2025/26 Vitalii Mykolenko

[Bebeto]

Should have played him against wolves in cup instead of Coleman at LB

And play Coleman at rb...

And play Coleman at rb...

Yep

 

[Nymzee]

Amazing we've gone from Baines and Digne to this.

 

[Marius57]

I understand the frustrations with him at times but though he did a decent job defensively today whilst also trying to get forward. But when he is running forward with it, Grealish just stands still and makes no run ahead to pull the fullback away.

 

[Blueclouds]

Will be happy when he on the bench regularly.

 

[chopper6]

Will be happy when he on the bench regularly.

Or even better, SOLD!

Not good enough, and not the type of full back to help Grealish game either

 

[ArtetaMagic]

Will be happy when he on the bench regularly.

Someone else's bench hopefully

Dont like going for the boy, cos he really seems a nice lad and he gives everything, but thought he was at fault for their goal today.

Nah don't agree with that at all. It's all Tarkowski.

Charges out aimlessly, Keane has to cover him, Myko has to cover Keane on Sarr, leaves their RWB completely open.

 

[MACCA75]

Every single time he tries to something progressive he makes a mess of it. Got lucky when O’Brien had to clear off the line too.

Fair enough, only watched it once.

I know there other backs better than him, but I usually feel confident when he’s playing. He’s been good for the most part over years shutting down the likes of Salah. He’s better with Branthwaite. He gets a lot of hate. Any time we can upgrade, we should. I just don’t think he’s as bad as a lot of people say. He gets good praise from the commentators. And I’ve seen improvement from him. He never pushed as high as he’s doing now. He looks to score. His crosses have improved. And he’s tough as nails. Until we have someone better, he’s got my support.

 

[jonnyg]

Will defend him and say he's been getting into more dangerous areas recently.

Looks to receive it infront of the opposing fullback and runs in behind more. Just needs to hold onto it longer for a better cross in or cutback.

Rmb him putting in some nice passes to KDH last match too.

 

[Huyton Layne]

We signed aznou...but for whatever reasons moyes don't trust him. I guess the problem is that we have never being comfortable in games this season to give him minutes.

Don't know if it's fully Moyes. We bought some kid who'd played in 15 top flight games in his life, about 900 minutes total.
That doesn't sound like someone who walks into a starting LB berth at a Premier League club.
