Makes a huge difference when shelvey isn't dropping back to play sweeper, that with Hendrick tucking inside gave us an actual presence in midfield to build off of, ASM didnt have to try to dribble out from lb, also Joelinton I thought was quality, seems to have so much more confidence with Wilson in front of him, can actually see him bagging some goals soon if he carries on this form.
Agreed With you on Joelinton until the point where you said you can see him bagging some goals… Said last night that he does a good job until he gets into the final third, but then he has zero attacking instinct or ability whatsoever.
This. Maybe he could turn out to be a ''Dembele'' for us.. Moussa Dembele (the one from Tottenham) he started as a no.9 / striker then when he went to Fulham he started playing no.10/second striker but Martin Jol moved him into a midfield box-to-box and the rest was history.. not saying Joelinton will have the same success or even half the success Dembele did with Spurs but if he improves his strength, tackling, passing & technique you never know.. try him out in a box-to-box role alongside Hayden? :bandit: <whistle>
