GWT: PL Matchweek 24/25

[Il Mediano]

Higuain is a vastly superior player to Morata. If he's fit, it's not even close.

I hope Morata figures it out in Spain, because there is talent in the guy. It was just clear London was a poor fit.

But honestly, if you want to compare players like they're spreadsheets, you'll get it wrong so,so often. You have to consider endless variables when projecting how a player will do with a new club.

Higuain is one the best strikers of his generation. Full stop.

 

[Jussi]

Rashford!

 

[Cassano]

Do people out there still really believe guys like SMS are better than Pogba?

 

[Evilo]

That Pogba - > long pass to Rashford combo has been deadly.

Do people out there still really believe guys like SMS are better than Pogba?

If this board has taught me anything... yes, yes they do.

That aside, SMS has bags of potential. Started pretty slow this season , but he's been coming around lately.

I'm still undecided as to where I think his ceiling truly is, tbh. I need to see more.

 

[maclean]

Damn you, De Gea!

 

[Cassano]

Need a goal? Let's take off our 10

 

[Cassano]

Why is Barnes always doing that backheel move to Vardy? They never work lol

 

[maclean]

What a free kick, De Gea is an unfair advantage

 

[Cassano]

Emery the clown strikes again.

 

[Jussi]

It wasn't pretty at the end but I'll take the 3 points.

 

[Evilo]

Nothing to add? About individual performances?

Nope. Players were getting really tired towards the end which has been a somewhat worrying trend. I hope rotation has worked and they've got energy reserves for the coming weeks.

SMS was mugged off by Xhaka in the World Cup. He's been pretty terrible this season overall relative to expectations. It is reminding me of the Belotti hype people had a few years ago as well.

 

[Evilo]

Lol OK.

 

[Venkman]

That Pogba pass and Rashford first touch. After that it was pretty poor.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Iwobi is an idiot.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Arsenal are so freaking bad defensively...

 

[Cassano]

Good thing we started Iwobi over Ramsey

 

[Cassano]

Shaping up to be another 6-0.

 

[Burner Account]

Has Arsenal touched the ball other than kicking off after City scored?

Now they have

1-1 Kos!

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Well now

 

[Evilo]

That Pogba pass and Rashford first touch. After that it was pretty poor.

Pogba in the ET was huge. At some point he dribbled 4 guys and got a foul out of nothing.

I definitely remember a ton of hype about SMS on this board from a certain few posters who like to point out others' mistakes. Can't say I've watched him much but the hype seems to be dying out.

United are in a good way atm and it certainly helps having de Gea to inspire confidence as well. Will be interested in seeing them vs. PSG.
