Bürki is fucking terrible, and that’s why we’re gonna smash them
Thing I've noticed about Sommer is that he is prone to errors.
Absolutely brilliant shot stopper and his reflexes are outstanding. He's shown as much to the world during international tournaments but he has that error in him which can cost you. Its probably why he's at Gladbach and not a bigger club.
I've mentioned him loads in various places throughout the season, but Pepe was outstanding again on Friday for Lille, great goal and two great assists. This boy is going to be the next big thing out of Ligue 1 IMO.
For a team as bad as Huddersfields, this is mightily impressive.
Imagine if he had GOOD players to pass to?
You could read that the other way though, those passing stats aren’t terribly impressive, and it’s hard to know if that’s down to him or influenced by those around him.
Huddersfield are a team that do see a reasonable amount of ball in many games (9th best for possession), but he’s not seeing much and his completion rate is piss poor.
He's quite high up on here.
I see your guy Ibrahim Sangare is too!
Sangare has some potential but is nowhere near ready to play at our level, he's too erratic still and makes too many mistakes with the ball.
Next prospect out of Toulouse will probably be Amian, 20yo right back.
Here's a new one to add to the mix. Top 5 prospects in each position that you know of at lesser clubs than ours. Good to keep an eye on how these boys work out with a lot of ins possibly needed in the not too distant (trying to keep them all relatively young)

It's better than Tripps.
Guingamp is an interesting growing ground for talent. It's a very small town with a fair bit of travel to the nearest big city. So very few distractions for the the players
Haven't seen odegaard play for ages and caught a part of the Heerenveen game tonight, looks to have matured a lot. Works hard, no primadonna stuff ...
Great goal by Edwards who was quite good too.

Doesn't he play for Vitesse nowadays?
lol obviously he does, hadn't even noticed I wrote that
I d add Tielemans to the CM list, he s had a hard time at Monaco but is growing back to form, only 21 years old and almost 200 pro games. Can't see any other big Belgian talent coming through the ranks atm. Maybe Vanheusden at CB
Ass to mouth? What does that have to do with anything?
Morgan Gibbs-White (18) as well imo. Wan-Bissaka (21) and Bergwijn (21, PSV) are also very interesting and young players.
Some good young CB's on the pitch in the Leipzig/Dortmund game tonight. Konate (19) looked very good, Upemecano (20 - Great name) good too, and Abdou Diallo (22) left footed CB looks very good too, having a good season.
