I mean, I just agreed with someone else who suggested it. It looked that way to me
based on how many games and the types of games he was missing.
Couldn't get the stats, but didn't Mkhi in his first season by December, missed a lot of games too? Only near the end of the year, he starts to play more regularly, that counter attack goal against Spurs damn good.
Maybe almost similar number to Fred. Mkhi complained and now Fred complaints. The similarity is both doesn't adhere to Mou's defensive football, at least for Fred not yet, doubt he will anyway (he's much more naturally suited to high press and attacking possession) so similarly he gets dropped.
It's ridiculous by Mou as usual but I think it's still his signing. Pretty sure last season, months before we signed Fred, Mou commented how a Brazilian player should be in any good team, and also said something like our midfield lacks a certain type of midfielder, basically hinting the plan to get that type of midfielder to complete it and we got Fred, who is a Brazilian, different style of player and completes our midfield option.
