You’re probably right, if any mods can ping me to get it changed then that’d be great.Yup
You are named after a right ol wanker
I reckon if you ask a mod they will change it for you. It’s a good reason
Defensively you can’t question him, but if we are looking for a goal or attacking a team that are sitting back he should be offering more going forward.And there are still people questioning him
It's a team game. Is he the best attacking FB? No, but he's exceptional defensively in a way that in these matches against top opposition allows us to play to our strengths in a major way. He deserves time to develop the attacking end of his game we need against teams we need to dominate against more, and at least in terms of movement, we have seen signs of it.Defensively you can’t question him, but if we are looking for a goal or attacking a team that are sitting back he should be offering more going forward.
Hopefully that goal at the weekend will help him.
True. People will lambast him for his poor attacking output, but compared to the likes of Robertson and TAA, hes a much, much better defender. First couple of games aside, he just locks down that right side and did so all of last season.We will get most of out value on him against all the best wingers. He has owned all the big wingers in the PL now on to the ucl.
Mbappe probably saw it as a challenge and wanted to destroy that flank.I think PSG (a) didn’t rate him as a defender or (b) didn’t do any homework on him . They know who he is after tonight.
Thou shalt not pass.
Mixture of both for me. He is simply epic when a player takes him on. I was surprised PSG didnt change tactics and drop deeper and play more through the middle. Versus Newcastle we gave so much space for Shelvey to shoot it seemed an obvious option.Mbappe probably saw it as a challenge and wanted to destroy that flank.
MaldiniProbably recency bias, but I can’t think of many, if any, players that time their tackles so well one on one. Anyone else able to think of any?
He needs to train the same shot as he did vs Newcastle. Surely after practicing it for 500+ times he will become used to it.
He will score a lot just from that angle alone. Then we can forget about him not being an attacking FB.
Did anyone else think of Tony Vs goal against Blackburn after? I thought it had similar qualities.He needs to train the same shot as he did vs Newcastle. Surely after practicing it for 500+ times he will become used to it.

Philip LahmProbably recency bias, but I can’t think of many, if any, players that time their tackles so well one on one. Anyone else able to think of any?
He will probably never be TAA - but then again, who will ?Defensively you can’t question him, but if we are looking for a goal or attacking a team that are sitting back he should be offering more going forward.
