Laughing at Atletico? Turds like Goncalo Ramos, Kolo Muani or Ekitike have went for similar amounts.
World champion from City for 100M? Doesn't look that bad. Although I agree there weren't many buyers at that time on the market.
One just has to look at his goals to understand. When he has space and time to apply the finish he gets it right(dunno the conversion rate though). When he is pressured like for his third attempt he hits the crossbar or misses the goal.
Has to make a good save all night - Lisan al Gaib!
I'd wager Pope's save from Olmo's shot was harder to pull off than Garcia's for Barne's shot.
All in all a solid performance, but don't see what's "masterclass" or "immense" about that.
First he'll have to learn how to not lose possession by passing directly to opposition players. Last night he lost the ball countless times by either trying some stupid dribble or passing to opposition.
Problem is he needs a lot of control. And Barca are not the kind of club to do these kind of favors to managers. PSG were desperate and played along, don't think he'll get the same freedom here.
Mate, Betis are a nothing team. Some decent showings there are no way comparable to succeeding at United.
Aside from that lad at Napoli, there's no success story after being trash at United. And Even Napoli is not comparable to United.
