Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [30th Aug - 1st Sept 2022]

Mctom is gonna end up at Celtic, nowhere near good enough for United.
Hard to disagree but, he offers a lot of mass and that's quite important in a team which isn't the biggest. He wins a lot of headers and partnered with Eriksen instead of Fred makes more sense as at least one of them can play a forward pass. The real difference is Varane and Martinez who hold a much better line than Maguire and Lindelof.
 
Because Varane and Martinez are really comfortable with he ball at their feet and don't panic when they don't have the ball. They don't get caught out of position 30-40 yards up the pitch. You have a proper pairing at the back now who can be reliable and trusted. Not a clown like Maguire who needs his hand held!
 
Love to know David De Gea's long kick completion stats. I feel like it's going to be something like 15% because he's always conceding possession

Very poor. There was a chart in one of our previous games and it was the vast majority that lose us posession. A few things would make the world of difference. A keeper that can play out from the back. A better McTominay and having Martial back.


How is it we look so organised, good on the ball and composed at the back without our £60m+ captain harry maguire?

£80*

Martinez is so much more proactive than Maguire. The rest of the team doesn't have to worry so much when Martinez is back there.

If anything his absence has slashed any transfer value he might’ve had whilst playing!
 
Oh and someone go and slap Rashford. Does my head in watching him stroll around like hes peak ******* Wayne Rooney.

At this Rate he will be behind Martial and Ronaldo for CF and behind Sancho, Antony and Elanga for the wing positions.

We can but hope. Absolutely gash.

We should try and get Ronaldo at least firing a bit, he's a bigger danger than Rashford for sure. Just need pace around him.

I would say Elanga just hasn't the ability right now.

Maybe Antony will be better.
 
I think the De Gea situation has to be addressed with a proper ball playing keeper before ETH can implement what he wants. Maybe that is where Dubravka will come in?

For sure. Ideally Martial stays fit for more than 10 minutes but thats not happening at the moment. Not even on the bench today.

Would like to see Casemiro on in the second half and Garnacho for Elanga.
