    Player Watch Player Watch: Rodrigo Bentancur

    For me, Bentacur's performances against Brighton and Brentford (and also arguably Utd away) where he was no better than Hojijberg were a reality check. I was finding myself carried away during the winning run thinking he's Carrick mark-two. I think we have to wait and see. He definitely offers...

    Player Watch - Japhet Tanganga

    Agree - te's a centre-back playing at right back and it showed on Sunday. He'll never let us down defensively and I think it's useful having a full-back who can compete in the air but we need an option with more attacking quality for the park-the-bus teams.

    Harry Winks - Leicester City

    What really holds Harry Winks back, I think, is a technical deficiency - he doesn't have a clean strike of a football. His short-passing game is good but he can't switch play quickly enough.

    Player Watch: Moussa Sissoko

    I agree with Poch entirely. Clearly, Sissoko's a player we could improve on but until we do he performs an important function for the team. He forces turnovers; he keeps the ball for the most (albeit cumbersomely) and his strength and pace is an asset in transitions. His presence i gives us...

    Player Watch: Serge Aurier

    Clearly, he has a slip of concentration in him which fortunately hasn't cost us yet but I'm sure this will be ironed out and apart from these blips he's looked very solid. I think where he's actually underwhelmed is as an attacking threat. For me he's pretty conservative; he always keeps the...

    Kyle Walker - opinion poll

    In the end, if a player wants to go, there's little you can do. It's raw not only because it weakens us significantly (Walker has hardly put a foot wrong for the last two years) while strengthening a direct rival but even more so because of the message it sets to the rest of the squad - go...
