2025/26 Charly Alcaraz

[Bob Latchford]

Absolutely superb today when he came on, on and off the ball.

Best game in a blue shirt by far today.

He was good vs Palace away last season too!

He was good vs Palace away last season too!

Needs a run in the side always spraying the ball around - DH can play deeper keep Gardner at right back with Keane injured...

 

[PKwalnuts]

He has the spirit of Cahill. He is a narky little attack minded winner.

 

[SuperKev91]

He was good vs Palace away last season too!

He was decent but his impact was better than his performance. Today he had both IMO.

 

[ArtetaMagic]

With Grealish out and KDH back he'll be played out on the right

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Great seeing him getting a nark on when he played the ball to someone and then he continued his run only to see them play it back or sideways.

If he doesn't start the next game, it will be a travesty of the highest order. No point having a player on the bench (undeserved imo) who comes on and injects much needed impetus and goes unrecognised. Will be interesting what Moyes does. I will be very pleasantly surprised if he starts. Hopefully Moyes doesn't fudge it

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

The problem is Moyes has spent a lot of money and not really improved the side! Ndiaye is just as effective as Grealish on the left hand side. Barry is not an improvement on Beto, neither is KDH on Alcaraz and right now Dibling isn’t an upgrade on Lindstrom. We should have bought 2 good full backs, plus a pacy right winger. We should also have invested in another no 6. That would’ve improved the first team. But Moyes has effectively spent £100 million and not achieved much. It’s an impressive feat.

Love the guy

 

[murphy89]

I don’t rate him but he changed the game today. Problem is, he starts the next game and stinks the gaff out.

Would love to see the Charley we saw today every game.

Does Alcaraz get the best out of Barry?

 

[TrixyStevens]

Does Alcaraz get the best out of Barry?

Possibly as he is the only one who can play a final ball from centre midfield but Barry was awful today.

 

[Eagle Eye]

We’re has he played as a Center forward?

Moyes likes a target man tho

Played against Arsenal there for Southampton and scored and assisted.

Opponents are taking note and neutralizing attacking options. Just as they did with Grealish, they'll do the same with Alcaraz. The important thing is to have variations and use them to adapt to the game.
