You got more than that ladLooking forward to this kick off.
Few beers, clean sheet, a winner from our new young lad Martial and I'll be set for the weekend.
Ironically, we weren’t even clinical. Our xG was still 5.31 and we still underperformed that (our pen was .79)well that was easy

Not his biggest fan but looks like Rice is the main target. He would defo compliment Casemiro though.Still remember how sudden the casemiro signing happened and how it all looked like a dream. We spent all summer debating suitable DMs and would’ve take Case over any single DM we brought up but I didn’t even think it was realistic. ****, it almost seemed as realistic as bringing in Pedri (speaking to existence anyone? lol). That said, we do need a ball carrier partner along side him. The perfect player that would fit this would be Pedri but, barring some miracle, it isn’t happening.
Who rice? Casemiro does everything rice does but better. Why would we want to buy an expensive backup?Not his biggest fan but looks like Rice is the main target. He would defo compliment Casemiro though.
Eh, not quite. Rice is more of a box to box. He's really good at progressing with the ball and more potent in final third.Who rice? Casemiro does everything rice does but better. Why would we want to buy an expensive backup?
Gavi is quite similar to Bruno. I’d say Pedri is more of what we need: incredibly press resistant, insane close control, rarely ever gives the ball away and superb decision making. He’s the glue we need to not just control games better but link the defense with attack properly. He’d be a proper compliment to Casemiro in every way.I'd personally love someone like Gavi honestly.
Is he any better at carrying the ball than McTominay?Yeah Rice defo isn’t a pure DM like Casemiro. He has to be that way at WH because their team would crumble without his discipline. But he thrives on carrying the ball and his passing is actually underrated I actually he can go up levels surrounded by better players and a better system. Myself inc. Him, Mount and Rabiot would be very good upgrade to our CM options.
Think we might need them looking at our home grown quota and how many of them will be leaving this summer.I mean it's straight out of Fergie's playbook to try and secure best English players.
