CHAMPION'S LEAGUE - Maribor (A) - Pre Match

[Fabio]

But once again, I've tried to be rational, and I've took the bait.

Stupid mark

Lucas had his knee, but Henderson hasn't had a litany of injuries? Generally when he builds up a head of steam

Henderson isn't a defensive mid. Lucas had the grace of 5 years before he hit his stride in that position, in spite of working with some our greatest midfielders in recent memory. Henderson had a waning Gerrard and that's it.

So, Henderson has been dm for 2 seasons, both of which were curtailed by injury. Whereas lucas had 5 uninterrupted, then got injured, and never got back to that 6 month level.

We don't compare Henderson to other midfielders because there's little point. They are better. And what? Could compare every one of our players to someone else and they'd be last. De bruyne pisses over Coutinho from a great height, as does silva. And that's just man city. Mane and salah are arguably the only ones you could say could be the best in the league (but again thats subjective).

Yeah it's subjective, but Coutinho is a terrible example.
And Lucas still is a better DM than Hendo ever was, and ever will be.

So, the match

Do we have a weinstein at the club oxo refused to blow? Lad needs to start again soon

Disagree with both points.

Henderson has it in his locker to be just as clumsy and attack stifling as lucas was at his peak

He needs to earn that right..

Sure our midfield leaves a lot to be desired but he's not shown anything to suggest he's anything like a solution.

At least with his pace ,he can have some sort of impact as a sub

 

[Fabio]

Ultimately we need better.

I want him on the wing. Playing salah week in and week out while mane is injured is suicide.

If salah gets injured then the pressure will be on oxo A LOT more. And it's already heaped on.

I was hoping Frankie would get the nod over Firmino this evening.

Ah well, difficult tie this, let's hope we can arrest the strong of draws with a win tonight.

Well guys if we don’t win these then we don’t deserve to progress but I’m sure we’ll do them.
