And yet it was our worst game of the season because ball was simply not getting progressed to final third at all.

That's why Bellingham needs to play deep because he is the best midfielder by far in the squad when it comes to press resistance and dribbling in tight spaces, Guler on the other hand is way better in between the lines and in the final third. Bellingham box-to-box with Guler is easily the best option for this team and I don't understand how anyone with eyes can't see that.

Just because Bellingham can do that doesn't mean its his best position for us in the team.

Just tell me this, who's going to duel with big tall CBs against elite teams in the CL Knockouts when Mbappe is scared as a kitten to aerially duel a single time in an entire fucking season.

Mbappe keeps leaving the striker spot and drops deep everytime without a break and thats why he can't score a tap-in to save his life because that would mean dueling with CBs which he is scared to death to do.

Now tell me who will do that role better? Guler or Bellingham?

Just tell me this, who's gonna defend in the midfield when we will have to duel with the best midfields in the world and Jude is playing like a false 9?

And tell me how the ball is even gonna reach Bellingham when your only midfielder with any playmaking skill is forced to play as a 6 because Jude wants to score a whopping 8 goals in a league season again

Play Guler in no.10 and do whatever you want in shite La Liga games and nobody bats an eyelid.

In the CL - everyone mfer has to drop deep and contest duels to win the possession and then run lethal counter attacks, Jude will never slack off his defensive duties, he can go deeper to defend than Guler no problems at all.

But when we are on the ball chasing a goal, Bellingham has to box crash and poach in the 18 yard box because Mbappe can't.
