Torreira and Pepe were our worst performers tonight. Name me one player that has improved under Emery.
Maybe
You're wrong, no?
What the hell was he playing

Such a poor player, offers nothing but chasing the ball like a headless chicken.

Feel for him being played out of position, but I've thought for a while he's not going to nail down a place in the starting lineup with our other options. Been pretty average for most of a year now and from the rumours in the summer he's already missing Italy. Won't be surprised if he's not here next season tbh.

forum master baiter
He’s a good player but he’s not a creative CM. Guendouzi is rightly ahead of him in the standings, and I can’t see Emery dropping Xhaka.
Sad but I don’t see it working out for him.

Emery playing this dude as the furthest midfielder, I cant judge him on that performance when the manager is making such a bizarre decision

Plays this guy in ozils position. Ffs
I dont like the way he is being used. It's definitely affecting his performances.

Guy is an amazing distributor who has a motor and can challenge well. Emery thinks these are great qualities to put to use as a CAM. :frustrated:
Clearly uncomfortable being asked to play to high up. The way he was used against Nottingham Forest is how he should be used all the time. Sit at the base of midfield and break up play.
None of this late arrival in the box bullshit.

It’s like he’s playing the Ramsey role from last year, if anything that should be Willock or Guendo doing that.
He has been poor but I can’t judge him while he’s playing this role. It would be like judging Özil on his performances if Emery played him as a DM.

Emery is definitely not using him right but Torreira is certainly not a great distributor. Regularly hid from the ball last season, and had 14 touches against Napoli form what I remember.

Come on mate. If he was, Emery would play him in his preferred position. He's very poor with his distribution.

Yeah. Against Valencia too. Not good enough.

I won't quite retract my comment but I will admit that I over-stated his ability a bit. I like the guy and don't think he's been used well since he joined the side.

Nothing Wrong With Me
If Emery insists on playing Xhaka then Willock should start ahead of Torreira. I know he was played out of position today but he's been poor every appearance for a while now.

Exactly, either play him as a CDM or don't play him. If he really doesn't want to play him, then play Willock instead. He's a much better player than Torreira in a more advanced midfield position
