Side note. I don’t think players who are the opposite of injury prone don’t get enough credit. It’s a massive positive attribute. Should add millions to their value. Not naming any names as don’t want to jinx them!
That is right. Usually these are the players often criticised for their price tag like HM and Fred who are our key players. Would add Bruno there too, he really was a steal.
For the bottom level part I think it´s more about the consistency because enyone can have a horrible game and it happened to everyone before, so for that reason I agree with
Luke Shaw, It´s his higher gear weve been looking for for the majority of his career. I think in that sense of his contribution he would be the Carrick of defenders as MC really achieved the world class level for a season and a half time but througout years his bottom level was very high and he was super consistent.
Fred I think might have a few average games before the last one in terms of his passing but generally he´s been superb for us, since the end of his first season with us. Always provides high class defensive attributes that we lack otherwise we are half the team.
Maguire for that reason is also very high, absolutely dominates the air, and physical duels, fearlesss with the ball and with confidence.
Good shout for
AWB too, you knowwhat you can expect from the kid and and he had a rougher "average" patch but more often than not weknow how he´s gonna play.
McT had some horrible and not good enough games over the years but I feel he´s one of the few more consistent players with maybe nto so high potential but can do his job kinda status.
Lastly I´d like to mention coaching and the system as I think players can sometimes be as consistent as their manager let them. If we had a proper system, not relying on playersindividual brilliance at timess, some player would look so much better. But that´s for another debate..
