was hojberg set under-rated?
everytime i see him
and im watching irggt now
hes so fucking slow its ridiculos
and i dont see anything stand out thats particularly note worthy
does he have great stamina
or tw
or is he really strong?
he just looks quite effecient and capable, but nothing imeditaly stands out other than lack of speed
and agi

well he's actually not that terribly slow when chasing after the ball over the distance in a straight line, but he's so cumbersome on the ball he can't even demonstrate it when punting, doesn't try to kick it ahead by a lot, and really basic da, might go lower tbh
i'm really impressed with his tw and workrate at tottenham, he moves a lot and in a smart way so yeah i'd say these are his defining qualities, and hecs responsiveness kind of compensates the atrocious agility and acceleration, he gets exposed all the time 1 on 1, he looks to avoid being challenged in that way, but against city it was clear how much he struggles with it
abd he's not really strong for his size but adequate
agility is really awful, even 65 might be a tad roo high
very nice passer too but nothing exceptional
josev replied to f9Today at 10:32 PM
nice, looks very close to what i'd give him
overseerToday at 10:33 PM
thanks
yeah i noticed he seems really big and brutish
but he seems reluctant to use it
i guess he cant commit well due to agility
wtf
he has 77! average passes
thats fucking insane
thats gotta be highest in the world this season for a mid?
josevToday at 10:37 PM
could be
overseerToday at 10:37 PM
id say by some distance
josevToday at 10:37 PM
he's in a really fine form
overseerToday at 10:37 PM
those are insane numbers
I think thiago was usually only around 70 or so
josevToday at 10:37 PM
probably third most important player after kane and son
overseerToday at 10:37 PM
rodrigo is 90
but thats city
hojberg 77
locatelli is 85 wtf
fabian ruiz 74
parejo 75
frenkie 71
all those players in 90s
hes that good?
josevToday at 10:41 PM
tw-wise? i'm not sure, i'm haven't been studying them closely to compare
but he's surely among the best i've seen at tottenham recently in that regard
maybe i could compare him to eriksen's movement quality in his best years though completely different roles
overseerToday at 10:46 PM
interesting
ill go through a few mathches
not watch a few mathces
just skip around at random times, see his movement
get an idea for it
josevToday at 10:47 PM
pau attention to kane too if you can
tw i mean
i wonder what you'd say about it
overseerToday at 10:48 PM
if its too hard to see i wont bother, some players its really fucking hard to see
wtahcing shefield for norwoods was fucking awful
they never had the damn ball
cfs tend to be hard to see unless you watch alot
but its alot easier with dm/cm
josevToday at 10:50 PM
yeah, i see what you mean
i wanted to up him to something like 84 for this season, it's exceptional for a cf but i think it's justified in his case. though i'm not sure and it may be him just playing deeper overall
overseerToday at 10:54 PM
id say go for it if
also, im notcing hojberg can looking quite fast lol
he has horrendus speed most of time though
not sure if its acc or agi
hes just sluggish as hell
josevToday at 10:55 PM
i'd say agi
acc could look decebt in some cases
overseerToday at 10:56 PM
so is he under-rated?
hes extremly low on psd
josevToday at 10:56 PM
kind of but he would ve overrated generally speaking if we go much higher
i've just updated to 70 ts to replicate thatbhe's at least capable
left acc where it was though
