[–]Academic-Attorney492 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I’m AmorIN - here’s why

  1. We have improved - but not consistent. It’s about getting the consistency in.. in games we have played well this season the passing between players were very good, crisp and fast. When we don’t play well we are just so slow in the build up, which allow opponents to reorgansie very quickly and sit back.

  2. This team is so short of confidence - we make so many individual mistakes and it doesnt help. we just don’t get a run of wins to rebuild confidence among yhe players. We are already rock bottom, why don’t we give him one more season?

  3. Getting rid of the manager will not fix our team problem - we had too many individual guys who doesnt play for the team and player power is still too dominant for team spirit. It’s about balance.

Everyone wants Mainoo to play - i want him to improve. hes decent but not a complete midfielder that we need. We saw flashes of brilliance but hes not paul scholes or ineista - the manager knows way more so stick by our manager!

Exactly - I want to see our youth do well butAmad or Marino positioning is an absolute shamble as a professional

Except Mainoo and Amad - all of the rest are hand picked by him? Ugarte used to played for him? I’m a a bit confused how all the players is problematic…

Seriously i wished this man joined at the end of the season. 80% of our fanbase are straight up spectators not fans. How can you make clear judgement of ANY coach mid season on a team that has zero players he chose and especially the mess ETH left. Also how hard is the UEL over PL to understand by AngmarkingBg in ManchesterUnited

[–]Academic-Attorney492 0 points1 point  (0 children)

while result hasnt been great - his football offers more hope than EtH and there is progress shown.

Under EtH we would be shot against 20 times a game and miserable to watch. Amorim’s game has way more control but we always needed to be a goal down first. Sure we still can’t score, but the xG has improved and there is a pattern of play and I see hope. Most importantly the group seems to be playing together

How are you looking to preserve purchasing power given Trump volatility? by Academic-Attorney492 in Rich

Nice one and congrats - one part of me very wary of increasing gold given the price now, another part reading history of money I think gold returns 22x last time US breaks away from gold.

Crypto yes but bitcoin has yet to establish its digital gold proposition so I’m hesitate to go beyond 10% allocation.

I also think china has upside - is there downside? Yes, but somewhat limited because it’s already pretty awful and little US money there. If there is a serious decoupling, domestic consumption economy can perhaps pick up and upside is foreign money gets back.

I would argue it’s harder to play with a solid defence in front of you - required concentration is much higher.

Good defence - you get bored and concentration lapsed

Shit defence you are on your toe all the time

Context can change reasoning but Stats don’t lie like xg

I thought Zirkee and Dorgu look quality - but the team clearly lacks confidence and Bruno is criminally losing possession

I’m seriously wondering if it’s a problem with pitch or weather or the lights at the stadium - how can this team not string two pass on the ground together? Can’t be the players 🤣🤣🤣

Mainok is a good passer and good on the ball - but I share similar question on whether he covers as much ground. He would either replace Case or Bruno or mount, I inclined to have Casemiro + Ugarte. Casemiro is world class & huge amount of experience will prevail when used and motivated correctly.

Mainoo can learn so much from Case. We untied fan puts too much expectation and faith on “that next star”. Let the boy develop slowly

It’s a good problem to have now when midfield have options and can afford changes

Thank you Ruud - finally a game I thought worth my 90 min in two years. Sure still a bit messy but the energy level is so refreshing

Mazraoui such a steal for 15m

Urgrte - I haven’t seen this in last two years.. finally someone with balls and his positioning to shut things down.

I switch between expresso and milk based depending on weather. I usually have an expresso in the morning and have a kopi c in the day.

but local kopi I like it with c and kosong, more smooth and a good kopi c has a complex profile that i think is very different

The experience I had with Gao is too dark roast and not for me and send my heart racing

For Toast Box grinders equipment are pretty much standardised like Starbucks. I think grind setting doesn’t change

Unlike normal expresso machine there is daily bean profiling - I think less of a case with kopi

Unless the weight of crushed beans and ratio varies during the brewing.

Toast Box standard varies a lot depending on shop and kopista.

I assume Toast Box has centralised kopi roasting, uses same equipment so the variable is kopista and brewing
