it turns out united are actually the healthiest & this was when we had about 40 squad players under fergie. enough deadwoods milking the club dry. after van gaal's massive clearout, you can bet we won't even reach 50% wage/turnover ratio this season.

we are very very very healthy!!!

Making his mark with Porto, where he bagged 41 goals in 50 Liga Sagres appearances, the 28-year-old continued his goalscoring form with Atlético Madrid, netting 52 in 68
league games.

Chaii..Falcao

All this we are healthy yarns don dey wear out form already.

You go tell me how ''mentally'' healthy you lot are when una fail to win a major laurel this season having spent close to £200m in the tranfer market.

Don't worry, we will talk when the next prospectus comes out and the less publicized details of finances are disclosed. Its just a pity that after the last one that divulge more than the Glazers wanted, they are now ensuring that only committed investors get a full nitty griity copy (the one that gives clues to where the bodies are buried ). But still, some of the less rosy details will come out.

elampiro: I read Welbeck forced his way out by fire by force. He refused a loan deal.

He must bne angry at how Sturridge has progressed far ahead of him. And Welbeck was the better talent.

Welbeck better than Sturridge? How? I don't even rate English players but Sturridge is light years better than Welbeck

elampiro:

* If he doesn't need a surgery then his performance is nothing to rejoice about. He falls down even before he collects a pass, as Kanu use to do in his final days of football.

* We should not use Rooney, Mata and RVP in same match again. Except if Rooney is playing in the wing. Or they have to be given a new orientation. Just look at Robben and Ribery how hard working they are.

let's just assume its because he's just come from holidays and he joined the team late, because of match fitness/sharpness and all That.

If there's one thing I trust LVG for, its that he has balls.
I trust him to drop any under performing player and subsequently kick his butt when his attitude begins to stink.

May be you started watching them recently. In their developemetal days, Welbeck was the better talent.

afrodoc2:

One of RVP,Rooney or Mata drops to the bench. Likely going to be RVP initially but if Mata starts slacking nothing stops LVG from dropping him and playing Rooney behind RVP and Falcao for certain matches. We will need an all action midfield for that to happen though.
Having said all that what determines who gets dropped is the formation LVG wants to use.....or it could be the other way round u never can tell with LVG.

in a standard 433 there's only one spot for falcao, rooney and RVP and no place for mata.

I'll watch how he'll handle thiis sha.
Some players will definitely need to adapt to playing outside their comfort zones and put in very good performances. That's almost certain

A40:

Before Sturridge went to Liverpool. Welbeck was the better rated talent.

igbsam:

Trust the english press to want to overhype one of their own. The truth and gospel truth is that all english players have become so sooooooooo so lazy. They lack focus, lacks confidence and are always in and out of form. The only 2 consistent english players for now are Sterling and Sturridge. The rest are just so lazy and lacks confidence. I dare them to go play outside the EPL......u will never see them cos their nyash go open. Cleverly is a Lazy player who has no inch of sense in his head. Good thing we got rid of him. They can cry all they want. We just removed a dead wood from the ManU squad. If only rooney too can follow suit.

lol. Did u even read the article at all?
Celeverly is and isn't a lot of things but 1 thing I won't call cleverley is lazy.
He is one of the most hardworking players u can find around.

Can you expantiate what you mean by a better talent??

Dhellake: Can you expantiate what you mean by a better talent??

They were both strikers who were played out of position at their clubs at the time...but Welbeck was already an established member of the England squad before Sturridge's move to Liverpool.

this illiterate didn't see was there. Smh.

Smh for people who think overly criticising english football at the slightest opportunity irrespective of if its called for or not.

That seems to be the newest way to look 'cool' these days . Smh again

MrTA:

Better rated by who? Because he played for United? Sturridge has been a prodigious talent (for English standards) since his days at Blackburn at no point was Welbeck the better player

Better talent? Welbeck with the coordination of a baby giraffe in front of goal? Perhaps it is you that started watching them recently

Forget about national team, Bernard plays for Brazil while Coutinho doesn't, as at 08/09 season, Sturridge was already starting league games, he played 16 games, scored 4, 3assists, Scored 8 goals in 12 while on loan at Bolton, He dribbles better, obviously has more football intelligence than Welbeck, how then was Welbeck a better"TALENT"??

Daniel Sturridge play for Blackburn? Maybe on PS 2 (or NL) but not in real life.

welbeck was the better talent!
until sturridge went to liverpool & brendan rodgers played him in his preferred position. welbeck couldn't enjoy such luxury in united cos united have always had quality strikers in their book.

go & look at welbeck's record for sunderland & how he destroyed chelsea at stamford bridge when he was on loan. he was miles ahead of sturridge until recently. welbeck will shine for arsenal unless wenger shoves him to the wing again.

You fvcked up when you claimed Sturridge had more football intelligence than Welbeck.

Most Chelsea fans I know will tell you Sturridge was extremely wasteful on the flanks, reluctant to track back, trying stuppid skills were a pass would suffice ultimately giving away possesion....and I dont blame him...he is a natural striker...and the best strikers are naturally selfish

Welbeck on the other hand, understood the game well...perhaps too well...and that's the reason why he was starting at the biggest club in the UK in some of the biggest games domestically and in Europe.

He ended up suffering for his versatility by displaying his intelligence...Hodgson and Ferguson knew that he understood thier tactics and would play to the letter...unlike Sturridge who played like a 9 even when he was on the wing....

Sturridge's stubborness paid off in the end....but Welbeck has always been miles ahead of Sturridge in the intelligence category

You have to look at the context, why won't Sturridge have played matches that season? He was competing with Darius Vassell, Benjani,and Valeri Bojinov
Welbeck was competing with Rooney,Tevez,Berbatov,Cristiano Ronaldo and Louis Saha

Tell me who would get more opportunities?

6 goals in 26, that doesn't show him as a better talent

definitely.
dribbling and finishing i give to sturridge but at city and chelsea shooting from corner flag and other femi opabunmi exploits showed he was still lacking in the intelligence section....he is much better now though.

What happened this Nigga sef?

The great Benjani of Pompey....e no get any nightclub for Portsmouth\Bristol wey the man no dey rock back in the day

Dhellake: 6 goals in 26, that doesn't show him as a better talent

it does - considering the shyte midfield he had behind him. he was the better talent, the one with the better football brain. sturridge is just a trigger-happy player. he shoots from all angles & he gets the lucky break.

there's a reason welbeck got into 3 lions way before sturridge did. brendan rodgers revived sturridge when he partnered him with suarez & coutinho was feeding them with quality passes. even till today, sturridge hasn't sorted his selfishness. he frustrated the life out of suarez.

Sturiddge was also starting in big domestic and European games, he even won us some big games, as much as he was played out of position, he got into double figures for us, what more?? Welbeck can't be selfish when he can't even dribble, he can't even think out of the box, he plays football the raw way, that's not intelligence, compare their goals, their movements and you would know who is more intelligent
