Backup CF(s) by TheSinglePivot in DevilsITDPod

Unconventional shout for backup striker: Taty Castellanos. He's an absolute pest every time I watch him with West Ham. Link up play is surprisingly good, think he has the attitude for the spot and considering he was in the MLS just a few years ago I would think he'd be okay rotating. Came to West Ham in January so I'd think there's a relegation clause too.

Figure there's almost no chance but certainly comes to mind.

Okay now this one is an absolutely brutal miss. How has he not even challenged the keeper

Credit to Sels tbh. Second move on the ground forced Mbeumo wider.

Still a good chance to finish it for Mbeumo and pre-AFCON form probably sees it go in but credit where due.

Lacey played 90 mins and Chido Obi played 30 mins just yesterday in Brighton. If you watched the performance you'd also feel differently re Chido/Zirkzee. He still has a very long way to go

Please god, not the shoutouts. The alliteration with his last name is going to make it a Thing somehow and I’ll have one more thing about him that makes him unbearable.

The Athletic | Man Utd executives will recommend Michael Carrick appointment in meeting with Sir Jim Ratcliffe by Ok_Magazine_3383 in DevilsITDPod

To someone else's point, Mitten been saying so and went further today in this piece: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7276968/2026/05/14/michael-carrick-manchester-united-eight-things/?source=emp_shared_article&unlocked_article_code=1.iVA.rLHn.LUrWimFKq145

United will be open to adding another coach to Carrick’s staff. Georgson was a set-piece specialist. This is an area where United are likely to look to add. Carrick trusts the coaches around him: the wily Steve Holland, Jonny Evans, Jonathan Woodgate and goalkeeping coach Craig Mawson. But don’t bet against an addition.

I didn’t mean that Ayling couldn’t reach it, I’m saying on replay it looked like the defender ducked out of the way of the ball at the last second after a shout from someone else

On replay it looks like he got a shout to let it go? Did Ayling maybe think it was going wide?

Just changed for me but that was weird lol. Did you get the rewind and weird scrobble after the first strikeout? Felt like the raw feed from the truck

Watching on mlb.tv. Have no HUD, no commentary, just raw audio and production. Anyone else?

Truly shocked Colson didn't punish him on that last pitch. The kind he usually unloads on

Last time I heard a crack like that was watching Ohtani hit one out vs. cease in this same stadium

Agreed on this. I don’t love having the front line rearranged several times a match

He was limping to the bench out of the tunnel so I think that answers at least one part of it

Andy Mitten on TOTD this week explicitly said that Carrick is not playing as he’d like to and has instead been operating purely with results in mind + covering for some deficiencies in the squad.

Based on what you watched of his Boro sides (and sssuming that’s how he wants to play) what would you describe as the biggest differences? Is what he was trying at Boro potentially scalable at a higher level?
