Frenkie de Jong

[Vilarrubi]

4 goals and 2 assists in 7 games in 2021. Mans going for Balon D’or.

We're not an elite side this season by any means but Koeman is getting the best out of Busquets and current day FdJ. Dembele too, to be honest. Can definately admire right now that Busquets has long distance stamina for days and can cover alot of the pitch slowly, so being surrounded with players who can cover his lack of speed (FdJ, Pedri, Araujo) in the central positions is definitely helping him.

Reminds me of when Ancic came in and went to a simpler basic style of play. Brought the best out of Xavi, Kluivert, Saviola LE, Motta and we went on an underrated run (fk'n Zabaleta).

Koeman didn't celebrate after he scored his goal. That's the end of his career.

Underrated comment.

At it this point we can play him as a striker. He is doing a better job scoring goals then the rest. He knows where he should be to score goals compared to those clowns we call forwards here.

It helps that Messi drops deep so that DJ can attack the space that was left behind.

His finishing is really good, better than from Griezmann/Coutinho/Braithwhite

The new Paulinho.

Bookies still offering 8/1 on him to score v Bilbao.

Good value and will come down before kick off.

Busi won't play, perhaps De Jong won't bomb forward as much with Pjanic behind him?

Best midfielder in the world together with De Bruyne and Kimmich?

the level of midfielders is pretty shit right now if those three are the best in the world.

 

[fergus90]

Kimmich is fantastic. Real versatile as well.

You are absolutely clueless and reactionary as usual. Usual old man blabbering, "the grass was greener" innit?

ignore me then.

the current crop of good midfielders and strikers is not of the same level it was in the past.

Kimmich and Kdb would be in every generation awesome but after them and Frenkie i dont see many midfield players on top tevel.
