Fumbling is when he starts Gray again as your #6 after he played as RB at midweek with Biss purposefully rested for that game because he's fully deserving to start against Palace after scoring in the last league game against spammers.

Well obviously I wasn't asking him to play anybody in back to back games, and not today- Gray would need to be rotated in sanely in the context of his other starts/minutes, but yea I think he deserves to have a crack at our #6 spot in the wake of neither Bissouma or Bentancur showing much consistent form there.Fumbling is when he starts Gray again as your #6 after he played as RB at midweek with Biss purposefully rested for that game because he's fully deserving to start against Palace after scoring in the last league game against spammers.
Bentancur came on with 3 mins to spare. All it amounted to was a last minute desperate move to get a more fwd-minded player on.
I'm not sure him instead of Gray wasn't indicative of anything today.... Certainly nothing pertaining to who's the best #6.
You yourself said Biss was "excellent" in his last game; so why would he have dropped him for Gray? ...Especially cos Gray had yet to start there for us.
Did not get to watch the match live but I have to say that goal line save was absurd.
Picked that thing right out of the corner. Put a goalkeeper in that same position and the keeper isn’t making the save.

Biss could be enormous for us, like game-changer material, his talent is unquestionable. It's up to our head honcho to figure out how to put him in the best dispositions, and it's up to Yves to stay fit & focused.
For a variety of reasons we've only ever seen bits of what he can do, but I sure hope we can get the whole package before he moves on.

Anyone notice him race down the tunnel to support the tearful Van Der Ven when the Mickey came off? We have some good teammates in our squad. Need to add three elite players to the mix. Mind you this has been true for years.
Top class, think somebody said it in the match thread but it's as important as scoring a goal.

Keeper owes him a drink, not sure what he was playing at there.
Vic needs to stay off the drink based on that clip
He has been great the whole season.
Great show from him in the second half
I dunno, I haven't seen him play like that since the start of last season. Last night, he took the game by the scruff of the neck like he did when the new manager arrived. He's play well this season, don't get me wrong, but last night was another level and here's hoping we see more of that
I though he was crap for most of he game until Gala ran out of legs. Totally unable to impose himself on the game, albeit not helped by having Maddison and Bergvall being complete ghosts.
3 times he gave the ball away by trying to dribble out of trouble instead of making a simple pass. I know Madders was as much to blame as him but awful first half.
When they tired and he had space he made a few good tackles and passes.
I thought he was horrible in possession. Playing out from the back he should be the main guy starting off our build up play and he was either anonymous or giving the ball away. A few nice dribbles in the last 10 minutes doesn't change the outlook on that performance for me.
Him and Bentacur are both inconsistent unfortunately
