Normally personal term agreed baru discuss transfer fee mah, ini macam terbalik pulak. Antony salary baru 105k per week, by logic it should be easy to sell it off.

it's funny how you had to explain this to the "fans". Don't know how they couldn't think about this. This is why I can't even blame Amorim. Should be able to walk all over Grimsby regardless any formation or tactics. Playing out of your natural position don't instantly make you forgot how to pass the ball, lose your instinct, game sense. The players didn't turn up that's all I could say.

Which is why Amorim was so upset after. Saying what the players wanted to show was loud and clear.
And if we can be on point, no player really played out of position.
Maguire did not play RW, Onana did not play CM and Bruno did not play CB.
All players played in a position they are familiar with. Bruno played in a deeper number 8 role, which he has played many times durnig his time with United.
Bruno's 3 most played positions are the number 10, RW and a deeper number 8 at United. Amad was playing a deeper WB instead of a more attacking RW, but there are enough overlaps between the two positions to make it similar. Especially it is still the main attacking thrust from the right, just starting off deeper.
Manchester United made Grimsby Town look like Arsenal. That's some achievement.
even Mainoo lost 19 possession in the period of 90mins for grimsby match, let alone competing with Bruno position. In the past all this cup match was like a chance given to reserve player/youngster to perform themself in front of manager and crowd, now their mentality is like "oh i'm playing carabao cup and i'm not giving in 100%", just play casually and push all the blame to the manager. We have seen it during Mourinho, OGS and ETH time.
Onana is going to sit on bench until end of season, Bayindir definitely has full support of Amorim.
