Great goal by Misic, although its the only positive thing I have seen from him. Nani and Bruno fernandes combining really well.
Midfield really holding us back. I know a lot of people here like Acuna, but i genuinely dont see it. Im not sure what he offers besides running a lot.
Acuna should be tested in midfield. He can cross a ball so he plays wing but he doesnt have the explosiveness or unpredictability a winger needs. He can be a player that hounds down the opposition. I really liked Battaglia, he looked hungry. Closing down opponents and even his passing was better than last year. Its only one game so hopefully its not just a one off. Bruno Fernandes and Nani combined really well. Dost missed a couple of sitters but hopefully his form returns. Misic scored but simply does not stand out. He's a bench option at best. This game showed we need a solid defensive mid and 1 or 2 forwards. Defense was decent. Mathieu was quality. Jefferson was good too. I think if Lumor stands out we can be OK for LB.
