That won't work in today's game IMO. If he plays, I hope he proves me wrong. He is the type of player who has the ability to unsettle them and make a difference. But there is a danger that like so many players in their first OF match, that it passes him by. It is the type of call that the manager has to get right. We can't have passengers today. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't afford any passengers or players getting caught on the ball. Big calls to make from Gio. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The goal in Eindhoven is a great example. He has great footballing intelligence. I worry only about his stamina but we will have arfield waiting in the wings if Tillman runs out of steam. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,276 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Can`t say I look forward playing them any longer, no matter how sweet a win will taste. One just hopes that everyone is up for it from the off, gives his all and the ref doesn`t ruin it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoohBear 1,083 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 The only surprise for me is Davis in, I guess that pushes Tillman to the right. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 4,808 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Quite defensive looking, might initially get hemmed in with Colak marooned. Need to keep them out #statethebleedinobvious 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davis is a calm head when all around will be bedlam. And he is an exceptional footballer as he proved on tuesday. If we can get 60 minutes from him, I'll be happy. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
