If we had eleven Foden's, we'd win everything, every season.

Cheating timewasting shower, how the tables have turned.

blame the ref, he let it happen

Alvarez is offering even less than Doku.

JFE is still walking off the pitch

Hey, first time I did!!! :)

I'm using dictation these days hence the constant errors

Typing is a nightmare for me and many ways.

Just add...|

Alvarez, lacks pace.

So if pep instructs Jeremy to do this thing run at the defence over and over and over....

TO TIRE THEIR DEFENDERS

It means that Alvarez slower pace is not as slow because the other defenders are going to have less pace who had more earlier in the match.

So effectively increases Alvarez' efficacy edibility, to not have such a disadvantage due to his lack of pace.

And I have a feeling that's what Pep might have been thinking.

And look at the sub that is made now by Ten Rag?

You think it has to do with him worried about tiring players?

Who helped caused that??

Jeremy

Most of us are accustomed to start with a slower player to start the match

Then bring on the pacey player when they're tired out, the defenders that is.

Alvarez, in my view and I think others can struggle because he doesn't always have the pace in certain situations he's not that slow but it's interesting because this is the opposite of what you usually see but it makes a lot of sense to me.

It could be what was thinking I think it's not too hard to see that as a possibility

Careful Kyle, risky pass

Walker…..why shoot?

Because he is brain dead and tries it every game , does my nut in

Kev is having a seriously bad hair day

Can’t take him off tho as he can still sprinkle this game with a little bit of magical jizz..
