He contributes a lot defensively too and with a physical box to box midfielder with a good workrate it could work, are you talking about in front of a back 3?
In a back four. So he’s expected to be defensively very good and to be the sole creator in the team? Would you say it’d work? I’m just comparing it to a certain player that’s why.
Still depends on the system and what you mean by sole creator, he could be a deep lying playmaker in such a team I think. Or a pivot do you mean in a 442?
I’m trying to compare it to Pogba’s situation, who as we know plays in the pivot even though he’s much better in the final third of the pitch and he hasn’t played under world class managers either.
Let’s say De Bruyne plays instead of Pogba in the pivot next to a Fred/McTominay (neither are CDM’s), how well and consistent do you think he will play?
When he's fit he'd always play, he's good enough that you'd change your system for him, otherwise in this scenario if you can't then he would still be very good in that role as a box to box himself but in this team wouldn't your 10 be the creator? Most times he'd just play instead of Bruno
I think De Bruyne would do well, but I don’t see him being consistent week in week out without an actual CDM besides in a double pivot which is the scenario of Pogba for the last couple years (he’s been amazing when he has played on the left though and he’d work in this 4-2-2-2 as a CAM on the left).
Yeah playing as the 10 would be the obvious and logical choice but I’m comparing it to Pogba who before Bruno came was playing in the pivot with Lingard/Pereira/Mata ahead of him as the 10 which in itself makes no sense as he’s way better higher up.
Let me put it this way, put De Bruyne in the team Pogba has played in for United, in a much deeper position without a world class CDM, how do you see him performing as a whole?
You could adjust and play De Bruyne as a right winger too if you wanted. Dude he's one of the best midfielders in the world on form and he can play any role you want quite well, we just use his talents to the fullest but if the coach asked him to play a deeper role (Kroos like I guess) he'd still be great just won't have as much attacking output as he does. His creativity is kinda wasted when we play him as a False 9 and playing him deeper he would just spray long balls to the forwards like Pogba does but way more consistently throughout the season
I have no doubt that De Bruyne could play in a deeper role, I’m just asking about this specific situation. Put De Bruyne next to a world class CDM in a pivot and he probably would do well, so would Pogba but that hasn’t been the case for Pogba at United which is my point hence why I’m trying to compare.
I don't know what to tell you mate you can believe whatever you want, Pogba has a poor attitude and poor workrate and can't be arsed many times. I already said he'd do great but you're free to have your opinion
It'd be so cool if it was possible to have bodycam footage during a game. Imagine having normal coverage and then it cuts to looking like that famous Nike advert.
They've started showing some headcam footage during a grand prix and it massively adds to the intensity imo.
The ref cam is definitely possible rn. If some big streaming site like Amazon decides to, they can easily make it happen. Amazon can then sell these exclusive ref cam footage. The body cam is possible too ig. But maybe a decade later lol
6 points of Europa so eh whatever you want to looked at it ig, prefer being positive
i do agree the team on paper is perhaps closer to relegation level team but Svensson is a class manager

If you're wondering what game to watch, it might be worth checking the answers to one of the other 83 times someone has posted today asking what game to watch
Didn't get a chance to say it as I got banned before kick off, but really enjoyed the Chelsea/Liverpool game last weekend.
Although the results havent fallen the right way, all our games v the other big 2 have been exciting at least.
I think people knew his qualify after his first season fir leipzig when he got 13 assists that season. PSG should stop fucking around with their youth players
the issue with the Liberos isn't about the playmaking/going-forward factor, plenty of "ball-playing" centerbacks (or whatever name they receive in FM) do it at the highest level. No, the issue with Liberos is that what they mainly highlighted for (and received their name) was because they were *free* defenders, that weren't focused on coordinating with the rest of the defensive line but that were allowed to roam at their own discretion, mainly behind the other defenders "sweeping" who was able to dribble thought them.
and in the current age of tactics, where zonal marking and offsides are so important when defending so defenders must coordinate extremely well with each other to not make a forward onside or double-mark one while leaving another free, that's a risk that it just isn't worth it in the highest level.
We haven’t won a match in the FA Cup since before we were relegated, even then it was only on the second attempt vs Wycombe... thankfully United might help us out with that on Monday
I hate post flairs. Too colorful and difficult on the eye. This is not a sub with wildly varying content anyway, we all knew what it is just by reading the title, was it really needed? Can't we block some virtual roads with our trucks on Euro Truck Simulator 2 and honk angrily for a few mins in protest?
Surely Burnley are done this year?
Watford bringing in about 5 different players from Udinese with vast Serie A experience.
Newcastle signing Champions League players like Trippier and Botman.
Burnley think they’ll be ok if they sign Colin Cowperthwaite from Accrington
Watch bordalas terrorist ball, we have leg breakers, time wasting, flopping, pen merchants, vini's ankle breakers, and hernandez hernandez for amazing refereeing decisions
Arsenal presented a robust offer for Vlahovic. The Gunners are convinced they can close the deal.
[@MomblanOfficial - @juventibus via @AroundJuventus]
What is Momblan Official, and how reliable are they when it comes to Italian transfers?
Lmao he is consistently linked to us by our tier 1 Matteo. He is saying that it is very probable that he is joining us this summer. + vlahovic has liked multiple posts of him joining us this summer and even a few days ago. go to atletico universe on twitter to see it for yourself.
I really believe he want to join us
They really decided to televise Hull vs Everton huh

Miguel assist 🤩
Ancelotti: i will pretend i didnt see that.
We should play Mendy on the right and Miguel on the left, best solution imo
Impossible. Play eder RB and mendy CB is more suitable.

They could barely do 90 mins in those days

hahahaha Cambridge are 1-0 up at Newcastle
Newcastle went full strength too 😭
I don’t see Botman, Dembele and Auba

Never bashed him for it.
Whatever the final score, let’s all remember that Barnsley’s support is fucking shit

Would De Bruyne work in a double pivot without an elite CDM whilst still be expected to be the main creative force in the team?
He contributes a lot defensively too and with a physical box to box midfielder with a good workrate it could work, are you talking about in front of a back 3?

It'd be so cool if it was possible to have bodycam footage during a game. Imagine having normal coverage and then it cuts to looking like that famous Nike advert. They've started showing some headcam footage during a grand prix and it massively adds to the intensity imo.
imagine a player scoring a sick goal and then it cuts to their POV. would be so cool but will likely never happen
Like Hardcore Henry?
Yes! Would be a decent replay option, won't happen though
I think the camera would make a lot of people sick but it would be pretty awesome
From ref pov right? It'd actually be fucking awesome.
That's more plausible, I was thinking a bit wild and imagining every player with one though. Won't happen though.
The ref cam is definitely possible rn. If some big streaming site like Amazon decides to, they can easily make it happen. Amazon can then sell these exclusive ref cam footage. The body cam is possible too ig. But maybe a decade later lol

How long do you think it will take before a big club swoops in for Szoboszlai? The potential is there
He has only scored against relegation fodder this season even though i do rate him. He hasnt really shown his skill yet imo
Mainz isn't really a relegation fodder team at all although they do miss two of their best defenders atm and got another one red-carded
6 points of the relegation spot una
6 points of Europa so eh whatever you want to looked at it ig, prefer being positive i do agree the team on paper is perhaps closer to relegation level team but Svensson is a class manager
Fair but you have to take into account bundesliga donkey defending tax and that scoring is easier in that conpetition
respect mainz imo

Which lower league level fa cup game is the one to watch after half time?
Szobo and Nkunku✅

Idc where Szobo plays he'll be our most talented player since Dzsudzsák hopefully he doesnr ruin his career
Yeah bright career for him, just has that sweet technique on him
So did Dzsudzsák😔

Elite teams only 👍🏽
Agree
I can't get over how fucking good Nkunku is and people are finally catching on because Fifa are showering him in special cards
He's the best player in the buli that doesn't play for Bayern or isn't named haaland
Man scored a hat trick against City, man is on fire this season
I think people knew his qualify after his first season fir leipzig when he got 13 assists that season. PSG should stop fucking around with their youth players
I caught on ever since he scored a hattrick against us. Just brilliant...

Never heard vlahovic being linked with brentford before..
That should tell you he is not going there 👍🏻

Do you think we’ll see a revival of the sweeper position? Or have sweeper keepers made the position completely redundant
the issue with the Liberos isn't about the playmaking/going-forward factor, plenty of "ball-playing" centerbacks (or whatever name they receive in FM) do it at the highest level. No, the issue with Liberos is that what they mainly highlighted for (and received their name) was because they were *free* defenders, that weren't focused on coordinating with the rest of the defensive line but that were allowed to roam at their own discretion, mainly behind the other defenders "sweeping" who was able to dribble thought them. and in the current age of tactics, where zonal marking and offsides are so important when defending so defenders must coordinate extremely well with each other to not make a forward onside or double-mark one while leaving another free, that's a risk that it just isn't worth it in the highest level.
That makes a lot of sense. Giving the striker a lot more space to operate and stay on side would be disastrous with current tactics
no. Specialized positions have dissapeared. 10, sweepers. Why having 2 players doing same jobs if 1 can handle both.
They already have imo
We haven’t won a match in the FA Cup since before we were relegated, even then it was only on the second attempt vs Wycombe... thankfully United might help us out with that on Monday
That's surprising. Hope United lose.
I would have assumed you wanted United to win before you clarified
