2024/25 Orel Mangala

[Tony’s Carp]

I mean there’s very little way to judge the quality of midfielders under Dyche’s system full stop let alone after one start.

 

[Joey66]

TBF when did our misfield pass it around they dominated the midfield without a killer pass - but they got to keep the ball far too much IMO - no pressing at all from us -

 

[Pabbers]

Can't judge any midfielder under this manager, surely we know that now.

 

[Victus]

Players are generally "the worst player to ever play football" if they don't skip past several defenders, slide in several through balls or score goals.

There's no nuance in football fans

Can be hard to judge a midfielder in a Dyche side since we don't tend to play much through the middle of the park, often wings or bypassing it with a Peter Kay smash it over the top.

bloody hell even Jim couldn’t fix that

could do with him being a thug in the middle

I'd just like him to pass it forward in midfield, maybe even take a 7 metre run in to the oppositins half.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

I think he and Doucore were the weak links in the team, but he definitely can take the ball on and advance down the field. Needs to get match fit and play with a partner that isn’t Doucore. Would be curious to see he and Tim get a game together.

 

[Azza]

Very bizarre signing.

 

[EGWToffee]

Thought first half he was very very good.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

He is good dribbling. Everything else remains to be seen.

 

[pfim]

Gonna need someone solid next to him. He’s slow as molasses and can’t recover. Better with the ball than we have elsewhere.

 

[Walken]

Good on the ball, but a bit dopey off it

 

[Frenk]

I like him. He can only improve, oh never mind I forgot who he plays for for a minute.
