[Albion] Simon Adingra - 20 year old Ivory Coast forward - Signed 24/06/2022

[Han Solo]

Yeah second half was very open as both teams pushed for a winner.

So if Danny Welbeck scores every chance he has and Salah misses 12 shots, we'd have won.

Not sure there was anything "unfortunate" about not winning... 2-1 loss was a flattering result.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Did anyone wanting to sell actually take any notice of him playing at Liverpool away last season? MOTM performance.
If Welbeck could manage to score the easy ones which is asking a lot unfortunately we would have won.

Sadly it was one of the few times he turned up in the second half of the season.

Defensively, he is some distance behind Mitoma, Minteh and even ACD. IMO.
If we got a good fee, I’d sell.

Liverpool forum too, plenty hope the Gruda ad Rutter signings mean they can get him as Salah replacement.

Funny how most of us seem to have relegated him to the bench already

Yet froth over March who has had one decent spell as a PL winger in 7 seasons.

How is he some distance behind ACD? Adingra is a proven PL winger whereas Amario is talented but totally untested at the highest level.

Thankfully you are not running the club. This is absolute drivel. He is such a good player

Defensively, (see the post ), Adingra is very poor and it’s his biggest area for improvement, which will hopefully come.

Apparently, it really is a matter of opinion.

Thank goodness you aren’t either!

Is ACD ahead of him when it comes to defending though?

That’s simply not true.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Is ACD ahead of him when it comes to defending though?

Based on what I’ve seen “yes”.

It is a small sample size for ACD admittedly, but I think Adingra is very poor.
ACD tracks, gets back into a defensive shape out of possession, Adingra just rarely does anything like that.

He needs to improve in this area, and being very young still has lots of opportunity.

 

[Justice]

Selling Adingra seems like a great idea

 

[Frankworthington]

He not going

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Minteh had to show something special to justify sending Adingra to the bench. I think he probably did, but no way should we consider moving Adingra on just because there is someone ahead of him right now. They're will be plenty of game time for him and he's an amazing option off the bench

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

He was so overplayed last season, really hope we can keep him, just rotate them and change them in the game and the full backs won't know what's hit them.

 

[Weststander]

Loved his goal, taking the p out of statues.

Similar to Solly’s at Goodison in the 1-4 win, when we faced Fat Frank’s team.

Similar to Solly’s at Goodison in the 1-4 win, when we faced Fat Frank’s team.

Sarmiento’s diagonal run in front of the statues really helped on this occasion. They didn’t know whether they should be coming or going.

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Delighted for Simon in getting his goal. Absolutely delighted. Terrific young player

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Surely depends on offer?
Good bench player/squad member, just not a starter for me, for the reasons mentioned.
Great finish today.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

His expression always reminds me of legendary US actor Keith David (Platoon, Crash and countless others)

 

[Shaktarman]

Remember he’s young, inexperienced and played way more last season than we probably wanted him to due to injuries. Do not loan him out pls now though.

A great goal last week and a sublime assist in the last minute today. Well done Simon.

Seems a bit forgotten this Summer but the boy is special!
