There is no way here I have said Matic is world class....
If you thin Schneiderlin is world class then I am sorry, you are a jokebag!
But then maybe it depends on what your criteria is grin

world class is a subjective term.
what you consider world class might be village class to another so i ain't even goin to argue with that ish.

all i am just proving is - schneiderlin is better than matic 5 times over. he's not the only one better than matic, coquelin is also better than matic. before daley blind went to the LB position, his statistics were better than matic.

don't get fooled by the fact that chelsea won the league & that makes every one of their players world class. matic is good but abeg he couldn't have achieved what schneiderlin copped at the saints. their defence last season was world class & schneiderlin was the catalyst!

You still didn't answer my question though. So Rooney's jealousy was towards Kagawa and not VP who stole his shine? Or you mean Kagawa was the favorite player in SAF's last season for Man Utd?

Forget that question is first. I have proven that number 10 is upfront.

Rooney didnt want to play in the wing with some defensive duties while Kagawa plays where he has played generally for United. That was what happened in Madrid.

And Schneiderlin is not world class so scummies, cool your socks!

It's actually because of the fewer games that Schneirderlin's Stats look better.

And your stats don't actually take that into account.

AdeLaNa1:
I'm not here to debate the Rooney BS again. The 4-4-1-1 is understandable but how anyone thinks 4-2-3-1 is a 4-4-2 variant is ridiculous

I didnt mention Rooney in that response.

If you have agreed 4-4-1-1 is not much different from 4-4-2, then you are already agreeing with me.
..........

4–4–1–1
A variation of 4–4–2 with one of the strikers
playing "in the hole", or as a "second striker",
slightly behind their partner. [13] The second
striker is generally a more creative player, the
playmaker, who can drop into midfield to pick
up the ball before running with it or passing to
team-mates. [13] Interpretations of 4–4–1–1
can be slightly muddled, as some might say
that the extent to which a forward has
dropped off and separated himself from the
other can be debated. The system was most
prominently used during the 2009–10 season
by Fulham F.C , with midfielder Zoltan Gera
playing behind forward Bobby Zamora as they
upset many teams across Europe on their way
to the 2010 UEFA Europa League Fina


.........

4–2–3–1
This formation is widely used by Spanish,
French and German sides. While it seems
defensive to the eye, it is quite a flexible
formation, as both the wide players and the
full-backs join the attack. In defense, this
formation is similar to either the 4–5–1 or 4–
4–1–1. It is used to maintain possession of
the ball and stopping opponent attacks by
controlling the midfield area of the field. The
lone striker may be very tall and strong to hold
the ball up as his midfielders and full-backs
join him in attack. The striker could also be
very fast. In these cases, the opponent's
defense will be forced to fall back early,
thereby leaving space for the offensive central
midfielder. This formation is used especially
when a playmaker is to be highlighted. The
variations of personnel used on the flanks in
this set-up include using traditional wingers,
using inverted wingers or simply using wide
midfielders

You didn't know that Alves was stastically inferior. When I compared Val to all the other FB's and showed that he bested them all by your standards, your response was 'That's why I wanted Alves'

It was when we applied the Valencia test to Alves, and saw that he too had failed it.

Anyway, World Class as an appellation is form related, and Yes Matic became world class at Chelsea.

I don't think you understand how averages work.

The more appearances you make, the lower your averages get.

Hence 1/2 bigger than 1/5

He was unhappy about the number 10 not number 9.

He gladly played the number 10 for Moyes when Moyes took over. Dont tell me about contact renewal because Rooney played 10 for Moyes in 2013 before his contract was renewed in 2014.

montelik:
So we chased the relatively young and cost effective strikers we had for the super expensive trio of a 31 year old with a long history and present day fitness issues (RVP), a soon to be 29 year old who plays like he is already in his 30s (Rooney) and a 28 year old who just recovered from a serious knee injury (Falcao).

Wilson, Henriquez e.t.c better be the real deals else we be force to spend big on strikers again soon.

LVG talks about inheriting an unbalanced squad, but besides Rojo and Blind, his other signings aren't exactly correcting the supposed imbalance.

upfront is not number-10, oga!
rooney wanted the number-9 position. he wanted to score more goals thus using the phrase "i had to be selfish". how can he be selfish in the hole when players in the hole are basically used as providers?

stop trolling, abeg....


Look at United official website described the number 10 as upfront in a 3-4-1-2 formation.
..........



Van Gaal tried some of his squad members in
new positions on the pre-season tour of the
United States. Ashley Young was deployed as
a wing-back, Wilfried Zaha played up front
and Kagawa adopted a holding midfield role.
"It has been seven or eight years since I
played as a defensive midfielder, but the
important thing is I do my best in whatever
position I am asked to play in," Kagawa said.
"I have to achieve results wherever I play.

Walahi, these haters have been chewing hate panadol since the 1305. Looking at them perching their tent on a man u thread. They have absconded from their own thread cos it reeks of failure. They want to make their voice heard here. Who doesn't want to be known with a more successful club in the history of english football even the germans know it. Either hate or like, they just want to say something here.

I dare them not to keep commenting here and watch ebola hit them from the next person sitting close to them. Carry man u matter for head like Edward.

And i said this

I like the comments of Man utd fans so far, they will be good for future references.

Southampton conceeded the least number of goals in d league last season. And Schneiderlin was an integral part of that feat. That's some impressive somtin. Which is why of all our signings, its Schneiderlin dat makes me d most happy. Dude is a very solid and composed DM. Plus he's Young. Plenty of time to be even better than Carrick

You are trying to judge who is better by stats(which is silly anyway)

You compare Rafael per 90( 5 games) to Valencia (20 games)

Can you not see the obvious flaw in that? Or do I have to spoon feed you?
