Bravo Schalke

not as good as i was expecting. Got subbed later on but i think he was unfit because of that incident in the derby

lets continue the dortmund/bayern/madrid/german/spanish rivarly in here

go go go
afk

Not Interested. We are not unreasonable like Madristas.

We are offering our sympathies to Arsenal whose thug Director force them to burn their new shirts as every year their bext player is changed & Wenger has to make new stars so that they can be sold for more money. Still nice club playing attacking football.

And less arrogant than Madrid. Humble & Respectful fans who have meaningful logical Footballing Discussions

See & learn Madristas Humbleness even in defeat

You can call him average...he has his deficiencies, but he knows his job, does it very very well and he also keeps things ticking over with intelligent play.

Some people (not necessarily you) greatly value that sort of thing.

Yea he does not stand out. No vision, creativity or defensive ability. Okay pLayer, bits & pieces. Can do everything decent, nothing stands out though.

No defensive ability ? Are you high ?

i gotta i say i also gradually get more impressed by neustätter, maybe germany should give him a call-up next time. he's not flashy at all and he likes to have a couple of bad touches but he's improving. i read a statement of him once where he said that he changed his work ethic a lot two years ago, which is maybe why he came onto the scene quite late. there are some parallels between him and khedira

Im also worried about Wenger's rotation policy.

Not working so far.

Im also worried about the tactics...

No shots on goal means all our players were too cautious upfront but vurnable in the back. Thats coming from the dressing room.

Im also worried that Wenger made the captain 2nd best defender.

So many things, im worried tonight...

I have to do something

He's not an Essien or even a Gustavo. He cant shield an entire Team & Defense on his own IMO. He needs a Hoger to support him

Please inform me when at any point in his entire career Essien shielded an entire team on his own....are we really going to sit here and pretend he didn't play with Essien and Ballack in a Mourinhio team no less most of the time?

He needs someone who can cover space around him but that's not necessarily Hoger. Holtby can do that job if Stevens ever decides to be a bit more flexible, but as it is Hoger and Jones will help him out.

Just as Schweini helps out Gustavo.

Gustavo is fast & covers space. Essien in his peak was like a 1 Man Army IMO. He could do so many things.

I dunno nothing stands about Roman. Non Flashy Player.

Nice buy though, Schalke is growing as team. They need 1 Top Class CM & they can be a Big Threat in Europe

Average Player. Get Over him. If Schalke had Alonso Modric they would be CHL contenders now

average mate BMG lost more by letting neustadter go than reus and dante combined

So if I'm to believe your logic.....non-flashy=average. Gustavo is no more flashy than Neustadter and yet I don't see you calling him average.

Keep that Bayern bias in check, brah.

Gustavo is a beast. Sharper in Tackle & Ridiculously fast. He is attackingly not that good but he can does have a bit of a flash a defensive beast

TBF it's all three, but Xhaka flopping is hurting the most.
