TheGunnShow 5,932 Posted July 23, 2021 Lees-Melou and Rupp together means the ball's going through the middle at more pace. Some of Lees-Melou's crossfield balls have come straight out of the Vrancic copybook. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great engine, great pressing and decent passer. The same above, some lovely feet from him again, for someone who you wouldn't regard as technically skillfull he's very, very good on the ball. 5 minutes ago, TheGunnShow said: Placheta's looking very decent. His work off the ball is really good. As an attacking FB option he looks more comfortable than higher up the pitch in the way we play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGunnShow 5,932 Posted July 23, 2021 1-0 after 45 minutes. Looked quite bright there with the odd error. Omo's made a couple of minor schnitzers on the ball. Rupp and Lees-Melou is a really interesting midfield two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And Placheta being about as useful as a chocolate teapot at left back Not sure why the Placheta hate, he’s been neat and tidy all game. People just seem to have it in for him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,198 Posted July 23, 2021 Looking a bit more fluid with a back four as more options in midfield. Placheta looks ok in no mans land but further forward and as an out and out defender I'm not so sure. He's ok part of a back 5 as wingback although not Premier League quality.

keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted July 23, 2021 It looks as though we have adjusted to losing Emi. You can't replace him so bring in players who have some of his assets. Melou looks the man to slide the ball through to Pukki and Rashica looks the man to take them on. I think we have gained pace from last season. Not bothered about any mistakes too much. At least it shows they are trying things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
