karacicek Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Yağız Sabuncuoğlu ; He stated on his youtube channel that he talked to the president of the Paços Ferreira club on the phone, asked him many times, and that the president said "we will definitely not sell". But I still have little reason to be hopeful. 1st one; There are transfer offers for Miha Zajc and José Sosa. ( There are rumors that the offers are serious ) 2. Number 7 is still vacant in Fenerbahçe... 😉 3. Fenerbahce president said, "Even if it doesn't reach the European league, we will try to fulfill Choch's wishes until the last moment of the transfer time." So I have a little hope. youllneverwalkalone, Cblake, frmr and 3 others 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gator Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 What really impresses me is his football IQ, how well he reads the game, there were numerous times last night where his defensive support completely altered the US attack without him even having to make a challenge!, he has been a huge reason our team has improved so much!

WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 All the windows closed. Pacos not playing too many extra games (one cup game each of the next two months). Hopefully gets a bit of rest and continues to be the glue that keeps our midfield together. Glad he getting some recognition in a position that often doesn't. youllneverwalkalone, Cblake, Approve My Account Pls and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herdman made dozens of calls to Eustaquio before he commited. I think that is what most of us thought to be true, but the confirmation is nice. It also reinforces the idea that Herdman will be using every tool he has to get the uncommitted duals to buy into the movement that is underway over the medium to long term. A few strategic additions would be pretty big - even though I think we probably have the horses to do the job with the squad as it stands.

Bertuzzi44 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Love love love Eustaquio but don't think he has the profile/pedigree to be a serious National team player for Portugal. Especially staying at pacos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dyslexic nam Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I also think that if you are going to level any criticism at Eustaquio, it isn’t about his stamina or the need for more wind. He can run all day from what I have seen, and has enough energy to make flat-out sprints in the 90th minute after running more than anyone else on the pitch. johnyb, Cblake, Sal333 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eustaquio's motor and work rate over 90 minutes, game after game, is ridiculous. He may lack the pace and tackling ability of Kante, but motor? I don't think so.

Wingback6 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 (edited) Heading. No one talks about his heading of the ball it seems. From his first game for CMNT having never watched him before, it was his heading of the ball that stood out for me. Not in attack. Not in defense. But in the press. Winning those headers off of a clearing attempt is something that most midfielders never even bother with properly. But he does. Running to the ball. Running back to the ball. It's ridiculous. So many attacks die at that point. But less so when he is on the field. It is a rare. But valuable gift to have a smaller, more mobile midfielder who is so dominant in the air, like S. E. But perhaps I am the only one seeing that. Edited September 10, 2021 by Wingback6 yomurphy1, Cblake and Corazon 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Will Johnson comes to mind, but I am still not sure he had the engine of Eustaquio. Nor did he did not have the composure and guile. Stephen really is a fantastic player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They say he had the best fitness on the best Barça, based on testing. Frenkie de Jong is habitually the player on the pitch for us running the most. Which I am not sure is a good thing. If you are an efficient passing team, maybe you don't need that much motor, the tactics and positioning should save you a % of running. I get the feeling that SE could do way more, I have not seen him overwhelmed or out of his league a single time in these last matches. Though I do think that vs. Honduras, with limited midfield support, we impeded his talent and he was more easily covered when we were trying to play out.
