I thought he was injured in that, had me worried to the bottom of my stomach.

Some on here regarded those as accurate and an asset.
Incredible, isn't it
The Dutch are too funny.
When they were stacked in attacking/creative areas with RVN, VDV, Sneijder, Robben, Van Persie, Kuyt, Huntelaar, Afellay, Babel etc. their best defenders were the likes of Heitinga, Bouma and Bouhlarouz
Now they've got excellent defenders again and the attack has become mediocre.
Would love to pick up Koopmeiners to replace Hojberg or Skipp.
Plays 6 or 8 just as well and can do everything.
Micky has to get past Virgil and Ake to start at LCB. Not convinced he won't end up doing it.
Still have that Roy Keane quote where he said Ange makes the game simple.
When you have 20 year old kids making rotations look like second nature in the first 4 game weeks, he really did make it simple for them to understand their jobs and do them.
Exactly. That’s what dier does and gets destroyed for it and rightly so. Mickey has been unlucky with the two deflected own goals and even Burnley’s second on Saturday.
Who do they usually use @ LB? Could get put there or they move Ake as he does play there for City.
Yeah, that was tenacious and composed. I really liked that. He got his pocket picked, which will hopefully teach him a lesson, but he didn't flap and got up quickly for the pass which was perfectly measured.

He's not the only one. Udogie, Vicario, Maddison, Solomon all hit the ground running.
The transfers under Paratici have absloutely saved us. If these transfers turned out to be duds or even just below average like PEH, we'd be contemplating life without european football for probably 5/6 years at least.
What the fuck has happened to Romero - he's normally murdered at least 4 people by now.
He's certainly rising to his new leadership role.
First bit of defending and carrying was dominant. Got hacked, got up hurt but stuck with it and made a decisive intervention,
That and he was probably frustrated playing next to dross.
I’d guess they go:
RB De Ligt Virgil Ake
Or play 3 CBs like the World Cup
Weird how these days the Dutch are producing good CB's as opposed to forwards, it used to be the other way round.
They must be due one.
Time to start scouting Dutch youth forwards.
He's made very little secret about not liking Conte...... Call it unprofessional if you like; but that's gonna have an impact on a player.
They can pretty much thank van Gaal for that for the way he ruined Dutch development back in the early 00s.
He actually seems to keep looking at and for the ball in defense, not running round panicking.
Watching these clips and the ones on another thread of Alfie Dorrington, they could almost be the same player style wise. Could be we have the CB for January already here.
