2024/25 Vitalii Mykolenko

[MACCA75]

Ffs. Anytime we have a player back, another gets injured. He’s not great but he’s generally decent in the backs to wall games, of which we now have a series of.

He's crap but ironically his best games for us have been against Salah so this is one game we could have done with him available.

Just typical, someone always seems to get injured.

Feel like he picks up alot of injuries each season now, definately an area we need to bring in so can fight for the starting spot

 

[RomanReigns]

So McNeil at left back then

Myko is a huge miss. More than it would appear. For everything that he doesn’t offer going forward, his defensive mindset allows whoever’s in front of him, and even Gana, to wander a bit. And for all the (overblown) criticism of him, he’s seen off some of the leagues best RWs many times.

Ah yes the walking red card

 

[MikeH72]

Ridiculous. This lad is a crock that needs replacing.

Reported.
I’ll not have anyone talking common sense on this forum.

He's a good player defensively, had a few terrible games individually this season, but found back to his old shape defensively under Moyes luckily. We haven't been spoiled with full backs in recent years, especially not with someone that offers on both ends.

 

[Amokachi1995]

Why whenever one of ours gets injured on international duty do you know they'll be out for weeks, whereas all the RS cry-offs will be playing on Wednesday.

 

[14_dollars]

We’ve lost 2 games since Moyes joined.

Young has started them both.

Honestly I think he’s improved a fair bit under Moyes but overall I think he’s one of the poorest left backs in the league .

As was said earlier seems to do ok when he’s man to man on someone , Salah stands out , but in 2025 any kind of side with ambition would be passing on him pretty quickly .

 

[Marius57]

As much as many don’t rate him which I don’t really get (as he is generally a solid defender) going to be a big miss for the team especially when we think about who replaces him.

Hopefully it’s not too serious.

 

[NathDogg]

Huge miss for us, he’s been very solid since Moyes came back and allowed him to get higher up the pitch. Looked more confident and nearly always plays well against the so called best in the league.

I would sooner see an academy lad get the nod over Young at lb, or even Jack Harrison.
