If we're going with Forson as a F9, I would like to see both him and Amad get a half each. I would definitely like to see 30min cameos from both players in the Forest game as well.
Wasn't it 18 million?
For now, yes. But don't be surprised if the new football structure has a different opinion.
I reckon EtH wants to leave as many players in the positions they've performed in as possible. Forson starting isn't so much of an issue for me, as he's a straight swap for Højlund. The worrying bit would be who comes in if/when the on-form Garnacho is subbed (probably Antony).
True, if ETH is sacked everything is on the table. And of course all we see is what happens in competition, not what happens in training. Maybe Amad is shit in training though it’s hard to imagine that that is the case.
We’ll find out shortly but isn’t it more likely Rashford will be playing up front than out wide?
Banished may have been a poor word choice... my bad.... but nevertheless hope he gets some more chances soon.
What different opinion? You can have whatever football structure you want but manager is the one who picks players. What do you think that new Dof will say to manager; "that player is good. Play him!".
When Forson came on against Wolves he played up front in place of Højlund, although Rashford had also gone off for Antony at that point I think.
I wouldn't go that far quite yet. We still don't know for sure who the manager will be next season, so then it could be a blank slate for anyone.
The issue isn't Amad starting. It's him never getting any fecking minutes ever, after Ten Hag blocked him from getting a loan.
Yup should have come on for Forson. Is the type of player we need to be a good footballing side.
100% on Dalot. He's the right back, he knows he should defend better than that. Least Amad tracked back.
Not at all. Amad’s run back was terrible and caused the confusion. Usually when a winger does that is because there’s an overlap. Amad just ran right in from of Dalot and past Iwobi to empty space. They were both absolutely fecking awful for it.
Thats just his face.
You ever tried sprinting, putting the breaks on and trying to shift your momentum? It’s just physics, nothing either could do especially at the speed it was happening. People thinking otherwise have probably never done any exercise in their life never mind played a sport.
Would you deny that Amad is better than Antony, Sancho and Forson? And given Rashford’s dire performances this season, Rashford as well?
No he’s not. Garnacho is.
Garnacho is a better RW option by a distance. And I would probably say Antony also is, unpopular though that may be (and much as I don't rate Antony). I think Amad will turn out to be a nothing player
The kid has played about 40 minutes combined all season after coming off a long injury. We give other players months of playing off form before judging them so I think it is only fair to judge him after a couple of performances in an actual team. He actually added structure by being a presence on the right wing which transformed our attack simply by spacing things out. We have no good options apart from Garnacho who is already our best left winger, so I see no reason to rush into any decisions with Amad.
