2024/25 Orel Mangala

[Zatara]

Forced to play this donkey due to injuries now

 

[royvernon39]

Its either him or Gana Gueye as the defensive midfileder and he's much better. He's no Howard Kendall
but he is an upgrade on what was avaialable. The issue is who is his partner? For me when fit would be
Garner.

Better technically but his lack of pace is a concern. That’s why gana works well. Having Doucoure give it away repeatedly means we need someone with pace to recover it.

Garner or Tim should be in there instead of Doucoure but that isn’t going to happen anytime soon.

 

[Remember-the-name]

This lad has been sound and will only get better imo

We looked a lot calmer and progressive in the middle when Mangala came on for Doucoure.

Agreed. He’s an actual footballer. I absolutely despise our style of play. Doucs and Gana just don’t have any ball playing ability so we end up going long and we don’t have the pace to get on to things any way.

 

[Vedder]

Will sit on the bench more than play, As dyche plays his favourites

We looked a lot calmer and progressive in the middle when *random player* came on for Doucoure.

Fixed it a little for you

 

[Street end man]

Very composed cameo, really like him.

Should start over Doucoure and Gana if we’re being honest.

Both have been fantastic servants of the club, but both need reducing in the time they spend on the pitch.

Gana is having a good season and was one of the best out there tonight. I do like mandala thought

 

[Sheedy's right peg]

It would be interesting to see him given a few games and see how he gets on.

Looks like he'd off more than Doucs and would help us keep the ball more.

 

[Titus Bramble]

Needs to be starting ahead of Doucoure in the middle.

Gana has been our best player this season mate.
There's no one close to him.

Think Gana has been alright lately, and has a composure that Doucoure can, who is a proper liability only dream of.

Gana-Mangala the next for me.
