    Neat goal from him today. But didn't think he did a lot.

    Well if fer is already on... I think if Sigurdsson is out from start, Fer would go in there but maybe Guidolin decided on or is experimenting with this setup.

    Without Britton today, hard to know how temporary this shuffling is.

    On such a bad team performance ok I guess is enough to stay in his spot.

    Didn't Guidolin play Cork and Fer as CMs for the second half of last season anyway?

    players' match performances get judged so variably. some people respect those who do the little things consistently right with "tidy" play. while there are some players who look reckless but can produce moments of magic leading to a goal or assist. supporters of the club would likely forgive the latter type of player for producing the result while underrating the former type of player.

    we as fans of individuals, moreso than clubs, will always have difference perspectives about how a player performed since our priorities aren't the same. the newspaper ratings get taken too seriously, just like fifa rankings. soccer's an abstract and subjective sport

    Given small contributions by Ki last season, memory fuzzy but thought Fer as Sigursssons backup based on that as they had Britton and Cork to man deeper spots in different system this season.

    In all cases, I don't think Guidolin has a firm idea of what to do with Ki and how much of this is experiment vs his plan going forward.
