Injuries 2024/25 | Kovacic ruled out for a month

[houraisen]

It is time to try McAtee as a starter.

 

[mancboy]

been saying it since the beginning of the season, bernie into midfield, has everything you want, can put a tackle in, reads the game well, only thing he lacks is height, conversely jacob wright looked bang tidy when he came on against spurs

I'm beginning to think Kalven Phillips is a witch doctor

 

[gaz76]

Kovacic too. Haha. Fuck me. Who for defensive midfield then?

Gvardiol? Jonny Boulders? Akanji?

As much as I love me some Kovaball, it might be turning point in the season whereby we have to change our approach and tactics. Maybe now two holding midfielders?

Either way. Excited to see what Pep produces. I personally wouldn’t mind some extra midfield numbers and stability to save us being ran through with ease. Especially with the dippers coming up.

I watched gvardiol the other night for Croatia and he looks perfect for a defensive midfielder role

Nah he's just a terrible football player who disguised himself well in a poor Leeds team.

Yes I already knew that bit

 

[Mancini’s Pastilles]

Fuck it. Play Jacob Wright

 

[eyalluvitt]

Pep choosing the midfield starters for Spurs

It isn’t.

Yep.
It's his natural position, so time for Pep to trust the lad & hope Jacob can make the step up.
