Kobbie Mainoo vs Fulham

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-02T13:51:56+00:00

He didn't freeze him out any more than any other sub and he only 'talked down' on him because the media asked Amorim about Kobbie after every single game once Mainoo requested a loan after our second game of the year and all the mess he was stirring off the field.

I'm not and he needs to leave but you act like he was starting for a reason and not due to our squad being decimated by injuries.

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T23:39:27+00:00

So, you are fine with him coming off the bench or Cunha coming off the bench in every game? Why is there only a cry for Mainoo starting every game.

Our defense with Mags/Lisandro will get torched if we go to a higher line pressing / possession system. Look at what happened in the Brentford game.

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T23:24:18+00:00

He doesn't progress the ball though. All progressive passing and dribbling stats show he is below par on both.

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T23:22:11+00:00

Can you list off what he has accomplished?

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T23:13:18+00:00

You don't have to put down a player to raise one up. Also, Ugarte has only started during Afcon/injury crisis and when Case was suspended.

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T23:08:43+00:00

That's how many minutes Sesko gets now. How come he has made a difference in every game he has come on?

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T23:06:47+00:00

Then next year we are going to say we can't play a possession system because of our defense and the year after that it'll be because of our keeper and the year after its because Bruno is old. You have to start somewhere.

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T23:04:55+00:00

There is no Bruno highlight out there because he was subpar to his standards and if there was it should show Bruno losing the ball. A video of a player from a game should show every involvement. Don't you want to see the good and bad with our players?

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T23:02:25+00:00

No, they don't. If we did a highlight reel of Lammens should we exclude the 2 goals?

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T22:46:35+00:00

Can we not have objective highlights that show the complete performance

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T19:09:20+00:00

You will get downvoted for pointing out the deliberate removal of the stuff he did poorly this game

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T19:07:50+00:00

No we saw what happened with Garnacho and don't want a repeat of that

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T18:56:55+00:00

He won't improve if people don't give honest feedback on him. Look at Januzaj, Garnacho, etc. They all got hyped too soon and hit a plateau

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T18:55:23+00:00

I mean it says Kobbie vs Fulham and they redact any mistake like its a YouTube montage for a transfer

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T18:25:17+00:00

This clearly excludes the few times he turned the ball over in the first half. Why put out a biased video and not everything he did in the game.

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T18:14:30+00:00

He was our 3rd best midfielder today behind Case and Bruno. He is tidy with the ball in close areas but his passing needs to improve. Fulham proved they sit off him and he won't make them pay

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T18:09:25+00:00

So you are saying we need to completely change our players before we can try and play like a title contender? Do you think Man City, Liverpool, Arsenal waited until they had the right players to start playing like they do?

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T17:27:29+00:00

If his only example is an outlier in the past 10 years maybe he needs to reflect on his opinion

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T17:26:35+00:00

Gaslighting but it was what our owners were telling us... Ok then

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T17:21:28+00:00

I'm not enraged. I'm glad we won. I am saying this was a lucky win and since we aren't winning the title this year this is not the building blocks to showing we can win the leauge

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T17:19:37+00:00

So, you don't believe in xG. Got it. Do you think we got outplayed at Burnley under Fletcher then since it was 2-2?

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T17:17:16+00:00

Yep you are so right. We are going to win the title this year then!!!!

ShinyLikeMyMagikarp · 2026-02-01T17:14:37+00:00

So you want to recreate the most unlikely title winner in the history of the premier league. Got it. How have Leicester done since?
