The media made noise about two of these players btw.
Have a guess which two.
Aubameyang, Grealish, Foden and Lukaku all dropped for disciplinary/non-football reasons within the last few weeks.

Today they were well drilled, solid defensively, won all their duels and played some great football.
Best team in the league at the moment for sure.

you are very, very good at this.
Pep's quotes spoke to the fire that is extinguished when people achieve dreams.
I wrote about Guardiola, J. Cole, Bielsa, deforming success, and reigniting fire once you stand upon the imagined pedestal that inspired it:

Can’t underestimate what having a goalkeeper that can do this does to the team.
A move that would normally take 10+ passes, now launched with one kick.

Can’t help but feel like the biggest thing affecting Havertz right now is a mental block.
Fear of playing the wrong pass, or running down a blind alley.
Need a return of the fearless, attack-minded playmaker who had the world talking about him at Leverkusen.

Marcus Rashford forcing the government to feed starving children had absolutely nothing to do with the Manchester United badge.
But yeah.
Rashford
1. A failure for United’s football department if he leaves
2. A very poor look for MR if he can’t get his form right to break into this team
3. MR/Team would be naive if they think his off-pitch voice will carry without the MU badge
Lose/Lose if he goes. Sort it out!
