Extremely annoying. He's injured all season, has 1 promising sub appearance where he does far better than Antony and then isn't seen since. Can't even get a chance against a league 2 side. I fear he'll be completely wasted here.

 

[thegregster]

Wasting his time here. Should get himself a loan and see what happens with INEOS in the summer.

 

[Neil_Buchanan]

Manager has no balls, hopefully the next man gives him a chance.

 

[NewGlory]

Amad should have started today. So annoying

 

[Sylar]

Honestly think when he gets a chance or minutes (whenever that is) he basically needs to score a winner to get noticed by eth and into the team

 

[soapythecat]

I think both Amad and Pallestri are too direct for ETH. Can’t be anything else as both have showed more than the Brazilian dud when they’ve had a small opportunity.

Similar to Hannibal. Was part of the best performance of the season, albeit against a weaker CP team and then couldn’t get a sniff…literally a sprinkling of minutes at the end of matches. Envisage (at this point in time at least) Amad just ain’t gonna get the minutes on the pitch to even have a chance to impress

Garnacho and even Rashford to the point of frustration are much more direct than both of them.

Well he was injured/ill after that promising sub appearance too. After seeing Mainoo and Garnacho I think if he is that talented we'll see him.

Eh it's different. Hannibal showed energy but little quality, and didn't do much in the championship on loan. His competition is Bruno. He's never going to play much. Amad had a great loan where he clearly looked above that level, and on the pitch you could tell his class and maturity on the ball right away. His competition is Antony, or Garnacho if Rashford is on the left. He should be playing much more.

 

[Red00012]

Seems like he was on the bench to make up numbers today .

 

[Superunknown]

It might be frustrating to be a squad member in Ten Hag team. You have team members who never get substituted regardless of score or performance. in rare occasions, you will get those odd three minutes where you have limited time to make an impact. even if you impress, the next game you get 0 minutes to at least build a momentum

I don't really understand what Ten Hag is looking for in players. The only real players who I think have forced their ways in due to performances were Garnacho last season and Mainoo this one. Although, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Mainoo gets relegated to the bench now that Casemiro is back.

 

[DJ_21]

Ye I think it’s a case of him staying fit. He can’t definitely claim that RW position if he can get a run of games.

 

[Gordon S]

Amad too direct? He has a lot of patience, he can play simple passes, he can make good decisions, he can slow things down if needed. He, just like Kobbie, seems tailor made to look good for this team. Can only guess he needs a few more sessions to get the sharpness back.

 

[Gandalf]

Seems like he was on the bench to make up numbers today .

His lack of involvement today only makes sense if he is heading out on loan and was only named in the squad in case of emergency. I don’t like the idea of sending him out though when it seems clear Pellistri is heading to Granada. We are going to be very light on cover for the forward positions unless the plan is to use Forson and God forbid play Bruno on the right to accommodate the return of Mount.

I think it was a choice of 2 between putting him , Pellestri and Harrison on the bench . Pellestri is going out on loan so bringing him on wasn’t an option and perhaps he thought the shit surface might not have suited Amad.

 

[Sarni]

Good job by ETH keeping this guy in check. He has to learn discipline and needs to know his place.

 

[andersj]

I really like Amad too. He seems like a talented player with ability. But I must say I think there is more than a fair chance that he is far from good enough. EtH seems more than willing to give young players a chance. Teenagers like Mainoo and Garnacho have plenty of minutes. He has also started Mejbri, Pellistri and Kambwala in the PL.

Amad was good in the Championship last season. He had a few exceptional involvements and maybe even a game or two, but his general play was far from exceptional overall.

He is never going to get a fair chance under Ten Hag. This cannot be any more obvious. If Ten Hag stays Amad will have to leave simple as that

 

[Donut]

ETH knows the more he plays Amad the more obvious it will be he’s better than Antony who he’s protecting and hoping he’ll come good.

 

[Adamsk7]

Hasn’t he just come back from being injured/ill? On top of being out for ages with an injury? Personally I just think we are easing him back.

 

[Marwood]

He has to be fit and available for a stretch of games. Hasn't happened yet. Not at United anyway.

 

[Borys]

As always with Ten Hag, there's benefit of the doubt - Amad has been injured lately and we don't know if he has fully recovered.
And as always with Ten Hag, you can smell something is off and I wouldn't be surprised to hear about Amad leaving permanently.

 

[Zed is not dead]

Im not too fussed about him not being played tonight.

To some extent, this game was the first time Ten Hag was able to field his almost strongest 11, and it’s natural he wants them to play together as long as possible.
He most likely wanted to give a taste of the cup to Forson, something he doesn’t need to do with Amad.

If anything I think he’ll play Amad much more in the league and we’ll start to see more rotation between him and Antony now that the latter is fully back in the squad

 

[mikeyt]

ETH knows the more he plays Amad the more obvious it will be he’s better than Antony who he’s protecting and hoping he’ll come good.

I genuinely believe this to be true

 

[MrBest]

Amad will play, people need to calm down. He's second choice RW, coming back from injury and needs to worm his way back in.

 

[Flying_Heckfish]

ETH will be gone soon enough, though.

 

[lex talionis]

Amad's agent needs to get to work. This is fukking ridiculous.

 

[Pickle85]

Not sure why so many are clamoring for him to be in...he's pretty average.

So are all our other attackers, it's completely understandable why people want to see him be given an opportunity.

I still think he's a better option than Amad. He can handle the physical side of things and put a shift in going the other way. I'd love to be proven wrong but Amad looks like he doesn't have the physicality and doesn't look like he's sufficiently brilliant technically to make up for that. Reckon he'll end up being a reasonable player in Spain or Italy (again) but I don't see him making it in the Prem.

We have Antony. We were playing against Newport. Give it a rest.

Can you elaborate? This wasn't exactly clear.

 

[UnitedRepublic]

We don’t deserve to have silky smooth players.

 

[BluesJr]

It’s very clear to me that the manager has absolutely zero authority or grip on this dressing room. Whether it’s right or wrong he needs to go. Players are just doing whatever they want. We should rightfully be hammering them for that for being unprofessional etc but I think it’s the manager’s job to stop that happening.

What does it have to do with Amad playing minutes (or lack thereof, to be precise)?
