Amad has been off it recently
Has nothing to do with Sesko

What do you mean by off? Yes he has been off but he still provides what no other player in our squad has

nitrogen:
The front 3 seems uncoordinated. The right wing is not effective at all.

Start Sesko start Sesko e don start am na. Amad is the most important player in that front line. Carrick is showing some tactical naivety.

We Amad who give us defensive solidity and presses very high and also us width . But no our fans started protesting to start Sesko because he came on and scored few smash and grab goals. Micheal Carrick foolishly listened. Nonsense

Mrviktor:
This broda

Amazing striker oh. But my God.
He complains about every pass that doesn't come his way.
Even when he was offside he just stops running and starts complaining

Even after he scored he was angry and didn't celebrate

Moaning up and down.

I am not particularly the fan of Osihmen but if I am him yesterday i would have slapped that guy call Yilmaz and Sane yesterday. Infact juve made it 2-0 after Yilmaz fkunked an opportunity to put osihmen through.

Rashford regen. Similar positives and negatives.

Born in Germany but moved to England to join our academy at about age 10.

He had injury issues that I suspect were linked to a growth spurt. He is now about 6”2 and very quick.

He actually made his Under-21 debut last season at 16 before he had ever played Under-18. Hopefully he is past his injury woes.

I just watched a few clips of him now. The boy is actually good we need to develop him properly.

Wow the guy is very good. What particular negatives about Rashford does he have?

engrelvis:
I think is too early concluding Carrick is the right man for the job.l feel he is going to do wonderfully well till end of season.If he is retain next season will be the real test.Moyes was tactically better yesterday.He practically render our midfield useless.The way Cuhna was marked yesterday made me remember Herara(nt sure spelling is right) on Hazard during Mourinho stint with us.

We missed Dorgu who always stretch the opposition with his work rate before Cunha enters in the second have. Dorgu, Shaw, Amad and Dalot inverts very well that is why Bruno has the freedom in our first few matches.

And we also miss Martinez. In our Match against Everton Line breaking passes responsibility was left for Mainoo and Casemiro in the second phase yet they are no where near Martinez who does it at first phase and expertly too.

I like the tactical reading of Carrick and his team. If given the opportunity to find the right more available fit they will do well. I am not saying they should hire him though

Afrodoc2.

Abeg Doc who be Noah Ajayi sef wey de drag attention with JJ Gabriel? The guy has been fantastic recently

afrodoc2:
I think the club is doing all they can.

He starts most games and is one of the least rotated of the players.

The 1st team coaches including Carrick attend most of the games if there is no fixture clash letting him know they are watching closely and have interest in him.

He has been called to 1st team training several times to allow him get a feel for it.

The next thing is to give him a debut as soon as he is legally able to, which will be at the start of next season. He will most likely go on the tour with the 1st team and get a league debut early in the season. He might still spend most of the season in the academy but that senior debut and modern Man Utd record is a must for him and his dad.

The club might also be sorting his dad privately but that is another matter.

Excellent , i can guarantee you that if is City they will keep him

afrodoc2:
I think the major issue is that the boy himself seems to be a Barca fan. He is a Messi/ Neymar/Yamal fan.

He is also a Nike Ambassador and those ones have been doing kurukere moves to get him to Barca.

So how do we keep him, at least till we are able to sell him for a huge fee and reinvest. Afterall VVD is a man utd fan but ended up at Liverpool

everton4life:
I swear. That goal just had my jaw falling to the floor.

It's how to keep him away from the other academies that are circling around like vultures that is the Koko now. Then there's the issue with his dad. I hope the stories I heard about his old man are just baseless rumors.

If the dad wants money. Give him. Thats how to secure talents. These kinds of players are rare to find. City Paid Haaland father same thing Barca did for Yamal father.

afrodoc2:
Daniel Armer. Very good passer and reads the game well. He is left footed unlike Maguire but unfortunately you are right that he is slow like Maguire. He was also not physically strong last season but he has put on muscle this season and is much stronger.

His lack of pace probably means he won’t make it here. He has everything else. The same issue with his partner Mills.

The most complete CB in the academy currently is Ngwashi but that one is a doctor. I have not seen any major weakness in his game but he appears only once in a blue moon.

I like the boy Halefu abi na wetin be the name saf.

This fixture flr Chelsea no go funny oo

Its a good result though. If Liverpool and Villa fail to win tommorow then we are evens no damage done then

Amad will pay for the sins he committed today. That is a Garnachoesque performance

No be this AitNouri our fans de cry say we no buy? Veey rubish player. The day I knew he is rubish was when Akor and Osayi Cooked him at AFCON

odizeey:
We learn every day sha. E no go better for all those yeye system coaches.

If we are not making Carrick permanent we should look for a coach that loves the idea of winning.

See Flick. As things bad for Barca the guy always finds a way to win.

Nothing concern Fergie with system. Just gather ballers sharpen your tactics and have strong winning mentality. Shikena

chrisley024:
of what

Dying minute equaliser.

Thank God omo fear wan finish me

Afrodoc2, abeg whatsup with that guy Orozsco abi na wetin be him name sef, wey we sign. they said he is the nee Caicedo. Do we have hope or abi mke we mind our business?

Because that Leon guy we bought that was crying as he was leaving Colombia, even U21 sef de hard am.

LostMyZeal:
But they Said City was the real test considering they had picked up a rhythm. After seeing what happened to City, they said Arsenal would be the realest test when it comes to strong teams considering their home record. After that, they said Fulham.


where precisely is the destination of this goal post?

Veey soon Grimsby will be the real test. 😀😀

Leyqute:
I’m a bit worried about Amad. He’s not as dangerous as he once was. His ambition and hunger has taken a hit. He still puts in the effort and his work in the team is evident.

But I’d like him to be more daring in certain moments or even have the belief that he can make something happen. Instead he just takes the safest options in most cases when faced with some difficulty.

It’s almost as if his growth has stagnated. Hopefully it’s another stage in his arc and he can become extremely dangerous in the next months cos I know how talented he is.

Amad ia still dangerous and is one of our best and most important players, his Ambition is still intact, he is a human being so will witness reset sometimes, he is putting in the rigjt work and attitude

afrodoc2:
Yes, Sesko has the box movement and aerial presence to work well against low blocks, and Cunha has just enough dribbling, invention, long-range shooting, and pace to trouble any block (low or high). He just needs to work on his touch, which can sometimes be loose.

Amad can work against any block as well. Once he improves his finishing and starts targeting and hitting the far post area of the goal, e don be for EPL LBs.

You are correct on all the players. Amad seems to be the only person in our team that can comfortably take on defenders. Even Bruno is good too against low block.
I think the key issue we had versus low block is the pace of our defenders If we get a proper press resistant Midfielders and Pacy defenders we will prosper against low block teams. And I hate to say this, but Arsenal strategy of using setpieces as an alternative to unlock teams like that is what we should try to use tpo

afrodoc2:
The manner in which he does it is also Important. If he just does Jama jama and wuruwuru to the answer to get it then that is not sustainable or easily repeatable.

In all our excitement we should try avoid repeating the Ole mistake.

If he does well give him 1 year contract. With an option to activate 1 more year. Madrid has Arbeloa now Chelsea has Rosenior so Ole’s mistake is unlikely. All these hipstar coaches dont work most times.
Any coach not named Flick, Enrique or Pep. Then we continue with Carrick

afrodoc2:
Not as explicit as your post but when i mentioned Carrick's coaching crew it was Holland i was talking about.

Carrick with Boro was known for setting up his teams to create chances but they also conceded chances. At least that is what heard. So, this our defensive solidity is probably partly due to Holland.

Woodgate has also been mentioned as a very good coach too

afrodoc2:
I think you are right about Holland. That is why I mentioned Carrick’s coaching staff in an earlier post.

Holland is said to be a very good defensive organiser who did some good work at Chelsea and with the national team.

I think given the pedigree of Holland and I also heard that Woodgate is very good as a defensive coach. I think if we add 2/3 more coaches with variable skills, they will make a formidable coaching crew to suceed. Even Arteta was also inexperienced when he joined Arsenal. So why not Carrick if he does well till the end of the season.

afrodoc2:
Yes. If he delivers a convincing top 3-4 finish playing good football and front foot football especially against the lower teams he will be in contention. If that happens then we can't reject him for another unproven manager like Glasner, De Zerbi etc. Only top tier managers like Enrique, Flick, Nagelsmann should be considered if Carrick does extremely well in this interim period.

But like you said, the real test will come against the lower teams. Can he device a way to consistently breakdown low blocks and can he find a way to inspire the players to consistently play with the same energy and discipline against unfashionable teams.

5th place will inevitably deliver UCL football, considering that Laliga and Bundesliga have 1 team each knocked out of the UCL already, and Bilbao and Napoli are struggling.

If Carrick can get 5th place which should get us UCL, i will suggest he stays and we back him in the summer.

Jamiuokolaa:
Haha

I think we still have Chelsea away and Liverpool at Home.

I go like see our approach vs minnows in like 4 games... 2 home, 2 away.

Then maybe....

Chelsea away is the issue, we can beat Liverpool at home. For Chelsea away we can play haram football and scrap a draw. They are our rivals for the top 4 race

Scamorim said if you want to change the idea you need to change the man. Scamorim na werey i swear

Leyqute:
He has scored against City, Arsenal and Liverpool, all in his first season for us. Na Chelsea remain.

And Spurs

We were veey cowardly at first and we got punished. We need to remain compact, but we have to take the game to them. This Arsenal team is not really better than us with much. They are just a more settled team
