“Castagne does good in the back trio, but watch out for his versatility …”

The Red Devils won their qualification for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar by defeating Estonia (3-1). Philippe Albert commented on the meeting on television and goes back to the few important points of this part. “Benteke was present at all levels. His goal is important, he hits the post. Hopefully he would have scored three goals in the first half. When you are considered the third choice and deliver a game like that is encouraging. He has an above average trigger, he is one of the best in the Premier League. Are there any better than him? Cristiano Ronaldo, I do not see. In the 90s I would have told you Shearer Where The Ferdinands, but the younger ones don’t know them. “

The consultant pinpointed the provision ofEden Hazard who was a cut below his teammates in attack despite some interesting moves. “Hazard, technically he has not lost any of his qualities. In terms of speed of execution, we felt he was short of rhythm. He has to go through the matches. In his face to face with the goalkeeper, Three years ago he put it. Here, even the defender has managed to come back. He must acquire the rhythm which will make him regain his confidence. We can understand that, he hardly plays at Real and training never replaces the I hope to see him at the kick-off against Wales. Madrid may be able to rub their hands. It is by playing that he will regain his rhythm. “

The innovation of this match was the tenure in the central trio of Timothy Chestnuts. Requested regularly by the followers of the Devils and made possible by the abundance of goods on the flanks for this gathering, this replacement convinced the former defender. “Sober and a lot of flank activity. The connection between him and Thomas Meunier is done well. When you have 77% of the ball, defensively you are calm. There is only one mistake today, that is Jason Denayer who is at fault on Estonia’s goal. But Timothy’s versatility feels good. He can play on both flanks and now in central defense with the same ease. On the other hand, his versatility should not turn against him. Too much versatility is not good for automation. “

With a Jan Vertonghen which no longer has its speed of yesteryear and a Toby Alderweireld party in Qatar, can Castagne aspire to play the World Cup in Qatar in this position? “Castagne is also strong on the right flank. His penetrating force, the quality of his crosses are important assets. Regarding Alderweireld, he started in a more than average championship and the age is there too. Just like Vertonghen, These are players who play in middle leagues. Portugal is a three-team championship. So yes, Castagne is an alternative, provided its role is clear. “

Albert still points to the good climb ofAlexis Saelemaekers and the overall delivery of Kevin De Bruyne, boss decided on this team. Thorn Hazard Also came up well with a header, the Devils played a serious game. ”
