Think Alvarez is loads better as a ‘10’ than he is a ‘9’ in this team. More than just a focal point or somebody to finish off chances.

 

[Blu1]

Bob should of hit it then

 

[Big Joe Corrigan]

I am not saying anything about their respective abilities but Duko really highlights how uncreative jack is as a winger. He really doesn't have a repertoire of plays and I can't remember the last time I have seen him do something unexpected, for better or worse

Jack gives us control when we need it.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

I just don't see it with Phillips.

I've seen more from Rico and Gomez with limited game time.

He’s a good player but not sure he’s proactive enough off the ball for our side. I’d take a draw at Arsenal now. Rodri is a huge loss.

Because I am sick of the relentless persecution of one of our own. It is boring.

respectfully fuck off. "persecution" these are highly HIGHLY paid individuals, they are living the fucking dream. you are not a better or holier fan because you don't wanna acknowledge he is not playing to the needed level

 

[Gabriel]

This is great experience for the young ones. Good pace to the game and just the right degree of physical challenge.

 

[TrentGrisham]

Good ball from Phillips. Just a bit too much on that from Bobb.

 

[Iamthemusicman]

Bobb should have had a go there.

 

[upb78]

Ohh that pass was a little too strong, unlucky anyway

 

[ThreesKompany]

Very nice ball from Phillips to Bobb. Bobb needs to back himself there rather than deferring to Alavarez.
