I mean look at the teams bodo have beaten over their last 37 home games in europe.... yet they'd struggle in the championship?

Jesus christ of course they would. Their wage budget/transfer budget is dramatically lower than top championship teams.

Give Leeds or Burnley a 4k artificial pitch in the tundra and they'd pull off some amazing home results in Europe as well, stop doing this cope stuff.
 
Yes? They only win at home on their cold, plastic pitch.

They'd get fucking murdered in the championship over a full season if they had to play in a normal stadium across the season...

They're basically like if you took a Millwall or Sheffield and made everyone play them away in the freezing cold on an artificial pitch that only they are used to .. they'd get some bloody scalps as well.
 
What happened with Biss last night? Played really well! Why can’t he just switch on week in week out? There’s a player there!

My issue with him has always been his lack of effort and lack of concentration, not his ability

hes a sitting midfielder but not a deep lying playmaker. he breaks up play well and can do some nice stuff on the ball but hes not a controlling midfielder who dictates tempo, he needs that guy sitting with him. if you put a modric next to him hed be regarded as one hell of a CDM.

would look good next to someone like a wharton....someone who can put their foot on the ball and get things going.
 
Biss and rest of our midfield should watch and study Vitinha from PSG play.

Always moving and giving options and angles to keep the ball progressing , quick feet to move ball side to side or back with fewest of touches.
Senses danger before it happens defensively with his positioning and therefore very rarely like Biss has to make a silly tackle.
Throw in can ping a ball too and you got complete midfielder.
I look at our midfield and its lazy or just bad coaching with not doing the hard yards to be available with head up and awareness of where the 2nd and third pass is going.
Bergvall with the right coaching could reach these levels and the shame is if Sarr had better coaching could have been up there too.

£35m bargain


:ange-hmm:
 
if we are to win this whole thing, him being what he was for Brighton and the first half of last season is key.

Hopefully that is purely down to motivation on his part. Motivation to get a big move from Brighton, Motivation to impress Ange after his spurs career was falling off under Conte.
And now motivation to be a champion now it's within grasp.

Can be as influential and unplayable as any player in the squad at his best , we need that
 
Was good tonight.

If we could get him to stay back, cover for the fullbacks when they go forward and never let him shoot, he could make a huge difference to us.
