Dont try to shift the goalposts now.You very well know what i said.You have basically admitted that in your following post we'll be 'less dangerous' with Mandzukic on counters which is precisely my point because our improvements in our counter attacking game is what got us to a final.
That assist(which was off Kimmich's error) isnt any indication that we'd be dangerous on the break with Mandzukic than compared to what Morata brings to the table.

Sorry i cant read minds, only whats written down. If you meant something else you should have said so.
Morata is a one man counterattacking army, there isn't a single CF that can replicate what he does, so ofcourse we will lose a deadly weapon. But we can still be dangerous on the counter with Mandzukic on the team which is why I said your original statement was wrong

Yeah, he had a serious injury like one or 2 months ago... but i hope he will be given a chance in the team. His phisycality and technique is something we would surely use. Im just hoping he will recover on time for some of the preseason at least.
Missing Morata´s and cuadrado´s pace is a serious blow. IM just hoping that we will have some counterattacking play in our new future line up...beause ill miss for sure those 2 running at the opposition.

When you try to deny the obvious you succumb to semantics and corny ass jokes lol. He made that assist by using one of his strengths aka pressure and win the ball high against a carefree and sloppy Bayern defense (Neuers fault mostly), how is that an indication of him being good/ideal for counters? He is a target player, he can try to bulldoze his way through defences on some counters but usually he is NOT remotely good at it, he is more adept of playing lay offs or heading/receiving long balls. He is pretty much lacking when he has to run into space with speed with or without the ball, and doesnt the technicality to dribble his way out of trouble in such quick counters either.
He generally been little more useful team player/well rounded then Morata, but if there is a HUGE drawback for us in using him instead of Morata in CL then that is 100% the counters. Alvaro litterally kills at such a scenario while Mandzu is just barely average at it. On that aspect alone it is an issue and CLEAR drawback to downsize our strength in it(especially more so when we arent the ball dominating type of team in big games, need all the advantage we can get on counters). Even Zaza is better at this despite his awful first touch.

100%good/ideal on counters 
i stopped reading there, maybe you should read what I disagreed with Xperd about 1st. He said Mandzukic is an issue on counters (later said he didn't mean it that way), which is the part I disagreed with. So unless you think our team will have issues to counter with Mandzukic on the pitch dont waste my time please

As I said, he could be use as Simeone used Torres this season with Griezmann cutting out.
We should use Dybala and Berardi, both have good first touch and great mid-distance shot so It should work well against any UCL team

Specially if we really get some masche/pjanic/Gomes players, our MF would be years ahead of Atletico
