I mentioned this yesterday. Just like when we wanted Sancho in. I said its like we are praying for Sancho to be bought so that when the play rubbish, the poor boy will hopefully do some magic to secure some or all points. Lets stop playing rubbish first

Only Fred was on Trincao and Adama and the other CMs. Make them kill am na

Bruno style of play at the moment won't make the team plays good football. Yes.... he's gonna bang Goals and Assists but at expense good football.

Bruno is no longer helping the pivot to make transition to Attack easy, rather he's already on the run into the Box, expecting Pogba or Lindelof/Varane to play long pass.

This is not the Day, but one Day we'll definitely discuss Bruno on this Board.

It's not unusual on this Board. Let them keep enjoying the moment while it lasts. We ain't saying Bruno is a bad Player, rather should be helping the Pivot to control midfield and letting Attackers do their Job.

Sancho was lost on the Pitch yesterday, thanks to honorable Bruno, coz he won't let the young man enjoy his Wing.

This is not the Day to dicuss Bruno Effect on the Team, but I am so sure the Day is coming. If DDG could be condemned on this Board, then no one is safe.

I remember that time now. I said Greenwood was already the best finisher and people were laughing until Amaka himself said it sometime later.

What was funny was that people who had never seen him play were ready to argue while having zero knowledge of the subject matter. cheesy

Someone that at age 16 had already deciphered the secret of finishing like Darth Plagueis. Barring catastrophic injury the number of goals he will score is dem booku.

Darth Plagueis bayi grin

Menh the United fanbase boast the best of the pack when you’re talking about culture and the arts. I bet Afrodoc is one of those who will stain their lips with nothing but the finest products of a renowned Swiss Château.

There’s one other fan base like that.... make I nor too talk...

So Bruno is disturbing Sancho in his wing, he is hindering Pogba and Fred, he is disturbing Greenwood because he is a small boy. Very soon Bruno will be blamed for standing close to Ole during a match making him to make wrong sub

Manchester United can confirm that Amad has sustained a thigh muscle injury in training and is likely to be out for six weeks.

Unfortunately, this happened just before his planned loan move to Feyenoord.

Amad will remain at United and rehabilitate back to full fitness.

Don't play Pogba in DM unless you're going to partner him with a high-energy DM, otherwise na tears. Yesterday we played two defensive liabilities for CM, nawa sha. I already knew what to expect but mehn, did I get even more disappointed?

VDB doesn’t keep the ball.

Keeping the ball is steadying the ship, don’t need one player to hang on to the ball for a long time, just recycle possession, others will create chances, while the skillful ones will hold on to the ball.

I just tire o... Rashford played the same position as Sancho with Bruno and Rashy bobo was scoring and assisting well. Sancho better step up his game or e go sit for bench.

In the Final agaisnt Argentina I watched the full match live. He was atrocious, Peredes and that new athletico guy were having a field day in first half. Brazilian coach chalked him off at half time

You only watched the final. Fred did really well in the competition.

While Bruno was doing his best to achieve this, other players especially Fred was doing the opposite LMAO

Omo, I hate Bruno for one thing, impatience. Other players will give you the ball, and you will just throw it away in 1 sec without regret or anything.

He makes 1 quality/creative pass out of 10 or so in very game. Efficiency is key.

Man city: Rodri (DM) had the highest number of passes last season.

Chelsea: Jorginho (DM) had the highest number of passes last season.

Should we check for Man utd?


grin grin grin

Bros, it’s the system abeg. You think VDB or even Fred won’t have high number of passes under Pep? That’s why we need to hold on to the ball as a team for long. Helps tire out the opposition and helps our forwards make the right moves.

Neves and Moutinho where free because Wolves were playing 3 at the back and our wingers James and Sancho were ineffective. So Bruno should troble 5 defenders alone? How can he link Midfield and attack when the Midfield is non existent. So Bruno should go and get the ball from Varane/Maguire then go ahead and trouble Wolves back 5? While Fred and Pogba will be eating salad
I never really understand the argument. Bruno plays like a second striker most of the time so I no really understand why we're trying to pretend that's not the case
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by ChristineC: 11:55am On Aug 30, 2021

Are you sure the midfield is being helped? Pogba and Fred's possession yesterday is almost double that of Bruno.

Touches of the ball
Wolves midfield
Neves 80
Moutinho 61
Marçal 67
Semedo 56

United midfield
Fred 86
Pogba 93
Bruno 63

their three CB Saïss, Kilman and Coady had 143 total touches, only Varane and Maguire had 144.

the only reason they created better was because they passed better and with better intent, and the first half which they played well was a hack challenge on United players which the ref allowed for reasons best known to him.

I talked about his game during the Euros but some folks here jumped at his defense. The thing with folks here is that when a match is ongoing, you see folks talking about the very issues affecting the team but once we some how manage to bag the 3 pts, they forget about all the issues they had earlier pointed out...

When a match is ongoing, you hardly see Bruno between the midfield and attack and when he is around that position and gets the ball, he loses it because he is so much in a hurry to release the pass...With Ronaldo, he will need to be more a creator, a patient one at that because CR7 will not hesitate to do to him what he does to others...
Which is?

I understand your point, but we scored more than 40+ goals from that impatience pass last season and he created the highest no of chances and big chance creation in EPL.

Even the more efficient KDB assisted the same no of goals(12) with our wuruwuru AM.

Sign a DM and teach Pogba how to play in a double pivot.
