Sadly that could be after 20 mins against a side that plays a first half like Leipzig did.We definitely need a player who can break the press. Else we just lump it long to a striker who is 5ft6. We should have started him and taken off if tired.
Who's he trying to kid?Mourinho said he wasn't overweight two days ago.
They may not have got into that rhythm if we played through them. We were so 0assive and let them settle from the first minute. We couldn't get out. Needed that player in midfield to make them think twice about over committing with their press.Sadly that could be after 20 mins against a side that plays a first half like Leipzig did.
I actually think it may be fitness + attitude. He seemed lazy tonight in his cameo and it’s not the first time. I mean he doesn’t look too happy to track back and help in defence. Probably one of the reasons Gedson was given the nod tonight over him. And why Mourinho still doesn’t trust him at this point. I really hope Tanguy understands what the manager wants from him and bust his ass off because I like him a lot as a player.Fucker doesn't need a fitness program, needs an armed guard stood next to his fridge.
Really does move in a similar way to Dembele, where you kinda already know where he is going to go but you can't really stop it.
If he gets match fit he is going to be a real problem. Shame at the minute that doesn't look likely any time soon.
That’s just a hoax started by the Twiteratti. He looks fine to meMourinho said he wasn't overweight two days ago.

He’s more suited to possession/counter-press style imo.
Ok cool guy. You must know it all :vertna:Lazy?
Gedson was 100pc fit so started. End.
I'd like to play a midfield 3 of wanyama (with 2 knees) gio and tanguy. Would be quality.
I would say on the same level as Silva - Rodri - De Bruyne, but that's mainly because De Bruyne is ridiculously good.Would be the best midfield in the league by quite a margin. Even a midfield 3 of Winks, Ndombele and Lo Celso is top 3.
