A mid-table championship team will do a good job against Wolfsburg.

Listen, we could have played better. No doubt about that.

Besides, we had already qualified so there wasn't much to play for.

Omo Ibo did u smoke pawpaw leaves again. A weakened United destroyed german champions and thats no feat.

Dayokanu, Congrats, your team rose up to the occasion like a real german team. Don't pray to meet United cos u will be torn apart.

I agree wit binghi,omo ibo smokes leaves (of d Indian variety).pls add a G to ur name so we can identify u more accurately as omo igbo (weed child or bush child,take ur pick).man u playd 2 midfielders as CBs in a 3 man defence,their 3rd and 4th choice strikers against GERMAN CHAMPS AWAY! and ManU won yet u say its no big deal! Remember dt Manu had already qualified and wolfsburg were fightin 2 make d knockout rounds! Chelsea on d other hand playd alot of 1st teamers (in their usual positions) against d champs of mighty CYPRUS(dt gr8 footballing nation) and Chelsea couldnt win at home.

Who delivered the sweet cross for Owen's first goal?

Ferguson is the one mis-managing Nani.
He is more comfortable on the right wing than on the left. . . . .This is why he checks his runs and cuts in so he can deliver with his right foot.
I think his development stagnated after Carlos Queiroz left. Nani is a better player under CQ(watch him when he plays for Portugal).

Fergie should be playing him on the right wing.

U only saw the ball he crossed for a goal which was about the only thing he did right last nite.
He gave balls away at dangerous positions and did almost little to offer some protection to the back guys.
He was always found wanting last nite so what sayeth thou?
Re: Wolfsburg Vs Manchester Utd [1 - 3] On Tuesday 8th Dec by Nobody: 7:46am On Dec 10, 2009
Sauron.
If by now, Nani can't deliver a simple cros into the opponent's danger area, then he should be castrated.
I wonder why you're celebrating that feat,like it's anything speial,cus given the proise he showed at thestart f his United career,that cross should be bread and butter for him by now.He should be delivering crosses like that with his eyes closed by now.
And after that cross,what else came out from him?
And what kind of excuse is that,that Nani feels better on the right hand side?
Where was he when he started his United career?cus me does not remembers the plonker playing on the right that first season.
And since he's two footed,wherever he starts or playsshouldn't be a problem for him.
Re: Wolfsburg Vs Manchester Utd [1 - 3] On Tuesday 8th Dec by afrodoc(m): 8:37am On Dec 10, 2009
O'shea,Keano,d Nevilles,Rooney and Giggsy hv playd in different positions and hav excelled in them.dont blame Fergie 4 Nani's wahala.Nani has 2 problems 1)his MENTATION(his decision making his poor) 2)his MENTALITY (he is a whiner NOT a winner).wt troubles me more is dt he hasnt matured since joinin ManU AND he his losing his youthful skill and exuberance

Once a winger makes a wicked cross that gets his team a goal then his job is done for the day.
Nani delivered a peach of a cross on the head of a midget amongst giants. The cross was that good. My grannie coulda scored from it.
Everyone bar Evra gave possession away needlessly against Wolfsburg. The pitch was horrendous.
U cannot slate Nani for that at all.

You are not getting ma point. . . . . .The job of a winger is to deliver a peach of a cross into the danger area.
Nani did that and we scored the all important first goal. By natural order, his job was done after that first goal.


And after that cross,what else came out from him?

He tracked back(I was very impressed with his defensive duties), he even put himself in the line of fire when he blocked a shot that nearly dislocated his ankle. Wolfsburg woulda prolly scored from that shot. Nani wasn't that great but he did a decent job on the night.


And what kind of excuse is that,that Nani feels better on the right hand side?
Where was he when he started his United career?cus me does not remembers the plonker playing on the right that first season.

Watch when he plays for Portugal and compare him to when he plays for Man Utd.
Nani is more comfy with his right foot. Every of our counter attack slows down as soon as Nani has the ball because he checks, he cuts in, he shifts the ball to his right foot to see if he can deliver a piledriver.

When was the last time Nani breezed past a defender on the left flank delivering a cross with his left foot like the goal Dzeko scored from?
Of course, he doesn't do that again. He is always looking for an opportunity to use his right foot and that allows opponents to regroup.
Carlos Queiroz appreciates Nani's strength more than SAF. U will see a different Nani in a game with Obertan on the left and Nani on the right.


And since he's two footed,wherever he starts or playsshouldn't be a problem for him.

He is two-footed but the left foot is loads weaker than the right.
Nani is not comfortable with that left foot at all. I have not seen him deliver a cross with it, running at full pelt for almost 18 months.
SAF of all people should be doing something about that.
Re: Wolfsburg Vs Manchester Utd [1 - 3] On Tuesday 8th Dec by Nobody: 2:11pm On Dec 11, 2009
Sauron,
Let's give thanks and praise to jah rastafari for Nani being able to deliver a cross to Owen to score.
Let's now pray he uses his brains while on the left wing.
Cus Fergie ain't mismanaging his career like you'd want us to believe.The boy is a plonker.Full stop.
Fergie knows best,as evidenced by the win in Germany.The way that black vanilla ice is going,he'll flush his United career down the toilet with his own hands.
He better make the left wing his own,before Obertan does.Cus he can't displace Valencia from the right.
Or which was CR7's best foot before he became WPOTY?
Isn't he (pu-Nani)your anointed successor to CR?
Re: Wolfsburg Vs Manchester Utd [1 - 3] On Tuesday 8th Dec by debosky(m): 2:11pm On Dec 11, 2009
Obertan's arrival has marked the end of Nani's Utd career - he will be gone by the summer at the latest.

All the South American players under Fergie deteriorated after Carlos Queiroz left in 2008.
Nani. . .check! Tevez(before he left). . .check! Anderson. . .check! Ronaldo(before he left). . .check!! Da Silva brothers. . . .check!!!
I am now 100% certain Fergie does not know how to manage these kinda players cos of the culture clash.
If you praise a Latino 1000 times and criticise him just once. . . . .He will only remember the criticism and this is where we miss Carlos Queiroz.

Valencia is a new bride so i expect him to be cotton-wrapped till the end of the season.
Tevez was also like that in 2007/8 but as soon as we got Berbatov, Tevez was dropped like a sack of taters.
Now tell me, how many games has Berba started this season?
If Valencia fails to work on his left foot and start hitting crosses with them then his career at OT might even be shorter than that of Apache.
Fergie is playing him now not necessarily because he is a good player. . . . .but he must PLAY him to justify his acquisition.

debosky:

Obertan's arrival has marked the end of Nani's Utd career - he will be gone by the summer at the latest.

Obertan has a lot to learn yet. . . . . . .He is not direct and he cannot tip the balance of a game the way Nani can.
Nani can hit it from 40 yards a la Ronaldo when he is in the mood.
Re: Wolfsburg Vs Manchester Utd [1 - 3] On Tuesday 8th Dec by Emperoh(m): 4:08pm On Dec 11, 2009
SO tevez was now affected by CQs departure
no longer cos he was not a good player?
Hmm I can recall posts with you rriling Tevez and his lack of ball control skills
Even the Da Silva brothers? you praised them to High heavens and suddenly they are no more good cos CQ left?
Leave out CR7 cos he left on his own Volition. . . . .so look for another reason mate!!
Ol boi, the way wey u dey take change mouth, u be PDP member?

Valencia nko? Mate, he has justified his selection. he has also improved. And his crosses?
I haven't seen anything better since Gary of old days!!

Nani has lost it. . . CR7 was always comfortable to play in any of the wing.
Look for another reaosn for Nani, the ones above don't hold water!!

He deteriorated. . . . Of course, CQ had his own way of nurturing the Latino players.
Before he left, all those boys were on their A-game. Nothing could stop them from giving consistent performance week in week out.
Can u say the same these days?

Read and understand what i am telling you. . . . .stop skipping like a scratched CD.
I am not saying these players are not good or are wack. . . . .I said there was a slight drop in their level of performance since CQ left.
Nani has regressed massively. He is no longer the explosive player he used to be but he performs very well for Portugal.
Even without Ronaldo in the last stages of the WCQ, he was absolutely brilliant.


Valencia nko? Mate, he has justified his selection. he has also improved. And his crosses?

Nani wasn't this poor in his first season.
Judge Valencia next season after the novelty surrounding his arrival at OT has been put to bed.

So every winger must be like CR7 cos he was comfortable to play in any wing?

But Sauron,you said I was talking thrash when last season I alluded to th e fact that CQ's departure might be responsible for United's dip in form/performance.
So why now is CQ a factor in some players , Nani included,not giving their best?
Does your point sound viable?
Sauron,CR isn't the only player who plays on both wings.
Arjen Robben can still do it.Robert Pires did it.Freddie Ljunberg did it.So Nani should be able to do it as well,if at all he's all that.
I still recall you anointing him CR's successor.You said he had been in CR's shadows.It was his time to shine:it shouldn't matter what wing he's playing.

CQ's departure was not responsible for United's dip last season cos United's squad is not 100% Latino players.
Our dip in form last season was because of the way the fixtures played out. . . .Playing difficult away games back to back and etc.

Arjen Robben can still do it.Robert Pires did it.Freddie Ljunberg did it.So Nani should be able to do it as well,if at all he's all that.

Robben's right foot is as useless as Ando's right foot.
Pires is versatile but then how good is he as an out n out winger. Ljunberg cannot use his left foot to score a penalty, never mind crossing with it.


I still recall you anointing him CR's successor.You said he had been in CR's shadows.It was his time to shine:it shouldn't matter what wing he's playing.

I don't dispute saying this but i am just saying to get the best out of Nani. . . .the right wing will suit him more.
It is only from there he can breeze past defenders and deliver a cross without checking to shift the ball to his left foot.
I watch Portugal's games a lot and Nani was the MOTM in about 4 games playing on the right wing for them.
Re: Wolfsburg Vs Manchester Utd [1 - 3] On Tuesday 8th Dec by Nobody: 5:45pm On Dec 11, 2009
Sauron,
Going by your arguments,then Valencia should be able to play on the left as well,since Ljunberg and Pires and Robben could play from either flank.
And also,from your statement,Nani should be able to play on the left,since the afore-mentioned three have been able to play on wings thatinhibit their weaker foot.
Nani has no defence.Wherer the plonker plays isn't the issue.What is is that he should replicate his FORM to club level.
From the CQ debate you're trying to start,it would seem Fergie is daft being such a twerp in not recognizing that your boy Nani would be better off on the right.But Nani won't learn to be a team player;he wants to do the flashy things:that's why his timing is off most times,his crosses are 11 times out of 10 wasted.That,my friend, is the real reason why he can't play well on the left.Tell me how he's guaranteed to shine when placed on the right.Cus the retard thinks he's the best thing at United since CR,that's why the childish punk can feel he can criticize SAF.
(From what I see,CQ is the reason that Ivory Coast will pip Portugal to the second spot behind Brazil because Portugal,with all of CQs heroics on Nani,are not a unit yet.)If Nani is Portugal's MOM in the absence of CR,then God help Portugal.
But back to United.Let Nani learn to pass the ball when it's needed.

Eastbay, you like arguments o.
Nani can play on the left just like Lennon, Rooney, JS Park, Joe Cole, etc.
All i am saying is he is MORE effective on the right wing. . . . .The job of a winger is to beat a full back and deliver a cross and Nani hasn't been doing that cos he doesn't trust his own left foot to whip crosses into the danger area.


Nani has no defence.Wherer the plonker plays isn't the issue.What is is that he should replicate his FORM to club level.

His crosses are rubbish these days because we don't have good poachers in our boxes when those crosses arrive.
Lets be honest. . . . . .Berbatov and Rooney are woeful aerially and you cannot trust Owen to nod in balls against ruthless defenders.
How did Nani cop the highest assists in his debut season when we had Ronaldo nodding those crosses in for him?
Was he cloned? grin


That,my friend, is the real reason why he can't play well on the left.Tell me how he's guaranteed to shine when placed on the right.Cus the retard thinks he's the best thing at United since CR,that's why the childish punk can feel he can criticize SAF.

It's logical.
Nani has got pace. If he's running on the wing. . . .All he has to do is run the ball to the by-line and deliver a cross with his foot.
He doesn't do that again on the left wing cos he's wasted there. . . . . .The cross from Owen came from his right and he checked before delivering.
That will not work in a classic counter-attack against a resolute defence.


(From what I see,CQ is the reason that Ivory Coast will pip Portugal to the second spot behind Brazil because Portugal,with all of CQs heroics on Nani,are not a unit yet.)If Nani is Portugal's MOM in the absence of CR,then God help Portugal.
But back to United.Let Nani learn to pass the ball when it's needed.

Ivory Coast can never pip Portugal at the WC.
Portugal also have the same problems United have got. . . . . .No big centre forward a la Torres, Drogba, Dzeko and Fabiano.
They should make CR9 their striker and let Nani + Quaresma + Simao do the business on the wings.
There's no better centre forward player than Cristiano in the world today. . . . .Not even Torres can match Ronaldo's power when he's in the mood.
