Welcome to debriefingSky Sports column in it Adam is a house A mixture of data and opinion is used to think about some of the main stories of the latest Premier League matches. this week:
- The main role of xhaka in Sunderland
- O’reillly effect in Man City
- It highlighted the inadequacy in Amorim
Why XHaka sign the season
Even before kicking the ball, Granit Xhaka looked to Sunderland as if it might be the summer signature. The feeling that the midfielder belonged to the Champions League. Who knows, maybe next season, this will be the Sunderland club.
On Saturday, the victory over Nutingham Forest occupied the black cats to 11 points from the first six games. This is not only the best transferred by a newly reinforced team in ten years, but it is the best points in Sunderland at this stage of the higher aviation season since 1967.
Xhaka was the player of the match, as he assisted the only goal of the game. In fact, Switzerland helped each of the last three goals in Sunderland. Only from Everton Jack Grilliche has more help in the Premier League this season.
The emerging partnership with Noah Sadiki was a special force from the RGIS Le Bris team, running a young xhaka. Sadiki covered more than anyone else on the field against Forest with tracking data that turned out to run 11.67 km.
This allowed Xhaka to focus on control, using all his experience to manage the game. Many of the tannah this season was about Elliot Anderson from Forest, but it was Xhaka who was the distinguished midfielder on the field in the city.
It ranks among the 20 best players in the Premier League, objections and ingenuity headed by Duels, and the property won third place, and was passed in the last third paths, long passes and great opportunities created. And breathing.
So, while Sadiki xhaka, who was 33 years old on Saturday, helps diminish compared to how his teammates are relatively inexperienced. The leadership skills of the former Bayer Leverkusen man make others better. “It is normal for him,” Lu Brice said Sky Sports.
“He is very good on the ball, he is really smart, and knows how to manage different situations in actual time and is really important to his leadership. He is a future coach, I think. We need to use it. It is very important for a small team like us.”
This is already clear. Modern history indicates that success in Sunderland will remain in the Premier League. Early signs are that this team can aim up. Looking at the role of Xhaka in making this feeling possible, it is the signature of the season so far.
Oraili is the Man City talisman
The introduction of Niko Oraili to the starting lineup in Manchester City has a turning point in its season the last time. Even Pep Guardiola, who noticed the role of the young man in this rise in form, may be surprised by the same vision of this season.
City suffered from the defeats of the Premier League in August, and Guardiola chose to replace Ryan Ait Newri, the injured of Nathan Aki early in Tottenham. But since ARILILELI called Manchester Derby, it has been greatly improved.
There will be five wins from five in all competitions, but for the goal of stopping Gabriel Martinelli in Arsenal and change since Urieli came in the mirrors the record last season when City won 83 percent of his matches with him and only 50 percent without him.
“I think since he started playing, we lost only one match, in the FA Cup final against the palace,” Guardiola said on Saturday evening. “We have been defeated all the time. So Niko helped us a lot, and it has improved a lot with his aggression, details and ball.”
Watching their 5-1 victory on Burnley’s side, which was focusing on Kyle Walker high and wide to provide Martin Dubava’s air goal in restart, this aggression was clear. Aurelli competed, at a height of 6 feet and 4 inches well, and also made four games for his team.
This was like all his colleagues in the city with 20-year-old Orlealie, where he got five touches in the opposition penalty fund-which was better by striker Eryng Halland and the city’s wings, Jeremy Duku and Savinho.
O’reillly played the role of an attacked midfielder at the age group, while talking about him developing into the role of the Holding, but in the left back has made his way to the team and got a new contract. Guardiola said: “I am really happy,” Guardiola said. “Niko grows a lot.”
There are other elements why his presence helped, most notably the transformation of Josko Gvardiol to the partner, Robin Dias. City has received six goals in 12 games since April with this husband together. But thanks to the young man for his role in achieving this.
The prince’s exposure is not exposed
It was impossible not to think about Manchester United from Robin Amorim when he sat at the press conference of Vitor Pereira on Friday before his team’s trip to Tottenham. The Wolves trainer was asked if he might turn from three to three to four instead.
“I am not here to satisfy myself. I am here to help my players, to help my team, to increase the level of my team, dynamics, to make them all comfortable in their roles,” Perira explained, after seeing his side his victory over Everton in the Carabu Cup plays four.
“I am not a coach who has fixed ideas, I am a very open person to the analysis, and I am talking about it if we are fighting in the system. If I continue the same problems and do not try to find solutions, for me, I am not a coach, I am not a manager.”
Pereira has chosen as the fourth for the first time in his administrative career in the Premier League in Tottenham, which may surprise Thomas Frank. I definitely did it when he made the call to return to five with Goalless in the first half.
Frank then said: “They have changed to 5-3-2.” “This made it more difficult. Not that we didn’t know they could do so, but of course how we could transfer the message to the players?” The element of surprise almost brought wolves an unlikely victory over Tottenham.
Although it may be strange to highlight the team’s tactics that takes root at the bottom of the table as an example of Amorim, it is natural that we wonder whether the unwilling of the United coach’s desire to adapt does not make it more difficult for his players but it is easier for opponents as well.
In the Premier League, the teams are constantly achieving to exploit any weakness and managers talk about having to develop constantly to stay one step forward. The game has clearly changed the elegance of this season, even the best teams that have to change its approach.
But this is not united. Keith Andrews Proston knows exactly what to expect. Amorim’s approach does not change, but as the team continues waiting for successive victories under Portuguese, the results of the suspects will remain as if he could not adapt.
