MLS and Gabby start. So bench options to attack include our Italian Libero

[redgunamo]

Yeah, we are doing ok against a good side. Would still like to see us be a little more creative in the central areas.

Raya is ****ing useless. **** hasn't made a single save for 2 and a half games

Agreed. At least he is TRYING to make things more exciting

I?d like to see Calafiori as opposed to young Skelly out there tonight. He?s a good prospect but the Italian is more accomplished with the greater threat imo. We miss his height for those set pieces too.

Funnily enough..... I was kind of thinking that MLS was acting as a useful distraction at set pieces. He is stirring up trouble and provoking opponents when actually he is no real threat.

Hasn't really worked so far.

In fact, it makes no sense if everyone is fit. Waste of money.

The whole point of it is to cope with injuries.

The whole point is to improve. Otherwise, THEN it's a waste of money.

Saka is really developing, isn?t he? Seems to be our leader now. So good even with three on him. So strong.

Lovely to see him thriving.

Well said. Just hope he doesn't get carried away.

That one aged well.

Brilliant work for the second goal. That is what he gives us. Unpredictability and speed.

He's also a born trouble maker

That assist was stunning. 2-3 around him just inside our side of the centre-circle and he beats them, charges forward and plays a perfectly weighted ball?

He's still only 18 or so, isn't he?

We have to keep rotating those two. We can't let one go rusty or become downhearted. They're both gonna have to accept it and know that if one starts a final, the other 100% comes on.

PS: MLS-Dec-GabbyGol-Eze-Vik for the third. All did something tasty to make that.

Btw, another reason I'm gutted Ricky C was offside on Saturday. Cos if that goal had been onside and counted, we could have looked at Leo's assist for Ricky, and MLS for Gabby tonight and wondered which was the better LB-LW combination goal.
