    The good thing about Jude and Fede is that they’d run their socks off regardless.

    Yeah, the club/team culture around Jude has to improve. He's too young to be a leader and he's somehow asked to be one.

    I would love for Fede to take more of that role next season.

    He's surrounded by too many petulant and lazy players around him, that are older than him too. Jude is towards the bottom of my list to "sort out" in terms of the mini reset.

    I assume he'll be better once everything around him improves, but it only shows how bad culture spreads through the entire club.

    Agreed on building around Jude. I like his mentality and his accountability.

    The next manager should somehow position Jude similar to last year. In behind two forwards. We already know how good he is at arriving late in the box.

    He's being wasted playing deep

    He is great in midfield too, but there is more to gain from him playing as a shadow striker than a dynamo.

    He really should wrap the season up and get that shoulder surgery.

    Saw this posted somewhere else

    Pretty bad defending all around leading to their goal.

    Pedri just ran by Rodrido and Jude after passing to Yamal.

    Marca claims that he'll play in a double pivot role next season further back the field.

    Seems counter productive to me to stick our biggest goal scoring threat in midfield so far deep, but we'll see.

    Maybe they are really eyeing the Wirtz transfer.

    I'm not a fan of that at all by the way, mostly for non football related reasons.

    Doubt he comes unless we sell Rodrygo, but I am curious what the non football reasons are

    I think we need to sign either a good striker, a good AM/creative winger, or a good tempo setting CM. We need to sell Rodrygo to fund any of those, and also because he probably gets pushed out of the lineup by them. Also, we need to decide where Jude plays in Alonso's team, because he can be any of those 3 players lol. The AM could be Wirtz, with Jude in middle 3 and Kylian and Vini ahead of him. The CM could be Zubimendi (if he's not already going to Arsenal) with Jude as CF again and Kylian and Vini on either wing. I have no idea who the striker could be, but Jude then plays in CM and Kylian and Vini play off of the striker.

    He really picked up some bad habits this season when it comes to defense.

    When things were going well for him he was pulling back the mental patient from getting red carded time and time again.

    Unfortunately he caught the asshole bug and is now an asshole himself.

    He's as dumb as a brick. His interviews go viral because he sounds like he's kind of dumb. Doesn't mean he can't be a brilliant football player but I think living abroad demands a little bit more social awareness and engagement than being at home.

    That's why I think Bayern is a very good fit for him.

    Jude is an asshole on the pitch, but we don't know about him being an asshole off of it. That's just assumption.

    So if a person is a gentleman in public but treats his family like shit, is it perfectly acceptable?

    He mentioned that we know he's an asshole on the pitch, but might not be off of it.
