Who's vice? I'm guessing Rodri replaced Sterling and Walker replaced Ferna.
So probably Silky, Dias, Kev, Walker, Rodri? I was hoping Kev would be 2nd Captain and leapfrog Dias.

Thanks but it was already sorted :-)@asahartford1 and @FantasyIreland
If, for some unknown reason, you can't put each other on ignore, please take your discussion/disagreement/argument/spat to pms.
And no, I'm not bothered who started it. Thank you.

Think its Kev,but i would rather it be Dias as he encompasses everything in a leader.Who's vice? I'm guessing Rodri replaced Sterling and Walker replaced Ferna.

The order was Gundogan, De Bruyne, Walker, Dias, Rodri.Who's vice? I'm guessing Rodri replaced Sterling and Walker replaced Ferna.

That's perfect then. I appreciate showing the elders that respect.The order was Gundogan, De Bruyne, Walker, Dias, Rodri.
I can take Gundo being Captain over Kev. But everyone else just stinks of a little disrespect.
He is the best player and longest serving current player. Being Captain is almost a right at that point. But Gundogan is such a special character that I can stomach him being Captain ahead of Kev.
But no one else seems right in my view.

Was very dangerous in the final third but played so high-up that we really struggled to move the ball through midfield at times

Gundogan is MOTM, simple as that. He is doing everything and positionally and dynamically more dangerous than Haaland, but it's also because he exploits spaces that should be for Haaland. The problem with him is that he can't be two person in same place.
That's why we have inverted fullbacks. Pep seems to be backing his goal scoring instincts and I can't blame him, he can score goals and provide when pushed higher, it's worth making the fullbacks play deep and inside to make up for that.Was very dangerous in the final third but played so high-up that we really struggled to move the ball through midfield at times
We probably might switch things up with wide fullbacks every now and then too, but the inverted fullbacks seems to be the goto approach.

I get that, and against passive teams it’s clearly a sound strategy. But today it was far too easy for Newcastle to press Walker in particular and we struggled with controlling the midfield as a resultThat's why we have inverted fullbacks.
