Elxandre:

Must players stick to a particular position?


Ramos used to be one of the Best Right back in the world till Mourinho turned him CB fully.
Has that made him a 'failed' player?

Seriously, you no know ball.

weedtaker:
he's not Jose's kind of stroker, you ain't a newbie na, you suppose know jose type.

Elxandre:
Poole.

sinizia:


If we're looking to get back to our former glory, then giving Ibra a new contract is a no-no. He holds up play very well, but his pace is a total turn off. Aubameyang or the Rashford of last season would've gotten two one-on-one chances with a better pace. Ibra needs to leave after this season. With Madrid on a transfer ban, Aubameyang should be our main target and we're good to go.

That one na up barka fan..

Mourinho SA on positives na codedguy1

Kagawa10:


What would you then say about Kane? Also, at his best, his vision and linkup play are quality!

But you're right, we need to do better than a 36 yrs old striker.

elrony:
Abeg sinizia, no forget to tell Mou to sign a midfielder, Carrick is aged and needs retirement, Pogba can't be trusted!

Leyqute:


Pardon me, thought twas him.

Our next match is away at Crystal Palace, then away at West Brom.

We need to start picking up maximum points.

Mourinho SA on positives na codedguy1

sinizia:


I don't know how we do it, but Kane doesn't score against us. He doesn't even play well against us. He's scored all the top dogs but United cage him all the time. It's a mystery to me. Long may it continue Sha.

sinizia:


Walahi, we need Carrick's permanent replacement. It's a taboo that our best holding DM is 36. Kai, we need to look forward and not keep recycling old men.

codedguy1:


Abeg ooo people that saw positives in our games even when we were constantly eating draw soup know themselves.

My comments on draw soup were even a form of lamenting. So how I take become sa on positives to Mourinho dey wonder me.

forap:
Herrera is the player who gives stability to the team, take Herrera away from this team, you will see Manu become cowardly and dominated in the midfield against technical teams. To me Herrera is the player Mourinho can't do without in Manu, he has really helped the team in terms of pressing. At times when he goes for the ball, and he couldn't retrieve the ball, he points to space where any surrounding Manu players should cover so as to retrieve the ball back.

Kagawa10:


Stability kor! Carrick is that player..

No doubt that Herrera's pressing has been important considering the slow paced Carrick and Pogba's listless display but the team stability is Carrick. Carrick's reading of the game and ability to close down the space in the midfield is top notch!

Kagawa10:


I don't even rate him. He's like a poor man's Aguero but sluggish! Capable of the odd moment of brilliance especially while putting his physique to good use but offers little else in the game.

He still young though.

Stability kor! Carrick is that player..

No doubt that Herrera's pressing has been important considering the slow paced Carrick and Pogba's listless display but the team stability is Carrick. Carrick's reading of the game and ability to close down the space in the midfield is top notch! Not forgetting his ability to dictate the play from deep!

FBS howfar na?...

The sun don pursue you comot here?

Kagawa10:


Dunno. That's the scary thing..

If Pogba had been a complete midfielder we wouldn't need Herrera beside him. Same goes for Carrick, that is, if he had been properly replaced, we wouldn't need an Herrera either. If at all we need someone like him, it would be better going for the complete package like Vidal, Kante.

However, If he can keep improving his defensive arts, I might begin to see him in that category!

sinizia:


I think he's a good striker but the praises he's getting is way over the top. This dude has scored against 21 of the 29 teams he's faced. That's a good record. I didn't want him at United coz we'd have to pay exorbitantly for him. I'm glad he's signed a new contract meaning he'll be costing up to 90m by now. A good way to make sure United don't waste another money on a player not worth it.

FBS:

I beg ya pardon? What is you talking about?

forap:


Play Carrick, Pobga and Fellaini against Man city, Tottenham or Arsenal, and you will see how Carrick closes up space better.

Added: Herrera is the one that will replace Carrick.

My bad , I thought FBS was FBS

SailorXY:
elampiro be looking @ all those who castigated Jones now singing his praise like

elrony:


During CK? ....

When you see that kind Pena last?

No be only Pena, na Penarity

SailorXY:
what they fail to get is that a team need players with lesser ego to put their bodies on the line for maybe other more talented players to shine.

You look @ Fergie's team of recent past & see men like Vidic, JS Park, Keane, Tevez, Rooney, Fletcher, Fortune, etc who made a lot of sacrifices despite their own talents/desires.

Real Madrid tried the All-Star All-Ego route after they let Makalele go, only to fall back to Thomas 'fucking' Graveson.

What a player like Herrera brings is desire & passion, something that should spur others on the pitch to break a bone for the win, such can also be found in Valencia, Bailly, Jones, Lingard & Mata. Jose is doing his best to leverage that rare quality.

I used to defend Herrera cuz I thought he does it with his soul but when I noted the majority voice here didn't see what his contribution is, I lock up make e no be like say Herrera na my cousin or something.

codedguy1:


I asked you 2 simple questions, you are talking about IF pogba had been a complete midfielder. Ok Now that pogba is NOT a complete midfielder who should consistently play beside him from the present squad we have that will help our course. Since the incomplete midfielder must play and Herrera is a workhorse and a red card waiting to happen.

Let me help you Carrick, schweni, fellaini, Depay, young, schneiderlin, and Poole?
