Ten Hag and Amad

I must admit, this would infuriate me if I were a professional footballer:

There really seems to be a growing proportion of our fanbase who are complete and utter facking bellends.

Rooney or Keane would probably have told the guy to fack off, and he’d have fully deserved it. Hopefully others around him put him in his place.

What a cant.

Everyone wants to be a social media hero

It's called free speech

Two I think very important points which Carl Anka made about Amad last night:

1. He demonstrated that he can step inside and play as a second number ten next to Bruno, which bodes well for him (and gives him a big advantage over Rashford and Garnacho) under Amorim.

2. There was one passage of play in the first half when he pressed three separate opposition players. He didn’t catch the first one, so he went after the second, then after the third, and eventually won a throw in. If the forwards and midfielders already at the club want to play under Amorim, they’re going to have to demonstrate that commitment and determination six or seven times an game, every game. (Apparently the crowd were really stirred up to see it, too.)

Wait until he’s played 100 games and got a fat new contract, that will soon disappear.

I like the look of Amad, and I do feel he should have had more opportunities last season.

Having said that, how many times will a player on the side-line be the answer to our issues before we accept they probably aren't that good either?

For most, this will never happen.

What everyone is missing is its very rarely one player in one position is "the solution". Rotation boosts the performance of the players, knowing there is active competition even at your highest level. Fergie learnt that early enough anf just because you do not think one is as good as another you therefore make them "the best". We cannot have that.

There in lies the Bruno problem and what will soon be the Garnacho problem.

That’s how the potato fackers are able to elect corrupt racists to power
