Trent’s delivery has been shyt, all these nikkas been shyt, Ibou and Virg been fine, Robbo so-so, Darwin looked most dangerous of the lot, Cody been aight, Momo ok, the rest of these nikkas

Bayerns midfield is very very good bruh u sleeping...u a man united fan so am guessing WOAT weghorst, fred and fernandes is considered world class huh?

#coli-hot-guess


"world class"

Spoiler: ...

but i have been saying it. we need a fast MF who can carry the ball and control/short pass as a minimum in MF in addition to casemiro.
casemiro does not help us with our midfield control problem.

have a look at the pool vs. madrid final last year.

look at home many times casemiro lost the ball or miscontrolled it



i spotted at least.

1:01 bad pass
1:05 bad pass
1:13 bad pass
1:33 bad pass
1:37 lost to mane
1:43 lost to trent
1:56 bad pass
1:59 - they cut it but was a bad pass
2:15 lost to trent
2:46 bad pass
3”03 miscontrol

from the athletic casemiro ONLY succeeded with 37/51 passes in the final i.e. ~72% completion rate.
72% and his limited passing otherwise is not enough.
people will wake up to that and call him a bad player.
he is not a bad player but he needs a modric/kroos (but faster)/kante type next to him.
head up, foot on ball type.

yup. been saying from time we need another MF at least and that casemiro will not help with midfield control.

we have a major problem playing against hard running teams/midfields and it is showing up again tonight.
