This is art from Moises Caicedo. Two of Chelsea's best chances resulted from his line-breaking pass. Pair that with his tackling ability. Love him, my favorite 6.

Everyone clowning on Unai Emery on the TL after Aston Villa's 4th loss of the season is a tad crazy, I can't lie. They are joint top in goals with Man City (40) and 4th in goals against (25).

They left plenty of spaces, we just didn't have the courage or vision to play the ball into the space. City chose to be more pragmatic than Arsenal. Can't score without taking risks, would have needed a massive mistake.

I don't see how he could have positioned himself better. There was no through balls. He was there on the back post for the corner but missed. That was the only poor bit but it's football, it happens.

Why are people surprised Aston Villa are performing poorly without Pau Torres and Ezri Konsa? Their entire team relies on the coordination of their back-line with the offside trap, and distribution to get it back to front in one pass.

Pushing player's bodies beyond the limit is not entertaining. Football has become an endurance race. Even the best athletes won't survive. A byproduct of this is the creatives who were never the top athletes will be further pushed out of the sport.

John Stones on Stefan Ortega: “Incredible keeper. Not easy at all to come in at this stage and how he played, the saves he pulled off, intelligent saves."
Most intelligent save for me. Hand underneath the ball to palm it high. If he directs it low/wide, it's a tap-in rebound.

Phil Foden will outlast the entire crop of England talent because his minutes were correctly managed by Manchester City. It's not sustainable to play 90 minutes with 2-3 days rest for multiple weeks.

It's not squad depth, it's trusting your bench. If Pep gave limited minutes to Nunes, Bobb, Doku, Lewis, and Gomez we wouldn't have depth. They'd be as off as Nketiah, Zinchenko, Smith Rowe, Vieira, and Partey. You need everyone.
Pep is obviously a genius, but great squad depth is a significant factor as to why sides like City and Madrid finish the season extremely strongly, especially the former.
When you’ve got the luxury of 50m+ players essentially everywhere, the quality eventually prevails.

If English clubs want to compete in Europe they had to scrap replays ✅ and they should scrap the Carabao Cup. There's too many games in the schedule. Real Madrid played one extra and Bayern Munich two extra games in April, while Man City and Arsenal both played three. No rest.

He was either, A, one of the players complaining, or B, (more likely probably) annoyed with those complaining and wanted to shut them up. Either way it's very smart of him to do to take pressure off

Seriously, what is happening with Erling Haaland. His passing and dribbling ability is increasing exponentially. He'll be doing rabonas soon.

We looked infinitely more threatening with Phil Foden in the left half-space rotating with Doku. Bernardo Silva on the edges covering for Walker. It makes so much more sense compared to the first half setup, with Foden on the edges wide right and Bernardo on the left.

What happened with Liverpool yesterday is more serious than many realize. I can't remember a situation like this with one ref awarding a goal and the other disallowing. The integrity of the competition is in question with a mistake this big. I could see the match being replayed.

Watching the United vs Chelsea match. Axel Disasi is a massive liability for Chelsea both in the build-up and defending in the box.
Cucurella LB, Colwill LCB, Badiashille RCB, and James RB

Trevoah Chalobah could provide Liverpool with depth at RCB.
- Premier League proven (important)
- English, homegrown
- 24 years old, room to improve
- Efficient carrier of the ball
- Tall, 190cm
- Accurate enough passer
- Could act as emergency depth in holding midfield

He completed 94% of 68 passes and was dispossessed once. 1 successful dribble. 5 of 6 for long balls. 4 interceptions and 12 recoveries. 11 of 15 ground duels won. 4 of 7 tackles won. Can't ask for much more.

Always been a fan of Trevoh Chalobah. Can cover a lot of space, good timing, great header, tall, great carrier of the ball. Mobile center-backs are a dime a dozen. With some training I think he could play as a holding midfielder. He also a decent shot from outside the box.

There's not a single instance this season where he's received a pass like the ones he received from Cucurella and Maatsen. Watch him at Villarreal. That's how he scores. Main problem is distribution and now confidence.

If the Chelsea fanbase got their hands on Onana he would be sold to Turkey on a free this summer. His confidence would be so far deep in the gutter. Credit to United's fanbase for standing behind him through all those errors. I didn't think they had it in them after De Gea.

I think he offers a bit more right now outside of the box than Isak. He has a smoother transition from dribbling to passing. Better defender, wins a lot of 50/50s. Just needs to get back to Villarreal finishing.

Bayern Munich should contact Ange Postecoglou. You can improve a team but the culture of the club is rough. Never seen anything like that match with the atmosphere.

If I had to build a 6 in a lab, Moises Caicedo would be close to my ideal. Get as close to Fernandinho as you can get.
The difference being, Fernandinho joined Man City when he was 28, Caicedo joined Chelsea at 21. The most exciting 6 for me.

Kane up top. Rashford on the left, Sterling on the right. Foden in the left half-space, Saka in the right half-space. Bellingham down the middle. Trent Alexander-Arnold as a 6. Colwill, Rice, Stones back-three.

Only a select few number of goalkeepers maintain world-class form over multiple seasons. That's what makes them interesting and why you can't be to tied to the past when talking about them.
This is a count of all the goalkeepers with more than one season with a PSxG-GA of +2.9.

From GW1-GW19 Brighton were pretty poor defensively, ranked middle of the table, 11th in xG against. I mentioned Roberto De Zerbi figured something out defensively in December. From GW20-GW28, Brighton rank 2nd in xG against. Improvement now shown in the data.
There were two things I liked from Brighton when they played Tottenham: The increased pressure wide from Danny Welbeck and the improved organization of their higher line.
