a side note: I love Bruno but at times watching games, it feels like everything creatively must transition through him 100% of the time he's on the field. I often look at Tonali and Ramsey and think they have more to offer but need to work to this strategy of 'Bruno leads'. And when he does'nt play, it all looks kinda crap because that's all we know.

Go on, I’ll ask again. How is Hall not being maximised? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandrotastico Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Must have missed the first time, sorry. Well he's not really a right back for starters. And he's spent a fair bit of time behind a centre halve or Tino to get in the team. I also think he has more to offer higher up the pitch, linking up with the above players, as one of a limited few who enjoys the ball at his feet.

Andy84 Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 (edited) Might be controversial but I’d 100% sell for the right fee. Help fund a rebuild with a starting keeper, striker and another winger. We have Bruno, Miley, Ramsey, Joelinton who can operate in there, plus if we’re moving towards a more of a double pivot system.

How many games did he play at right back? 1? he's played 46 games this season, picked (and excelled) against the likes of Barcelona. It's a total nonsense to suggest he hasn't been maximised. he's 21 years old and has played over 100 games or us. If you don't think he's a left back (i disagree), thats a different argument but this Hall narrative seems to stem from the fact he was taken out of the team for 2 games (after poor performance). It's mental, IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't think he's a left back (i disagree), thats a different argument but this Hall narrative seems to stem from the fact he was taken out of the team for 2 games (after poor performance). It's mental, IMO. My point was more about the ability of players not necessarily being maximised. Not just positionally but by our approach, style of play, set up etc. We have a few players who clearly have more ability than they are allowed to show - consistently not being maximised by our chase and hurry style of play where we'd rather fight to get the ball back than maintain it. Tonali has become a recovery player, chasing back 60 yards to get the ball, more about what he does off the ball than on it. To my point, I feel there is more to come from Hall, Ramsey, Nick, Tonali, should be adopt a more football-first mentality - that was my point. Just an opinion Let's sell them all.

KaKa Posted Wednesday at 11:03 Share Posted Wednesday at 11:03 The claim is that the fee will include passing up remaining money owed for Tonali himself and also Thiaw, along with a then lower amount paid in addition to that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also said they thought buying both Tonali and Hall would be too expensive as it would cost a combined 120-130m. Which makes it obviously horse shite, as that is nowhere near what it would cost.
