Multiple cameo appearances, in and around international breaks. No starts and seemingly not even in contention to start. Something isn’t right.How long does it take a player to get fit?
He needs to be starting now even if it means we add more defensive players to compensate.
Barca when Messi was walking about: lost 3:0 at Roma, 4:0 at Liverpool and 8:2 from Bayern.Give him the Messi role. Let him walk about but get him the ball in dangerous areas.
Did more in 10 minutes than anybody else on that pitch today. All by essentially being stationed at right wing.
I'm not sure that's true. He unlocked their defence at least twice with passes no one else in our midfield would even think about never mind see and execute. On another day Haaland probably puts his one away.I hope I'm wrong but I don't think Kevin is the answer anymore..
Usually when he's been injured and comes back, he is absolutely terrible till he's terrific but he's got 1 thing that very few players in the league do.. his shots and passes are lightning quick and impossible to block.
Today he was blocked constantly.. was almost like Jack Grealish's crossing always finding thighs and shins.
I'd love to be wrong but it seems he's lost that lightning quickness that he had.. and his whole game was built around that. :(
