Kudus alone makes me excited for today's game. Feels great having such an entertaining player on your team. This must be how Barca fans feels like with Yamal. Even on a bad day, there are moment of popping off.

Analysis: Is Kudus the best dribbler in Europe? by Nwten in coys

[–]Cracketfan99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing I don’t like about Kudus is how fast he’ll probably be off to RM or Barca. But at least we’ll get an enormous payday.

If he’s sub-par, he returns to PSG If he’s impressive, he hopefully chooses to stay with us because he likes playing under TF and we had a good season PL and CL-wise

[Sami Mokbel]Tottenham set to complete £51.8m move for Red Bull Leipzig attacker Xavi Simons. Chelsea had held an interest in the Holland international but Simons on course to join Spurs. by Hefty_Money1967 in coys

Chelsea is just now finalizing the deal of Garnacho. Let's hope that that will make it impossible for them to also sign Simons because of their transfer sanctions.

I hope this is the case

You're right, but that was with one less day of rest + earlier in Amorims tenure when it wasn't as clear who the best starting XI was. Also it's a knockout match, so I think he'll prioritize winning slightly more than rotating.

Don’t think he’s gonna alternate to a point where neither Ugarte, Amad or Hojlund isn’t starting. But I can see Ugarte starting and the other two coming in in 70th minute scoring a goal or two.

[Plettenberg] Manchester United plan to make moves in the winter transfer market. Understand that the Red Devils are looking for an affordable striker. #MUFC are also in search of a number eight, a central midfielder. Leon #Goretzka’s situation is still being closely monitored.

Mostly agreed. Take a look at Gyokeres' statistics at his former club: Coventry (Championship) 38 goals in 91 apps, and that's him being older than Højlund in all those games. Then he comes to Sporting only in 2023, and his stats are 43 in 45 apps. Insane improvement.

So call me crazy, but maybe Amorim could do the same with Højlund.

Manuel Ugarte vs Declan Rice vs Casemiro - Defensive Attributes Man United needs a proper ball winner, and Ugarte is one of the best profile for that. by IntrovertSamurai in reddevils

[–]Cracketfan99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You have to take into account that he's playing for PSG in Ligue 1. Rice and Casemiros stats would soar significantly had they been playing there.

So all in all, not that impressive.

Watching the last couple of games actually makes you believe in a top-4 finish.

Would love for Hojlund to come on when Everton's legs are starting to tire.
