Hope the sub was for the booking rather than an injury. Not as effective as he was in the first 3 games but the whole team around him was poor and I don’t think that helped. He’ll be back in the first team next week

Not sure, didn’t see him come out to sit on the bench for the second half…
 

Mamadou Sangaré

He was poor. But unlike Dango, he was simply off the pace. What worked for him the first two games didn't come off. Was just a bit too slow to the ball, the Sunderland players were quicker in action than he was.

No big deal, it's part of his adjustment. He will have games like that.

Absolutely. Part of his learning curve. This is a completely different level to the Ligue 1 and it's going to take time to dominate every week.
 

Mamadou Sangaré

One of those games that reminds the dozen newspaper columnists championing how we won the transfer window that he will need time to adapt to different types of games. I’m not sure he will have seen much as intensive as Sunderland’s first half performance in Ligue 1. Solid choice to hook him, he’ll be better for it,

Poor today, but take nothing away from Yarmo who reminded us what a good player he is.

He'll be back next week against muff and will probably score. I want to see more marauding runs like we did against Leeds, I think that's where he's going to be most dangerous.

Thought Mamadou was man marked today.
 

Mamadou Sangaré

Yep, midfield was poor today, especially defensively. I don’t want to see us becoming too reliant on one player. ‘No Sanagré, No party’ - hope not.
No Jensen! Sorry, I know it’s the Sangaré thread, but the team’s not all about him!
 

Mamadou Sangaré

He has also gone from quiet transfer to being the centre of attention, mentioned everywhere, maybe he suddenly felt the pressure. As others have said, he will come good again no problem.
 

Mamadou Sangaré

Already had a couple of mates get in touch regarding their FPL teams as they're worried he's now become a rotation risk. Can't believe I'm having to reassure a Spurs fan and a Gooner that he'll be quality this season and to not worry.
 

Mamadou Sangaré

I think he came off because of the card and from what I could see, Yarmo played a little more right of centre than Sangare seemed to want to in the first half. I guess that was tactical to reduce the ball going out to their left so much, which seemed to work. Their 10 was much quieter in the second half probably down to that shift and the changes in our personnel on that side.

Yeah Palace fan at work put him in last week, shame lol

You’re more patient than me. I had a mate get in touch about the exact same thing and I said “I couldn’t give a sh*t get a life.” Hearing about other people’s FPL second only to other people’s dreams IMO.

You probably don't want to hear that I'm in 2nd place in the GPG FPL league then mate. :LOL:

I think you have to give credit to Sunderland, they did a job on us. Sangare just like several other players were unable to make an impact, get a foothold especially in the first half. I would say to him welcome to the PL, that is why its the best league in the world. Every game is hard in one way or another, and you face different problems from game to game. He would not have experienced that in France, but he will learn and come back stronger.
 

Mamadou Sangaré

I had the impression that Danso was marking him. Nominally playing RCB but positioning quite a bit higher; he dropped deeper in the second half, although we pushed higher then.
 

Mamadou Sangaré

Thoughts on the last few performances? Not as much zip and energy since the spurs game. I've seen him done a few times by other midfielders and then he tracks back like a machine and sort tackles them from behind without committing a foul. Some skill that.

Don't get me wrong, still doing well however. I'm excited to watch him vs Chelsea.
 

Mamadou Sangaré

I think the EPL presents challenges he hasn't had to adapt to previously.

I think he naturally favours the middle of the park more. In the first half of the Sunderland game he seemed unable to cope with them consistently playing the ball out to their right winger. YY coped better as he naturally operates more towards our right hand side preventing the easy passes Sunderland played in the first half.

He'll figure it out with the coaching staff and learn his positioning and our style. He has the raw ability so it is just adapting his style I think
 

Mamadou Sangaré

Another 90 today over in Liberia
 

Mamadou Sangaré

My son was so excited to see him play for the first time and he wasn’t disappointed!
 

Mamadou Sangaré

I think that he showed yesterday that he should be back in the starting line up. His use of the ball was simple but very intelligent, and he delivered tenacity as well.
Who does he start instead of though?
Our brilliant young goalscorer from yesterday, our best defensive midfielder, or our most creative midfielder?
A good conundrum for KA to have
 

Mamadou Sangaré

He was generally good after coming on but also made one suicidal pass that very nearly led to a winner for Villa.
 

Mamadou Sangaré

I guess Yarmo out for Sangare with KLP moving wide (assuming KS is out)?

Without looking, I’m pretty sure Janelt is already very close to a suspension so the decision might make itself in a week or two.
Slightly off topic, but it would be good to get Collins or SVB, maybe Damsgard fully fit too. Liverpool at home will be tough game, but Im sure Sangare will do very well and fully announce himself onto the PL.

SvB on bench yesterday, but not brought on for Schuster. Assume he was there for no more than 20 mins if required. So if he’s not quite ready for close to 90 mins, then presume Collins is seen a little further away.
 

Mamadou Sangaré

It’s harsh because Yarmo is a really good player and has played well, but Sangare is just a better player, and we were so much better on the ball with him on the pitch second half. Also think Sangare is perfectly suited to playing against an Iraola side - has to start for me.

With the way Janelt’s yellows are going both Sangare and Yarmo will probably end up playing together against Hull a week after anyway 🤣

They're different players with different qualities; Sangaré's still got to adjust to Keith's style of play (international breaks certainly don't help) and is a 'more valiable' player.

Midfield is the most physically-demanding position and we need to be able to rotate players, both for starting fitness, suspensions and in-game. Ideally we need a fourth.

Can see why he passed the 'no dickheads' test, seems really thoughtful and unselfish. I think by Christmas he will be playing every game, Keith doing the right thing and introducing him with care
