Still think Kane will fancy his chances against Dav and Mina. They certainly give you some opportunities.
Mina is not all that great.Looked much better next to Mina who is an absolute beast, no idea why he didn’t start first game. As a side note barca are looking to off load Mina due to EU player quota. Could do a lot worse if Toby were to leave.
It’s weird with Davinson the one ball that seems to give him trouble is the ball over the top. Saw it numerous times last season he seems to have trouble judging the flight and bounce. It’s actually worse when he is favourite to get the ball, almost like he has too much time to think. When he’s 2nd favourite chasing back he actually seems to do better. Saw it in 1st game at World Cup, he was easily favourite for it but dithered got in a tangle which led to Colombia red card. It’s the weakest part of his game and a little bit of a mystery to me why he gets in such a tangle.
Ah, it takes me back to playing CB in Sunday league at Hackney Marshes, where my main role in a game would be trying to judge the flight of another long ball coming out of the sky, sun in my eyes, whilst team-mates everywhere scream, "Don't let it bounce, for fuck's sake, don't let it bounce."It’s weird with Davinson the one ball that seems to give him trouble is the ball over the top.

Agree. It's exactly what happened when Rondon scored that goal against us. If he focused more on the ball he may have nicked it but he tried to go shoulder-to-shoulder first and it cost him. He did learn not to be so rash after that though so whilst it's a weakness it's probably an occasional thing. Hopefully England he has a couple more to get out of his system on TuesdayIn these situations it seems he sometimes focusses to much on the physical confrontation with the player rather than the ball.
Delighted with Davinson Sanchez today. Whilst the Colombian team are being idiots, he hasn't got involved. Sometimes these events show what a player has up top.
I agree mate I think Davison has been superb again. unfortunately for a England .
He didn't take one?Great penalty by the way
The guy I replied to username was Trippier the RBHe didn't take one?
