In the same vein, when you watch a highlight video of a CB or a DM and it shows none of their defending, just clips of them taking shots, scoring goals, dribbling through the middle etc.

Their schedule over the next couple of weeks: Atalanta (a) 3 days rest Fulham (a) 2 days rest Everton (a) 2 days rest West Ham (a)

The first game of the season the signs were there. Wolves cut through our midfield, and 8 months later we're still repeating the same mistakes. He's so stubborn.

Bale had a better prime. He was basically Ronaldo lite and was the most exciting player in the league during his last season at Spurs imo. Salah beats him for consistency though. Robben is similar to Salah in that he was just so consistent, averaging like 0.8 G/A per game for like 7 years in...
