7 | Omar Marmoush - 2025/26

[01cravend]

Its extra weird because his pressing is superb and Peps just leaving that on the bench for Savinho...

Where? Who has 60 mil and 200k a week spare in January?

Fuck knows, but something is clearly up when we're playing Savinho ahead of him

 

[ninjamonkey]

Always baffles me why some decide a players career is over because they dont make an appearance or get much playtime during certain small periods.

Doku is unquestionably the starting left winger right now. When he came off, marmoush was an option but I can understand why Savinho comes on, the lad needs confidence, we're 5-2 up and they are leaving big gaps at the back for a runner like Savinho, at that point, there is also the prospect of taking Haaland off shortly after that round of subs and Marmoush is his best replacement.

 

[The Fat el Hombre]

Maybe should have come on for someone earlier but had to come on for haaland for the last 10 or so, haaland wasn't moving

 

[Mattyc55]

He must be raging watching that bag of shit come on before him

It does not matter Sav will still find the blind alley

Honestly I am beginning think Savinho has a clause in his contract about mimimum appearances / playing time - i just can't understand how he is constantly given game time despite his performances or lack of !

 

[hilts]

At 5 1 he should have come on for Haaland, not sure what pep is thinking sometimes, goes on about players needing rest and others needing minutes and has the perfect opportunity and doesn't do it.
The fact savinho got yet another chance instead is bewildering really

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Bit of a panic buy this is for me. He is off to Afcon soon isn’t he so won’t be an option.

Without his goals last season we wouldn't be in the CL, he hasn't been given a fair chance at all this season.

 

[Sam69]

In 12 days, on December 15th, after the Crystal Palace match (on December 14th), he leaves with his national team to play in the Africa Cup of Nations.

After coming on in the 89th minute against Leeds, not having a single minute to play tonight, when we needed an attacking player who was good at pressing and worked hard defensively, remains a mystery to me

The only thing I can think of is Omar's just back from an injury and he's not being rushed where as Pep is trying anything and everything with Savinho to show the board.. he's just SHIT.

Otherwise it makes absolutely no sense.. when Omar has goals and he's our best presser and that's something you need when you want to at the very least close out games.

But Savinho over Marmoush made absolutely no sense.

 

[leighton]

He will get time against Sunderland. Saying that the team that played last champions League game that started not a lot of them have had a lot of minutes recently.

Yeah. He’s been here 11 months. People are way too hasty and one of the annoying things about football fandom. He played a huge role in last season top 4 run. He has dealt with injuries early season and maybe pep is trying to play Savinho into form and Doku has locked left wing down. I love his pressing and he does get goals so I hope he gets some minutes

Im not sure any manager anywhere in the world plays someone to show how shit they are:-)

They can give me a call though I can show em how bad I am if they like.
