Has Madueke done ENOUGH to keep his place in the starting XI?!
Nov 9, 2026
Everything else about that guy today was dangerous.
Every time he got the ball, danger.
What's your name?
Noni Madueke.
He's my man in the match.
He carried the threat throughout the game, from start to finish.
Every time he got the ball, he was dangerous.
You know, yes, he should have scored
or he should have done better with his chance that he had at the end.
That would have rounded it off an excellent performance, right?
But everything else about that guy today was dangerous.
Every time he got the ball...
Danger. All, you know, this is what you do.
When you're playing against a team that's got such a low block,
you need your wingers. You need your threat out wide.
And he was that guy, whether he came inside, whether he came outside,
he was dangerous, man. And I thought he had an excellent performance.
As I said, if he could have rounded it off, I would have given him
a nine if he could have rounded it off with a goal.
But I'm going to give him an eight. Man in the match for me today.
The most dangerous player on the pitch.
Even the goal comes from his shot. It gets spilled.
You know, Odegaard takes a chance well, but he was a threat.
Then, you know, Jamie and Thomas said it earlier,
the worst nightmare for a full-back
is when you've got somebody like Noni,
so explosive and so good on the ball, in and out.
I mean, he was good today.
I agree. If he scores that goal, it would be a nine.
It's a seven for the way that he...
Tried to just do some like Non-Zeno stuff with that goal
and it just didn't work out.
You just hit that, put it in the back of the net.
But yeah, listen, the one thing I'll give Noni Madueke
a lot of credit for is if Saka's
fit now, Madueke stakes a claim to hold that shirt down
and he's put in some good performances.
He's playing with a certain level of swagger.
