[NEW ARTICLE] Amorim’s Manchester United Blueprint In this in-depth analysis, I break down Amorim's tactical philosophy, detail each role in his system & assess Man Utd’s squad fit for each position. I also predict potential ins & outs. RTs appreciated! thedevilsdna.com/?p=274244

Mamadou Sangaré - Decision Making Analysis -One of the few players who have profiled as a 'Composed Threat'. Fourth among CM/DMs in Ligue 1 for decision rating. -Finds teammates in space, creates shots. Direct threat who also dictates the team's tempo. -High execution quality, really good at quick as well as slow actions. -Slowly rising to the top of my list for LFC.

Mateus Fernandes - Decision Making Analysis

Hi, we are back with a guide to the 2026 World Cup that you will want to read. It's informative, interesting, and will improve your day and possibly even your year: docs.google.com/spreadsheets…

Both Pranav and Bruno are elite at what they do.

Bruno Fernandes - Decision Making Analysis -Best decision maker in the PL among Winger/AMs. -No one comes close for 'Vision', he is able to pass the ball to his teammates such that they can create time and space for themselves quite easily. -High carrying IQ, which means he is more often than not carrying into space. If he doesn't find space, he recycles. -He is able to generate shots for himself as well and it is not surprising that he is among the best at getting the ball into the box. -Slightly lower for press resistance and his tendency to make ambitious passes means he won't be high for 'Safe Hands' (refers to passes that lead to quick ball loss for the team).

Mamadou Sangaré - Passing Profile and Post-Recovery Analysis -Sangare, just like Lamine Camara, has garnered a lot of attention. -While, in my opinion, he is still a level below Camara, there is lots to like about his profile. -Releases the ball really quickly off his feet, more than 65% of his passes being released within 2s of reception. -But he lacks central progression (or progression into the box). And he occupies positions that should allow him to do that quite often. -A thing that I really like about his profile is his ability right after recovering possession. He is able to progress using his passing, Carries in tight spaces in central areas to evade pressure. -Physically, there is a lot of upside to someone like Sangaré. But he still has some work to do when it comes to his on-ball stuff.

Mamadou Sangaré - Channel Defending -No midfielder across the T5 Leagues made more successful tackles in the channels than Sangare. -Also ranks 9th for ball recoveries inside the channels. -Think in terms of pure game breaking ability, Sangare is slightly better than Camara. Tackling and physicality seem to be better as well.

With the way football has evolved recently (emphasis on pressing & man marking), midfielders who have traits for a box-to-box role (workrate, ball winning, progression without pressure, straight line carrying) are finding joy in FB roles. Eg. Nunes, Laimer, Neves, Guerreiro.

So happy Samu Costa is getting international importance now. Probably should start at the base of Portugal's midfield in games where that have to defend more. I had spotted & written about him in March 2023 when he was in Almeria. Only gotten better since then. Should move up.

Look so nice to watch. High ability core, Messi still got it, pleasing football. Won't be surprised if Argentina go far and entertain while doing so.
