The Coaching Bible

Hojlund has previously given the likes of Saliba and Gabriel a tough time and despite being criticised so heavily for his 'rawness' when he is in the mood to run he channels and puts in a shift, he can really work even the best CBs hard as he is a combination of height, power and to a lesser degree dribbling (this needs to be seen more). Whilst he didn't win most of his duels clean, it was the impression he made on the opposition which was important. Should have done better with his chance though.

Pre match, I was concerned whether Dalot would 'attack the space' or would he keep going back inside onto his right... these concerns were unfounded as he used his left foot to great effect and reallly just went for it, bursting past Trent early into the game and setting the tone, It really set the tone for the remainder of the game and it meant Konate had to come out wide and leave VVD isolated against Hojlund who was in the mood to work hard.
