I stopped typing and watched it again. He could of just stood there and took it on the chest. So for me it was a poor attempt to block the ball.

We will have to disagree on this one
Sory to drag this up but I hadn't seen the clip since last night and I think that you both have a point - welcome to Jock's Mediation Service
Xhaka isn't ducking, he is trying to flick the ball away with his head but unfortunately he is so slow and useless that the ball is past him before he does anything which makes it look like a duck and looks even worse in slow motion. I do think that the clown should have anticipated the shot and jumped early but I refer you to my earlier point he is too slow and useless so it's academic which way he fu.cks it up
My invoice is on it's way gents

Saka was fucked in the couple of minutes before he was taken off - he was out of gas. He was not able to track back at al.
IMHO right decision to take him off, i would have put martinelli on tho.

That is the core he needs to build around - add laca, holding, ceballos and we are only two players short of a decent teamOneBardGooner wrote: ↑Tue Oct 01, 2019 10:29 amRe-watched the highlights and Yup! Xhakawanka DID Duck.
Leno, Chambers, Douzer, Saka and Auba, Torreira all did very well
Hopefully one is KT,
