agreed, I'd say we really can't do without him, and he should have fewer defensive duties

as, I think Mecago pointed out the other day, his not tracking runners can be a problem defensively, surely it'd make sense not to force him to do that and concentrate on winning the ball back 30-yards from goal at most

  - that's not true though - he's literally been among the most creative players in the league (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Feb 21, 18:17:18
    - No it isn't enough, as Farke says. You suggest that Emi is one entity and the worst team (NCFC) - Higher Wrather, Feb 21, 19:41:40
      - Haha (n/m) (NCFC) - duke of york, Feb 21, 19:54:53
      - Buendia is creating more chances than almost anyone in the league (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Feb 21, 19:51:24
        
        But he is under performing. He should be scoring goals. It's not all about assist stats in (NCFC) - Higher Wrather, Feb 21, 19:56:04
        
        Give Farke the benefit of your insight. He may even change his view. (NCFC) - Higher Wrather, Feb 21, 20:05:47
        
        ... (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Feb 21, 21:30:34
        
        Farke may have valid reasons for not playing Buendia (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Feb 21, 20:10:11
        
        Not fully fit (n/m) (NCFC) - duke of york, Feb 21, 20:18:11
        
        yeah, that's the only thing that really makes sense (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Feb 21, 20:22:35
        
        This is simply ludicrous (n/m) (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Feb 21, 19:57:41
    - Absolutely. Liverpool prime example - comes on, creates good chance for Pukki (NCFC) - Old Git, Feb 21, 18:48:11
      - agreed, I'd say we really can't do without him, and he should have fewer defensive duties (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Feb 21, 18:59:21
        
        Still think he’d be our best number 10 (n/m) (NCFC) - duke of york, Feb 21, 19:07:02
        
        yeah, hard to disagree with that. In fact that'd probably suit him very well (n/m) (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Feb 21, 19:47:47
- Crikey, what a lot of words (NCFC) - Old Git, Feb 21, 17:42:23
- Much more reasonable when you hear the whole thing (NCFC) - duke of york, Feb 21, 17:14:33
- A very insightful few minutes of commentary (n/m) (NCFC) - Under soil heating, Feb 21, 17:05:35
  - brutally honest (NCFC) - CWC, Feb 21, 17:20:50
    - Yes. This. (NCFC) - Under soil heating, Feb 21, 17:51:02
      - that sounds interesting. Going to suggest it to my team (NCFC) - CWC, Feb 21, 17:56:26
        
        Haha! You’re already perfect after all! (Me too!) (n/m) (NCFC) - Under soil heating, Feb 21, 17:58:12
  - yeah, very interesting (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Feb 21, 17:16:53
    - Could be a kick up the arse (NCFC) - duke of york, Feb 21, 17:23:46
      - If he was overweight surely he needed more carrots? (n/m) (NCFC) - Old Git, Feb 21, 17:43:04
        
        Chocolate covered carrots. (n/m) (NCFC) - Men without hats, Feb 21, 19:22:49
        
        Veg still has calories. (NCFC) - APB, Feb 21, 17:58:59
        
        it would surely come down to whether the carrots were IN ADDITION to his meal (NCFC) - shoddy, Feb 21, 17:57:41
      - yeah, I was thinking that. toecap up the arse, followed by arm around the shoulder (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Feb 21, 17:29:03
