And Bailly covered that Maguire shits yesterday before he's subbed. Elamp sometimes ehn... undecided

That defence was our weakest department in that match. We could have conceded two goals in the second half due to the fault of the poor positioning of the central defenders if we played against a better side.

And then what we see always is talk about midfield. We have Pogba who was supposedly world best midfielder before he arrived. We have Matic who is 33 years old, same age Xavi was still ruling the world. These two cannot hold down their positions, but allowing Fred and McTominay to sometimes bench them. Now what we hear always we have no good midfielders. In a team we have Pogba and Matic. If Fred and McTominay are benching them, then credit to the latter dou instead of criticism.

Look at the last match, defenders would have conceded three goals from poor reading of the game by the CBs. But all we hear is midfielders.

The interm and conte can't improve this team.

I don't see any difference in Tottenham play from jose..

Dia best football was under poch

Will you even calm down sef? What’s with you people sef and instant success on the pitch. When did Conte take the job? Quickly forgotten how terrible spurs were when he took the job? Suddenly expecting mind blowing football?

Really liked the year awards idea from the Gooners thread. Will drop my own take here


1. Best United player
2. Best Young player (youth players only)
3. Best goal
4. Best fan on this thread
5. Best troll (non-United fans) on this thread.

For me, I'll go with:

1. Has to be Edinson Cavani for me. The only one who has not been consistently terrible over spathes of time. The only argument against him is he keeps getting injured.

2. I'd go with Shola Shoretire. Hannibal was injured mostly.

3. Alex Telles strike against Young Boys. Timely and stylish too.

4. Oas.is007. Always kept us updated with training pics. Kudos

5. Nihilis.tjnr. The "Alain Devil-Maximin" quip was funny as a muthaf.

Y'all can add yours

My opinion

Best United Player for 2021 is DDG. He was the most consistent and has had been really good since about March/April. Contenders are Shaw who had a monster Jan-June but fell off the cliff thereafter and Cavani who was also good but had too many injuries for me.

Best Young player for 2021 is probably Shoretire with McNeill a close 2nd if you don't count those on loan. If you include those on loan it has to be Ethan Laird with Garner 2nd. Mejbri, Elanga, Amad had niggling injuries all year long. Mengi had a disastrous 2020-2021 season.

Best Goal is Greenwood against Leicester. Bruno's goals against Everton and Newcastle were also good.

Best Fan is probably Oa.sis007 with his regular updates.

1. For me it just has to be BRUNO, highest goals, highest assists and highest appearance in 2021 for the Portuguese mangnifico.
2. Definitely shoretire, he plays with such maturity, close behind him for me is Charlie McNeil, just love that boy, hope he makes it here.
3. I will go with the goal that was most emotional to me even if it wasn't that great a goal, it was Ronaldo Header vs Atlanta, lost my voice that night.
4. Bikeman cheesy, scratch that, it is patrickmuf for me grin.
5. Trebbor grin (deep down I know he isn't a united fan)

I hope you're not trying to brandish McFred as the best combo since yam and palm oil

If you look at our gameplay closely, you go easily see say we dey handicapped for that middle

How often do you see passes over the top from our clueless midfield? It's always been more of epileptic ground passes.

And to be fair to Pogba, he cannot thrive in a kick and run set up... That's for the Brunos of this world.

I'm not a Pogba fan, but when you reduce the tempo you go see him magic.


Shaolin soccer no be for the likes of Pogba and Matic

This is defending Pogba.

It is even a wake up call to Pogba that McTominay and Fred are are selected ahead of him. Pogba is playing under the 3rd manager with three different style of play he is still doing catch up withcTominay
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 2:25pm On Jan 02, 2022
Pogba even once played alongside Herrera. He played with Matic when Matic was still somewhat sharp. We once had Herrera, Pogba and Matic, and it was still same complain about midfield.

Rangnick: "He [Martial] made it very clear that he wants to leave and, in a way, I can understand his wish to leave and to try to play more regularly somewhere else.

"But again, it's a question not only of what he wants to do but also a question of which kind of clubs are interested in him and the demands of the club. We have to wait and see."
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 3:23pm On Jan 02, 2022
Rangnick: "We spoke about Edi [Cavani] and he knows that I will definitely not let him go [in January] — we will definitely need Edi. I would rather have another Edi on top of that but for me it's clear that Edi has to stay.

"We had quite a few conversations in the last couple of weeks - probably the player with whom I have spoken most. I told him from the very first day, for me he is a highly important player.

"He is probably the only one who can play as a striker back to goal and face to goal."

Rangnick: "His [Cavani] professionalism, his work ethic is just amazing and I told him I desperately want him to stay until the end of the season. He knows that and knows how highly I rate him and how highly I respect him.

"I think you understand I don't want to speak about individual players in public. I know from some players that they want to leave. We spoke about Edi [Cavani] and he knows I definitely will not let him go."
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 3:26pm On Jan 02, 2022
Rangnick asked what Van de Beek has to do to play: "Well, just work hard. So far, as I have got to know him he's got a top mentality, he works hard in every training session, is a team player through and through and there will be games where he gets his chance to play."

Wake up call...

I'd prefer for Pogba's watch to end sha

And then again, we can't rely on McFred kpata kpata... don't even wanna consider that possibility

It's crrringy

It doesn't hurt to have a Veratti and Bissouma in our midfield ...then throw VDB in the mix and imagine it cool

Fred and McTominay are the scapegoat of the team, just as Rooney was from 2013/2014 to the day he left. He was said to be holding back Kagawa, Chicharito, Mkhitaryan, Martial, and ofcourse the whole squad. "Remove Rooney and United will play fluid football" was the song after every match day. Since he left, we have not won even a rubber cup.

Now McFred are the sacrificial lamb in a team where an £80m midfielder exists.

It's easy to see you're hell bent on crucifying Pogboom.

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by MRTA7: 4:36pm On Jan 02, 2022

Rumours has it thatRangnick wants Declan Rice and United putting £100m together.

Correction: He agrees to the buy, not that he requested.
