Angelino

[manimanc]

one is a sicknote. one is a right back and another is a midfielder. on current form angelino is our best left back.

But he can't defend!

Cancelo has been decent in that position, I would make him first choice there, Mendy should be second choice. If we get good money from Angelino and Zinch then we should let them go, normally I would prefer we sell Mendy and keep Angelino but no one is going to pay anything over 20m for Mendy.

Of the 3 left back`s all are dire at any sort of defending and Angelino is the best passer and crosser of the ball

exactly all our LB are bad at defending. Angelino is best overall on current form.

But he can't defend!

nor can any of our LBs

Walker cannot attack, he's brilliant at other things and we'd have been struggling without him but attacking he is certainly not. I reckon I'm better technically, unfortunately I'm also slower than Gundogan (when he had a dislocated knee).

Speechless.

He was given number of choices here but couldn't really impress. Certain players just aren't suited to certain teams IMO.

He'll be a decent when played in a back 5 or when he plays for a team where defenders don't have to too too much 1-1 defending.

Selling him for 30m and buying a replacement for similar amount who suits us more would be good business IMO. The LBs for Sevilla and Valencia are really highly rated and have always impressed me when I've watched them.

Can you give me specific mistakes he had made ? People keep saying x has made lots of mistakes this year or been rubbish yet we finished second and they don’t give specifics. I also do not think our problem this year has been errors as such players at our level don’t make many mistakes I am struggling to think of specific mistakes this year but that could be me plus pandemic playing with my memory I think our problem this year has been lack of ability to get back when teams attack on the counter and not performing as well in attack so not specific player errors

People say he did not perform against was it United and Liverpool but there not our every day opposition did he loose a header or something hardly major

Speechless.

For some here, the attacking quality of a footballer can only be quantified by the goals he contributes to the team.

4 assists in 40 games, in our team, that's piss poor in an attacking sense for a fullback. He's brilliant defensively but not as an attacking outlet, 17% cross accuracy, no thanks.

Nothing to do with that, it's the time it takes from receiving the ball to playing the next pass. It's like sending a fucking telegraph, take a touch, step back, wait a second or two to decide, then pass. There's no thought process, there's no proactive thinking or pre-planning of a pass, just reactive and that's the sign of a poor quality player. Like I keep saying defensively great but if you look at even Cancelo, even at left back, it's chalk and cheese.

Get good money for him

I like the kid but don’t feel he is the right fit for us
