To save time for mods/admins maybe stick with "not injured". There's not many threads to alter then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching him over the last month or so in this run of fixtures, the talent is there to see. He has everything needed to be the best full back in the world for the next 10 years or so and I’m so happy we signed him Said this before. I knew he was very good, I was a big fan of him at Soton. But he's actually better than I thought. I thought he would be good enough for proper rotation with Tripps. Start 30% of the matches and come on most games for 20-30 minutes. I didn't think he would be so good he has to start levels though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's a difficult one as Trippier is more than just a world class right back, he's the brain of our entire right flank. It's too much to ask of almost any other player out there, and so when he isn't there, players like Almiron lose 50% and it makes everything look worse.

Pata Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 He’s just simply brilliant, 100% confident he’ll deal with anything defensively and feels like we’ve only seen glimpses of what he can do going forward so far. That one poor control in the halfway line that resulted in the Leao chance shows he’s still a human but I’m not blaming him for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came away from that match tonight with the feeling that Almiron needs some serious competition. He has some good spells but they are invariably countered with groans and 'Oh ffs's!'

He fully deserves our affection, and has improved a lot over the past two years, but just having a right foot more useful than a wooden stump would make him a gigantically more useful player.

midds Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Looking like an exceptional bit of business this one. Genuinely got no idea where his best position is because he just slots in anywhere and looks great and the encouraging thing is that he'll get even better and better in the next 2 or 3 years. He'll be in the England squad before long as the likes of Walker, Trippier and Chilwell will retire/get too old soonish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 That turn of pace is such an asset. The way he burnt past someone in the 2nd half to get into the box was really exciting. Seems to be growing in confidence with his attacking play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
