I personally think Ugarte is a huge step up from those lads. He's only 23 as well.

We've lost one more game than you and conceded one more goal. Reminder. Our banter form is considered good for you.

No he doesn't. you just guessing again for the sake of it? Mazraroui has been brilliant. De Ligt has been good. Ugarte has been very good under Amorim. Yoro is a kid who's just coming into the team after a long injury layoff, but has looked decent. Zirkzee is a bit shit. If your interpretation of that is me telling you they're all great, then so be it.

And all of those guys with maybe the exception of Mount and Maguire, have something in common. give it two years and your wage bill will match ours.

Lloyd Kelly is on more than Ugarte tbf.

It should be called The Other 18 tbf.

Almiron > Mbappe confirmed.

I would wait until a bit more than 4 points ahead of us before getting overly joyous. Next Tuesday should do it.

Wouldn't say that like.

Look Kenny, when all is said and done, our banter era has brought us two league cups, two FA Cups and a Europa League. That would be your golden era. Merry Christmas.

All fair points. Some I disagree with, some I don't. Amad can play wing back with no issues, I don't think Garnacho has the discipline for it though.

Didn't read the article did you Dokko. You should know better than to mindlessly screenshot sensationlist headlines from the British press.

Win the ball, give it to Bruno. Does what he's told.

Ugarte is class. Pick on someone else. Can we go back to Rashford or Antony?

Okay so what about last season? Manuel Ugarte's total of 98 tackles was the highest by anyone in Ligue 1 last season; and he managed it despite starting only 21 games out of 34, for a team, in Paris Saint-Germain, who spent roughly 66 per cent of the time in possession.

It would appear opposition fans have a very different view of Amorim that we have. He's the perfect character for the job. Whether he has the talent or not remains to be seen, but he hasn't uttered a single word out of place so far despite the immense scrutiny that comes with the role. I don't think the squad needs as much as people think either, and it's very young. Would hope we can get rid of Shaw, Rashford, Antony, Casemiro and Eriksen in the next 6-7 months to free up some pocket money and invest in players suited to Amorim's system, starting with a LWB.

Fairly decent stats for a CDM right? @bobbydazzla some stats for you.

100%. Looks like he's not getting away with it with Amorim.

Why? He doesn't shy away from performances. He's honest and says we play well when we play well, and when we're shit he's say we're shit. It was one of the things I hated most about Ten Hag. We would win a game 1-0 from a moment of brilliance, but concede 20+ shots and be completely outplayed for 85 minutes and he'd say we deserved to win and that we'd be in a title race if Garnacho wasn't offside in a game that was 4 months ago. Would you want him to publicly throw players under the bus? Especially if we're looking to sell a high PSR asset such as Rashford. I feel like publicly attacking him would be bad for everyone involved, and would come under more criticism from everybody else. Garnacho was heavily rumoured to be leaking lineups. He was also liking posts on social media critcising his own teammates, which is completely unacceptable. Despite this, he's obviously put his head down and he's went straight back into the squad.

I am a good jinx. There's no way this year you finish 5th and then we win the Europa League. No way that happens.

Man City 2-0 Everton Bournemouth 2-1 Palace Chelsea 1-0 Fulham Newcastle 2-2 Villa Forest 1-1 Spurs Southampton 1-1 West Ham Wolves 1-2 Man United Liverpool 3-0 Leicester Brighton 1-1 Brentford Arsenal 3-0 Ipswich

Not for this one. I wouldn't be waiting for an extremely defensive midfielder to be scoring goals, son.

Do you ask your postman to fix your car like?

Aye you've just described the opposite of Ugarte under Amorim. he's been everywhere for us. Get Bobby to get the stats for you. He loves stats. No idea what he was like in the Copa America and I don't care.
