"The good stuff" against a team down to 10 and 9 men, deflated after the first sending off.........hmmm.
I'd give Diallo a taste sooner rather than later.
You, who know Diallo in and out, and can predict that he will make a har trick on his debut regardless of wether the opposition is Man City or Bristol City, would, if you were hired as manager of MUFC in place of that PE teacher, have started Diallo against Watford or Liverpool, no doubt.
The PE teacher who mysteriously got your job did for some reason unbeknownst to me opt for not doing that. Probably because he is a PE teacher.
I have only read peoole I don’t know say things I couldn’t verify about Diallo, and seen some highlights from some underage games, so I would have no idea. Hence I’m basically guessing what a PE teacher would do. I’m guessing he would be more confident in his artacking players after watching his team score an unprecedented number of goals against ten men, than he was after watching them fail to score more than one goal in the two previous matches. You maybe wouldn’t, based onyour own experience that every single time you have played against ten men, you have scored a goal on average every ten minutes. Lacking that experience, I thought 9-0 was quite nifty.
