Excellent defender, pace is a huge asset as is his ability to receive the ball under severe pressure in tight spaces. Hoping for a big season from him now that we've got someone in to manage the team

He suits peps style brilliantly imo
i wouldn't. We all had this hope Angelino would break through last season but we've seen almost every time he plays he's severely lacking defensively. This became clearer still during his loan spell at NYCFC. He'd get absolutely torn part against a decent right winger in the premier league. Angelino has always looked like a winger playing at fullback, he needs to learn the defensive side of the game quickly otherwise he's going to end up back as a winger in the lower tiers instead of potentially a top class fullback. As much as people love to hate Kolarov, suggesting Angelino is currently better is absurd. He's simply not.
Every confidence Pep can make Clichy step up a gear though. He's shown the odd glimpses of attacking ability, he has the pace for it it always seemed to be a mental thing with him where he'd have to turn around as soon as he went over the halfway line. Can put in a great cross on occasions and has the intensity in his game Pep loves. He'll do well next season
No, I'd say Fernandinho was our most consistent player all season but Fernando came on leaps and bounds after the new year. I know you disagree but, yes, I think he's been our best player over the last six months.
I'd agree with that. many on here don't rate nando, but he showed signs towards the latter end of last season why we brought him to the club. Hoping for a great season for the lad
i've always been a Clichy fan, seems like a solid professional and a generally reliable footballer but i must admit last season he became a little too average, crosses were generally poor, defending was a bit suspect on occasion etc.
