Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - We are SO back, the Premier League returns!

Eddie proved he can play well at 9

Love Eddie but just not who I want as my 9.

Would be great for a team outside the top 4/6 though

I'm in agreement, but for now that's who we have as backup. We'll just have to wait and see how things shake out but Arteta seems to be convinced Eddie should be the guy backing up Jesus. It is what it is, I'd prefer to have dilemma's on who to keep or sale rather than just have no kind of depth. We've been doing the "we don't have guys to back up players" game too long.

I mean even Jesus as a 9 is something I’m still not sold on

Great player, wouldn’t sell but not clinical enough for that role

I'm convinced you don't live in America if you're asking this question. American fans are fukking delusional about ALOT of things in every sport. US Men's soccer is no different.

How do I become a citizen?

i don't think tet is convinced, he was quick to bush him and play trossard in the false 9. eddie needs to put on his finishing boots so that he can be a reliable super sub. we can't tolerate jesus style finishing without the jesus benefits. also eddie starting made for a poorer martinelli.

He was phenomenal to close out the year…. Am I the only who would be cool with just rolling out Troussard as a false nine like a a lot?

Should enquire after Vlahović... We have however, packed the midfield with very capable finishers to make up for Jesus' weaknesses.

The us soccer twitterheads are losing their minds hyping him up and I don't know why.

Is anyone with half a brain hyping him because I don’t see that on Twitter at all.

USMNT fans and media can be clueless for sure. Ive seen them hype numerous guys that ball out against concacaf teams then struggle against UEFA or Conembol sides.

Did they forget how horrible he looked against the Netherlands? One thing I will say about JF though is he is ahead of Josh Sargent and Haji Wright, but clearly behind Balogun and Pepi
