Bruno>>FDJ. The latter can’t defend to save his life
He’d be next to Rice in our defensive set up. Jorginho was often getting torn to shreds at Chelsea and is rarely exposed at Arsenal.

Bruno>>FDJ. The latter can’t defend to save his life
So we are expecting rice to never get injured and be available every game. Because Jorginho FDJ will get murderedHe’d be next to Rice in our defensive set up. Jorginho was often getting torn to shreds at Chelsea and is rarely exposed at Arsenal.
Not really, and I’m all for people saying Bruno is fine all things considered, but to say he’s better footballistically than FDJ is insane.
Frenkie would work so well here because he complements Rice perfectly. Everything one is bad at the other excels at and vice versa.
Why would Olise come in to be anyone's backup when almost every top team in the league is interested, some of which can offer him a starting spot and wages that reflect that.
I urge you guys if you can, to watch United vs. Newcastle tomorrow.
Not because I guarantee he’ll have a great or even good game. He might drop a stinker.
But watch the game. Watch him. And watch what he does and try and imagine how what he does applies to different parts of our game.
I think things will click into place for a lot of us.
Rodrygo is a special player, he's such a natural baller, his agility is so similar to Bernardo Silva. Can glide past players.Calling it now.
When Madrid sign Mbappe to play up top with Vini Jr next season, this guy is coming here to star on the left hand side for us alongside his Brazilian buddies already here...
Frenkie can't play as a lone DM (unlike Partey), meaning that Rice would have to play deeper. He's far quicker than Jorginho, but nearly as adept defensively. He's also considered quite weak in La Liga where he still struggles with the physicality.Bruno is a decent player, I don’t disagree with what you say. He will make us better. But what FDJ is far better than Bruno at is turning markers when receiving the ball with his back to play. Arguably he is even better than Partey at this. And in a TP5less world this is the one attribute we need above all else as far as I’m concerned.
I’m not basing this on stats btw (I’m not even sure you can?)
The stats if anything say Bruno is better than Frenkie. The eye test tells me otherwise.
FDJ + Rice + Ødegaard midfield has world class oop defensive cover, world class build up and world class creativity in all phases of play. It’s a wet dream of a midfield and we’ll never see it but that doesn’t mean it’s not true.
Here's a linkAre there any links to Frenkie De Jong?
They offer them silly wages, to be warm the bench.With that logic how does City sign any players then?
Off of the top of my head - competing for the PL, playing CL football for the biggest club in London
Why? He’s repeatedly made the same mistakes not only positionally in defence but also in possession (his supposed strength which is meant to offset his poor defending).I don’t mind Zinchenko, in fact I think he’s been harshly treated by the fans.
Cunha is the one with dribbling with speed and wnd product.Yep or Trossard/Saka with raw pace
I think with CL being more games. Hopefully do better in the cups. We could play +10 games. We need to build the squad. It’s clear the manager won’t play guys like esr or vieira. So they can’t really be counted on
The one I’m most curious about this summer is Zinchenko. What do we do with him
