Gemmill 48024 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I said he seemed to be struggling physically against imposing centre halves. Which at the time was true. It was when we were going through our shit spell and he seemed completely isolated and was getting dominated physically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 7125 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Tonali couldn't get a game ahead of Longstaff 9-10 games ago. He'll still be off Italy. Im just pushing it back a year now. Summer of 2026 now. 😄 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 48024 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Yeah, the idea that he "couldn't" get into the side is also bollocks. He was never being kept out of the side by Longstaff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 48024 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 The level he plays at it's just an absurd framing to claim he couldn't get into the side. The truth is that he is effectively in his first season at the club, and was being eased in/finding his best position. Listen, you made a terrible, terrible mistake, and were as wrong about the player as it's possible to be. We're all prepared to accept that and move on but you need to stop this silly talk about couldn't get a game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toonotl 3310 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Tonali's pace at 6 is such a massive asset. It seems like one of those things that you don't pick someone at 6 for specifically but if they have it it sends them into the stratosphere. He's brilliant. Fast becoming my favourite player. Looks like a roman God too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew he had massive talent and desperately wanted him to succeed but it wasn’t looking good for him earlier in the season. He wasn’t in the team and didn’t look great at 8. Eddie has managed to sort out the balance of the team by putting him 6 and it’s worked wonders. He looks like a top lad and I’m chuffed for him.

Gemmill 48024 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 If it wasn't for Isak, he'd be the talk of the league this month instead. I think I remember you saying Isak wouldn't get into the team if we still had Shola btw. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
