Great video again! You summed up Tooney really well at the end- she's a really intelligent player with a bright future. I feel like she was unfairly criticised in a poor united team, like you pointed out she is capabale of creating great opportunities, her teammates were just not giving her the ball. Feel like she could have a really bright future with England
Thank you! I agree, I think she was the scapegoat for a poor and disjointed United team last season. I think Sarina is the coach that really knows her strengths and backs her to start
I can't find the words to describe how much I enjoyed this video, the combination of your knowledge, wit and sense of humour is just perfect for me👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
One of the most talented in the sport as well as one of the most beautiful of all women soccer players. As with ALL players, sometimes opportunities just fail to appear on the pitch. But when it does she takes full advantage of it, far better than most would, and is a tremendous asset to her team and to Team England on the world stage.
Bro this video is so good and I love how you make football tactics not boring but actually interesting. Ella Toone is most definitely misunderstood; I think Mark Skinner made Tooney carry a lot on her back. I am glad you you made this video; you summed it up very well. As always I love you sense of humor!!
Thank you so much!! Last season yeah Toone had to really carry the team, half the goals she scored were solo efforts as well, literally dragging her team through the mud. Glad to hear you enjoyed the video!
United without Ella would be 5 places lower down the table. She's like the Bruno of the womens team. Looks subpar because of her inconsistent teammates. Statistically she's still one of the best CAM's in the league. Deserves more respect man.
Thanks so much for this. I've been trying to say these things to anybody who would listen for the last year and a half, and now I have this video to point them to. I get so frustrated when fans complain that she was "invisible" during a match, failing to realize that it's not her fault: Too many of her teammates are playing with their heads down, looking at their own feet, and not giving her a chance to do her magic. I don't think she'll ever leave United -- it's in her blood -- but she would actually be a much better fit at a team like Barcelona.
Yes please point them to this video!! I agree, I don't think she'll ever leave United for as long as they want her there. When there were rumours about her going to Barcelona in the summer, it made sense, just imagine her playing alongside Bonmati, Patri and Putellas. She's always good with England and I think Sarina so far has been the best at maximising Toone's strengths. Thanks for watching!
Another excellent video on one of my favorite players. I love watching her type of player in a game. They just know where to be. I appreciate you taking the time to put this together. Thanks!
At last, someone who talks football and gives a real analysis of Ella Toone's game. So much criticism without knowledge. Tooney is special when she connects with her football. As a 10, being creative (MC/MCO). Her reading of the game and her filtered passes (finding space) is underrated. Apart from that he has good ball striking (outside the box) he should try more. I agree, his teammates don't pass him balls (ManU/England) because of mistrust. Because of her losing the ball (that's what containment and team pressing is for) and they punish her by not playing her for long periods of time. Disconnecting her from the game and creating a lack of trust (she generates mistakes). Mainly in Lionesses they don't trust her and they don't know how to promote her on the pitch. Add to that the fact that DT Sarina doesn't scold them for not using the 10 in the system, she gives them too much freedom. You gave a perfect example with Lucy Bronze. The turnover in the World Cup final goal against Spain is because she didn't pass the ball to Tooney's movement (see the play) and that play was worth a World Cup. Although to improve I would correct him with training: Loss of the ball. More ball retention (pressure support). Power in his shot on goal. Great analysis, best regards 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you very much! I agree, I think she needs to work on ball retention and shot power. One thing I wanted to mention in the video is that I think Toone's influence gets progressively less the longer she holds onto the ball. She thrives off instinct and anticipation and she does release the ball very quickly which is much needed in an England team full of dribblers.
Even if it doesn't benefit Tooney, retention is necessary in a 10. In more physical games or with quicker transitions that break your team (system). And you need to clean up areas and slow down the pace of play to reorganise. 👍🏼
@@itzel.27 Yup, she's great for defensive transition, but against physical oppositions, she'll struggle. Like against France during the qualifiers, found lots of space but seemed to be dwarfed by the physicality of the French
VsFrance she played well and vsSweden (2nd game) she was out of the game (physically). It is difficult for her because of the pressure with faster and stronger marks. Affecting her retention because she doesn't know how to cover the ball with her body (vital) and must apply more physical strength (legs-hip).
She's got plenty of power in her right-footed shot, but I'd like to see her put more work into shooting with her left. I think she too often passes up an open left-footed shot to cut back and take the shot with her right -- and defenders have learned to expect this and adjust accordingly. She is definitely capable of scoring with her left foot, but seems to lack confidence in it. While I'm at it, I'll say that the other thing I'd like to see her do is put in more work at the gym to build upper-body strength, so she isn't so easily muscled off the ball by bigger, stronger defenders.
8:09 "Maya Le Tissier commits the foul because she already plays for Man United back then" 😂 was as a highly underrated joke as Tooney's "cerebral" game 🙌 Ella Toone is one of my all time favourite footballers (and sport personalities, I can listen to her podcast to no end) because of the reasons you've listed in this video, thank you for producing this analysis for all to see! Truly a once in a generation talent. It's frustrating to watch her upset during games when her teammates couldn't see what she sees on the pitch; her mind runs a couple steps ahead of everyone else, with unconventional ways to beat her defenders. I'm a lifelong Arsenal fan but I was sad for Tooney when Russo left; they worked together so well on and off the pitch. Thankfully Man U recruited the right players to surround her in the attacking half to compliment her game this season. PS. Just subscribed to your channel, I'm glad UA-cam algorithm brought your video to my home feed. Thank you for producing such excellent content on women's football! -red.
I'm glad you caught that joke haha! Last season was very frustrating to watch, and most of the goals she scored were from her own individual effort rather than a team play. Thank you so much for the kind words!! I'm working on another analysis video now
@ShadowFootballYT hahah the joke was as slick as Tooney's chip shot in the Euro's finals 😸 And I agree, last season was tough to watch indeed, even Arsenal only had a few moments of "beautiful football"; most of the time they were very stagnant, passing without intent or purpose. Pale in comparison to the top tier teams such as Barcelona, Lyon, Wolfsburg, Bayern, Man City, or Chelsea. Despite being an Arsenal fan, I follow most female teams in different leagues, WSL, Frauen-Bundesliga, D1 Arkema, etc. so I'm grateful to see more female football oriented channels such as yours. I'll definitely be watching! 😃🙏 -red.
@@redmisery That chip shop will live rent free in my brain forever. Feel free to check out my previous videos, I did a few game analysis videos involving Arsenal. Thanks so much for watching!
Great review, with some comic moments for light relief. That Jermany moment was made all the more funny by the reaction of those around her, and the fact she laughed at it too. She seems to revel in the image of the thick, but supremely talented footballer, more commonly associated with mens football. Analysis was logical and engaging. We often don't realise how much work and creativity a player shows throughout a match in a highlight reel, especially those just showing the goals. Football is a team game, and Toone is clearly a team player. This video makes clear that when Toone is playing with other talented players who compliment her she is very effective. That is necessary in top class football. Perhaps you should consider doing more analysis like this of female players, as you are obviously good at it.
Toone is very much a team player, I think at United people are expecting her to conjure up her magic every week but sometimes it's really not her fault if she can't. Her Euro final goal vs Jermany will forever live in my head rent free. Thanks so much! I do have more videos out on my channel if you'd like to check them out. I'm currently working on another video now!
Loved the video on Toone! Really helps to gain perspective on the type of player that she is now compared to when she first started out at Blackburn, however one thing caught my attention during the video. You said that last season an a 4-2-3-1 system, she was asked to facilitate and finish a lot of attacking plays for United, do you think that she would've been better helped in a 4-1-4-1 system to interchange with the lone DM in that formation with two advanced midfielders with some sort of technical ability to recycle the ball, interchange in and out of possession, or add to the press to lessen the amount of importance that 4-2-3-1 system hinged on Toone, what do you think?
I think the issue with that team wasn't the system, but more the personnel. What United were missing last season, especially the first half, was Lisa Naalsund, who was always on the bench. Miyazawa too. Players capable of linking Zelem to Toone. The gap of mentality in the midfield was the issue, and I think in a 4-1-4-1, Toone would have to play in a deeper role which she can do but doesn't utilise her strengths at all. She's great at playing a couple yards out from the opposition defensive line and if she's dragged elsewhere, that kind of nullifies her game. Thanks so much for watching!
Tooney's off the ball movement is the best in the game... Shes a fantasic player and yes she doesnt get the credit she deserves. I hope she doesnt struggle for too long after losing her dad ❤
OMG someone had to say it. Bro, this makes my day. Toone has to be one of the most interesting and intelligent players. However, people who don't know football thinks she has to be this tricky grace Clinton, or fast Fran Kirby like type of player.
@ I remember when they asked her which player she was more like in the men’s football and I was screaming Thomas Muller at my computer. Then she said KDB
I could, my next video I'm planning to make is going to be a look at Bompastor's Chelsea so I will probably mention Reiten in there. As for a full video on her, I have players ahead in the queue but I will add Reiten to the list.
great video man! glad to see some people recognize tooney, hurts me as a liverpudlian that she plays for man u but so happy to see her be appreciated. could you maybe consider analyzing the downfall of Bayern Munchen frauen?
@@nicolelaubbussalleu8103 They're looking alright at the moment and their Champions League campaign has been good. I think if they drop to the bottom half of the Frauen-Bundesliga table then that would be concerning, but for now they seem to be doing well
Thank you! As a United fan I admire lots of City players, I actually have a Hasegawa analysis in the queue for videos to make so I'll try to get that out at some point.
I feel like she will be better if a new manager comes in sooner than later. This season she has often been played out of position. She will get better as the season moves forward...
I think Skinner has been experimenting with how best to use Terland, Toone, Bizet, Galton, Clinton, Geyse, Miyazawa etc. He needs time to figure out who should play where. Toone has been deployed at 10 and on the left which I can see why, but I think Skinner has largely settled on her at 10 which I think is the right thing to do.
Poor form?! Ha. They expect fireworks every time. She saves those up for when she needs it. Her strength is attacking mid-field general. If she trusts the players around her or the game is going well, that is what she does. She doesn't seek the limelight, the glory. When she goes crazy it's because she's pissed off. She gave the new superstar strikers at Man U time to settle in. They didn't. Tooney's patience doesn't last long. At club she will be Gerrard, a long serving adored captain. Who turns crunch matches. Right now she's Gerrard after Owen left. At country she is the Gerrard that should have been. Because she's so unassuming and happy to let others score, and will stay at Man U. She's undervalued. For my money, she's Ballon d'or material every year she's fit. She's a big reason we got the Euros. Those crunch goals got us through. And she's the reason we'll get the WC. Just like the FA cup, next time she'll be pissed. And like Gerrard, people respond to her. Stanway, Russo, Walsh, all play better when Tooney is in a bad mood.
i think toone should follow müller to bayern -- she would really thrive in jermany. this was a super enjoyable watch! there was so much...i don't know how to say this...love, i guess, in this video, while the tactics and humor were on point as always. in full honesty, i still don't quite rate toone and i think england will have massive problems next summer if she's in the starting xi rather than her clutch supersub role, but she's obviously still a very good player. and if she ever decides to leave europe, i know of one club that would be perfect for her: utah royals. the royals are on a mission to score 100% of their goals from outside of the box, so toone would fit right in!
I think she plays the best when she's with England. I wanted to focus on Manchester United for this video, but I have so many examples of her movement and runs with England where players like Walsh, Williamson, Stanway, Russo all notice and actually play the ball to her, which could be a separate video. Playing with top class players elevate her game a lot more and they bring Toone into the forefront because her movement is rarely ever noticed if you're just watching a game. I have to make this video with love because I think she's been unfairly criticised due to people not fully realising how good she is. If you really want to see how good she is, next time you watch a United or England game, just focus on Toone, don't watch anyone else, you'll see just how good she is. Thanks for watching!
Toone has not been good at all this season. If she was playing for a much better club with a much better manager, then she would be doing much better. She does have the ability to be way better than she has been this season, but not at Yanited, nope.
No, she's overrated,and Daly should still in the England team.Tusso and Daly were brought of in the world cup final.But Bronze was the weak link and should have been dropped.However, Daly is a terrific player, and Tone should not be included,irrespective of being Russo's best friend. Russo is brilliant.
Gonna have to disagree with you there unfortunately. Daly retired from the national team, and she plays a different position to Toone. I think there are lots of 10s for Sarina Wiegman to choose from (Park, Kirby, Clinton), but I think Toone is so different to all of them and she works really well with Keira Walsh because she can spot her runs, just like the Euro final goal. Russo is brilliant though I agree, will probably make a video on her down the line.
Great video again! You summed up Tooney really well at the end- she's a really intelligent player with a bright future. I feel like she was unfairly criticised in a poor united team, like you pointed out she is capabale of creating great opportunities, her teammates were just not giving her the ball.

I have to make this video with love because I think she's been unfairly criticised due to people not fully realising how good she is. If you really want to see how good she is, next time you watch a United or England game, just focus on Toone, don't watch anyone else, you'll see just how good she is. Thanks for watching!
@@ShadowFootballYT will do!
Thrive in jermany would she? ….haha.
i just got the biggest brainfreeze seenig dutch wearing white and england wearing neon orange. O.O

2:21 god no xD no words to describe how wrong
Toone has not been good at all this season.
If she was playing for a much better club with a much better manager, then she would be doing much better.
She does have the ability to be way better than she has been this season, but not at Yanited, nope.
No, she's overrated,and Daly should still in the England team.Tusso and Daly were brought of in the world cup final.But Bronze was the weak link and should have been dropped.However, Daly is a terrific player, and Tone should not be included,irrespective of being Russo's best friend.
Russo is brilliant.
Gonna have to disagree with you there unfortunately. Daly retired from the national team, and she plays a different position to Toone. I think there are lots of 10s for Sarina Wiegman to choose from (Park, Kirby, Clinton), but I think Toone is so different to all of them and she works really well with Keira Walsh because she can spot her runs, just like the Euro final goal. Russo is brilliant though I agree, will probably make a video on her down the line.
Toone and Russo are good friends are they? Na, it’s bit more than that, know what I mean nudge, nudge, wink, wink!
@@DerekLangdon-w9eyou wish
Liverpool, can you please recruit Ella Toone?
I hope not haha
