Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [26th - 28th August 2022]

What I also like is that he's not shy in berating a team mate who has messed up. A bit of personality and leadership.
Tbf, slabhead is good as berating his team mates, but he does it when he's the one who messed up. Probably why no-one wants to play for him as captain.
 
Sancho is annoying me, he looks half arsed and is reminding me of Lingard in his slumber. Makes you nervous about signing another £80m winger. Elanga not robust enough.
 
Middle of the pitch is still a mess for us. No control and we don't know what we are doing when we get the ball and need to make fast decisions. Its all hurried and low percentage.

Unless Casemiro transforms us we still need a CM more than any other position.
 
What does Elanga actually offer?

Running and bit of skill occasionally but his end product is severely lacking and hes very lightweight.

Rashford seems to have gone back to walking around. He reminds me of Ronaldo. Only wants to work when he thinks there is something in it for him personally. Who cares if the team scores if I don't.
 
McTominay is just not suited to this role at all, completely invisible.

Unfortunately he hides whenever there is the potential for being under pressure receiving the ball and only likes to stick his head above the parapet when he can fight for a ball. Doesn't offer nearly enough in the role he is in when we have the ball and need outlets or options.

I think the criticism the team the team has been getting for the past year plus has made a lot of our players super risk averse and nervous.
 
We haven't been awful, but it's not great.

Casemiro on for McTominay ASAP please.
We have been pretty awful. It's an obvious sub but I don't see it transforming the game. I can't see this Bruno / Eriksen axis. I still maintain Fernandes is a problem in this team. His positional discipline and ball retention is awful. Eriksen is neutered playing along side McSauce. Pretty poor.
