For me, Moreno's big problem is over-enthusiasm and (presumably) the lack of wit to know when to rein it in. He's too keen to go bombing up the pitch before his defensive duties are complete. He has talent, but he's too rash.
Agreed hence why we need to protect him as much as possible. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Milner on his side to shore it up. Mane is good defensively as well but he’s most likely won’t be starting. As long as have VVD next to him, I’m happy.
That's a good point on Milner. firmino might be lw or shaqiri so it's quite important to balance that
Funny thing but I reckon if he matured abit and maybe a knock to the head miraculously increased his iq to double figures he'd make a good full back. The lads got all the physical attributes to be great, it's a shame he's a ****ing idiot.
Maybe. But i think the point being made is its better to rest them against burnley than bournemouth or napoli. Why moreno was mentioned for this game.
I agree (apart from the spelling, obviously). Why should Virgil have to do someone else's job for them? Burnley might be struggling at the moment, but there's always the possibility that they can hurt us. We shouldn't be carrying passengers or expecting one player to cover for the inadequacies of another unless there is no alternative.
Underestimate Burnley at your peril. Bottom clubs are very difficult to play especially towards the end of the season.
I just want to see Bobby either up in the 9 position or not playing. He's so out of sorts through not playing in his best position. I know he's done alright still, some assists and link ups leading to goals, but nothing like he was doing last season.
I think all 3 of the front 3 need to see that they can be dropped when in poor form. At the moment Mane, Salah and Bobby don't have much competition for those starting places and that leads to complacency. Obviously Bobby is the prime target atm as he's in the worst form, but all 3 need it. So Bobby to sit out tonights game might be for the best, reward Origi for working hard against Everton.
That’s a lot of changes. Koop is really utilising his squad this year. I know they’ve not hit form but I don’t like the fact that we’ve got none of salah, bobby and mane starting.
