Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 His best game for us yesterday. But if you're reading this PLEASE DON'T SHOOT AGAIN!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WATBB 1,524 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 When he's the 'finished article', he'll be playing for Arsenal or a top team in Spain/Germany. Lucky to have him, the only 'flaw' if you can actually call it a flaw, is that he's seeing the game 2/3 moves ahead of everyone else, and other team mates aren't reading it. If everyone was on the same wave length... holy fuck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Buffalo 120 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Excellent game yesterday. Although I think the whole team had an extra spring in their step. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Ranger 1,554 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Gedion starting tonight for the USA-U23s in a friendly in Brazil against their U-23s. Gedion is playing the #10 role in a 4-2-3-1 tonight. At half, he has been pretty invisible so far with the USA down 0-1As someone stated in the halftime analysis..."For those wondering, Zelalem is in fact on the field. No need to put out milk cartons with his face on it." Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More penetrating passes offered up by Zelalem tonight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More penetrating passes offered up by Zelalem tonight.He has had a better second half...but that was after Brazil went down a man and more space was opening up. I disagree on him being active in the first half though but you are correct...he is playing in his correct position tonight as the number 10 especially with good wingers.

Inigo 32,676 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I'd rather we use the likes of Law/Haliday and our own youngsters like Thompson TBH. He'll be a good player one day but do we need him to get out of this league? It's not like he's actually done a great deal.The relationships developed with Arsenal, Spurs and the likes aren't just about this league. They'll benefit us in the future, especially if we can send back an improved Zelalem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
