ponsaelius Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Eddie definitely does like to have an English core to his teams. I don't have an issue with it tbh. I think there's value in squad cohesion in retaining a strong core of domestic and local players at this stage of our development, and the depth of English talent is pretty decent at the moment to not make it a hindrance. We generally seem to be limiting the foreign signings to being big marquee players (Bruno, Isak, Botman, Tonali). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never thought of it before, but Isak's the only black player Eddie's bought, right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groundhog63 Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Maybe that's why Willock was asking Isak to throw some white shade. Keep in with Eddie Farage ?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnes is someone who you can’t show a specific way because he isn’t 1 footed, and his assists looked pretty damn good when he had a settled CF playing regularly. We will have Isak and Wilson. Dumbing down his game is a bit classic NO as you can get. Elite sides exploit space through passing and movement. Will be interesting to see him play properly as from what I’ve seen of him he looks one footed. Watching his highlights his right is his foot and he can vary what he does with it when shooting whereas on his left he just seems to strike it as hard as he can. As I’ve said before not as obvious as Miggy is but he clearly has a far stronger side from what I’ve seen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 I imagine Schar passes over the top behind, pass and move dribbles into space to get a layoff to shoot, cut backs from Tonali, Trippier or Miggy and on the assist side his line breaking run in behind and low driven crosses to Isak and Wilson.
