But the same players got us to play UCL this season. Make it make sense.

It's always funny the way you usually acts surprised when these players show you their true color.

Go back 8yrs if you won't see the same pattern playing out. Play well for a certain period of time and then go back to being shit. Rinse and repeat.

Jamiuokolaa:
Even the new ones are bad?

We only signed Tielemans, Santos and Baleba this season now, apart from Tielemans, all the players that played in that Everton games started on Sunday against city now.

And the new ones are not necessarily bad but whatever they drink in Carrington that's making them lazy, they have drank it too.

nitrogen:
The most painful thing is they will only practice short passes after the one day off. No intensity, no running, nothing. Carrick go dey smile like fool with the players.

Them be soft boys.

nitrogen:
With someone else at the helm, that squad would not have lost a 2 nil lead against Brighton nor would it have lost against a 10 man City.

Baba we lost to a ten man Everton last season with a different manager and a different formation, the only constant is the players.

Your delusion about the ability of these players is laughable.

Tielemans came to this club and in his first interview, he said he was surprised at the training session compared to Aston Villa he was coming from.

Him no know say na soft boys he come meet. Doing serious training is a no no.

Soft boys for life.

Leyqute:
Someone needs to be sacked for that terrible performance.

Are these guys volunteer workers or what? This Edward guy has been at the club for 7 years.

Heads need to roll abeg. I don’t care who’s

I'm just waiting for that off tomorrow first.

Whoever approves off days for these fools should be arrested and sent to the mines.

nitrogen:
So, who should get a major share of the blame here, Carrick vs the players? If we swap players with Brighton, would you trust Carrick to still win that game?

It is not a binary thing now.

Carrick is mid and some of the players are mid. They are not mutually exclusive.

afrodoc:
That concept is beyond the brain power of many people here.

Na agenda nitrogen wan push.

Meanwhile I've replied sir

nitrogen:
Are we back to this 3-5-2 nonsense? I guess we should bring Amorim back.

Amorim ko, amuludun ni.

The point is that whether 352, 433, 4231 or 4141, these players are the same. If you like play 4-4-2, Dalot will remain Dalot, Rashford will remain Rashford e.t.c

eph12:
Carrick is probably secretly playing 352

Some people say na 352 dey make our players dey play nonsense last season.

Abi no be these same players again. Them no fit deceive me again lai lai

Carrick is smart though, he wants to quickly exits these lowly cup games, so he can concentrate on UCL and the league.

Master strategist ni Carrick

patrickmuf:
See how far apart Heaven and Yoro were for all the goals we conceded...

Carrick, God will punish you and your wife...

Leave his wife now

izzou:
Taiwo Awoniyi just collect degree for Coaching

Raumdeuter, what do you think?

Go to your thread

Carrick lost at home

Amorim lost at home


Agenda don cancel agenda

Lana1:
A day off after a disasterclass is how you know there is no accountability at that club. No consequences. Just play rubbish and immediately move on and pretend like it didn't happen.
It will be more of the same for the rest of the week and in the next game.

I expect another day off tomorrow.

You can't be stressing these soft boys.

You get match on Wednesday, you give your players off on Monday.

Foolish players, manager and board.

I'm not even surprised about Carrick at all.

I kept saying we've watched this movie before with Ole, better not to repeat it. Turns out Carrick is even worse than Ole.

I said I don't mind Maresca then compared to Carrick and them use me laugh for here.

Someone that cannot survive in Boro shouldn't be the coach of Man Utd.

nitrogen:
Brighton is leading but the sense of urgency is still there. Our team got a day off two days ago.

Our keeper don suffer.

spillo say na because them no want make them get injury. Who suppose get injury if not these bastards?

Jamiuokolaa:
We don't have a starting CF oh

Na why i really cant blame Carrick for the false 9 ish atimes

Why did they loan Chidi Obi to Willem II then?

Mount Omo ope

patrickmuf:
Does Rashford think he is a ghost? Why does he try to run through bodies?

Same MO everytime. Zero improvement in his game.

Lacey Omo ope

superfelix:
i agree. i just felt the should have started against city

I agree.

superfelix:
bench Sesko in the league. start him in the efl cup. wow

He needs to play him into form. Benching him won't do him any good.

Yoro and Heaven partnership. TrembleChamp, Carrick don listen to you oo.

Mbeumo on the bench, Bruno on the bench, Cunha on the bench and Dorgu on the bench too.

Carrick don listen to everybody so. Na Dalot remain

CrystalTiger:
Oversabi no dey good..

Something that he's tried three times already and it failed..The only goal Cunha has this season, he started at the left..

Let's wait for tonight's game sha..Let me see if he's actually as stupid as he wants me to think..

Nothing can surprise me with this coach and players bro. Nothing. I expect everything, I expect nothing.

The annoying thing about this fôölish false 9 experiment is that we will be attacking and there will be nobody in the box. Both Cunha and Bruno will be waiting for one useless cutback at the edge of the box that's not coming.

afrodoc2:
Yeah, it is a loss.

I don't think the club did anything wrong in his particular situation to make him leave cos the club has been bending over backwards for a while now to accommodate his dad's wishes. Some might even say the club was far too accommodating of them.

The boy was for a short period with you guys, and then Chelsea, and then West Ham, and then joined us all before he turned 12. His father is notorious for his antics and i have touched on it several times here.

Having said that, an impartial assessment is that he might be making the right decision for his career. It all depends on where he ends up next. We have mismanaged a lot of talented academy players of late and when they flop people will start saying that they were never good in the first place.

IMO if he ends up at Barca, City, Bayern, or even with you guys his football development would be better, and his father won't have the cachet to be making ridiculous demands at such well-run clubs. The 2 clubs that would be mistakes are Real Madrid and Chelsea. Those are our ogas in terms of mismanaging young talent.

The whole situation is just indicative of our current place in the footballing world where a 15yr old unproven player and his father think that they are doing us a favor. The father does not rate us and was always going to try to move the boy to a club he thinks is bigger and better either this year or next year. It is what it is.

I agree doc, the way we have been mismanaging our academy players, if I was his dad too, I will fight to get him elsewhere asap before the club loan him out to Rotherham in League one.

It's only this club I know that send out it's talented academy boys on loan to unknown improvised club in league one or league two calling it development. No wonder we end up selling them for £1m and below. A very useless board.

INEOS and Glazers will fully run this club into the ground, every aspect of the club is in ruins currently including the female team. Might not take a little time before talented academy players refuses to sign with us.

See Chidi Obi that should be on the team as back up CF or even loaned out to a correct team was sent to Willem II in Netherlands, I'm not sure he has played 90mins of football since the loan. If I be J.J Gabriel papa, I will pack my boy bags without even informing the club.


Meanwhile I'm still waiting for your response.

nitrogen:
It’s ridiculous. A day off when the next game is tomorrow. Not even a light training session. This ‘jelenke’ style of management will not help us at all. wtf!

Carrick and the club are not serious.

afrodoc2:
He is registered to be with us until the end of the season, but it is not a pro contract, so the compensation won't be much. The compensation will be even smaller if he goes to a club outside the UK like Barca.

He is asking the club to deregister him and cancel his registration. Apart from the Barca links i mentioned in my previous post, he turns 16 next month at which point he can legally move to a European club, and i think this move is timed perfectly.

Having followed the guy's career since his Kid Messi days at age 10-11 there was always a big chance that he was going to leave prematurely. Even if he stays this season there would be another drama next year or the year after. It could be over minutes, salary, jersey number or image rights. At least until he is independent and out of his father's control.

Maybe if he moves to a top club like Barca or Madrid or even City his father will be controllable.

Na wa

afrodoc2:
The dad has always been a bit passive-aggressive. Anybody who has followed the boy's career knew this was coming at some point.

The dad was a footballer who didn't reach the top level, and he seems to be living the diva life vicariously through his son.

I also suspect Barca because the boy appears to be a fan of the club and his idols are Messi, Neymar, Yamal. There is also the Nike connection. Barca would be best for his football education.

Don't rule out City though. They are the masters of under the table payments, and they nearly got him at the start of last season.

Is the guy contract up? Can we sell him for any money at all?

See the aggressiveness that Enzo and Anderson were using to press and move the ball forward on Sunday.

Our own players will be romancing the ball and taking almost 5 touches to release the ball.

Maguire will want to pass and he will drive the ball close to the player he want to pass to before releasing the pass.
