He's refused to play Grealish anywhere but the left touchline for over two years.

Exactly

Should be a couple of goals up , we should be used to oponnents like this lot , eleven behind the ball and waiting for our midfield to gift them the ball on the half way line to take advantage , we have been hit with a sucker punch a few times this season we need to cut out the occasional sloppiness in midfield.We also need to replace Mahrez and Gundo's goals ,neither of Nunes or Kovacic look capable ,Grealish hardly ever scores , Doku is potential at the moment apart from the Viking no idea where the goals are coming from with this eleven on the field at the moment,

He's gonna have to shove on Alvarez 'n Foden on 50 or 55 mins.

Maybe, huge drop off to the players we ended up getting

We have to give them time. Gundo or Rodri weren't rated by many when they first came.

Bernardo and Phil on - win 3-1

That header?

The Nunes strike a few minutes after, mate.

said it another thread but Bellingham and his goals and Nunes/Kovacic and their goals are like not something we can compare.

wish we managed to get Bellingham. he scored more for Real up until end of October than Nunes/Kovacic will score will all season for us combined.
we really need goals from middle of the park given we lost a lot of goals from Mahrez, Gundo and KDb too.
Phillips aint gonna add shit while Stones/Rico neither will rack up serious numbers, unfortunately neither Bernardo when is played centrally.
Rodri will add a few overall...

having said that with better finishing we should 2-0 up easily today, really hope Haaland can score again in CL, its some time now he scored in CL. last goal from him was QF 2nd game vs Bayern. since then he started all games 2 semis, final, and 2.5 group games this season but keeps firing blank.

he was top scorer in CL last season, time for him to find his shooting boots. usually to be top scorer in this tournament you need some braces and hattricks vs the easiest opponents.

It just may be a season where we need to leverage our army of centerbacks and win low scoring games.

Not much we can do when the Brummie **** thinks we’re a plastic club. Madrid are welcome to the moaning fucker.

Ha fucking hell Micah

 

[Blueknows]

3 points and no injuries……….please

Rico , nunes ,jack and kova getting 90 mins is also a benefit to the squad

But losing the ball a bit too much and that will annoy Pep

Oh yes, agree totally. but hes finding lots of space. I can see him being a decent player, hence the finding his feet. Once he learns our pattern and stops trying too hard.
