    Boxing

    Dillian can man Whyte has pulled out of his fight against Otto Wallin with a fake injury meaning a fight between him and Fury could happen soon before Fury fights the winner of aj-usyk

    Memphis Depay

    He's in bad form. Played nearly 1000 mins and only found 2 NPG. He's not being utilised fully and is playing pretty bad as well with a lot of waste. Needs to step up the real-terms production i.e goals and assists. Although as mentioned above his set-pieces are nice, got an assist vs La Real...

    Yusuf Demir

    He is more of a CAM/wide midfielder that just likes cutting in a lot. It might have worked as a sub in Austrian Bundesliga with lower competition but at a high level if you can't stretch your flank with runs, get the ball down the line and take on the fullback it's hard to be an effective...

    Yusuf Demir

    The way it's looking we may not even activate his buy option (I remember RAC1 saying he had to make 20 first-team appearances?) At this rate he probably won't do that with the injured coming back and especially if Dembele comes back. There's a good reason he came on loan with a 10m buy option...

    Philippe Coutinho

    Seems like every shot he takes is just wide or just over the bar. Every time.

    Yusuf Demir

    What happened to poor Yusuf? Went from starting all preseason, being registered in the first-team and starting in LaLiga and now doesn't even warm up from the bench.

    6 - Gavi

    And he really tries, I like that a lot. He is trying to contribute in any way possible and run as much as possible to help his team so at least he is giving something. But like I said some weeks ago starting him so much at this point in his development will only build bad habits and mold him...

    6 - Gavi

    The only game I have been impressed with his all-around game is Cadiz where I thought he did quite well winning the battles in midfield. But other than that I feel like right now he can only contribute when the team is doing very well, Nico has this problem even much more so. In tough games he...

    Luuk De Jong

    I would take any kid from the B team over this guy right now. They can't be worse and at least they know the club and are on dirt wages.

    Frenkie de Jong

    In total agreement but these are the players we have to rely on. All our players are weird hybrid guys and we have no clearly defined roles. Coutinho, Griezmann, FDJ, Depay, it is not clear what roles these guys play when they play. Our profiles in the squad are very poorly balanced. We have way...

    Frenkie de Jong

    It seems like all of our midfielders are like this tho. Fdj, pedri, gavi, busi, all guys who don't make many threatening actions and just circulate the ball. All of them combined have 0 goals this season. There's no threat of a shot from any of our midfielders so it's really predictable we just...

    Luuk De Jong

    Well there's a reason he failed in every top league. Discarded at Gladbach, discarded at Newcastle, discarded at Sevilla, now probably discarded here, he doesn't have the skills to play in a top league. He might have the attributes to get on the end of a cross (height, size, jump) but doesn't...

    Luuk De Jong

    We don't play a style of football that suits these players. Things like crosses or long ball football are not used in this team so when you put relegation Laliga level target men who only know how to do one thing up front for this club they will look like 4th division quality. Luuk De Jong is...

    Luuk De Jong

    Luuk De Jong and Depay combined have played 1407 minutes and totalled 3 NPG. That's an average of a non-penalty goal every 469 minutes from two forwards combined. It is clear to me the issue is in chance creation and in the strikeforce. Depay is not a real 9, he's a winger or second striker...

    10 - Ansu Fati

    Big trust from Fati and Pedri to sign off on 1 billion release clause, long-term, relatively low pay deals.

    Frenkie de Jong

    For me Frenkie has not improved much since he signed and that's worrying. When we signed him the intention and impression was we'd develop him into a world-class elite midfielder, as he was young, but now even with plenty of top-level experience and harder league competition he wouldn't get in...

    6 - Gavi

    Not a great game. Against the mid table opponents it's easier to carry a youngster that isn't doing very well and hide their flaws but against the top teams it would be better if we looked for a more permanent solution in midfield for when or if he develops into a top player in the future. Need...

    La Liga | Round 8: FC Barcelona - Valencia CF 3-1

    Terrible clearance from Gavi but this is what happens when you force the manager to rely on 17 year olds. They're going to have lapses in concentration.

    La Liga | Round 8: FC Barcelona - Valencia CF 3-1

    What a terrible keeper Ter Stegen is. I'm not saying I expect him to save every good shot but it gets to a point now where all the opponent has to do is shoot on target and it's a goal. He doesn't add any value.
