Gave the ball away 17 times.
So for every chance created he gives it away twice.
As I said not perfect but it’s better than it was earlier in the season.
he's just too inconsistant and frustrating, plays an incredible ball, then puts in two awful corners and gives the ball away sloppily.
However I do think his season is improving.
Individually yes. But as a team player he is not and especially in the position he plays he needs to keep the possession a lot more.What percentage of corners do you think the greatest crosser of the ball completed?
Bruno is by far the best player in the squad. It's not close.
I do not see him played countless passes when he is in good positions. He is passed when the moment has already gone. Look at the Brighton game. They pass to Pedro when he is free and not when there is no other option. Even then our players do not pass and try. to take on all the defence.Hojlund is struggling to get involved because his link-up play is horrible. Countless times recently I've wacthed as the ball is played to him, and he cannot hold the ball or play it round corners... or even just make the right decisions as to where it should go next. That leaves Bruno having to assist him everything on a plate. It's just not possible.
He's never in good positions at the right time, man. That's why you don't see it very often. He's got a lot of learning to do and time to do it, but unfortunately I don't think that's something you can teach.I do not see him played countless passes when he is in good positions.

Thats where I beg to differ. I always see him move and then the pass would not come and then he gets blocked out. creative players need to know when to pass. It is not when they want to pass but when the receiver wants the ball.He's never in good positions at the right time, man. That's why you don't see it very often.

Most of the goals he has scored have come from rebounds or scruffy pieces of play and just getting lucky. Those are the facts, go watch them.
I don't see any evidence to support your claim. Fernandes has amazing creativity - do you honestly think he has missed all of these great opportunities to play in Hojlund? It doesn't make sense. If Holjlund was making intelligent runs Bruno would pick him out, it's like his best ability - vision.Thats where I beg to differ.

Different players have different attributes. Down the memory lane, lots of players especially Fletcher would rarely pass the ball to Berbatov. Now if anyone says he does not have a decent first touch and a good ball control `I do not know what they have been watching. You pass the ball when the receiver wants it. Not when the passer wants it. Now even Bruno gets frustrated when he wants the ball and he does not get it. Zirkzee does not play in the same position as Rasmus. Zirkzee comes deep and plays the runner in if there are any.I don't see any evidence to support your claim.

I'm afraid it's starting to look like the players don't trust him. A good example is when Zirkzee plays, they all manage to find him. He gets involved, comes deep and plays with them, building up an understanding, and is capable of what Hojlund is not. Nobody wants to pass to a player that cant control a ball well and pass and move, they know doing that is almost certainly going to give the ball back to the oppositon. He needs to work on his close control when under pressure, learn to guard the ball well and then make a run. This is also why Rashford is horrific at CF, because he doesn't have those abilities either. Trust me, they're needed.
I play football with a group of lads every week and we acquire different players each time to make up the numbers - the new guys get a chance, but as soon as people see they can't keep the ball under pressure they don't get passes anymore. It's just the way it works.
If you think Bruno doesn't understand that, I give up.Different players have different attributes. Down the memory lane, lots of players especially Fletcher would rarely pass the ball to Berbatov.

One of which was overturnedThird red card of the season. His first touch was poor that led to the second yellow.
