2025/26 Charly Alcaraz

[Zatara]

If you mean Vs last season?

Last season we were fighting for our lives and playing on the break a lot, so he didn't have to do much other than help us in transition.

This season we are trying to get on the ball and play a bit, so if your argument is that he's being misused by being asked to play a bit more football then we are better off without him. Funnily enough this is exactly the conclusion his last manager and club came to.

This whole 'posession' slow build up is absolute boredom.

So yeah id prefer quick transitions

I'd prefer a better player than Alcaraz, but we are where we are.

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

He plays like a golden retriever

 

[pfim]

Brutal appearance. This is his chance and he’s blowing it.

 

[Ring master]

Let himself down over the xmas games to what he could/usually does do

 

[ToffeeTim]

His decision making in the final third is nowhere near the standard required

 

[steven]

Been really disappointed in him recently. Thought he was great last year, showed up well against palace second half but last two games in particular he has stunk the place out.

 

[Ged G]

All those shouting for his inclusion earler... Well,now you see, maybe Moyes knew better

 

[MACCA75]

Probably getting sold in the summer given the short contract we gave him.

 

[PhilRegan]

Still dont see it sorry lads

So would i but hes the only 10 in the team as Moyes wont play Dibling there.

 

[Nymzee]

He cost about £12m so inconsistent performances are about right.

 

[Dublin blue 75]

Probably getting sold in the summer given the short contract we gave him.

Hope springs eternal

 

[Stoffee]

Been poor recently and today.... but still don't understand rohl coming in for him

 

[Zatara]

Brutal appearance. This is his chance and he’s blowing it.

Weve been here before?

His big chance would be a goal, assist, and/or a motm and then hes dropped or put on the wing.

This posession focus also doesnt suit him - he looks dreadful.

As do all the other attacking players compared to fast, direct quick transitions attacking football.

Shouldnt have changed style from last season.
