They get media training tho

I would never know as I don’t do that ****
But it gets out that’s the whole point
It just adds to the suspicion with him his head isn’t in the game
Hopefully he’s fully committed
You do have the benefit of wisdom though, allegedly. :emoticon-0105-wink:
 
I’d like to think you’re intelligent enough to pick up on the game management part of my post
But maybe not
Game management is taking off a striker to hold onto a lead or a draw in our case
Hope this helps

But you said he didn't until they scored to go ahead, which is exactly the same as us, except that we never did score to go ahead.

TWT whether this was a good management move. I suspect it was a lesson about the consequences of switching off last few seconds of a game as much as the social media gaff.
It puts a lot of pressure on the lad, and it will be interesting whether he sulks, it inspires him for the next game or it’s a turning point for his career. Selles (and maybe his agent) know Abu and are in a better position to gauge how he will respond.
I thought straight after the game, Selles pointed the finger at the team’s game management. Tbf a few minutes prior to the goal, Abu was sprinting back at left back tracking their player, then a few seconds prior to it, was sprinting to get onto Harry’s through ball. Maybe he had nothing left to track back? Before some say he had only been on for half the game, I am asking the question how quickly can you recover from two sprints? These are fine margins, their left sided player had also actually played less minutes than Kamara, and the game pretty much was decided by a sprint off between the two in the last few seconds. Don’t get me wrong, I was livid with him after the game and never wanted to see him in a City shirt again, but it was it laziness which we all assumed (because of that languid style).
Time has spoken!
