OK, all over red rover, 4th place and CL again. Good result after the nightmare place we started.
Here's my opinion of the most played first team.
Kepa. No good. Send out on loan and sell when appropriate.
Willy Thanks ,but now a bang ordinary #2 at the end of a good career.
Dave Still first pick of defenders, but getting closer to being a "squad" player. Pity he never did become a proper Captain who could drive the team on.Mr dependable who does all we ask of him.
Rudiger Simply exasperating for me. One good game followed by too many mistake ridden ones.
Christensen Never developed. Physically weak, too passive, poor positioning, poor concentration. PL is beyond him, just like Jorginho.
Zouma The best CD we have but desperately in need of a "John Terry" and better players around him
Alonso Not worth 2 bob in a back 4 ,but an extremely good wing back. Age against him, cash in.
Tomori Really difficult to work out. Early form was great but then lack of game time saw him become invisible. Best option is to loan out to an attack minded team , preferably in Europe, to develop his technique.
Jorginho In my book totally unsuited to the helter skelter of PL . Too slow, hopeless defender, too negative and just not physical enough.
RLC Still trying to work out why he's so highly regarded. Never does anything that makes me think Wow, what a player.
Barkley Taxi !!!!!!! Jesus where is that bloody taxi ??
Kante Love this bloke, but he doesn't seem to suit any style of play we adopt. Sell with reluctance
Kovacic Been great all season in a pretty shambolic midfield. Gives us the grit and grunt which we really need.
Reece James His poor defending looked ominous, but big lift recently. Another one suffering from a too often changing set up. One of our big success players.
Mount Not the finished article, but when he doesn't have to do all the midfield attacking himself, looks primed for great things with our new buys beside him. Great work rate, skill and energy, top marks.
Pulisic Best prospect since Hazard. Looks light years better than our other youngsters.
Willian, Gone by the looks of things ,which is a big loss. Probably the best player on our books.
Pedro Great Club man, best wishes at Roma.
CHO Took forever to come back, but now on the way. Think he has a big ego problem which we caved into and needs suppressing. Pulisic and the new players he has to compete with, will make or break him Does he have the talent and fight in him??. Everything to prove and every chance to do so.
Giroud The kind every club needs, just does what he's supposed to do, scores all our goals.
Tammy Abraham Far too concerned with a better contract and more money, but done nothing to earn either.
Big call, but I would sell him, he's learned nothing this season, is always offside, is not physical but hasn't a clue how to play striker when you have loads of talent but a poor football brain. Can't see that changing.
Think that covers it, sorry its so long but over to you.
Really looking forward to opinions.
