Said the same in the Premier League thread. It’s by far our strongest team and if it’s the one we can field for the rest of the season we have a chance.

Close, I'd like to see Davis instead of El Ghazi too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s crazy but to me whatever team we pick it’s one of the slowest in the league. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may be ponderous in terms of decision making at times but at least half our first choice 11 are fairly quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can name 2 or 3 who you would consider PL fast but 6.....who do you think are fast? Not average PL pace but fast? Just curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes an extra three seconds for him to get up to pace so it doesn't really count. Mings has decent recovery pace. I think Grealish is also decpetively quick.

I’ve always seen McGinn as our Go To man when we’re hanging on at the end of a game. He blocks and protects the ball well and has the quality to drive past a few players to get into a safe position away from danger, so I think you’re right, with McGinn in the side, I think we’d have picked up a few more points for sure.

MaVilla Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 to be fair, he wasnt exactly setting the league alight before he got injured, the first few games he was good, but he plateaued a bit before his injury. Hopefully he will raise his level a bit, but all that aside, his work rate and never give up attitude will be priceless for us, we definitely missed his work rate and terrier like attitude, regardless of anything else. We missed his work rate and tenacity in our midfield, no doubt about that, hopefully he can spur a few other players to at least pretend they are trying 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
