He used to do it every game when he first broke in, but it seems like he stopped doing it when the attackers kept missing from them and now we only see one or two of them every 10 games, or when we are desperate for a goal. His cross is his biggest weapon, he could have more assists in the league than any other player if our attackers weren't so hopeless in front of goal.
Because Loftus-Cheek and James linked up so well against Tottenham. This is something I think Tuchel deserves criticism for. Just because it worked against one team, it doesn't mean it will work against another. Loftus-Cheek was never the right player to play against Leeds at wing back. If Loftus-Cheek had to play, I would have preferred him in midfield. Maybe he could have taken the pressure off by holding up the ball with his strength, because Jorginho and Gallagher were getting bullied by Leeds constant pressure.
Thing is he could made the change in-game when he saw we were getting pressed. You would think that is a flexibility the back 5 gives you, but he just waited. It was like watching a car crash.
He's better at RWB yes, but also better than Azpi and Trev in a back 3. So the question is - Do you drop Ruben after a fantastic performance against Spurs? No you don't. You can maybe argue that we could have seen Gallagher for Azpi, and James in midfield, but I like that he gave him the start.
I disagree with this, there should be no such thing as a player keeping their spot just because they played well in the game before. Every team plays differently, so you put out the best team to deal with the tactics the opposition will throw at you. Loftus-Cheek at RWB was not suited to playing against Leeds pressing game, so he shouldn't have played there.
Ruben had a good season last season. He was very good in preseason and was brilliant vs Spurs. I've seen some people say he's not suited to play against a pressing game, but not one has offered a reason why. It's like they hear some narrative they like and repeat the same bo**ocks ad nauseum.
Not wise when you prone to giving away free kicks in the closing minutes they can get their own back.
At least one of the stats sites agrees with you : they had RLC 4th best out of our team against Leeds, behind James, Mount and Silva, and quite a long way ahead of Gallagher in 5th. The less said about the rest the better ...
