An in form Kulusevski provides a lot more energy and covers more ground than Maddison.

Provides more energy? Are you nuts? Kulusevski bumbles about like a fucking turtle n a fucking windsock. Sees less ball, does fuck all to help us transition, creates less, scores less, is fucking much shitter at tracking back and much less tactically disciplined.

Covering more ground is fucking pointless if in doing so you actually do all the footballing stuff shitter.

I feel for Maddison but the Bodo game requires running, tackling and awareness not so much craft but more steel.
However he is the only 'luxury' player we have and he is certainly a miss.

Madison is far from a luxury player, he is the only player truly comfortable taking the ball from our back 5 and being able to turn , drop.a shoulder, control the game and hold it up or pick a pass, he consistently looks to do this and rarely hides, let's see Sarr et al do this, might get away with it against Bodo but final will be a different affair.

Add to the above that Madison is our most creative player, has goals and assists are way above the rest and couple that with Bergvails absence and it truly is a disaster.

Kulu needs a huge turn around in form and work rate to fill either their boots, Sarr is a different player altogether and there is not a lot left after that to help out Bents and Biss who are now automatic starters and we all know how unreliable Biss is, can he hold it together for two games, let's hope so.

I really disagree with your opinion of Kulusevski. He's been poor since Christmas, but when in form he is a brilliant box to box midfielder and does have discipline to track back and cover.

Yep, the guy needs to do much more than he does. He can't move more quickly but he can make himself more available and move the ball quicker.
 
i'd sell him in the summer if there's any interest at all. nice player but always picks up a knee, or muscle injury every season if you look at his history. It then takes him a lot of games to perform to his best .

Very harsh to describe Kulusevski as a plodder. He's been poor since his injury but on form he is every bit as good as Maddison and offers much more off the ball.

I think he looks better when he has someone like Maddison in the team with him, when the onus is on him to be the creative spark he struggles.

He has technical ability but not sure he has the brain/vision for it on his own.
