Ox is going to be huge but maybe not this campaign, an awful lot to ask.


plus.. he isn't very creative.. more power and pace! I'll be glad to have him back, though.. adds a different dimension..

I don't disagree in terms of passing, but I do think that Ox's brilliance is in the intelligence behind his runs and finding space both with and without the ball.

Honestly, I think one thing that could help us unlock these teams is more probing runs from center backs when those teams are parking the bus.

Matip created several chances from his initial runs because they don't take him as a threat and just let him through essentially. If we can have more of that, it adds another layer to our attack, similar to if Marcelo was playig at CB and still made those runs forward.

Just a thought. We are a very totem-poled side. Back line is strong when healthy. Midfield lacks creativity but is based on speed/power for pressing. Top three have all the talent in the world, but can't do it all by themselves.
