URZZZZ We seem to have a strong spine to the team, which means our more “technical” players are able to fit in, which didn’t seem the case in the last few seasons. Balance between graft and flair is crucial
For example, I’m sure having Rinomhota, Laurent and Morrison around Araruna and Richards are really developing their game and improving them as a player. Wise, knowledgable players who help relieve the pressure
Similarly Joao up top brings out the best in Olise, Ejaria, Aluko etc. Knowing the ball will likely stick to him means those sort of players can make better decisions about where to be etc
Another conundrum next week if Joao is out (and perhaps the foreseeable). Will be big pressure on Puscas/Baldock IMO
Agree. I don’t see Puscas/Baldock offering anywhere near as much as Joao but as you say time for them to step up
