He looks assured.
Now, what I will say is the two games he's had, City and Arsenal, are set up beautifully for him, you know, because you're playing against two teams that have the lion's share to bought.
Now, by the way,
I'm delighted for Manchester United.
They deserve that after the year they put down against Ruben Amram.
So I'm not having to go up Man United.
There's bigger tests for them coming up the road.
How do they fare when they're the team with the lion's share of the ball?
You know, so Arsenal, huge chunk of possession.
City, huge chunk of possession.
And the United get the counter-attack.
And I think that role is, I mean, the way Mbwemo and Bruno Fernandes are lining up now is just a thing of beauty.
You have to give them that.
you know, and like I said, the back four get to stay intact, Harry Maguire is insulated, you know, he's got his two number sixes in front of him, you know, they don't vacate it very often, the spaces have now been reduced for Casemiro, he doesn't have to cover huge swathes of ground, like I said, Harry Maguire is insulated, Luke Shaw is insulated, hence the reason Dorgu's coming back with Saka, invariably, you know, Shaw should be out one-on-one and Dorgu might be covering on the inside, whoever it might be, but
You know, it's set up beautifully.
And then in Brian Mbwemo, they've got an absolute diamond, like a real diamond of a player.
And the way he's linking up with Bruno and the understanding they have, the ability they have to counter-attack out of that is fantastic.
Listen, his ability to work two centre-backs.
Now, I think Arsene's two centre-backs are probably the best in Europe, to be honest with you.
But, I mean, the way he still worked them and he made it difficult for them and a lot of skewed clearances, a lot of, I mean, he sticks that arse into people and he just pins centre-backs, strong centre-backs and he squats down and he's very hard to shift.
