I’d be happy if we signed either one in the summer. Not picky.
They were talking about this on Football Weekly last week. Doku appears to have all the freedom to skin players and be himself, yet Pep never seemed to give Grealish the same liberties.
The whole Jack Grealish love in was way over the top over the last couple of years. Yes he is talented, but he doesn't score enough or assist enough. He wins lots of free kicks, but that allows other teams to get back re-organise. His lifestyle is a bit of an issue too. For me he would be at risk of not going to the euros in the summer. I'd have Saka and Foden as the 2 first choice wide players, with Palmer, Maddison and Gordon. Probably have Sterling before him tooInteresting, sounds to me like Pep isn't too happy with his conditioning and training from that.
The answer would be to have them playing either side of Rice instead of having two defensive midfielders. Neither of them would be a number 10 but both would have the freedom to move into those advanced spaces when necessary.If Guardiola feels Foden is better centrally how does Southgate get him and Bellingham into the same team. Always feel Foden is wasted out wide for England but he doesnt get in ahead of Bellingham as the Nr 10
Who would you then have wide left and wide right? Al hypothetical of course as no way Southgate is playing anything that offensive unfortunatelyThe answer would be to have them playing either side of Rice instead of having two defensive midfielders.
