We don't really have a forward, built for the game of ball possession like Chidera Ejuke.

I hope he is in Finidi's plans.

TBH, I didn't watch him during his playing days. So I can't really say
He has imposing body that coaches love to see,very calm and skillful but from AM to DM limited his games.

I don't know why Sani Keita was picked ahead of Seyi Olofinjana for 2010 WC cuz Seyi was far better even as DM.We talked about this recently and said he regretted not making it and what made it painful was that he deserved a spot.

Winning trophies for years is not a new thing to Manchester united, But the fact remains Man utd had a revenge of last season FA Cup final defeat against Manchester city.

Bruno Fernandes admitted the sacrifice the team and the manager Erik Ten Hag made to make sure the bring the cup to Old Trafford, and the tactics used to breakdown City backline.

It was indeed an outstanding performance from Manchester United, Pep did not see this coming because he felt it was going to be a walkover for his team.

I hope so. Childera Ejuke's case is a frustrating one. The potential is there.

He played 35 games for Southampton scored four goals and one direct assist and had been pivotal in the offensive attacks and forward play for Southampton.

Maybe you should give your opinion to his manager and see if he will listen to you.

Compare the stat to that of Sadiq Umar considering the number of matches and minutes played, then maybe you should give your opinion to Valencia and Getafe. grin grin

The team as a whole has regressed badly, it's almost as if Spaletti overachieved last season. If you think it's Osimhen's fault, check Kvaraskhelia stats too or any other player in the team.

Also, Osimhen has been battling injuries, he didn't start yesterday.

He is very good in the game of passes, short passes, long passes, and what have you.

He is not that easy to disposses of the ball, in the many cases of it, he has to be fouled in order to rid him of the ball.

He is also good at making passes that results to goal scoring opportunities. His four assists, does not tell the whole story.

His positioning is very good. He tracks back a lot to help in the various stages of build up play.

Actually, Mikel was built and made for the tiki Taka game. There was a season, I think under Ancelotti where Mikel made more passes in total than Paul Scholes and Xabi Alonso. He was built for the passing game. By the way, Siasia plays expansive passing game.

u re right on this one. His a one touch player who knows the right time to release the ball, dribble and hold up play in the middle

He was very similar to busquet and carrick. The only downside of his playing style of lack of pace and shooting ability

I don't know why Sani Keita was picked ahead of Seyi Olofinjana for 2010 WC cuz Seyi was far better even as DM.We talked about this recently and said he regretted not making it and what made it painful was that he deserved a spot.
