This team, which is clearly in desperate need of a center forward, has a World Cup finalist and a few failed child prodigies …
Sergio Romero
Michael Korbownik Calum Chambers Terence Kongolo Danny Rose
Jack Rodwell Phil Jones Jean-Philipe Gbamin
Ben Woodburn José Izquierdo Henri Saivet
Sergio Romero
The Manchester United goalkeeper has more appearances for Argentina than league appearances for any of his five clubs. At Old Trafford, he has gone from being the best substitute in the game to little more than a liability on the balance sheet. United could have gotten away last summer and in January, but with no one willing to pay for Romero, the 34-year-old is kicking Carrington’s heels. much to the chagrin of Mrs. Romero.
Danny rose
Tottenham’s left-back said he couldn’t wait to retire, and the former England international is practicing good practice as he waits for his contract with Spurs to expire this summer. Although he has maintained a certain level of physical form under the feet of José Mourinho. “He has been working with the under-23s, playing with them sometimes and playing well the couple of times I saw him,” Mourinho said last month. “He has made a good contribution to the children’s team and the development of the children.”
Calum Chambers
“I am very happy with Calum,” Mikel Arteta said last month. Just not happy enough to play the England defender a three-time Premier League cap. But his moment is sure to come before long, with Chambers fully fit after a knee injury he sustained in Arteta’s first full game in charge.
Terence kongolo
The Fulham defender joined the Cottagers permanently in a deal that could cost them £ 7 million, but so far the Dutch international with four caps has yet to play in the Premier League, despite being available since the change. of year. He seemed to have a good time at your birthday party last week, though.
Michael Korbownik
The teenager, playing on this side on the opposite flank from his preferred position, made his debut for Poland one day after joining Brighton in October. Korbownik was immediately loaned to Legia Warsaw, but was later withdrawn in mid-January. Despite that, and an FA Cup debut, Graham Potter isn’t planning on releasing him to the Premier League just yet: “I was hearing something Sean Dyche was referring to when you hire a player how long can it take sometimes,” he said. Potter a fortnight ago. “He brought it up with Dale Stephens and how it takes time to understand how the team is working. That’s for taking a 30-year-old from Manchester who has played four years in the Premier League.
“You think that with a young player who has come from another country, he is still developing the language, he is still developing his understanding of football in general. It’s not that easy. “
One per club: players stuck after January transfer window closed
Phil Jones
Phillip Anthony Jones is United’s only remaining outfield player since their last title win in 2013, but the 29-year-old has not been seen wearing a red jersey since scoring at Tranmere in the FA Cup more than a year ago. anus. Injuries have, of course, ended Jones’ career at United, but even when he’s in top form, the versatile England international … playing here in the role of Duncan Edwards – He is unlikely to be seen in the Premier League this season, despite Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s problems at center-back.
Jean-Philipe Gbamin
We did not want to include any player on this team who was unavailable due to injury alone, but felt it necessary to a) remind them of the existence of Gbamin; and b) because we needed an eleventh man. Gbamin is close to competing for a berth at Everton having played just 135 minutes since arriving from Mainz in 2019.The Ivory Coast international was signed to replace Idrissa Gueye and his absence was deeply felt before Carlo Ancelotti will renew Everton’s midfield in the summer.
Jack rodwell
The former England international is once again the forgotten man. Having started to restore his tattered reputation with a productive stint at Blackburn after sitting on his butt of £ 70,000 a week at Sunderland, Rodwell has not been seen on a Sheffield United squad since July. He made the bench in the FA Cup, but even on this side of the Blades, he can’t sniff. What we suspect doesn’t keep you awake at night.
The top ten disappointments of the Premier League season
Ben woodburn
The Welsh midfielder, who scored on his international debut at age 17 in 2017, became Liverpool’s youngest goalscorer in 2016, but Woodburn has been unable to maintain his rapid rise. He is currently back at Anfield, having been brought back by Blackpool, with little prospect of action this season. Woodburn still has a year and a half left on a five-year deal signed when it was the next big thing.
Henri saivet
“Well, only he or Saivet can choose, so it was pretty straightforward,” Steve Bruce said when talking about Christian Atsu replacing DeAndre Yedlin in Newcastle’s Premier League team. Which tells you everything you need to know about Saivet’s position at St James’ Park. The midfielder has not played a Premier League game in three years, during which time the Senegalese international has been earning £ 30,000 a week.
Jose Izquierdo
The Brighton striker hasn’t been seen in the first team since April 2019, but injury isn’t the only concern for the Seagulls. Apparently, Brighton would be responsible for bonus payments owed to Club Brugge if Izquierdo makes 50 appearances. The Colombia international is currently at 47, so it seems likely that he will remain on the sidelines until his contract expires in the summer.
