it's unfortunate that his assists have completely dried up this season

Does he lose it all the time or just stop and recycle it? Frustrating to watch for sure but I'm not buying that he can never be good for us

had enough of the full backs in midfield nonsense tbh

think we will probably need at least one if not two different types of full back under a new manager

currently feels like we have wing backs currently playing a suicidal tactic defensively

quite easy to not lose the ball if youre that safe tbf

I think the current fullbacks are good enough. Maybe another actual left back that can cover centre back

He’s definitely not physically strong. He’s not gil but I think the majority of premier league defenders love playing against him

I think that's more cos he's only going to go down the line and when we play so high up the pitch that's easy to defend against

I really rate Spence and Porro

Udogie has more obvious flaws but also is still very young and has great tools, he just shouldn't be used as a number 10 effectively

TEI getting that Udogie as an 8 question made me squirm

So another pic of levy & Poch with some fans at the coffee shop.

Obviously doesn’t mean anything but for levy to go out in such a public space while our current manager on the brink is just ludicrous.

He’d know it’ll get the rumours going

our biggest issue in terms of the squad is the midfield

think they're all good players in their own right but i dont like how they are playing and wonder if they can adapt into a more normal full back roll of providing the width

Agreed. Someone who's going to reliably position themselves properly in defensive actions and make tackles

Spence & Porro are absolutely fine but Udogie is just a bit meh and injury prone.

Think all 3 would look better in the traditional way FBs should play

Bissouma is inconsistent as heck, Bentancur knees gone and not an actual defensive mid. The rest too young and chaotic

definitely. why we have struggled for control in games

Maddison is the only one who can pass forward and he can only play 60 minutes a week seemingly

A DM is crucial this summer

Maddison disappears way too often for me. Kulusevski pretty well always has an impact there even if he's knackered

was last summer

Kulusevski more of a carrier than a passer when playing the 10 though

Maddison and Kulu are simultaneously two of our best and important players and struggle to fit in the same side

Tel also being pretty poor has been disappointing

Yeah not the same player. Eze combines both nicely

hes young, seems we were desperate but needed more experience. if he is a 9 hes too different to Solanke
