His play looks so much more focused and sharp now. Loved his reaction of roaring at Rice after Rice's goal, looks like a player who fully feels like a member of the team now.
Yeah, really good game from Kai. Looks much better physically now and confidence is also visibly high.
Looks like there might be a useful player in there after all! Good stuff.
His best game so far.
On the back of tonight’s great performance, I’ll only be evaluating him against what I’d want out of a second striker. He may start as an 8 but he’s barely playing like one. He did win quite a few duels/headers!
Proud of him. Finding his feet. Keep going Kai!
3 goals in 4 games
his sea legs are under him. flashes of bundesliga kai, ghosting past players and playing between the lines. his quality is slowly rising to meet his effort. More of this please
In good form now, hopefully he keeps contributing.
and just to add, I think there's money in the jesus-havertz two man game. jesus dropping off, havertz running beyond. that is fucking hard to mark if they get it right, and there's been signs of it working in the last few games
Gazza M Also feels like Ødegaard can drop back slightly when Havertz does his job, which fits him better.
Couldn’t see the game again but happy for this guy!!!
QuincyAbeyie happened quite a bit in the game. Not sure I'm a fan of it, felt like he spent to much time deep.. Different option to have I suppose.
QuincyAbeyie maybe. don't want to see too much of it. ode is most damaging close to the box. he's the only player that can pick killer final third balls, and his finish is very good too. final third ode always trumps middle third ode for me
Doc yeah people were going mad cos Ode wasn't contributing when he dropped off. There's certainly a balance issue that needs fixing. Zinny helps.
Happy for him, you can see he looks a lot more confident on the pitch. Still think there’s another level in him.
glad he's not looking like shit anymore. looking like a 30m player now. i'll be fully on board the kai train when i see him hit a ball sweetly into the back of the net.
He's been more than decent for a few games in a row, hopefully this continues.
swider I like his mentality. He takes responsibility when the going gets tough.
When he scored the equaliser he immediately took the ball and ran to the centre circle even though there's half an hour left
Gazza M he should definitely be in the final third , but I like him better when arriving late into the box than when almost playing like a second striker like he's done a few times this season.
Clrnc Well, he's been as awkward as a baby giraffe for most of a half season but he's always gonna put in a shift at least.
