Joe Willock: Joening the First Team

[Football Manager]

Interesting you put Kroos in there. Couldn't name a more British style player.
Kuyt isn't exactly British.

They aren't talentless either, they just have particular skills that actually were amongst the best in the world. All of those players you mentioned have performed well vs your listed skillful players.

When did I say kyut was british? Kroos/scholes are clearly more xavi-ish than gerrard/lampard.

Are you telling me that they are not talentless and play boring football?

Loved how physical he was against Fiorentina. He’s always had a gangly look to him but it looks like he’s finally putting on that muscle. Got the physique and technical ability to make the CM spot his own really.

Keep going Joe.

you brits like your rooney, milner, kyut, walcott, wright phillips, gerrard, lampard, ramsey.... those skilless, talentless, hardworking cvnt, don’t you??


I bet you all have never watch ronaldinho, ronaldo, neymar, iniesta, kroos, busquets play to appreciate beautiful football....


After all these years of arsenal, united and man city educating you brits about beautiful football, how come you still like your boring shhite....

Where are you from?

Rooney, Gerrard and lampard had no skill? You went down the route of trying to name British players and thought of Dirk Kuyt? Lol

I got laughed at for suggesting Willock as an internal Ramsey replacement.

Ppl finally seeing da light

Xavi was a more accomplished Denilson

Because he does fit to the category of talentless hardworking players who based his game on physicality and stamina.

Answer his first question.

You clearly know nothing about football if you consider Rooney, Lampard and Gerrard to have had no skill.

Answer his first question.

It’s a football forum.
If you agree with the points I made, it’s fine.
If not, provide counter arguments.
You don’t have to make things personal.

Have you ever watch ronaldinho, silva, modric, zidane, scholes, xavi, pirlo...play?

To answer your question yes I have.

What made Scholes a skilful player but Gerrard not? Give me stats and proof.

Awful title change! The more I see of Willock, the more I like what he has to offer.

You made it personal saying "you Brits". Many people on this forum are from other countries but your targeting one group. And you can't even argue your point

I think by the way he is being used and the minutes he is being given, it is pretty obvious he is going to start alot of games this season.

Willock seems on the brink if owning that CM role for years to come. Love to see it.

What I'm absolutely loving about these friendlies is the hunger and genuine passion I see when our youngsters are playing. Eddie, Saka, Willock, hell even Burton is a very good surprise. They are making a point to show us all they wont be denied.

Very excited about things to come.

That's why I argued about a lot of these young kids staying and not going on loan.

They show passion and fight in friendlies so you can imagine in a proper match what they will be like.

If we treat these young players right and give them some game time the future could be a lot brighter for us.

I like some of the young players here, but because of their ability, not passion.

If you are good enough you play. As simple as that.

Passion won’t make a walcott into a messi.

Yeah while passion isn't everything it's very important. We have enough dummies when the chips are down that hide. That run away. That can't be counted upon. Hopefully these young players demonstrate something better than that.

We kept the best Willock, no?
