Who makes it in the Prem? (6 Viewers)

Haji wide left worth a shout? Played there against Wolves and Man Utd to great effect. Then get that unit in up front and a RW, Rudi in behind. Couple of CMs a CB and a LB and you’re pretty much there.

Has something about him doesn't he.

maybe get more decisions in his favour in the Prem, refs in the Champ are shite and he gets fouled a lot as does Saka

I’ve always liked Haji on the left, but I think Lampard prefers a different kind of winger.

With the amount of defending we will have to do, absolutely not. Need someone with proper work rate out there.

I think EMC will step up .. time will tell

Got the physicality that’s for sure.

No, he’s not really good enough defensively to play there in the Prem. His attacking output is objectively better whenever he plays as a striker.

EMC is also one of our best attacking players…

Bobby Thomas definitely. His ability at set pieces will be important. He’s still young for a CB, could be an established PL defender in 2-3 years.

If we somehow cock it up and don’t go up, id imagine he’ll be established in the PL anyway.

Could see him going to a lower team like an Everton. I could imagine him next to Tarkowski. He’s definitely better than Michael Keane.

EMC because someone else doesn’t defend is a choice.

Yeah. I think he could be the next James Bond.

The name's Clark. Ephron Mason-Clark. I'll have a full back. Shaken AND stirred.

Set peices are massive in premier league now.

Brentford stayed up their first seaosn in premier league 2021 because in large part due to set pieces.

We need focus on our strengths and other teams weaknesses.

Use Thomas and an other centre backs and units as a weapon.

Luton created havoc at home with set pieces. Just couldnt see games over the line at home.

Stay up with whatever means nescessary.

Hope Boro and an other team get promoted other than Ipswich.

Looks like 2 of 3 promoted teams last year are gonna stay up. Leeds and Sunderland ( who may have 2nd season sussed out reality check).

Thats 4 teams we should be playing with in a mini league.. plus add to fact Palace dont look great with all their turmoil.

EMC because someone else doesn’t defend is a choice.

EMC’s defensive part of the game has come on leaps and bounds. The stats back this up because EMC has made more tackles, recoveries, balls won in final third than Sakamoto this season.

Sakamoto has more interceptions, blocks and clearances.

The narrative of EMC being a weak defender was true last season, not this one and one quick look on his year on year stats demonstrates this.
