Bruno

Rashford needs to leave for a number of reasons but he's nowhere near our worst forward player. So he won't be leaving on that basis but more so that he's on huge wages, not playing well for a while now and he himself wants a new challenge.

Every time I see us without Bruno we are a good 25% to 30% worse. It's a massive myth that his carelessness on the ball being absent for a game will make us better. It just never does.

Tomorrow is going to be an absolute mauling, with or without Bruno.

I just don’t see us competing.

His carelessness with the ball is also vastly exaggerated by those who like having simple narratives to explain everything.

He is careless with the ball. There is no doubt we lack a creative player when he doesn't play, because we simply do not have one but, multiple times a game when we are under a bit of pressure, he will try something ridiculous while our players are out of position and he is out of position, and it completely facks us over putting our defence under pressure because we have a non existent midfield.
Nothing is exaggerated really, this is what happens during games.

It's part of a bigger problem to be honest, the fact that our creative player can lose the ball and when he does, we are absolutely facking facked positionally. Still, he should have the experience and the awareness to realise what should happen if he were to lose the ball.

The flip side is, we are absolutely toothless without him.

I'm interested to see how he plays tomorrow, assuming the game goes ahead. I'm completely expecting him to just moan and being an ineffective whiney cant.

He was really good today but let's be honest. That wasn't a normal performance from him.

I'm sure we'll see serious introspection from the OP and Tomatoes.
