there is plenty of space for him. Y’all just hate Bruno for no reason. He has good games and bad games ps he is still our most creative player.

I get frustrated with him too sometimes but I think yesterday he had a good game he didn’t make pointless long balls he only played them when he was certain an player was there for it and I don’t think he missed any. He was good on the ball. Off the ball I think he has work to do in that position.
You wasted so much energy only to later realize that I was talking about Zirkzee not Bruno. grin

And even if I was talking about Bruno (which I wasn’t) it is lazy of you to assume that the only reason a player is criticised is because I just hate him for no reason.

If EPL rejects turn to the cornerstones of Serie A clubs, doesn’t that contradict your whole premise?

I hope United get a good offer for him in January..
I hear they still rate him in Serie A. Hopefully we can sell him back there and recoup some money back. We can just take it like he came here for a 6-month loan that did not work out.

That Serie A is washed. Ever since people like Darmian, Benatia, Immobile, Koulibaly, Kim Min Jae started dominating awards in that league i knew the league was a condemned league.

Ugarte and Bruno were okay in midfield, but there is a critical problem with that combination. Neither of them is very comfortable receiving the ball under pressure, meaning many of the potentially juicy passes that Mazraoui and the LCB were attempting to make could not be made.

If Mainoo can sort out his stamina problems, he would be a key cog in that midfield. Otherwise, once better opponents close mark our WBs the way they did to Antony in the 1st half we will struggle to progress the ball.

There is no place for him in this formation. His time on the bench won't be too long. He might be offloaded in January sef.

After being supposedly out for 3 weeks, Lisandro Martinez is back in full training.

Wonder why.
It won’t be first time we have prematurely rushed him back.

Even this injury was picked up by the Argentine medical team not our club medical team.

Leyqute:
Smart?

I’d replace Shaw with Martinez and put DeLigt at CCB even though I’m concerned about Martinez’s tendency to not cover wings well. .

Mainoo’s mobility is also a concern for the no 10 position. Should be okay if he rotates with Bruno. Everything else looks good
That CM combination will be coughing up the ball like a TB patient.
Bruno and Mainoo should swap positions, and if Bruno can’t play that 10 role he can move to the bench.

A fit Shaw is better than a fit Martinez at LCB because of Martinez weakness defending the flanks solo. The problem is that a fit Shaw is as rare as a dragon.

Mount whose body has been breaking down for the past year will struggle in that wingback role.

why is there an agenda on a coach that just coached his first game on this board? I don't understand. Not like we got him from a rival club or something, didn't even say something bad about the club or fans to to the best of my knowledge.
Let me help you out.

1) You have some people who are aggrieved with the way ETH was attacked here, especially with regards to what they perceive to be impatience from fans. So, they want people to apply the same energy against Amorin. A case of agenda-driven beef.

2) You then have the chronic complainants and fault finders. A case of congenital beef.

This thread is becoming reminiscent of Chelsea's thread. Some individuals take up opposing positions in an argument simply because they see someone they typically disagree with on the other side. You may want to argue against this observation, but I've noticed a pattern lately where people whose thoughts are usually well-organized sometimes adopt baffling stances. Upon closer examination, it becomes clear that they do this to avoid being seen as sharing similar views with someone they dislike.

In other cases, people who feel that others have criticized their favorite players or coaches will oppose their replacements, focusing on any minor mistakes to argue that their favorite was unfairly dismissed.

The entire Amorim drama is quite amusing.

Make we dey look sha.
It is not BECOMING like that. It has been like that for years.

Ruben Amorim:

"We have TWO ways. We forget about the new idea and try to cope so next year we have the same problem."

"Or we start NOW, risk a little bit, suffer a little bit and in the next year we will be better at this point."

At least Amorin knows this.

Wo, that guy just lied unprovoked ni jare. Even if he carries all those IG and TikTok baddies, there's no how he will blow over N4m on them within two days ( If the UK minimum wage calculation TrebleChamp did is anything to go by).

The guy na banza!
Even if he carry IG and TikTok baddies and blow 4m on them, he has to compare that to how much he will blow on similar baddies in UK.

He can't waste millions kpanning baddies in Naija and compare that to his soapie life in UK, and his conclusion is that country hard. grin

The country hard, we know that. What we don't want is lamba evidence.

He needs to follow EtH out of the club. Him and EtH bought extra months on the job with that Fa Cup wins. All the team do on matchday the defenders exchange passes at the back and then Le Tissier ping one long ball from the back. Finish.
The football is worse than ETH's football and that takes a lot to achieve.

I think we have good enough players. by that I mean they are better than our league position suggests. desire is another thing. Casemiro and Erikson pivot is definitely a fail regardless of ability or desire. their positioning was good yet poor mobility meant we couldn't progress through the middle. defensively it ensured gaps appeared there and was exploited. Amorim didn't shout much instructions at the pivot and I know it became apparent to him the pair was a mistake. he didn't want to make a first half substitution either, so Bruno adjusted nearer in the center circle.
the coach was screaming more at players who could be more mobile but were taking easy options, particularly Rashford, Dalot, Amad and Mazraoui
I wouldn't really read much into how the game went until probably after four games. he should have known individual strengths by then I hope.
But our aim is not to move from 12th to 8th. Our players might be better than our league position suggests but they are not good enough for our aim of consistently challenging for league titles.

If Amorin also takes the position that the players are good enough and believes he can improve them to start challenging for titles, he will be gone in a short while. We have bought the wrong profile of player for a long time, so the team is filled with players with loads of defective qualities.

We have some players with no legs at all. We have other players with no technical base. We have other players with no work rate. An ambitious team should not have so many players scoring close to zero in some of these areas.

If I suggest we need to offload most of these players some people will say i too talk.

Shaw, Evan (he tried but his legs are gone), Rashford, Zirkzee, Dalot, Eriksen, Lindelof, Malacia (I am sorry not good enough), and Casemero needs to be offloaded.


Yes the academy players are not good enough yet but need to promote a couple of them. And get a good LWB and a striker. Next year should be the last chance saloon for Mount
For Mount it should be this season.

You forgot to add Bruno to your list.

They can't all go at the same time but some need to leave ASAP while ones that can't be sold ASAP need to have their influence on and off the pitch reduced.
