He played for the under 23’s last night.
Assuming that that wasn’t an accident and they didn’t realise there was a game the next day, it still begs the question why.

Haha I see this argument all the time. He played BECAUSE Ralf didn't want him. It's not like the U23 is an elite team where all the best players go and Ralf sits there "damn, I wish I could use this Wellens kid, he is world-class, but yeah, he must play in the U23 so sadly I can't use him".
For one, while Pogba is out, Varane and Ronaldo returned, giving one less space on the bench. Meanwhile, Lingard and Mata are much more experienced than Mejbri, thus if the game is tight, he’ll have absolutely no chance of coming on anyway. Might as well just give him playing time for the u-23s.Assuming that that wasn’t an accident and they didn’t realise there was a game the next day, it still begs the question why.

What argument did I make?
I answered a question with a statement of fact
Me too, he looks good on the left but I like him so much more in midfield.I hope we develop him as an 8, and not an attacker. We need a technical player like him in midfield, but with workrate too.
He played the U23 game as he wasn't going to be utilised in the senior game. The first team takes precedent over the U23s so if he was intended to be used then he wouldn't have played. The poster is questioning why he played for the U23s last night instead of being in the match day squad for today. It's not rocket science.What argument did I make?

Played U23 and didnt stand outInteresting he didn’t make the bench yesterday.
Played for under 23s on Friday night.Interesting he didn’t make the bench yesterday.
And after all...I said Mejbri...
Your gonna be the one that saves me

He was out best player on the night by a mile.Played U23 and didnt stand out
I thought he was the stand out player on the pitch.Played U23 and didnt stand out
Should start tonight.

He will get an easy ride, as he should. Majority of the fan base will not be critical of him.The atmosphere around the team is toxic at the moment. Bringing him in with a fan base openly hating the team on the pitch is a dreadful idea.
Maybe bring him on if we have a lead and the mood isn’t as bad as on Thursday, definitely not a start.

Players have the circumstances that they have. Some players debut into shit teams, some debut into strong teams. Some debut in happier times, some in sadder times. A player can’t just be left in the fridge until hypothetical better days. He’s a 20-ofd year old international who is ready to play. If he wants to be a footballer, he just needs to play and get on with it.

I wouldn't trust ESPN on this, they've been all over the fecking place recently.According to ESPN he was reprimanded by Rangnick for his performance Vs Liverpool and sent back to the u23s. Did wonder if it was related as to why he's not featured since.
As a side note, he was on the bench Vs Chelsea but overlooked in favour of Garnacho. I was watching his reaction when Garnacho got the nod over him and he stood up from his seat, ripped his bib off and threw it across the dugout into the steps A bit childish and petulant, but hopefully he learns. He was left off the bench Vs Brentford, which may or may not be related. But all the coaches saw him do it. Normally the unused subs just keep their bibs on.
That would make no sense whatsoever.According to ESPN he was reprimanded by Rangnick for his performance Vs Liverpool and sent back to the u23s. Did wonder if it was related as to why he's not featured since.

“Ralf Rangnick was not impressed with Hannibal Mejbri’s cameo in the 4-0 defeat to Liverpool. Hannibal was reprimanded by Rangnick for a reckless and erratic performance and punished him with a return to the under-23 team.”Low IQ display. That's okay, there was nothing else on display today.
That would make no sense whatsoever.
Is that a quote from Rangnick’s press conference?“Ralf Rangnick was not impressed with Hannibal Mejbri’s cameo in the 4-0 defeat to Liverpool. Hannibal was reprimanded by Rangnick for a reckless and erratic performance and punished him with a return to the under-23 team.”
Ralf agrees!
I'll help - noIs that a quote from Rangnick’s press conference?
