I had to see the worst meme I've ever seen so now you do too. Hope we batter them 20-0 now.

How many of their likely XI tomorrow night will be "non-bought" players? Two or three, maybe?

 

[KearsleyBlue]

How come thwy arent playing this weekend?

 

[IronsideKozuch]

Can you name me 10 players comfortably better than Martinelli? As well as Partey?

Saliba definitely is for us look how we've fallen apart since his injury.

why comfortably?;) especially since i was on the fence with them, charges were of consistency. In reality injury factor is important in case of Partey, it decides how often he is of any use at all.

Maybe you re right, in case of Martinelli I would say Vinicius, Rashford (i know he sometimes plays other positions, but as do Martinelli), Grealish, Neymar (harder and harder to put it like this, but hey, lets ask Tite;p), Son, Sterling (without this season), Foden are above.

Furthermore you can argue though, whether he shall be in front of Di Maria (yeah, i know, its late for him, but still few great appearances during WC - where was Martinelli?;p), Federico Chiesa, Luis Diaz or Mane.

Moreover there are players that often plays left wing/left attacker like Sane, Gakpo/Jota, Coman, Dembele etc.

Not so easy to judge imo.

Saka.

World class is far better than top 10 in your position.

you re probably right in the light of common conversations, but on the other hand there are thousands of professional football players so to make the highest category so much narrow may be not so fair. Let us appreciate more people rather than less;D

Saka.

Yeah, I had him down as an Arsenal youth player. But I thought Holding might have been another one. But a quick check on him confitmrmed he was bought from Bolton. Don't remember him being there, to be honest.

 

[Ghostofmerlin]

Martinelli is great, but he's not quite there yet for me. His positioning off the ball is suspect at times. I'd take Saka all day. Except for PKs.

Actually had to come back to wash away my guilt, forgot about Leao. Its because hes underrated, as Serie A is a bit underrated and we loose sight of its players - at least me;) This is actaully interesting comparison Leao vs. Martinelli. For me Martinelli edges it just. But Leao has some games to shine this season.

 

[Tolmie scores]

Fine sentiment but 10 points? Optimist.
Ps This is not the caf.

Exactly, we could lose tonight and be 8 behind with 2 games in hand, could happen so your right about 'caf culture
