26 | Savinho - 2024/25

[WallyA]

If pep continues to play Grealish on LM then it might be something to see what will hapeen if Savio LW + Grealish LM. Their attributions should work out together on paper. Especially against teams a little bit open in back. given how many games we have and Doku's injury history we will have opportunities to try these out.

I agree having opposite footed players is nice and I am usually a proponent of this...

But Id rather keep players on theit stronger side regardless.

In an ideal world he'd have been eased in like all new players. We've had to use him more than Pep probably wanted to initially. Now we have players back the pressure can be taken off him and he can settle into the side. He's a talented player and very young so he's going to be inconsistent but the signs are positive - just needs that first goal.

He does, because instead of passing to haaland he’ll take a shot on. He can’t hit a barn door atm but hopefully it’ll come. Reminds me of a young Forest Whittiker.

Good that Echeverri is a pure 10 and has nothing to do with the wings. It actually adds more benefit to put Grealish and Foden on the wings.

Bobb's best position is also as a ten, but he plays wide too. I think that will be true of Echeverri, just as it is Phil. What is does give are options.

I imagine that Bobb, Doku, Echeverri, and Savinho will play right across the front line, at least I hope so.

He's not even half the player Bobb is, unfortunately.

I agree Bobb is special. But I don't know about not being half the player.

Here is my defense of him before the crowd piles in.

We barely played to his side.

Yes of course he needs to do better, but we were so completely left side dominant, that he hardly had a chance to take his man on 1v1.

Little worm, 3/10 performance again

This is it. Bernardo and Walker are a zero offensively, so we just play wherever KDB is near.

He really didn't do much wrong today.

True.

Gvardiol better than Walker.
KdB better than Bernie.

That right side is just dead in terms of supporting the winger.

 

[OrigamiNinja]

Not good.
