BullyDogs Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Think that hes struggling with the intensity and the pace difference between Serie A and the Premier league. So much more time on the ball to think and pick a pass in Italy he doesnt seem sharp enough in the midfield at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont see him as a scapegoat as such i just think he needs nurtured into the side. A creative midfielder is what we are seriously lacking. Breaking teams down who sit deep is a constant issue Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCormick Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 His touch is surprisingly poor a lot of the time. You can see he’s still getting used to the fact that he won’t have a lot of time on the ball in this league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jilted Generator Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Patience with Sandro is the key here, he will come good. Agree though today he has not offered much at all. Likewise with Bruno but he’s walking a tightrope on a yellow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not even being the thread police, the only thing that happens when posting in an individual players thread mid game to criticise is that players become scapegoats.

Begbie Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I thought Tonali was more of a deep lying midfield playmaker, but for us he is playing offensive left midfielder. When we signed him I thought it was to push Bruno up more advanced or rest Bruno some games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but difficult to tell if that is the position or the far superior interchange with Trippier and Almiron compared to Burn and Anderson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amir_9 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Poor game, had a great game against PSG but he's had a bang average game here Keeps passing back, positions himself for a pass somewhere where the pressure won't be off the team and then another Brighton-esque style of close down there.

I'm not writing him off by any means but at times he's looked absolutely hopeless. Positionally poor, tackling not great and seems like he wants absolutely no time on the ball. Gets rid of it as soon as he touches it. Hoping its a confidence issue and he comes good but he's just not at the level required. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it though? I'm not doubting his ability as a footballer, which I think has shone through in fits and starts, but that's twice this season now he's half-heartedly closed down a shot from the edge of the area which we've then conceded a goal from. EDIT: Imagine if it was Shelvey in the same position. Everyone would rightly be going wild about it. Edited October 8, 2023 by Pilko Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
