an absolutely bonfire night of a show.... on 11:10 - Nov 6 by PhilmyRs | I disagree with this. I don't think he's playing well, not suited to both the Championship and how we're playing, but he can clearly play football. A pass last night he played was at a level nobody else in the team could play. But, I fully agree, that's not enough. His biggest problem is that he hides and doesn't work hard enough. But he can clearly play football he just needs to adapt to Championship and our style of play much quicker than what he's doing. |
Good post. I agree that he's got the talent, and also that talent is not enough. | |

I prefer to think of him as “ethereal.” | | | |

He was constantly demanding the ball and finding pockets of space between the lines in a clear passing lane for his teammate to find him. A world away from Madsen. |
Well you mentioned before that just being good on the ball, isn't the whole picture, which I agree with and you went on to say "If you have someone who doesn’t find space and provide an option for a pass to feet, who doesn’t press, doesn’t tackle, doesn’t track runners, does not read the game, doesn’t want physical contact, barely breaks into anything more than a trot"... I'd say the majority of those descriptions Adel would meet. I agree, he was great at demanding the ball, which is massive, but he didn't track runners, didn't ever tackle and he barely broke into anything more than a trot, (when he didn't have the ball). You've focused on one element of Adel without the ball - his willingness to receive it -, but clearly there's other parts which he lacked in. If Madsen involved himself more, which I do think is partly down to the brand of football we're playing and poor confidence among the Team, and we found a more attacking role for him - he's not a holding midfielder or an 8 - some of the off the ball things he lacks in and which people are rightfully calling out wouldn't be such an issue. | | | |
