Needs to go back to the diamond. Don't know whats possessed him to think two man midfields are the way to go.

He needs to put an end to playing this midfield light set up that we're currently using. When Madrid stopped showing us any sense of respect we did a terrible job of building the play. Seriously, we need to get to a point where we can match Madrid and Bayern on the ball. Fact is, our squad in...

I was thinking more along the lines of Kovacic and Sanchez.

As I said, we need real quality in the side. We are getting by on organization and tactics, and not talent. The problem with that is we are bound to bump into a team that has all of that including the talent. We need real quality this summer. Midfielders who can handle the ball under pressure...

best in the world by far

Just give him the no10 already.

We do but won't cause apparently the football world is filled with blind people.

imo we have the best tactician in the business but is hampered by an inability to field a team filled to the brim with absolute quality players. We always have holes in our team and while squads are important, the strength of your first 11 is what wins the biggest trophy of them all. We have so...

well, that's how the best defenders in the world are expected to defend vs the best attackers in the world. At least that's how they should be expected tp perform.

That's just it, he's just a solid defender, nothing more, nothing less. I expect us to have better than just solid. I prefer my defenders to be great defenders first and foremost. I mean, any time he was asked to show some great one on one defending vs barca he made a mess of it. - - - Updated...

Do me a favour, watch the Dortmund/Monaco tie today and note all those attributes you claim Higuain to be better at him at, and see if your opinion is the right one.

Nope, he's just not as good as him at a lot of things. If for example, I asked you to compare post injury Ronaldo(when he was playing as a pure CF) Trezeguet, you would've concluded that the latter was worse than the former in almost every category, however no one would've said he's poop in...

1. But having watched Higgy through his career, you know it was an anomaly rather than the norm. before that he wasnt doing that, and this season he still isnt doing that. Moreover, he hasnt done anything in the CL that suggests he's a bonafide hitman. 2. Obviously that's where we disagree...

Scoirng- nope, Mbappe is genuinely lethal. Only reason Higuain has bigger numbers is because he's played more this season as they don't want to overwork the youngster in Monaco. Strength? Nope, Mbappe is one of the strongest forwards out there. holding the ball under pressure? Nope, Mbappe is...

Really? what is Higuain better than him at?

Swap Higuain with Sanchez and then sign Mbappe. Now that would be a classic mercato.

Never heard of a top notch striker that makes a mess of his biggest chances in the biggest matches.

Nope. its Marcelo who is comfortably worse than Sandro and Luis.

Never been a fan of his defending. He's really lucky to have played in such organised units.

Still our best defender. Bon Bon might be a better footballer, but as a defender he's never been a beast. What a performance.
