You mean playing the kind of attractive one touch football that we'd like to see from our CM's?He was treating the ball like a hot potato and the rest is exactly right.

Man do y'all think he was really that bad? @Macho
Yeah could be , don't disagree , but usually we look to him to dictate , break presses and exploit space with his ball carrying . He was subdued to his normal .
He was getting boo'ed every touch he took. So kind of expected. He'll be better in home games.
If Partey gets injured again you will all see why he is so important for this team even when he plays bad. He is our least problem.
I agree. My point was to not **** on the player so much.Actually he is our biggest problem IMO.
As much as I see an attacking shape which can function without him, does he remain a single point of failure (or at the very least a huge drop off) when he is out. We need to remove that danger from our setup, and for me that means directly replacing him.

That’s why I think the ideal would be to find a premium quality left 8 who can cover at 6. Then we could accommodate two players with enough quality to play 6.If we replaced him wouldn't the replacement then be a single point of failure?

We should have signed Bruno Guimaraes.
Got to agree. I think he’s the player we seriously should have gone all out for + we probably would have secured CL football last season had we signed him:
Might sound wild but if we got Bruno Guimarães and Raphinha, I think we’d have an outside chance of going for the title imo.

Whilst I do agree that we should've signed Guimaraes, didn't we try to? I'm not 100% sure what happened though, from the brief reading I've done apparently we didn't have enough money and Newcastle (fresh with blood monies) could.
I'm kind of at the acceptance stage now with him that he's not going to be the transformational player that i'd hoped/thought he was going to be.Actually he is our biggest problem IMO.
