Remodez

Endrick performs well for Brazil, also doing well in France by all accounts and Igor Thiago has been good all season even if his goals include pens. Tough break for him but it's not a unreasonable call. Neymar call up is fine, no different to Belgium calling up Wistel or us with Henderson. Whoever's spot he took will most likely not have featured anyway outside of 1 game max if 1st place is secured. Might as well have that role go to Neymar for the experience, a lot of players there look up to him afterall.

We've literally seen them be worse while fielding 5 defenders v worse opposition so I have no idea what you are talking about. I think control is apt given the spell we had after they had scored but either way the point is we didnt looked gassed, we just weren't good enough in the final third.

Defensively of course compared to our last few games. Don't think i agree with your gassed assessment, we were mostly in control towards the end and had them pinned back just lacked quality in the final third which was the case from min 1.

Gusto was mostly good today, questionable crosses included.

Mixed feelings. Thought we were great defensively for most of the match, just took a moment of quality, but also disappointed with the lack of quality in the final third An improvement given our performances so far but still work to be done

In fairness we don't have access to all the medical information. It's always in the clubs best interest to push surgery regardless even when it's not always required.

I have zero issues selling him for the fees being mentioned but don't trust our board to sign a good replacement, especially now the striker market has slim pickings

Don't think it was ignored, it's similar to when there are multiple fouls outfield the ref will focus on the one that impacted play the most.

Such as? The only one I've seen that comes remotely close from those compilations on X is the United one and even that is not the same cause 1) Someone, I think Mount, is pushing Gabriel into his own keeper and 2) Gabriel is just standing there, he's not block the GKs hands from making a save. I agree with the WWE moves like we had on Pedro but like I said more often than not those are called, we just got screwed that game.

I don't mind the jostling, etc between players on set pieces, it's normal in a contact game. The more extreme cases of WWE moves are punished more often than not but they still need to do better to reach 100% rather than the 60%-70%range they are called at now. As for the Raya situation, I do not understand the controversy. Clearly holding down Raya's hands and pulling him, those fouls are just about the only thing VAR is always consistent on. I'm no fan of Arsenal either but there has never been a situation where their players are holding down a keepers hand and pulling his shirt at the same time that was given as a goal. I remember like 2 seasons ago they also had a goal ruled out for the same foul so there's no conspiracy here.

Good 20-30mins but pretty poor after that. Not the worse offender by any means but with the fee and captain armband comes higher expectations.

As much as he divides opinion here, he would do well under Pep and in City's system.

I don't want to see this guy play for my club anymore.

I've never seen anything like it in my life. There may have been games where we've conceeded 3 goals in the first half but we still, to my recollection, have never looked as awful as we did in that first half. I was quite indifferent to Rosenior before to be honest as don't belive it's entirely his fault but after witnessing that first half I hope he was sacked the moment he got back to the dressing room.

I am struggling to think of a game where we have been dominated so easily in a half. This might be the worse half in the clubs history, at least in my lifetime.

Funnily enough I think the worst of his defending has come from him playing LB rather than CB.

Think he's allowed 1 bad game given how good he has been this season at both clubs.

Fair play to him i thought he was shocking but really seems to have turned it around

Did you see our bench? No one there is going to help us win a game so who comes on is irrelevant. If we don't put the game to bed with your starting XI the game is as good as lost cause that bench isn't going to help us.

We played well to be fair but as usual dismal squad planning leaves us with no option on the bench to help change a game

So basically all they are going to do is keep refinancing the loans until the valuation of the club is at a point where they are happy to sell. Let's say in 10 years time they have about 2 to 3 billion worth of loans to repay but sell for about 10 to 15 billion it all would have been worth it to them in the end. We are f**ked from a competitive point of view but that's already obvious, the club will be fine financially in long run.

I'm not really sure I see him as this holding player Rosenior seems to see him as to be honest. I don't recall him playing this way at Strasbourg but open to be corrected.

He point was about winning things and Maresca is the only one who did that.

Well it was always gonna catch up to us at some point, maybe not as spectacularly as under Rosineor but you can't make so many changes in defence every game and not leak goals.

I am not sure I agree with this assessment. He tries a lot and doesn't give up which is why his failures are so prominent.
