Red Billy Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 Guilty at times of overplay in previous games. Beating the man and coming back in to the tackle again but tonight I thought he kept it simple and kept it moving forward. He looked very assured.

mozo Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) Massengo was top notch tonight. I think the reason that HNM is a divisive player is simply that he's a confidence player. I can recall a couple of games where he couldn't kick a ball straight and others where he has been imperious. Diedhiou was the same, not that I'm claiming it's a French thing. Some players only show their best when they're feeling right, particularly as a 21 year old in a foreign land.

He seems a little diffident but I'd be constantly reminding him how good he is and encouraging him to just go out and believe in himself on the pitch.

Hamdon Mart Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 I've watched City for three seasons, this is my fourth and tonight was as good as I've seen Massengo play. Treat him right, get him to sign the contract and he will be a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuggggggge asset for the club, either playing wise or to sell & finance other transfers. I like the lad; 100 games in the bank six weeks after your 21st birthday is damn impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was probably the most memorable midfield performance I’ve seen in many years. Massengo and Scott playing together in a similar central pairing that day too.

petehinton Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 Few dodgy moments first half, but quickly grew into one of the best on the pitch. Was superb second half. FWIW (could be BS) but heard today the sticking point re contract is that he’s been offered the exact same terms that he’s on right now, so basically extending his current contract rather than anything ‘new’ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's constantly pressing and getting stuck in. A fine pass to help setup the goal as well. Wait a sec.... But he doesn't get assists according to some on here?

There's a reason why Brentford let him go. We've leaked goals constantly since he's been here despite changes in the back like, time for a new No1 long overdue. His only real competition has been Max who isn't really championship quality. Maenpaa was way better and shame be got injured. Good shot stopper but never comes out and catches a ball his punching is always dodgy aswell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nige isn’t gonna break his wage structure…not for a player who isn’t at the consistent level of someone like Andi Weimann. But if there’s scope within that structure to give him a bit more, I would. I’m a fan of his, think it will be a sad day if he leaves next summer. C’mon Nige, work some magic! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
