How far? Do you still think Gio Reyna is head and shoulders above Sancho?

patrickmuf:
Spot one...Any other player not named Messi...

KDB is the midfield version of Messi, he does what you expect of him...

Expert17:
By the end of this season Bruno would have won
every personal awards and records KDB has in EPL. (Goals in a season, assists, EPL best etc)

KDB is 4/5 years older, and their style of play is different,

patrickmuf:
KDB is better than Bruno...Die this matter.

Jodera:
true for what you said

But you watched the compilation twitter clip of Bruno sent here right?
Isn't that what you wanted from Bruno? Is that the kind of passes the ozils and fabregas' are giving too.

In fact, the clip of Bruno and kdb are almost the same in terms of quality chances for teammates, so if you can laud kdb, I expect you to laud Bruno too.

Or is it a case of "a person is regarded everywhere else, except his own house" for you?[b]

ChristineC:
assists in itself isn't an absolute statistic like goals scored or interceptions made.
chances created should be a better measure for attacking midfielders.
two attacking midfielders with comparable quality will more likely have varying assist output if one is behind Nistelrooy and the other is behind Eder.

Jodera:
True, most of his passes are either intercepted or under/over hit today. Today he was unusually poor for his standard. AMs has one of the highest intercepted passes, so anytime I see someone slate Bruno for his passes, I'm surprised. Tho some might be reckless or intercepted, but the reward(s) are normally high

That guy that brought that Bruno's highlights for keypasses finish work. Nobody who will watch that is not supposed to slate Bruno for "blocking" attackers goals

BARAJ92:
Really, so sterling, Aguero and Jesus don't miss chance. Clap for your self

Jodera:
Hmm...
Sure it's same clips we watched?

BARAJ92:
Team strategy and style of play is also a key factor, you don't expect a quality AM in an above average team who is the focal point of the team not to have high chance created than another one in a team that depends solely on team play without any focal point.

In reality, their is always a reason to discard any statistics being use to compare players. Many teams will prefer an attacking player that both score goals and assists.

Android17:
KDB has 3 goals and 16 assists in 26 appearances this season. Bruno has 22 goals and 13 assists in 38 appearances. You cherry picked the stats. Nobody who was not trolling has called Bruno "rubbish". He is most likely going to be voted EPL player of the year. But because Modric won ballon d'or in 2018 (Lewandowski in 2020 essentially) did not mean he is better than Messi and Ronaldo. Awards are determined over a limited time but greatness is determined over an extended period of time.

RRWraith:
A compilation of bruno's sideways passing.

https://twitter.com/ShameIessFC/status/1365369999876055041?s=19[/quote]To god the thunder wey go fire Rashford no be here oo. Bruno would have been counting 20+ assists now in EPL.

Jodera:
Lol... Not saying what you said is wrong tho, but if someone also watch de bruyne today too(the way you watched lingard), the person will think that kdb is one overhyped motherfv**ker. Aside his sumptuous assist, most of his plays and passes was so damn poor and offpoint

afrodoc2:
After 15 minutes you are sure he is not ready and we should go and spend 40-50 million on another player that may or may not be better than what we have got already.

Raphinha scored 5 goals in 22 games in the French league last season. 80% of these players that are looking like ballers under Bielsa might be jeun jeun level.

We should give Amad more minutes this season to show if he is the solution and if at the end we still think we need a RW i would prefer going back to old faithful Sancho.

nani667:
How he wan take ready amidst all that Cluelessness... At one point the whole formation jus turn Calamity... Rashford, Martial, Greenwood, James, Amad all on the pitch at the same time.. Ole casually confusing himself, the players and the masses

#OleOUT

Patrickmuf1:
Nobody is criticizing Rashford or Fred or any player unjustly except maybe Trebor but even he isn't entirely wrong in some of his assessments...

Rashford has delivered the goods in terms of goals and assist but it doesn't tell the whole story, they're aspects of his game he needs to improve as pointing it out shouldn't be mistaken for unfair criticism...

Fred too is sloppy on the ball so I don't see why it is a problem if someone demands that he improves his passing and ball retention...

During the game, Martial at some point dropped into the AMF position to receive the ball but someone here said Martial is taking up Bruno's space when in all honesty, the space was left open as Bruno had moved higher up the pitch. Big teams do it but here it's a problem because it's Martial...A Martial fan in that instance will argue that Martial had to drop deep for lack of supply but that is irrelevant now as we won the game...

Martial won't make those runs behind and even if he does, he gets easily frustrated when the ball doesn't get to him compared to Cavani who will keep making those runs in hope that one time, he will be presented with a chance...I rather if Martial must start he be surrounded with players who are comfortable playing ball to feet with quick passing to create opportunities in crowded spaces and in our team, I can only think of Greenwood, Mata, Bruno and Pogba who can play to his strengths and of the aforementioned, Mata and Greenwood are not guaranteed starters and Pogba is out injured...Cavani and Rashford are ready to make those runs and are very direct in their play thus if Martial can't fit in, he should be drooped for Greenwood who has more to his game...

As the season goes on, your favorite might be criticized and when it happens, you will need not be emotional about your response as Doc preaches...

izzou:
[color=royalblue]You think it's by distance covered that makes a player great?

Watch ball, you no gree [/color]

DeadPresidents:
Last last, for this life everybody get who dem hate.

Trevor hates Bruno, Leyqute hates Rashford, I can't stand Martial.

If Rashford was unavailable for selection for just three matches, you'll see the kind of 'fantastic' goal records we'll have for those three matches.

No go blame your useless defenders for how your club keep bottling important matches, keep blaming Rashford for missing chances he mostly created by movement and positioning.

afrodoc2:
I am not comparing o. I just noticed what you said that he misplaced SEVEN SIMPLE passes in the match. O wrong nau!

There was a time people were trying to rope him into one of Maguire's disaster classes i had to defend him. I try not to allow agenda affect my assessment so you should know i am saying this next bit objectively. He is the most careless passer we have in our team. He misplaces passes not because he can't pass the ball but because he is not just bothered to treat each pass as an important action.

There is no one in our team that misplaces simple passes like Fred. Another culprit is Bruno sometimes but at least that one makes up for it with goals and assists and he plays higher up the field. A CM/CDM like Fred should not be that careless with his passes. After studying Fred it appears he actually has good passing ability but is just incredibly careless with the ball.

O wrong nau. O wa too wrong nau.

Trevor012:
Clown at work again

patrickmuf:
I don't just like the guy for anything...

How do you watch this team every now and then and think Bruno is the problem...He doesn't even like Rashford...

He is most definitely a troll...

Expert17:
They should mention just 5 players (U 23 years) better than Rashford in World football.

Expert17:
Please where is Martial

BARAJ92:
Lindelof will start in most of this team including Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal. This teams as shitty defenders when expose.

Trevor012:
You mean he scored a penalty and a mistake that lead to a Goal?

patrickmuf:
You're parents must be very disappointed...

Human life is precious but not that of a robot...You're really stupid...

patrickmuf:
You need help...

BARAJ92:
Can this team cope with injury to Bruno, Rashford, Maguire and Lindelof.

Trevor012:
Nonsense and ingredient. . Modafucka was already asslicking capitalcee when the game was 1:1. Ole will continue to win and you will continue to moan and cry here daily .

afrodoc2:
Amaka should jejely take James off at half time and bring on Greenwood. If at [b][60 minutes [/b]Martial is still invisible he should take him Amad on and move Greenwood to CF.

Joezinho:
And what on earth was Maguire doing heading the ball back into danger rather than out for a corner?

Truly pathetic defending. Ole has to go, because with Lindelof and Maguire we won’t win anything, and he’s unwilling to change that partnership as his first choice.
