elampawa the king of lies..... elampawa: stop lying, this was your original post.... elampa-LIES: where in that post did you mention anything relating to 7 minutes? even your 7 minutes is another lie you fabricated from the arsë of a baboon. carrick came on after the 25th minute. it means rooney had a whooping 25 minutes headstart before carrick even kicked the ball. elampawa, come & defend this lie. |

leggo:As usual, Messi's fanbois are the most unrealistic people ever. The word 'playmaker' should tell you its meaning already. Playmaking isn't about creating chances. Understood? Why does every pundits often liken Xaviesta to Zidane/Scholes? Why didn't they liken Messi to such players, ignoramus? That should tell you Messi isn't one. Wilshere is not even a playmaker to begin with, he's a box to box midfielder. Infact, what Wilshere did against Barca was to dominate Xaviesta with his presence, runs and energy; he never outclassed Xaviesta as opposed to Silva who was class above every player on the pitch in that game and the playmaking skills he displayed in that game were out of this world. |

coogar: http://www.whoscored.com/Matches/505554/LiveStatistics/England-Premier-League-2011-2012-Bolton-Manchester-United Whoscored tells me the changes was made at 7th minute. Rooney was our 4th top passer among the active players of 2011/2012. Behind Scholes, Carrick and Giggs on per minute. Lastly, I just saw some hit maps and clips. Coolie-guy tortoise, you lied that Rooney was our corner kick taker. Lies. Rooney scored from Giggs corner from the right side and Young's corner from the left flag. Rooney was mostly passing to the wingers and running into the box to wait for a cross. Rooney scored more than half of his goals from crosses. |

Coogar lied to us Rooney was taking corner kicks. I saw at least two goals Rooney scored from corner in 2011/2012. From Giggs (right flag), Young (left flag). Liverpool and Tottenham respectively. Rooney scored many of his goals from crossings and moves from the wings. Man United played via the wings. Rooney would just run into the box to head/shoot in or even shot from outside the box. |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by leggo: 12:20am On Dec 16, 2014 |
Shirley07:okay okay let me explain this to you in your over complicated lingo- messi makes plays and still creates more chances than silva. Totti who played as a false-9 for most of his career is one of the most regarded playmakers of the modern game. If totti is a playmaker why won't messi be? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Shirley07: 12:29am On Dec 16, 2014 |
parrotibaba:You brought up why Mourinho signed Fabregas and I told you the reason. Everyone and his dog knows that Oscar was totally burnt out in the 2nd half of last season as a result of playing so many games non stop. Infact, the first thing any commentator say about him whenever the camera zoom on him is to talk of how many games he has played so far. In order to manage him well, Fabregas was signed and how old is Fabregas? He's 27yrs old. That's should be roughly 3 years fabregas has at the top for Oscar to take over. After telling you this, you proceeded to bring in Eriksen into the discourse. Eriksen who's only started half of the games Oscar had played and Oscar did it within the space of 2yrs. So, how are they comparable? Also, I've said it times without no that a playmaker primary role and responsibility isn't to create chance but to orchestrate play. Him creating chances is just a bonus, nothing more |

Coolie-guy hands up now: Man Utd 3 - 1 Chelsea 18 September 2011 http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/14869914 Three corners recorded for Ashley Young. United had 4 corners. The fourth was nt mentioned. Young for United and Mata for Chelsea in terms of taking corners. .............................. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/14773055 Another one. Three corners taken by Anderson, one from Young. ................................ United 8 Arsenal 2 http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/14606020 Man United had three corners in the match. Anderson took two while Young took one. .................................... YetCoolieguy said 'cos RVP had not arrived, Rooney took all the corners. Ukwu! When you watch clips and read reports, you would see Young, Anderson and Giggs taking our corners. Free kicks from distance were also taken by them. Rooney only took direct free kicks from within 25 yards. So, we can conclude Rooney's 5.4 long balls per match were from midfield to wingers....... |

coogar: You like insults too much. You don't pay attention to details. Go to pages 1239 and 1285( yesterday) the post below is being published a 3rd time. Also, reports states Cleverley was substituted at 7th minute due to a bad injury. Cleverley had only one touch in the game. Talsima: |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 9:04am On Dec 16, 2014 |
^^^ continuation. * whoscored has it that Cleverley/Carrick substitution too place on 7th minutes. Cleverley had only one touch in the game. * Man United official report: When Chicha scored on 5th minute. United had actually taken the lead without a full compliment of players. At the time of the goal, Cleverley was receiving treatment for an ankle injury after a poor challenge from Davies. Bolton had their best opening of the half while Cleverley was en route to the dressing room, but Rooney was on hand to hack Chris Eagles’ volley off the line after a goalmouth scramble. Michael Carrick was duly introduced to restore equality in personnel. http://www.manutd.com/en/Fixtures-And-Results/Match-Reports/2011/Sep/bolton-v-united-report.aspx * goal.com: 8' Substitution Tom Cleverley Michael Carrick 8' SO CLOSE! Bolton go straight down the other end following Javier Hernandez’s goal and twice have efforts cleared off the line. Wayne Rooney is the hero for Manchester United, clearing from Chris Eagles after Jonny Evans blocked Ivan Klasnic’s effort. 6' GOAL!! That didn’t take long! Javier Hernandez makes an instant impact on his return to the starting line-up, getting on the end of Nani’s right-wing cross to guide the ball past Jussi Jaaskelainen at his near post. Superb start for the Mexican. http://www.goal.com/en/match/bolton-wanderers-vs-manchester-united/1117070/live-commentary?ICID=MP_MS_3 I was too tired to clear this last night. Yet Coogar called me a liar. What he does whenever he has been defeated comprehensively. Also another thing I want to emphasize now, he told lies about Rooney taking corner kicks to get his long balls/pass stats. Anderson, Young and Giggs were our corner kicks takers. These is captured on match by match basis. I have seen where to verify this on match by match basis about players who took all the corner kicks. So, no more controversies on that. Lest I forget, if you add Cleverley+Carrick passes, Rooney had more passes. With his hatrick, someone would think he was our top 9.. |

@Shirley u hv not given me stats to proof dat Oscar was a better playmaker Dan Mata at Chelsea... till u do so,case closed In other news Rooney: Manutd can win d EPL Dis is d first time in over a year dat our players believe dat de can win d EPL title, last season ,it was only Moyes ,despite languishing in 7th position, desperately clung to d belief of winning d title |

leggo: a playmaker is someone who dictates play..moves all about the pitch stringing passes together..and controlling the game. he decides when the team attacks and the tempo and speed with which the game is played, etc messi is a great player but when it comes to playmaking yaya toure z better than he is. |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:40am On Dec 16, 2014 |
Wayne Rooney says a Premier League title bid is very much on the agenda at Old Trafford. They are still eight points behind leaders Chelsea but, with a lot of points up for grabs in the coming weeks, Rooney thinks United could quickly erode that deficit. "I think we have to believe we can win the title, we are eight points behind and coming into a busy period. If we can win our games and the others have one bad result, then there is nothing there. "We have to keep winning our games, hopefully get back to the top, and you never know. "We won the league two years ago and we weren't great in a lot of those games but we got the results. "We have shown a great resilience this season. Some of the games haven't gone the way we would like but we are winning them and that is a great quality to have. "We have been here before but we have a lot of new players and this is where the experience of myself, Michael Carrick and Darren Fletcher can rub off on the other players." [Source: Skysports] |

Typical Hernandez goal, superb movement from the Mexican. 5'GOAL!!! HERNANDEZ!! Classic poacher's position at the near post, where he races in and guides Nani's right-sided cross past Jaaskelainen. 7' Meanwhile, Tom Cleverley has been undergoing treatment following that Davies challenge. Will he be able to continue? 8'Martin Petrov whips a shot just wide from the edge of the box. A lively start at the Reebok Stadium! 7'OFF THE LINE!! The Bolton bombardment commences, United cannot clear convincingly and Rooney blocks an Eagles shot on the line! 9' Tom Cleverley is forced off and Michael Carrick replaces him following that Kevin Davies challenge. You can be sure Fergie will have something to say about that...

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 1:53pm On Dec 16, 2014 |
the reason you are a liar is the fact that you brought up a match where rooney & carrick didn't spend the same number of minutes on the pitch. i have asked you to find another game where both spent 90 mins on the pitch & rooney attempted/completed more passes than carrick & you have been dancing skelewu with irrelevant points. on that same day, anderson completed 66 out of his 78 passes, rio had 54/56 & nani(a winger) had 42/53 - same number of passes as rooney but nani even completed more. so how does the game against bolton prove your point that rooney wasn't a striker in 11/12? www.nairaland.com/attachments/1947147_image_jpeg9f360c5ab7736510df54c882e9dbf188 www.nairaland.com/attachments/1947148_image_jpeg9f360c5ab7736510df54c882e9dbf188 even if we agree for arguments sake that rooney only spent 7 more minutes than carrick, rooney attempted only 2 more passes than carrick in 7 minutes. and that must have been when the match kicked off. carrick completed more passes(46) to rooney's 39. so how does this prove rooney wasn't a striker in the game? when cleverley got injured, rooney musta been drafted into the midfield alongside anderson to keep the shape to 4-4-1 till carrick got on the pitch. so why would you use this rubbish example at all if you weren't a compulsive pathological liar? you think i don't have access to 11/12 season on opta? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Shirley07: 2:06pm On Dec 16, 2014 |
@elampiro and Coogar, what are you busy arguing about? Whether Carrick came on the pitch at so so time or not OR Rooney chipped in longballs or not, it doesn't change the fact that neither are playmakers. No doubt Van Gaal is relying on Carrick to be the playmaker but the truth is Carrick is a holding midfielder masquarading as a deeplying playmakers, same as Blind. And for the record, Long passes are majorly for switching play to the wings, which is just a section of playmaking. Orchestrating is not all about pinging long ball. If it was, Charlie Adam would be the best playmaker the world has ever known. That said, what Manutd need to complete the jigsaw is a playmaker, not steel. A playmaker is what the team has ever need since Scholes retired. I still remember the 2010 CL final where our midfield of Carrick and Giggs was getting overrun by Barca's midfield but I noticed the moment Scholes came on for the last few minutes, everything changed although all hope was lost then as were already 3-1 down. Can't believe I cried that day. Anyway, Scholes' little cameo made me realise the team need a playmaker. Herrera isn't one neither Blind nor Carrick. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Shirley07: 2:20pm On Dec 16, 2014 |
parrotibaba:In his wildest dream, not when the team is relying on luck to bail them out. Anyway, who knows what will happen in Jan window. That said, I don't know what better playmaker you're talking about 'cos Mata was never a playmaker to begin with. And I told you already, a playmaker work isn't measured by goals and assists. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 2:23pm On Dec 16, 2014 |
Coogar, I think one of your major ptoblems is that you don't pay attention to details. I can't keep repeating myself. The only one more thing I would say is that Cleverley only touched the ball once in 5 minutes he spent on the field. So we could say that was Carrick. At the end, Rooney competed more passes than Carrick+Cleverley. The time between Cleverley's injury and Carrick's introduction was 4 minutes the highest. If you want to change the argument, na you know. I never said Rooney had more passes than Carrick in the season. I used different matches and season passes per minute to prove that Rooney had far more passes than other forwards, and even defenders For instance: 18 March 2012, Wolves 0 Man United 5 Rooney 76 passes, Chicharito 18 passes. Both played for 90 minutes. Only Scholes made more passes than Rooney. Welbeck played from the left wing and made only 45 passes. Yet we would be made to believe both Rooney and Chicha played as two strikers like RVP and Falcao. And Rooney was said to be 9? Ukwu!!! |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 2:30pm On Dec 16, 2014 |
Shirley07: That argument has nothing to do with playmaking. |
