Delphinho123 Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Having an excellent season along with McGinn, Watkins, Mings and Konsa. Solid contender for POTS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Didn't have any particularly stand-out moments on Tuesday but he's just playing so effortlessly well at the moment. Always thought he was a quality player but his consistency and ability to take a stranglehold of more or less every game he plays now has been something else. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Your Round Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Douglas ‘Pirlo’ Luiz has been fantastic under Emery. I can’t believe (I can really) that the last ‘manager’ left him out at the start of the season. I’m so glad the club stepped in and refused to sell him to Arsenal, I’m sure the ‘manager’ would have. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not to too fussed personally though, I quite like our players spending the international breaks at BMH with Professor Emery. But I get that’s important to the players.

All these highlights are stand out moments. The fact he makes everything look effortless proves how much of a standout player he is. He's tip top in everything he does, technically smooth, composure, awareness, passing range, positioning..... he's even got that bloke strength he lacked. He's getting better all the time just as I knew he would. One of the best players to watch in the PL at the moment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 It’s hard to notice what he does to fans unless you’re playing against him - he always finds space (albeit a fraction slower than Boubs we’re talking milliseconds) and his passing between the lines is always crisp and precise. I always found comments about him being passive and a side to side passer laughable. Those ten yard passes forwards which may not look like much actually open the game for us by taking out 2/3 defensive players. The guy is becoming world class. Exquisite. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those ten yard passes forwards which may not look like much actually open the game for us by taking out 2/3 defensive players. The guy is becoming world class. Exquisite. Always been a big fan of Dougie. I think the problem pre-Emery is that he was playing a different game to the rest of the midfield. He's always been looking to play the quick pass, make the little lay-off to make space, find room and then look for the next option. The problem was that the rest of the midfield weren't looking for those same passes / trying to find space and were instead trying to get the ball forward a quickly as possible. The fact that Emery has got (almost) the whole midfield and defence to show for the ball and play a similar game is just allowing Luiz to play his natural game and show how good many of us thought he was on the ball. At the same time Emery has also got the midfield (even McGinn) chasing back and tracking their players which means that in defence Luiz isn't outnumbered 2 or 3 to 1 which was the case in the past. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
