Big game from Kulusevski vs. Napoli
I think it's a combination of a couple of things. He left for Italy at age 16 so he never played in Allsvenskan, meaning no hype from the Swedes. Then his breakthrough came as a loanee, where Parma fans know that they don't own him and Atalanta fans know that he's not part of their future.Yep...he’s been slept on tbh haven’t heard much hype about him at all despite his age and performances. Maybe because he plays in Italy but kid’s got skills.
Ihattaren with yet another banger. Holy moly this kid at 17 is unreal.
So happy he's declared for the Netherlands.
He can play across the front but is best at CAM he has great passing and vision for his age. That said I doubt PSV would be willing to move him on right now. They’ll likely build their team around him for the next 2 years unless he forces a move.Do you think PSV would sell him this summer? We are going to need a Sancho replacement, and I’d rather someone like this than some of the names that have been talked about. Can Ihattaren effectively play RW or does he need to play CAM?
Hard to argue he isn’t 2nd choice LB. Milner can’t really do a shift back there anymoreHe's really good and Klopp should use him a bit more. Wouldn't be too surprising if he started for that team.
There's a reason St. Etienne pushed for him to be loaned back for the year. It's like a VvD to Liverpool transformation whenever he plays for them.Saint Etienne in all competitions with and without William Saliba since September 2018, in games where Saliba has been 17 and 18.
- Win percentage
with Saliba : 61%, without Saliba : 36%
- Goals conceded per game
With Saliba : 0.9, without Saliba 1.6
- Clean Sheet percentage
with Saliba: 52%, without Saliba :18%
The man might be the best CB prospect in the world.
