So for this life, the only person wey fit unleash vdb na only ten Haag? grin
So if no ten Haag, no vdb be that.
From solkjaer to Carrick to Rangnick to Lampard grin

Anyways, Next season no far again sha grin

See ehn... Let's be fair and objective; VDB never really had the chance, plus he was constantly under pressure to prove himself, and that mindset can fvck with a player's confidence.

When I'm talking about chances, let's take Fred for instance. Under Mourinho, Fred struggled a lot and even when Ole came in, Fred continued struggling until Pogba got injured and it became inevitable for Ole to Pair Fred & McTom for our games.

That was when Fred started getting enough game time. I mean, he'd make grave mistakes, but as Pogba dey injured options no really dey like that. So, that was how Fred broke into the first team.

But of course some people expect VDB to start turning water to wine immediately undecided. Where's the game time?

How can you use a player once in a blue moon and expect him to have that confidence?

Where's the morale and encouragement?

Cast your mind back and tell me how many times VDB started EPL games.

He came into a confused United team from Ajax and it was so easy to tell he was the odd one out. You know why? It's cos people who're excelling aren't used to mediocre things. How can one play footy at the top level and come to an 'express yourself' team that's clearly void of team work, and you expect magic from him.

It was easy for Bruno to hit the ground running because Ole's dubious counter attack set up suited him really well. You can see how he struggled last season because Ralf came in with a 'we must dominate our games' agenda.

I've seen countless times that we recovered ball in our half, gave it to Bruno and the man couldn't even keep the ball, but instead played a stupid pass that was intercepted.

Omo, anybody wey dey watch United games wella, and is honest will tell you about how Bruno's always eager to release the ball prematurely. It's annoying ffs and he needs to work on that Shaolin soccer mindset.

The better for us. If VDB steps up, good for Bruno, he gets to have the occasional deserved rest he needs, good squad depth for the manager as well.

I just hope everyone keeps the VDB campaign down, he's nowhere near Bruno's level.

Lol, you sabi ball.

The only player that can manage to bench him is Erikssen.

Lemme ask you a question.
Cast your mind back to when Bruno was signed and then when Vdb was signed. Who do you think was under more pressure to perform.
You think Bruno entering into a team where Una dey score binary goals and was indeed lacking creativity wouldn't be a pressure on him to perform?
Lingard, perriera, Pogba were all counter attack merchants, why didn't they give the type of impact Bruno did? You guys seems to forget all these things sha

And as for Vdb, I agree he wasn't given minutes but was he signed to bench Bruno or signed to see if he'll break into the first team?
I feel it was the latter and while Ole might treat him unfairly given his minutes, what will you say about Rangnick and Lampard?

I no even see the hype around Vdb to be honest sha. Nobody is even saying he won't see more starts next season but the way you guys are hyping him as if he's one Kdb-wannabe, naim I no understand.

You've already ruled out Bruno and seemed certain that vdb will always see first shirt cos of ETH. August-Dec no too far again sha(esp Aug). Na here all of us dey

Eth plays possession based footy.I expect bruno to make amendments as a top player.people forget we never had a style under ole, rangnick was disappointing, a player can be reckless on the ball with no clear instructions on how to play as a team.

Nobody is saying VDB is better but he is better suited to the system compared to Bruno (At least from what we know of Bruno)...

Bruno has to tweak his game a bit to fit in. The question is; can he and how fast?

It's baffling that you read all what I wrote and deduced that I've written Bruno off oh. You can check my previous posts about this matter and you'll see that I've been consistent with same message of 'bruno needs to work on his ball retention' - a message which his worshippers no like to hear.

You seem to have me mistaken for someone who hates Bruno oh. And then again, I never really compared Bruno and KDB. I have never compared them.

Feel free to check my previous posts and point out the anomalies and contradictions because at this point I'm confused.

What's even more strange is how you're telling me about Bruno's struggle - like Idg how it's relevant to what I wrote.

Walahi I'm confused grin
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by LostMyZeal(m): 7:59pm On Jul 10, 2022
Before you crucify VDB, give him the kinda playing time that mumu Ole gave to Fred

That's the summary and main point of the epistle I wrote oh.


let VDB make mistakes and still play the next games - if he doesn't deliver, you can crucify him

Anything short of this, you're only just being insensitive.

Lol, Maybe I did mistake you for someone who dislikes Bruno (not hate per se) at the expense of vdb reason why my responses are like that.

To me, I feel Bruno will adapt. I still believe vdb will come from bench and alternate with Eriksen as Bruno will become a mainstay.

Hopefully, we'll see how this season pans out for you guys

I don't fancy Neves, he's a reactive player, very different to Frenkie. Don't know how he'll handle being a deep playmaker in a possession based team while he's played all these while in defensive counter attacking setup. A name I like is Parades.

VDB survived at ajax because he didn't have to be a creator in that system, ajax had a lot of creators in tadic to de jong to ziyech even neres.

Anyway I won't be surprised if Bruno is benched afterall we've a coach that's he'll bent on reunion with ex players, instead of building a new 1.
