Genuine question: what did people think of Amos last night?
I don't know, because there was a bloke a couple of rows behind me — I was in the Upper Loft last night —Â who just had it in for him. He got worked up into an apoplectic rage. Everything that went wrong was Amos's fault — for not having tracked back, for forcing Chair to drop deep, for not getting into the box, for not making a tackle, for committing to a tackle. It was so, so, so boring. It was like listening to someone who's not been given their meds. And, naturally, it made me root for Amos.
So I am not capable of seeing this rationally. Hence my question: was he any good?

You wasn't in MU by any chance was you?
Moaning is fine. We've all done it , but the full on 90 minute ranters will forever mystify me. Why on Earth do they cause themselves such distress voluntarily? Is QPR cheaper than therapy?
'FCKING PORT VALE' the epitome of this. |

Thought Amos was excellent for an hour on Tuesday and is exactly what Johansen needs playing next to him to give him some help and some legs! | | | |

I have to admit I haven't that sure of Amos (in so much as what midfield role suits him best) but given the fairly thankless task he was presented with I thought he gave a very good account of himself. Hopefully he can push on from here.
Ironically Tuesday night was probably the right kind of game for Dom Ball, and I'd have started him instead of Gray with Dykes as the one up top. |  |

Coming back from injury to play as the one man midfield was a pretty tough ask, especialy when it's not his best position. He made a good fist off it but the ease with which Sunderland played through us indicates the team selection wasnt right, other than it gave Amos a game.
I reckon Amos is at his best in an attacking midfield role pressing defenders, an alternate for Chair, Willock or a 2nd striker when he's fit enough to do that and Warburton wants to make a change and play that way, probably against a team determined to play it out from the back. Think he was doing exactly this in his best ever game for us at Bournemouth when he got injured. | | | |
