Who are the players that are operating at the highest level but seem to offer absolutely nothing in the game?
The one that always comes to mind with me is Will Hughes. He has been an attacking midfielder with both Watford and now Crystal Palace but can anyone pick out a game where he has genuinely stood out? His goals and assists record always appear to be low, can’t remember him doing much in terms of tackling and providing protection for players behind him. He only seems to be one of those snides who generally gets involved with arguements. And this from a player who was touted as being a future English star and linked with a huge transfer to Liverpool and other bigger clubs when he was at Derby.
Who stands out, or rather doesn’t stand out, to you?
Rashford for me.
People say he is out of form but his performances haven’t changed, he just isn’t scoring in moments.
He operates at the highest level but what he actually offers if very little when the goals dry up.
I wouldn’t call Rashford invisible though. Most Utd highlights are filled with him having about 50 shots a game whilst ignoring obvious openings for his teammates.
