Most peoples concerns are the push for a CL place.

Lost VDV til potentially January so backlines dodgy. Lost our creative engine for ???. And that’s during a really tough run of games.

Then in January we lose Sarr/Biss who’ve been running the midfield for AFCON, and Son for the Asian cup.

Could be a really derailing run of results from here til February.

The Haaland/VDV battle is gonna be genuinely fascinating

Mad how unstressful balls like that are when you see Van der Ven running after the player

Always clenching when something like that VDV possession loss happens with the backline, but the move immediately afterwards reminds me why they persist with it. When it comes off got the potential to be so dangerous.

Sad story when you consider how good he was pre head injury

Surely if the players just stop, you give up on the advantage and pull it back? The advantage is meant to be, you know, an advantage to the attacking team.

Manifested it mate

If this goes down like any of Skipps other appearances so far, he’s gonna constantly make overlapping runs on the right and just never get given the ball.

Richy and Kulu have dropped so far back this half, impossible to get the ball to stick up front.

Obviously part of Ange’s tactics in general but love how quickly Vic gets play going after a goalkick or catch.
