There it is again Rose would lose against Udogie if the Italian was played as an orthodox leftback. If Pochettino coaching Rose to a WC places was on the cards he'd make Udogie into literally three times the fullback. I like Rose as much as the next bloke Udogie is fitter faster better on the ball and if taught to defend would own him. On a broader point I actually worry about the development of Sarr Bergval Udogie with the kind of playground football we are refining. They need to.learn their orthodox positions.While calmer than I was last night, I am still wondering why I hate the team I supported my entire life quite so much and then trying to process this insanity I am thinking about 2015-2019 teams.
Put Son in his place, I genuinely feel that not one other player we currently have would be much of a bench option let alone starting games in that 15-19 period.
Hugo v Vic
Rose v Udogie
Toby v Romero
Jan v VDV
Walker/Trippier v Porto
Bissouma v Wanyama
Eriksen v Maddison
Dembele v Sarr
Ali v Kulu
Kane vJohnson
I recognise I’ve cherry picking a bit, but genuinely can’t see any of our current mob being better or even close to those levels ^. And that’s despite the “game changing” stadium.
Even more arresting that some of our lesser loved bench warmers now start games for us, Davies and formally Dier for example.
if only we kept Steve “I hate doing my job” Hitchens. If only we didn’t buy the wrong Fernandez. If only Dybala didn’t have Only Fans Royalty rights issues. If only Diaz joined instead of Danjuma. If only Jose wasn’t sacked for a man who never managed a first team game in his life. If only Conte’s wig hadn’t fluttered at Southampton…
Oh Mr Chairman
