  1. Our midfielders are in great form
    Enzo Fernandez
    Macallister
    De Paul
    Palacios
    Nico paz
    All playing really really well for thier clubs so happy for them

    • Maybe Lo Celso is the best+Paredes plays great too under Ranieri but Alan Varela has lost his starting place in Porto, the next generation is coming very slowly (Varela, Equi Fernandez, Medina all problematic for NT due to different reasons) or Perrone, Barrenechea play in very weak relegation sides only. Nico Dominguez is doing OK in overperforming Nottingham, not 100% starter but a regular rotation player. At this point Nico Dominguez should be the heir of Guido Rodriguez in Scaloni’s rotation. (who struggled in West Ham and now a sub). Buonanotte showed exciting things in Leicester too but in another relegation side team like Como, Valencia or Frosinone. (Soule case is worrying) our talents have to perform in better teams under bigger expectations.

  2. Depaul is in great run of form. He is the player with highest number of successful through balls in Spain. Yes, he loses possession consistently but again he is trying to create those chances.
    Molina came off the bench and immediately started to have impact. He’s got 2 assists in last few matches with his crosses.
    Alvarez had a good game too! Could have had couple assist but very poor finishing from Atletico players again. 12 goals and 3 assist with very minimal service is absolutely amazing!
