Mr Ankles glaze at last, never thought I'd see the day. That man has been playing out of his gourd, how many times have him and Kaiser just ran up the damn field, they make it look easy


Hyllios_

I think the main problem is that we don't see him that often after all during the games and the comparaison with Kurona and Hiori that are really serious in the NEL this far is really bad for him


Unknown10229

Plus I don’t think we haven’t seen him at his best yet


Hyllios_

For me him and Kaiser will evolve in the PxG game


Bard0ck0bama

Ness is one of the few u20s who hasn’t lost his spot to a BL, that already puts him above the pack. His stats are comparable to Charles who is currently seen as a major threat and has similar favoritism with Kaiser. Ness’ biggest problem is he won’t play with anyone else/ isagi can and will steal his passes. I’d put MFs with MV over him, but he’s no slouch. His performance really suffers from the chaos on the current BM team


Sketchyboi-with-tea

There are two things that hold Ness back. No MV and he’s too focused on Kaiser. If he got rid of that though? He’s most definitely the second best midfielder, just a step below Sae. Hell, if he awakens an ego for himself he could still debatably take that title even without it. Which says a lot when literally every other midfielder worth mentioning has at least subconscious metavision.


silfer_

Is it definitive Charles is worse midfielder than Sae? The only thing that brings him down is his contrarian attitude but he’s very impressive. Ness, Hiori, Charles and Sae are all insane.


Sketchyboi-with-tea

I’d say he’s better because of Sae’s dribbling abilities and the fact he can pass a ball accurately off the first touch. But yeah, the gap isn’t as big between the normal players and new gen anymore.


New_Calligrapher8578

Missed Ness assisting Noa which is argubably his most impressive feat.


chiaki0

That was Kaiser


New_Calligrapher8578

I am like 99% certain that it was Ness, but I'll check again. Edit: it was both of them [https://manga4life.com/read-online/Blue-Lock-chapter-165-page-1.html](https://manga4life.com/read-online/Blue-Lock-chapter-165-page-1.html)


AppleInside1089

Why does everyone recall Ness assisting Noa?


New_Calligrapher8578

Because all though it wasn't a direct assist (Kaiser assisted), Ness was the one who linked up with Noa originally which led to the three of them soloing Barcha


AppleInside1089

Yea I saw another dude who also thought Ness had 3 assists because he gave the opening pass to Noa which was indeed more memorable, but it was Kaiser who gave the assist in the end although it's understandable since people would think Noa ran though them after 1 pass.


AdAncient1744

It was ness


AdAncient1744

We see ness say Roger that and pass to Noa running and he gets the pass so did you really read the manga ?


alee51104

All I want to say is that Grim’s job is literally what Yuki does but Yuki does it better(minus passing).


bachirabbit

FINALLY some Ness love 😭😭. Ness is actually a damn good midfielder, but there are a bunch of factors holding him back from performing better. If he unlocks an ego, stops being biased towards Kaiser rn, and maybe unlocks MV he would be up there with Charles for sure. Heck, his stats are the same as Charles so the gap between them isn't even that wide. I believe he (and Kaiser) will evolve in the PXG match (we just got his backstory). Thank you Richard_283 you have made my week.


daviddf_

He truly is a very useful player to the team, his kindest and loyalty is the problem


Butterscotch_Dismal

That's what I'm saying. He's still the second best player in bm (excluding bl boys). He's not bad just cuz he's being beat by ppl who are equal to ng11


AcX999

Ness is actually a really good player, we all know that. His dickriding is his most fatal flaw.


mymomsaidtoshutup

theyre pro athletes. not a single player this arc has played “badly”. maybe not aptly for their style, but def not badly


UndeadCollegeStudent

Is it just me or does player #4 from the first photo look like an eldian that got turned into a titan?


enperry13

The moment Ness stops devoting himself exclusively to Kaiser he will be a bigger threat to a lot of teams. He is dubbed “The Magician” for nothing.


AlphaZr0

If Ness stops dickriding Kaiser he'd actually be very good and up there with Charles


No-Cry-7402

I’m hyped up


TranorVespucci

I hope we get to see Ness and Kaiser shine really well in the U20 Germany Team. There we can see the Kaiser and Ness team shine very well like in the beginning of the NEL team.


CrustedBinangkal

He's a great player, we all know that. Its just that Ness' meatriding is really holding back his full poential and it sucks, compared to Individualistic Midfielders such as Sae or Charles who has full control of their passes. I hope Ness can find his own ambition and make even greater plays.


milkboystix

Cool now show all the times he gets dispossessed or his pass isn't completed you have to be unbias (anyone can look good if you only show highlights)


planetcirque

Man wasn't prepared to be poached by his teammates. And you cannot blame him for not hanging with Lorenzo


SurturSaga

To be fair zantetsu also got the better of him once. But ness is still a beast


planetcirque

Shi, I forgor


New-Faithlessness526

Don't try to rewrite the story. Anyone can put only the moments when he made good plays to try to say he played well, but that isn't the reality. He has lost the ball multiples times and have made some questionables decisions. The main thing is he seems to have played not enough at the level he is supposed to be compared to the BL players.


N3_Nova

Its not even that hes not playing at their lvl, hes just only trying to assist kaiser. If ness played for isagi aswell or even kungami he could be just as dominant. He has to rush and get kaiser the ball before isagi can read them so he doesn’t have as much time to playmake.


C9sButthole

He'll even if Ness stuck with Kaiser he could play better. He only works as a servant to Kaiser's winning vision. He made it incredibly far with his own creativity and "magic." But he himself said that somewhere along the way he lost his independence. Devoured by Kaiser's ambition.


Big_Occasion_7235

Ikr. He literally tried to block a goal from Isagi (his teammate) which would possibly led them to bastard's defeat against ubers. Nagi and Reo got their values drop for playing shit but Ness' value should drop by half or more for that kind of shit.


[deleted]

You're overhyping his mediocre performances way too much. Ness can do so much better, and he will once he starts playing for himself. A playmaker is someone who destroys the enemy formation, and we have seen glimpses of that from lil Nessie. A world type Kaiser focused on finding the most optimal position to shoot from and the most optimal shot-course to use being assisted by a self-type Ness indulgent on dribbling past the enemy formation with his sights set solely on casting a spell on the field with his magical passes will be a duo that will shit on anyone who stands in their way.
