Baptism of fire for Fredericson. Facing Cunha and Ait-Nouri and he has Lindelof to help him. grin

Is Kovar on loan? I thought he was sold. Wonderful goalkeeper he is, but i would prefer we go for Sels of Nottingham Forest and Kovar can be second choice...
Yes, he was sold. I have not really watched Sels like that, but many people seem to think he is ready for the step up.

patrickmuf i actually mentioned him a couple of months ago.


afrodoc2:
No. He played Under-18 yesterday.

With the Heaven transfer it means Kukonki has slipped down the pecking order.

He just turned 17. Heaven and Fredricson are the most experienced CBs in the youth setup and are more likely more ready for senior football.

He is 26 now. He has only been good at Wolves from last season and Brazilian players loss steam at 29 max. Especially forward players, the example are just too much. He will cost about £65m, he is giving me an expensive flop vibes. And funny how nobody is talking about his attitude, he can mess up a crucial game with stupid red cards or suspension. I might be wrong though, but my instincts about him is not good.

For me what is holding us is a clinical striker, who is a press demon. Then get someone who is about to break out, our scouts need to work hard and smart, Cunha looks like and easy scouting.
I agree 90%. The only thing is that his red card record is actually good. It is definitely lazy scouting.

How do you see Kone?
I think they are intentionally keeping him away from the senior team until next season. They rarely show Under-21 games but from the little i have seen he has potential. He struggled with the tempo of Under-21 earlier on in the season but seems to have started dominating over the past few weeks.

Ofcourse, i know You are not saying he should be a starter next season. I am just afraid for him, if he didnt kick on immediately and the backlash he might receive considering his age, If he will be here, he should just be having Cameos like Endrick in Madrid.

Amass has adapted to the physicality very well and he very composed. Kamason is even more physical than Amass, So he will be fine, He is almost the same age with Heaven, long term injury just delayed his development. I want to see Morehouse at some point this season too.

I think Obi, Kamason, Kukonki, Amass, Moorehouse and may be Montato as Graduates this season is a good number. Not forgetting Kone too.


Yes, to that list. The most important thing for them is that they all have natural positions in this Amorim formation and system. Amass, Mantato, Kamason will be interesting though.

For me apart from Confidence, loosing Rasmus to fitness issues wouldn’t be a disaster anyway.
I still think Obi is not yet ready, he is very young, most strikers don’t start performing at young age, he is still very very young, a lot of our impatient and unintelligent fans will kill his confidence before his career even start, I have watched him closely at the youth team, while he is fantastic, the senior team will be a big leap for him. We need to take it easy with him, he needs one more year in the youth team, and another year on loan before we consider him for the senior team.
I have made my research and discovered that a lot of the elite/Top strikers we have today in football, started pulling in numbers at 24/25ish. Kane, Lewandowski, Marmoush, Gyokeres, Isak, Osihmen, Lataro Martinez, I can even add Vardy, Ivan Toney, Thuram, and Olie Watkins. Even the Mateta and Cunha most of our fans are calling the club to buy were not world beaters at 19/20. Infact Wolsburg sold Osihmen for €3.5m in 2019, to Belgium, one year later Lille sold him for €76m to Napoli. The story of Marmoush and Gyokeres are the most remarkable.
Some of these youngsters who are balling now will later tail off, we saw Jovic, Felix and Ferguson, Brighton was quoting 100m for him 1 year ago. That is why i dont want Delap or Etikite and their likes.
I am not asking us to play Obi as our starting CF next season. No matter what happens we need to have a new starting CF next season. I just think it would be nice to give him 1 or 2 starts this end of season. If he proves himself this season, then he might be our No 2 striker next season.

The major issue though is that losing Ramus to injury will actually be a disaster in Europe. Even if it is to come on as a sub or come on as an extra attacker if we are chasing a goal. We can't go into the semi-finals and finals of a European competition having no recognized striker in the squad. Obi is ineligible. Zirkzee is injured.

Also, you can't with on one hand say that we need to give him minutes to boost his confidence, and on the other hand say losing him (in a competition in which he is our only striker) is not a disaster. Do you want to play Maguire as CF for 90-120 mins or is it Kobbie you want to use for 90-120 mins?

Ultimately i will trust the decision of the coaching staff. I didn't think Amass was ready to cope with the physicality of senior football, but he has done okay in that regards SO FAR. If Amass is ready, then i believe Kamason is ready as well.

I think we should rest our important first team players this weekend. 120mins is no joke and need then rested for Europe.

I have been shaking my head at the things I've been reading.
United fans complain about everything but resist change
Very interesting set of people
What happens is that United fans are too emotional when it comes to players that they like. They will either truthfully not see the truth or maybe they see it but refuse to acknowledge it.

Am not getting you. Are u saying it was our incompetent forwards that has been preventing Rashford from proving his mettle?
No, i am saying Rashford being our best forward is not necessarily something to brag about. What we need is to get forwards better than Rashford and hopefully we can also offload him (and the other incompetent forwards).

I believe he was just joking. Southampton are likely going to be one of the 3 worst teams in EPL history in terms of points total.

And we are NOT lucky to have Amorim. He is the one that is lucky to be Man Utd manager. Who is he and what has he achieved?

He came in during the midseason and is still quite young. Hopefully he will improve significantly by next season.
