75 | Nico O'Reilly - 2024/25

[johnny crossan]

Curate's egg. Control let's him down a bit but good positioning.

 

[RayCTID]

A decent performance. Pep will ease him into contention

 

[Akira]

Seemed fine. Needs time to get into the team's rhythm. Tbf he's still young.

Didn't have high expectations for a 19 year old thrust straight into the team, but I ended up fairly impressed.

 

[christened at st marks]

Young kid, big occasion, played out of position, give him time

 

[Don Karleone]

Still learning but there could be a player there.

 

[Giovinco]

I actually thought he did really well today

 

[Mr HJ]

Decent enough but has to work on his first touch and also when to release the ball. Given his age he's doing alright and has a very bright future ahead of him - just not right this moment but should get a few games this year.

 

[MCFCFanTX]

He was a bit off pace but he is still learning a new position and this was a slight step up in intensity compared to the US friendlies.

He's a blue and he won a medal. I'm happy!

 

[waspish]

A full season under pep be will learn an awful lot and he will be a lot more efficient come this time next season!

 

[bluenova]

Competitive debut. Most inexperienced player on the pitch, in a makeshift City team. Up against a United team full of experience, and almost at full strength.

Clearly not the best player out there, but he played pretty well, and showed off quite a few nice touches.

I think he'll be delighted with how the game went today.

 

[vanchi]

Wildly harsh. He played fine. Some heavy touches, but still solid.

LOL

 

[Cobra]

He’s definitely not a DM, if Dada-Mascoll could ever stay fit he’d be a much better option there.

 

[jimharri]

Wildly harsh. He played fine. Some heavy touches, but still solid.

Behave.

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

Behave.

He did. Better than Mount ;)

 

[stan bowles]

Some positive signs. He was thrown into the melting pot and did ok. Hope we see him in the Carabao and early FA Cup rounds.

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

Was poor but could tell he was nervous. Who wouldn’t be tho.

 

[Dicko69]

I thought he did ok. A few times when running with the ball he knocked it that little bit too far ahead and had it nicked off of him. A few of his passes were also cut out. He just needs more experience of playing against a better standard of opposition than he is used to. As shit as the rags are it was still a step up to what he is used to. A loan to a good championship team that play a passing game would do him the world of good.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

First team debut in a Wembley final with a trophy on the line against the Rag's, at 19 years of age. The kid did okay.

 

[Delphinho]

First team debut in a Wembley final with a trophy on the line against the Rag's, at 19 years of age. The kid did okay.

Played out of position as well

 

[01cravend]

Had some decent moments but ignore the heavy touches and lack of defensive understanding... 9 passes from midfield ain't it
