    All anyone in the stadium noticed was the suicidal back pass to Forster. [emoji85]

    Fonte has made many mistakes during his tenure but he almost has a cult hero status. Most of the unfair treatment Yoshida is receiving is based on nationality prejudice, no need to go looking much further.

    He's a good defender, but he's let down by his technical competence. He has at least one heart-in-mouth moment each game which makes us feel nervous.

    Hmm I'm not sure I agree. Yoshida has very good feets, he's just... very naive. He's made those kind of mistakes since ages, even in the NT. So yeah, he has those moments but I feel it's mostly lack of concentration.

    What? Is it really? But he's weak when he needs to turn. He's well-known weakness all over the years. Out and out pace is not really worked if his timing on turning let him down.

    This is top speed, so I can believe this.
    Maya's acceleration however is pretty poor instead and far from Walcott's, which is normal given his body, though.

    Don't think it's poor, it's normal. I've never seen him struggle that much in terms of speed.

    rewatch the 2nd goal Jordan scored, away, against us in the previous qualifiers for some pain.
    But again, once he kicks off, that's a different story, I remember him owning Aguero.

    One time. Other than that I've seen him outrun some of the best strikers of the PL. We can all have a day off.
