Re: Burnley v Brighton - Player Ratings

Muric 3 Other than the schoolboy error, which I will never understand, he was actually having a fantastic game... minus 4 or 5 for the error. Assignon 6 solid. Will still be playing in the Prem next year. With or without us IMO Ekdal 7 Excellent. Very poised. If he can overcome his injury curse, he ...

Re: Odobert

What a lot of people miss with Odobert is how much room for improvement he has. He is still incredibly raw. If he can add better awareness, and a little more game IQ to his game he really is going to be a fantastic player. Unfortunately, right now he gives the ball away far too much and is wasteful ...

People forget how divided the general view of Muric was last year. Teams defend high and the quick option is ...
