75 | Nico O'Reilly - 2024/25

[SamTheGuru]

That was an awesome performance. Seemed like the only person on the pitch that was actively trying to do something.

 

[Goatmeal]

The premier league is becoming more physical these days and Nico is well suited to that.
McAtee on the other hand has had numerous chances in the team but is easily pushed off the ball. Seems passive.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Deserves much more game time. Brilliant for 45 min and made such a difference.

 

[stan bowles]

Should have been starting weeks ago. A big, physical specimen with power and energy and good technical ability.

 

[BlueTG]

Done enough to deserve a run at left back. Dias and Gvardiol centre halves. Khusanov or Nunes at right back, depending on opposition/tactics.

I hope for his sake, not for the long term. We need to stop turning midfielders into full backs at some point.

 

[Withnail]

Changed the game, love his energy and intensity. He needs to be starting more games, hopefully next Wednesday.

 

[Paul1970]

Pardon? ; )

His performance 2nd half will do him no harm at all, he'll get a lot more minutes next season and he'll hopefully nail down a starting place.

His introduction was like a breath of fresh air. 2 assists from direct running was a joy to see.

Why not start him then ?

That’s what I’m saying . This lad should be starting and pep should be trusting him

How tall is he?

When Erling went over to thank him for the assist he looked to be a very similar height!

 

[christened at st marks]

Can you imagine him at 21, 22

 

[Jezza11]

Great performance off the bench. Well done lad

He's 3 inches shorter but makes up for it with that magnificent hair

We won’t . you will see the same shit with Cambiasso next season

 

[super_city_si]

Needs way more game time. Clearly a very athletic and skilled player. Good head too, makes the right decision when pressured.

 

[Tevez City]

If Pep doesn't start him next game at LB, he needs to see a doctor.

 

[super_city_si]

Changed the game, love his energy and intensity. He needs to be starting more games, hopefully next Wednesday.

He really should be rewarded for that performance or what’s the point?

 

[thomas1307]

well done nico so happy been wanting to see him more all season i hope he starts lb on wednesday are we better playing at full back or in the middle

 

[kismet]

He has to get a good run in the team now

Has to !!!!!!!

[Semper aggressus]

I like him, I really think this lad could be a star.

Needs to play regularly, honestly think he could save us £100m on a midfielder.
