Mayenda discussion thread

We’re not battling top 2 so we’ve got 11 games to use Wilson and Mayenda sensibly. At points play them together but also rotate and rest. We can’t afford burn out or injuries and Wilson has at times looked properly cooked.
 

I'm like a stuck record on here, every home game saying the same thing, but Reggie needs to play 442 this Saturday, Wilson and Mayenda up front, Roberts and mundle on the wings, and any two of his CMs and just take the bloody game to Cardiff from the first minute and smash the fuckers 7-0 .

No doubt he'll start with 5 across the middle, again. And we'll struggle again. Against a bottom 5 club, again
I’m the same. Feel like a stuck record. With the home games we have left we should be playing Mayenda / Isidor and 2 of Roberts / Mundle / Watson with 2 of Jobe / Neil / Rigg, and going at pace from the first whistle. In the away games we should be going with Isidor alone, 2 from Mayenda / Roberts / Mundle / Watson with Browne and 2 of Jobe / Neil / Rigg.
 
Think it was the sheff utd home game where my opinion of him started to change as he absolutely terrified them, must admit before that game I wasn't sure if he'd make it here.
At 19 he still has a lot of improving to do and as expected consistency is a problem in the short term. I think its fair to say though at least once a game he'll do something excellent where we get odd glimpse of the potential player he could become in a few years.
 
Not just on here . Facebook YouTube Instagram . Basically anywhere Sunderland are it’s him getting absolute pelters. Ridiculous and embarrassing from our fan base
Also shows how minging social media is. Better to just delete the account and go out and do something less boring instead.
 
Need to watch out for his goal celebrations now

Where you get that from, cos it going onto different videos now
Just clipped from the video. Uploaded to Daily Motion but I’ve never really investigated how to stop the subsequent videos I have auto playing.

Still, nothing illegal on there 😂
 
I think that to reach anywhere near our full potential we NEED to find a way to get both Mayenda and Isidor on the pitch at the same time. They are both just too good to drop. It's a weakness of RLB (who I love overall) that he's not tactically flexible enough to find a way to do it.
 
I actually think that this would be worth a try when everyone is healthy.
O'Nein would be free to move forward to support the midfield when we're in possession. Watson could spell Mundle in the second half, Roberts could also come on for Hume if we need a goal.

Mepham.....O'Nein.....Cirkin
Hume ...............................................Mundle
Neil.....................Bellingham
