I’m saying that both have had a lot of fans calling for them to start because they’ve looked so good. Trossard began starting in Martinelli’s absence and immediately started plummeting in performance. Nwaneri has had some good cameos and appearances in cups, but predictably he is 17 and cannot be expected to stand up to Newcastle’s big burly men.
Nwaneri isn’t going to get good from the bench especially when he’s the closest thing we’ve had to what we’re missing in the absence of Ødegaard. Okay, he never had a good game today, but who did?
You seem intent on ascribing a lot of intent to my comments that I don’t intend.
I don’t blame Nwaneri for not playing well. I blame the rabid supporters who were convinced that he needed to just be thrown into the deep end and he’d magically fix our problems.
I’m not… comparing the two…?
