Just thought he did his good work in front of the defence in a reasonably small area where as Yates and Kouyate were tasked with getting forward more often. MGW was busting a gut all over the Liverpool half in the final ten minutes, was thinking he must be dying inside having to chase down lost cause after lost cause like he did.
I agree mate.
I made a similar comparison, makes tackles, passes it sideways & rarely loses posession. Dictates the tempo if you will.
That's the 2nd game running as he covered the most ground v Brighton as well.
If that's not a Skysports brainwashed post I don't know what is !
Way better than McKenna - who never played in the EPL I believe. Reminds me of Terry Wilson before he got injured; who was very highly rated by the other players of that generation.
That's why I caveat it with Freulers speed of thought and his passing. He does everything McKenna did but with such speed and awareness. That alone can be the difference between a plying your trade a division lower or becoming an international.
Agreed - I’d also throw into the mix that I’m absolutely certain he’s played a big part in Yatesy’s improvement. He knows where to be, is calm but quick on the ball and he puts his foot in rather than being out of control in the tackle - Ryan is a quick learner, having Freuler alongside him has made a big difference to Ryan imo.
