2024/25 Orel Mangala

[widnesblue]

Thought he played really well in the first half. Could see him struggling in the second half but he was constantly looking to get the ball moving forward but didn’t have anyone to play it too.

Once he’s up to speed, he’ll be a good player to have.

 

[Victus]

People wrote him off quite quickly, no idea why.

 

[witchdoc187]

Like him a lot. Dunno if he's any good at football but he's as strong as I like my men

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Decent. Tidy. Will do the job we need him to do.

 

[banno]

Liked the look of him. Looked tired late on but kept us ticking over and looking for passes rather than a welly

 

[Osamabindiesel]

He is a dribbler. Would like to see him with a more natural partner

Are you new here?

Another who needed to come off but injuries just messed our bench up today

Because it’s our fan base. Majority of our fans are clueless and are only interested in putting a narrative across so they get likes on twitter or tune into twitter spaces. The fact our fan base have said we need a centre forward and right back for the last two season sums it up. We needed a left back over a right back and needed a creative spark in the middle and out wide to supply DCL.

Mangala and Lundstrom have both been written off when they both haven’t had minutes and played well today.

 

[Mozza1987]

Extremely impressed with him today. Just needs more games to get his fitness up to speed but was brilliant on the ball

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Showed some of his qualities today. Another positive.

 

[yakublue]

Thought he was great. Very solid, confident on the ball, capable of playing adventurous forward passes. Not sure we’ve had that for a while.

 

[knowing your history]

Was decent. Promising aswell as Cooper managed him for 18 months at Forest so would've known how to counter him but he was fine as was Doucs tbh.

Great first half - was OK till those stupid subs Dyche made ....

 

[Neiler]

Felt he was really good and brave in taking possession and keeping it really difficult areas, he never wastes it and he always presents as an option to receive the ball - all really impressive.

Without the ball, isn’t his strength, won’t bust a gut to close a man down or not one for blocks or tackle's interesting to see how he develops and possible role.

Felt he was really important to keeping things ticking over today.
