I still donāt get this TAA love-in. Heās a disaster at the back. He has a good cross but his primary purpose is to defend and heās not very good at it.
Heās a major weaklinkā¦ TBF, he was a midfielder all his life
it isnāt. Full backs arenāt defenders anymore. His primary purpose is to overlapā¦ create space for Salah, join in the attacks, be an outlet (heās very good at it). he fills a space at the backā¦ full backs for possession based teams arenāt defenders.
Full backs for Burnley and the like are defenders
While I agree, his positioning and instinct when defending is poorā¦
He should be capable of basic defending and heās not.
thatās harsh. Salah gives fuck all protection down that side. Henderson covers a bit, when heās fighting fires in the middle, TAA is told to tuck in. A quick switch and heās one on one. With a winger in 10 yards of space.
I think heās a fine player. And heāll get much better.
Heās learning alright. Iāll give him that much.
De gea isnāt injured.
why would De Gea be discussed in the Liverpool thread?
You said the best keeper in the league is out for six weeks.
Is Ederson injured?
Yes, he is out for 6 weeks as has been discussed above.
Itās his lack of awareness as to whatās happening around him. Heās too much of a ball watcher. Salah actually allows him the space to look better going forward than he actually is. He has a good cross but other than that I see nothing to justify the hype.
he can score from a free kick. Heās very very quick, heās young. Heās comfortable taking the ball in tight spots and has played in some very big games at a very young age.
he is quality mate
Can happen the best of us. The calving jack is an essential really.
Iām a townieā¦ is that a rural joke?.. itās lost on me mate
*edit, Iāve just seen @myboyblue liked so itās a rural joke.
Shur didnāt Sean O Brien rip a calf in two once, nasty business.
A moo calf or a muscle?
A baba moo cow.
Christ, anyway. TAA, yay or nay?
