He has the ability to use both feet, as he is ambidextrous and can use either foot as well as the other. He is also versatile in that he can play as an outside defender on the left side, or move into the midfield and play the No. 6 spot. He is a very good 1v1 defender, which is important when dealing with wide forwards on the outside. He's also excellent with the ball and pushing up the touch line when it's time to attack. He shows the ability to make precision passes, he crosses into the box really well and shows great speed, but also has vision as he keeps his head up. He's improving with his first touch as well, especially when under pressure.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["10647"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Manzella is from Marietta, GA where he plays club with the NTH-NASA ECNL 2007 team, and he attends Kell High. He is versatile in the midfield as he can play the No. 8 or the No. 10, and not only can he possess the ball with both feet, but he can get off powerful shots from distance with both feet. He is a technical and creative midfielder, who is excellent when it comes to keeping possession but he also likes to get forward and attack. He's great in tight spaces, making him an ideal player in the midfield as he can draw defenders, control the ball and then play a ball in to space. He's also improving as he works on his strength and endurance.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":2,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6643930d696bd"} /-->
