He was alright at first tbf, but has been so bad this season until recently

Basically what @safebruv said

We’ve had a decent first XI but no strength in depth. We’ve been lucky with injuries the last couple of seasons, so it hasn’t been an issue.

Policy seems to be to bring in players to develop which is fine in theory, but having injuries at the same time as no ready made replacements for Jota and Doc has left us in the shit a bit this season.

Neves and Traore look proper off it too. Moutinho getting on.

Semedo used to play for Barcelona, y’know.

@gonad

Always had the feeling he was playing above his level tbf. We’ll have him back though, if you want.

That old formation was really hard to play against.

A weird 3-4-2-1 could get 9 behind the ball in seconds.

Can’t play that without a proper 9 and wing backs though.

I know he’s really young and wasn’t supposed to play anywhere near as much as he has this season, but that lad from the Strokes looks way out of his depth

He’s back!

Traore has always been very hit and miss. Mostly miss.

Neves has been poor this year

Moutinho has been incredibly reliable but like you say, not sure how much longer he can keep it up fit.

Luiz can’t suppress his true nature. He’s like a werewolf who loses it when the moon comes out. Or when he gets in the penalty area.

Don’t really understand why that’s a foul? Does he even touch him? He doesn’t even make a challenge?

It’s called a face turn :slightly_smiling_face:

I fucking despise him. Just absolutely everything about him.

#248

That said it’s so obviously not a red card and I don’t understand how anyone who knows the rules could allow it on review

#249

He just runs in a straight line?

#250

How is that even a pen?

#251

The weird thing re: strikers was recalling Cutrone from Fiorentina, not using him and then sending him back out on loan to Valencia. Unless he’s turned utterly useless or his attitude is shit, he can’t be a worse option than Fabio Casbalancas

A penalty kick is awarded if a player commits a direct free kick offence inside their penalty area
