2025/26 Charly Alcaraz

Mistakes are part of learning. The more he plays, the fewer mistakes he makes.

Which should also be a mantra applied to Barry but everyone seems to wanna write him off

Two of the three are super droppable and the one who isn’t is leaving for a month

KDH and Grealish are super droppable… Really?

Yes, Grealish only goal contribution in a long while is a deflection, he’s not beating his man and his slowing the attacking down isn’t good when he’s not producing himself.

KDH should play deeper or not at all. The injury was a shame but it was another invisible appearance in that #10 role. His best performances are with Alcaraz doing the stuff he doesn’t.

So yeah drop away.

Fair enough. Another invisible appearance in the 16 mins he played is harsh .
For me, CA has talent but his final ball has been a let down… example Sunderland and I think, but could be wrong vs United? Very Ross Barkleyesq… too much time to think tends to provide the wrong outcome. Talented though.
Like I say, I really hope he does well this month. I’m clearly not the only one who isn’t sure based upon the length of his contract.

His production for his entire career suggests his final ball is fine. His final ball to Grealish was fantastic.

Alcaraz's brain works faster than Barry's. Is plain to see for those who have played the game or understood the game in depth. Movement and positional play after an interception and movement forward with these two is totally different.

…..he’s getting plenty of credit with them not playing

Ok lets see, saved for posterity
