[Albion] Minteh

[One Teddy Maybank]

Or, and here’s an idea, we could play either an AFCON winner or an international for Paraguay instead and let him “develop” by bringing him on later in games

An AFCON winner who is woefully off-form or Paraguay international who until today, had not been playing for the team when he was given a chance…..

Now if you’d said Gruda……..
Looks very promising

 

[sussex_guy2k2]

No sensible person can seriously argue Minteh has has as good as, or anywhere near as good a season as Georginio

I don’t think either of them have been good. But you didn’t say that. You said he hasn’t contributed as much. Whereas, in terms of output per minutes, Minteh is contributing more than Georgino.

Georginio Rutter working his arse off, dribbling three or four players to pass it to Minteh, who fails his first touch and gives Palace a goal kick.

Somehow we don't have a Premier League right winger.

I don't think even Enciso himself wants to play on the right wing.

You mean Georgino, who has 2 goals and 2 assists in 900 minutes in the league, compared to Minteh who has 2 goals and 1 assist in 550 minutes in the league?

Or were you talking about his twin, Ruttner?

Try watching the games rather than just the stats.

 

[saafend_seagull]

He’s got maximum two games left to keep March out of the team.

However we have too many players in the squad, moder out for Gomez, adingra to sell or loan out minteh, sell lamptey and Webster, buy a centre back and a right back.

Let's talk about Gruda. What does he do?

He looked quality when he came on.

Needs to start more games.

Baffling that Enciso, who has had some excellent games for us at thus level, has been kept out of the team and sometimes the squad by the less than impressive new guys.

As for Gruda, I don't get it. He has shown nothing so far IMHO.

Thought Gruda looked great today and in other games…. All opinions

I agree….has something about him

 

[Giraffe]

Minteh looked incredible when he first came. Has clearly gone backwards. Still young so will hopefully improve but he is well below his entry level at the moment.

No I don’t think so , failed to see anything he does on to pitch to make him on the subs bench let alone starting a match

I have, thanks.

I’d love to know when Ruttner did this seeing as he didn’t complete a dribble all game…

I agree. I haven’t seen anything significant yet from Gruda.

Not that I’m saying he’s shit as seems to be the fashion. I expect he’ll be decent but, as a youngster in a new country, he’s not made much of an impression yet. Some of these lads could need a year or two, not 4 months.

 

[Mancgull]

Gruda looks technically very good and today, I thought did well. Previous sub appearances, not so good. And there lies a problem in that we have almost got too many options at present and players like Enciso and Adingra are not getting enough game time.

 

[drew]

I have, thanks.

So don't quote meaningless stats when the evidence is there on the pitch for all to see. Minteh's lack of contribution in the last few games far outweighs the benefit of any goals he's scored.

 

[Zeus]

Rutter may have not been great last couple of games but at least he can control a basic ball or pass to a person in a blue shirt without shanking it. Mintehs only attribute is he can run fast, he looks absolutely terrible at everything else.

I think Gruda is going to turn out significantly better than the rest of our recent arrivals.

Not sure about the "better than the rest" because there could/should be another golden goose or two in that lot, but I agree Gruda has everything it takes. I said in another thread that I expect him to be a starter at the end of the season. He's more polished than the others we brought in.
