I expect them to do good today in possession considering they are only facing Kovacic from classical CM, DM type. KDB and Silva are more AMs and both had zero starts so far in pre season. Just one short sub cameo.
I like how club is proactive and already willing to sell players we purchased recently that didn't turned out good. Madueke, Mudryk, Sterling, Disasi, Badiashile, Washington, Angelo, Moreira and some others... Apparently all available on the market.
Last couple on earth I would thought that would divorce. Everything seemed perfect. Both attractive, always living in best European cities, 4 kids, they had everything... Don't believe in love anymore 💔 😭
Rodri, Walker, Stones and Foden going into this with zero pre season minutes. KDB and Silva without a start. I expect us to use this circumstances and get 3 points.
Things like this happen when you already agree personal terms with other club who desperately want you and you want them. Why would Osimhen refuse to play for them when he basically has no other clubs going for him?
Felix was our best attacker in his short spell of 3 months here. Poch didn't want him and used Sterling and Mudryk as LW. Both had disastrous season. But I don't think we need him now. Neto and Palmer is obviously best pairing you could get in the league. And we have so many players in that position. If we can move Sterling, Mudryk and Madueke that would be different but that's very unrealistic.
So basically Omorodion deal collapsed for some reason and Atletico needs money desperately because of Gallagher and Alvarez deals and we kind of owe them so we just need to take someone else from their squad and Felix obviously is the first one to appear since they are selling him for 2 years unsuccessfully. Looks like we are doing a favor here to Atletico and Mendes more than we actually want him.
