Leo No.8

I love that he said winning 8 out of the first 9 shows what a good job Jurgen did. It’s a really good trait that he’s not afraid to give that kind of credit to his predecessor.

Yes he’s been quietly imperious as f*ck this season.

He’s so fast and works his backside off without the ball. Kind of a weird contradiction because he can look a bit sloppy/lazy with the ball but he is incredible without it, amazing work rate and energy, desire to win it back. I’m happy with the role he’s doing but we can rightfully hope that he can offer more. Has loads of potential.

He has been great, some of the football we’ve played has been pretty spectacular and we look more solid defensively. Also love his refreshing honesty, and the players all look happy with the new style. Brilliant start, long may it continue.

He flashed an extremely high talent level last season with the odd mad turn or burst, but he’s doing those things all the time at the moment. He looks like he’s playing a different game to everyone else on the pitch this season.

All kinds of tricks up his sleeve.

Jones just lacks athleticism for me, he’s not dynamic enough to play that role. Szobo has loads of it but his brain lets him down in the final third.

I always felt playing in a Jurgen midfield was very difficult. Lots of graft and covering for others. The three in midfield were often sacrificed for the forwards and full backs to flourish. Obviously had fantastic results but I get why the midfielders are enjoying the new style of play.

I still think he’s only a squad player at this point, but he is a good one and home grown which is great. I do think his game may continue to get better with age and maturity as well. Might be one whose best years are mid to late twenties onwards.

Agreed - runs about non stop really fast and that’s hugely valuable. Just can’t help but find him frustrating because he does have the technique to be the full all rounder, just seems his brain gets in the way by over playing or making poor decisions. Still very young though so plenty of time to change that.

Played some lovely stuff at times. Gravenberch is an absolute revelation this season, brilliant again today. Using his body really well like Gini.
