Elite creator Gundo profile Player with 7/10 defensive nous + 7/10 build-up Even NOR looks more like a small space technician who can crash the box. You’re missing a power athlete who can do one of these jobs at the same time after missing out on Jude & Rice & KDB leaving.

Cherki, Reijnders,Nico Gonzalez The run continues.



Winning the ball in isolation is overrated. Man Utd signing Ugarte because of ball-winning syndrome. Midfielder defensive ability should be broken down into: 1. Spatial recognition within your defensive shape - when to leave your man and press in high pressing, tracking runs in…

It seems like the balance is thrown off if there is a player who isn’t good on the ball but good at winning the ball back.



If you look at football history I think midfield is the most important area for complementary dynamics. I think you can get away with attack & defence dynamics being slightly off, but in midfield you need everything covered in terms of defensive nous, physicality, press…


The main reason for Man City’s league dominance was their midfield recruitment. Silva, Fernandinho, Yaya, Gundogan, KDB, Bernardo, Rodri is the craziest run of midfield buys.


The crazy fact that many don’t know about Scholes is that he has a 14 non-penalty goal PL season when he was given the luxury of playing as an attacking midfielder in 2002/03. That’s actually a higher tally than any Lampard season. Scholes was a top goalscorer when used in that…


Ruben Neves, top guy top player


Tuchel has got a really strong 3-2-5 going here. It was the same attacking structure vs Serbia and it’s flowing beautifully. Jude got a tailor-made role for him in this system too in the right half-space of the front 5.


Barca are running dry on squad resources. Flick-ball doesn’t provide rest with the ball or rest without the ball & I think that impacts the ability to keep players fit. That’s the edge Alonso has on them to keep guys fit despite Barca having a higher ceiling when everyone is fit.

I’ll explain properly later but there is some misalignment between the coach’s style of play and the current profile of players available to him now Trent has gone. Very similar to what happened to Conte when Matić & Costa left the starting XI in the second season.

What’s gone wrong with Liverpool?



5 months later… Slot hooks Bradley and Konaté within 60 minutes of a match for two midfielders. That build-up combination is horrible.

Konaté Bradley is a buildup black hole, so bad. 3 of the back 4 can’t pass

A Champions League team who needs an attacking 8 have got to be moving for Kang-in Lee soon. His feet move so quick and he has a ping of a shot on him. Can slide passes in-behind defences too.


This whole build-up can be replicated by Curtis Jones RB to connect to the 6 (LFC full-backs not doing that this season). Kerkez-Wirtz combining down the left flank and Szoboszlai returning to RCM (which he needs to do if you wanna see the real Mo Salah back again btw)..
