Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain Player Thread (M)

Helped him having both Thiago and Fab playing, together they provided good cover and a good base for Ox to have more freedom.

Wouldn’t disagree, having them two behind anyone would make your job easier but I’d also think it’s rhythm again that’s helping, he’s been so stop start for the last couple of years that only playing regularly will help

He’s completely different to any other midfielder we have, his instinct is to drive beyond the forwards and get involved in the opposition area. He try’s “risky” options other midfielders don’t which is why at times he loses possession
But credit to him and the manager/coaches that he’s thinking more defensively than I’ve ever seen him, dropping in to do that side of his work, the clearance early is a prime example of that.. it was a brilliant piece of defensive midfield work

Agree but Ox also had great defensive efforts.

Loved seeing the Ox having a bit of a run in the team - does seem like he’s one of those players who needs a few games to really play himself into form. Might we see him a little further forward in the false 9 with Jota and Bobby carrying knocks - seem to remember Klopp playing him there in pre season…

Finally, that's the Ox we want to see. Hope he can get in a real rhythm now and also start contributing to the scoreboard more often, now his confidence is up.

Games games games is what Ox needs. If he can stay fit from those games he will start to show what he can do.

Lads been brilliant. as noted above, a run of games defo helps him.

Rhythm and all that stuff.

This is his best form since before the injury. Says how hes matured, because he isn't scoring goals like before, and yet he's still having amazing impact.

Wonderful team mate and hopefully getting his just due to contribute again, like before. Must be hard to be injured during majority of our success. Here's to hoping he stays healthy. Class when he is.

Took him a little while but he's really starting to look the business again. Long may it continue!

I also liked your post because you're right. Although I have my views on these players they're here and there's nothing I can do and complaining doesn't help.

Obviously the more games  Ox plays, gives him the chance to show his true worth to the side !

Never ever rated him David, even before he had that nasty injury.

he is one of those "young players" with huge potential who you suddenly realise is 29 years old and 4 years on has 91  first team games and  has scored 8 goals.

That’s a fair assessment Walt, think we’ve all had a few of these over the years… There’s a term I use in greyhound racing called not trained on. A greyhound is classed as a pup till it’s 2 years old, show great ability but then doesn’t improve in its maturity stages… Some useless info I know but said it anyway.

Thing is, you have the ability to do it but somehow Salah10 keeps surviving.

If people got booted for constantly posting the same annoying thing you’d have been gone a long time ago though 😂😂

Ox was coming along very strongly before his injury. Not that you would, but if you were to look at our '17-18 season when we made it to the CL finals  he was immense, both in the league and CL, running with the ball powering through the midfield and unleashing rockets from outside the box.

says the guy who has spent the past few days almost exclusively in the FSG and Salah threads complaining about the same thing over and over

Glass houses and all that.
