St Maximin, Sarr, Bissouma
Would make us truly scary!
Those first two, along with captain Salah, made my fantasy team pretty scary!!

Rapinha would need to add more goals to his game but St Maximin looks ideal as a wide forward for us.
As a future midfield Gallagher, Bellingham, Bissouma. That would be something to behold!
I know. Only chance is he goes somewhere else and we go in one year later

Yep. Like with Camavinga- we’ll sign him once he realises he did the wrong thing in joining Madrid.
Gallagher, Camavinga and Bellingham in a couple of years’ time, once our current stars have aged? Nice.

Leon Bailey didn’t look half bad.
Elliot and Jones never seem to make it into our future midfield. Odd.

I’ve seen very little of Toney, the Brentford forward and it’s hard to judge a player on just one game, but he looked quite good yesterday. We’ll have to be very careful with him next Saturday.

The midfield above is for our B team.
Fabinho, Elliott and Jones is the midfield for the first XI.

Surely that can’t be right.
No CRonaldo or Pogba in top spot, must be fake news
You can’t see it clearly unless you enlarge the image but Trent’s lead over everyone else is not even close.
Trent 0.77 xT per 90
Jarrod Bowen (2nd place) 0.59 xT per 90
There is the same gap between Trent in 1st and Bowen in 2nd as there is between Bowen in 2nd and Alonso in 10th.

As if Ronaldo creates for anyone…
He creates a hell of a lot for Murdoch and the rest if the scumbags that own news organisations
Fati, like Pedri, is already a nailed on first teamer. They lost Moriba recently, but that contract impasse was in large part because he wasnt yet getting games. So Barca didn’t want to pay him that much more yet and he didnt want to sign. In contrast Barca will pay anything to keep Fati because they know he starts ever game he is available for once he gets back to fitness and to replace him would cost significantly more than what they’ll pay him.
The only issue is whether he views the club as too much of a dumpster fire to commit his next 4 years to, and I would read the latest reports about his agents as just being standard posturing during contract negotiations rather than evidence that he does indeed want out.

@Draexnael Interesting that FBs feature so heavily on that list. Possibly a little bit biased due to 3 of ours being mentioned, and so without our quality and approach maybe the trend would be less evident so as to not exist, but it does possibly point to a shift in the way games are approached rather than just being a thing unique to our side. An idea bolstered by the data point not captured there - Milly’s record breaking CL season at LB the year before Robbo signed.

Beast. Featured in every league game since 2016. Doesn’t mean he is very good of course.
Similar to Saul we’ve been linked with him when Brendan was here.
More relaxing to play for Bilbao when you know there’s less games and less pressure (less players who can play for them, etc.).
Joking of course. I’d stay clear of anything from Bilbao unless it’s someone special, which he isn’t. Most of them will be too expensive because of their unique situation.

Jude Bellingham was left somewhat perplexed by Reece James’ guess that he’d rather swap shirts with Frank Lampard over Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard, if given the choice.
