After the match against Newcastle, there was a lot of criticism from fans and the manager. In the Giallorossi the Dutchman can be the first striker like in Bologna or the attacking midfielder and then return
And now also to Manchester they understood that it’s practically over, that it’s really better for both of them to separate and go their separate ways. Because even after a victory there are no smiles but only criticism and discontent, then – precisely – it means that it is better to move on, that that story has truly come to an end, writes Andrea Pugliese in La Gazzetta dello Sport. On Friday evening, in fact, the Dutchman came on half an hour before the end of the match against Newcastle, going to replace the Slovenian Sesko. A case that was not taken well by the Manchester fans, who at the end of the match had criticized the performance of the Dutch striker was very good. Many i negative comments on social media and on the sites of Red Devils fans, many “disconcerted” by the change and by the “senseless wandering around the pitch” of Zirkzee. Who was also reprimanded a couple of times by coach Amorim, for the lack of pressure on the opponents and for the lack of dedication shown on the pitch. For many fans, Zirkzee “already has his mind elsewhere, it’s better for him to go to Rome straight away”. In short, for many Manchester United supporters the sale it wouldn’t be painful. In fact, it would probably be a solution. And there are already those who hope that next Tuesday could be Zirkzee’s last time with the Red Devils, in the home match against Wolves.
Around Rome, however, they can’t wait to embrace him and be able to have him at their disposal. Especially Gian Piero Gasperiniobviously, who had also had his eye on him in the past, when he was in charge of Atalanta. The Roma coach has already spoken to Zirkzee, explaining how he intends to use him. Yes, because the thing that convinced Roma to go hard on the player was above all his offensive versatility. In fact, the Dutchman can cover all three roles in the Giallorossi attack: that of center forward and that of attacking midfielderboth on the left and on the right. With him, in fact, Gasperini would have the right man to really play with the false nine, a position where Dybala or Baldanzi have alternated so far. Zirkzee, on the other hand, knows how to tie up the game, shorten towards the midfield and then re-attack vertically, but he also knows how to create spaces for insertions from behind. But if Gasperini then needs to play with a real center forward, perhaps a little more structured also from a physical and athletic point of view, then Joshua can also go and play as a sub. More on the left than on the right, also because Gasp likes to play with the attacking midfielders with inverted feet, capable of returning and leaving the field to the overlapping midfield fifths.
