Sandro Tonali Official

Missed most of second half thankfully but just from memory in that first half Savio and Gray had good chances and they weren't the only two. We could have easily been 2 up at half time and no one would have questioned it whatsoever....

I think it’s football that looks nice
But it has no edge, not pace and clearly no threat
People can call out opinion but the data and the goals scored column shows the issues
I like RdZ but I think he is being incredibly stubborn in his team selection to get certain players on the pitch over getting an effective team out there
That’s again, just my opinion

Yeh, I dont look at us and think we are massively unlucky, not to the levels of woe be me I keep seeing.

No way I am giving up, but just calling what I have seen

They weren't guilt edge though, keeper made some camera saves.

And given we spent 185m on it ............................... jeez

Fernandes looks like he will become a world class midfield maestro but whilst Tonali is clearly an upgrade on the likes of Gallagher plus young Bergvall and Sarr I still cannot fathom the logic in splashing out a club record fee on him when we already had reasonable options in that department.

Not when we’re so desperately lacking at CF position and especially when it’s clear from RDZ’s recent comments that he’s known for a while that Richarlison wanted out plus Solanke is well short of match sharpness.

Because we need that quality now, not in 5 years time with no actual guarantee that those players will make it to that level. I absolutely disagree that the midfield we had was good enough, the previous 2 years very much showed that not to be the case.

I don't think the issue is Tonali's ability, hes actually played reasonably well. It's down to how we've used him and set up the rest of the midfield. RDZ I have to say has gotten that wrong imo. It might be necessitated from his POV by injuries but the balances have been wrong.
