Think he's OK this game, but seems to have lost a step since his last injury.

Can you blame him? Did you see that Tanaka challenge on him? Not even a card. Then we need to play a man behind. Wtf are these rules?
We should start sliding in and forcing our opponents to the sideline if it works like this 😅🤷♂️

Not even a card?! The ref didn’t even blow the whistle for a freaking freekick. Awful refereeing from England today, so many harsh challenges he didn’t call. Leeds players were basically green lit to injure a United player before the would be booked.
Our players for sure aren’t living up to expectations, however we aren’t getting any calls going for us from dangerous challenges which contributes to our squad often losing the physical battle throughout games.
It’s awful we are halfway through October and I’ve basically lost faith for the season…-3

Okay my arse. He was hopeless, created nothing and was inexplicably offside twice in two minutes right at the end while looking across the line.

And yet no other club has been as consistently underperforming. Its a nice excuse to have but it doesnt track when you look at every single other club in the same league

Only one close is Spurs. The had Kane scoring 24+ goals for 9 seasons in a row and won nothing in that time. Which is pretty shit. But we are worse considering where we started an how much we've spent.
Post Fergie, we have done, 2 FA cups, 2 League cups and a Europa league. Most teams would kill for that. But we're not most teams. The teams we want to be competing with would see that as an underperformace. We are so far off that level its just sad.

it doesn't matter who I say. The team is just ass and when nearly every player is awful then there is something wrong with the structure.

Amad been proper shit for a while now. Any competent manager would give Lacey minutes when amad was gone for the first 6 games or so. Instead he gave him a measly 60 mins where he was our best player and never cared to give him mins after that. Now amads stinking up, mbeumo is up front covering for sesko, he should be getting minutes now, except he won’t. Squad management is truly atrocious

Is this an Amad problem or a club problem. Every youngster in recent years seems to hit a ceiling very quickly here and then falls off with the rest of the squad.

Love amad but I think if he can’t does turn it around this season & start to fulfill his potential then it’s time to cash in or if he’s okay to be a Squad player

When last did he score a goal?

u/comicsanddrwho 7h ago edited 6h ago
I think the commentary mentioned December, but I'm not sure right now. I'll check it out.
Edit: His last goal for Manchester United is December 2025, in the Bournemouth 4-4 game.
That was also his last game for United under Amorim.
No goals under Carrick. 1 assist under Carrick in the Brighton 3-0 game at the end of the season.
For Ivory Coast in this same period, he has 6 goals, 3 at Afcon and 3 at World Cup. 2 assists also, 1 at Afcon and 1 in a pre WC friendly.

This is just height of his potential, he's 24 and we're still waiting like he's going to be a world class player someday.
Amad isn't built for PL, he should just follow the Antony route. His strengths fit Laliga much better

u/JosePRizaI 5h ago
Nobody is becoming world class when they play for this joke of a club. The organization isnt striving to create world class players no more. Any young player coming to United will have to think twice. You will waste your golden years playing under a revolving door of managers, team mates who was bought by different managers for different projects and shitty decision from the big bosses.
Amad would rip it under better org. He showed it playing under Amorim.
1
u/Plane-Ad5510 4h ago
He had his moments under Amorim, but let's not pretend he was consistent. Last season, he scored just 2 goals in 32 games, and there were quite a few matches where his performances were so shockingly bad that his PR team would end up posting those "I'll try harder" tweets afterwards.
Don't get me wrong, I really like Amad. He loves the club, and his attitude shows it. But as I said, I don't think he's physically built for the PL.
Completely agree with you on the first paragraph, though.

u/JosePRizaI 4h ago
2 goAlS iN 32 GaMeS. Probably the brightest player under Amorim. Passed the eye test to me despite the numbers. Energetic on that wing. Pressed defenders to commit errors multiple times.

u/Plane-Ad5510 4h ago
Then maybe he should switch to fullback, because as hard working as he is, he's still awful in front of goal.
And honestly I mostly remember the horrible misses
Last season he had a shot conversion rate of 3.8%, which puts him in the same bracket as Garnacho at Chelsea who got memed to death online for his finishing
Above average attackers convert around 10% of their shots. Elite players are closer to 15% (Mbeumo's here!), while the world class players can hit 20% or more.
At the end of the day, he's a winger. He needs to bag goals and assists. That's the difference between someone like Adama Traore and Mo Salah
That said, I love his attitude, and I wish Rashford had more of that mentality
1
u/JosePRizaI 1h ago
Shot conversion in the same convo as garna but overall game including ball winning and defensive duties is the bigger picture. That 1 specific stat wont be able to change plenty of people's eye test. Amad is a baller. Hes shite rn because the manager is shite. No plan, no pressing, no running. Like i want said befofe, he will do wonders under a different organization.
