Someone told me these lads would never be able to press
That's because he's constantly in space, and yet he's not been used a whole lot.Almost created a goal.
Gueye's 4th goal in 6 matches while being a lockdown defender.
If only somebody had suggested signing him this summer.
Important thing is he is a guy who loves his family.Hes not a serious guy
Liverpool's whipping boys continue to serve their masters.1-0 Salah.
Exactly.I think the point @NinjaZombie was making is that’s the kind of central midfielder we want and need.
I disagree, that midfield would get overrun quick with Bruno and Pogba (to a lesser extent) tendency to turn over possession to the opposition. Pogba's defensive contributions are not good and Bruno's positioning is too high up in this setup. The way it could work is getting Bruno to drop deeper (playing him as more of a b2b cm) and getting him to give away the ball less.You definitely can, for the vast majority — because you play to dominate possession and matches. In bigger games you tweak, but a Pogba Verratti pivot would have enough to control midfields against most sides around.
Moot point though, would never happen (at least for us).
you should delete all his music regardlessI didn't realize he was a City fan. I'm deleting all his music.
Less so nowPlaying well right now I'm not going to lie. Much better start then vs Ajax.
My point was, Fred's importance to the team is overstated and Ole's faith in him is unfounded.That's silly. Unless you really expect us to have world class players in every position on the pitch? We need a better CM than Fred sure but let's be realistic too.

he's been so goodMessi lost a yard, hasn't he?
2nd bestHow are City looking?
It's really ridiculous what oil money can get you.That PSG lineup is incredible. Only Herrera is a weak link and even he is very very good.

Strangling possession. PSG look dangerous when they go forward.How are City looking?
Feel like they were just incapable of dealing with City's press in the second half of last season's game. Now the full press is on from City but they're still playing it out quite well.2nd best
Bit then they did in this fixture last season in the first half and still won
Its built on that midfield 3. So solid.Someone told me these lads would never be able to press
We have no midfield pairing without him that is better than one with him. Anyway, you’re in the wrong thread moaning about him.My point was, Fred's importance to the team is overstated and Ole's faith in him is unfounded.
