Current stats this season(no living in the past, this is what these players are now) but last season tells the same story also if you want to check. Not trying to cause ****, but it's something that's come up on here recently and thought people might be interested. This idea he's not good enough to get in our midfield or that Tonali and Guimareas are on another level is quite simply false. He creates more, he completes more passes long and short with a higher success rate on short and on par long, he can dribble more with a higher success rate, his pass percentage is higher than Tonalis, on par with Guimareas, he makes more tackles and wins more arial duals... He intercepts almost as many times as Tonali and way more than Guimareas.. Anderson almost wins as many duals as the other two put together. They're all good players, but we put our own players on a pedestal. Tonali Guimareas Anderson
Yet the numbers say differently... He's a top player but not the great player people think he is imo anyway.
How many times has Anderson been dropping back into CB to snuff out attacks and move the ball up the pitch?
I would have (if we could) Anderson in along side Bruno and Tonali. Anderson could sweep up behind them both to create and against the best teams play Anderson and Tonali with Bruno in front. But we can’t. I think Joelintons a liability atm. And of course he is now going to be injured.
T heres rumours we have a buy back clause but I’m not sure. Miley needs minutes mind. And he’s capable and has potential.
I think Joelinton should be rewarded for his service with a 300k a week deal in Saudi, £60m should be enough for Eddie to let go.
