Exactly.

However Nididi passes the eye test. I don't think his passing too bad.
It's not atrocious, at least he doesn't pass to advertising boards grin

I watched his last two matches. He was peerless.

Someome should compare Kante's 2015/16 and 2016/17 stats to Ndidi's current stats, but also look at passing stats ie total attempted, accuracy, success with long balls, average range. They are very necessary if a DM like that will play in your team.

Come on now. I don't think anyway is comparing Ndidi to peak Kante. I believe the point is that Ndidi has quietly been performing at a high level without much hype.

Is it because he plays for a smaller club or he's just good

United will not buy. When others buy we begin to regret. I used similar stats to make an argument for him in another forum at the end of last season.

We are only after big names in top clubs in Europe where we would be required to pay 100m

No, I actually saw on a YouTube video that some of Ndidi's stats are similar or close. It's not hype. I'm just saying that's the best benchmark to use.

Unfortunately you are right. If it is not a world record or if he won't play piano or dance salsa at his unveiling they won't buy.

Like someone said, Woodward has been running Manchester United Business Club instead of Manchester United Football Club.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:36am On Dec 28, 2018
If I remember correctly, Ndidi won the highest tackle per minutes played in the top leagues of Europe.

Let me check if I can get the stats from where I shared it.

Ndidi averaging 1.4 tackles and 2 interceptions LESS than Leicester Kante. It is not really close.

How are his attacking stats? Passing stat? I like him but it's a different ball game when you play in a possession team that needs DM that can initiate attacks from deep and not just concern with winning balls.
We kinda need someone that will win the ball back for us, headers, interception, chase attackers down and so on. Plus, his passes ain't bad... Let's not forget his long range shooting ability grin In the epl now, who would you rather buy not named kante?

Ndidi won the highest number of tackles in the EPL last season. Also tackles per minutes played for players having 1000 minutes or more.

He will not be expensive, so nothing wrong trying him.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 11:58am On Dec 28, 2018
Last season he averaged 4.7 tackles per game which is a Kante-level stat but only 1.5 interceptions per game.
This season his stats are more balanced so he is possibly playing a smarter game now.

Van Gaal was the first coach to show interest in Mane, but fans didn't agree he was United class.

Hopefully this will change with a DoF. I'm always of the opinion that there are so many good players in the EPL for cheap that will improve our game in the league and raise our level a bit in Europe.
But Woodward will always want to go for that 80 million player from Spain or Italy.

We have missed very good players. For instance, SAF identified Kante as early as January or February that year as the outstanding player in the Leicester team and the whole of EPL that season. Four months after we didn't bid.

Leicester City will win the Premier League title and has picked out the best-performing player of the season.


The Manchester United legend, who spent a remarkable 26 years in the Old Trafford hot seat, was speaking at a Cheltenham Festival preview launch.

He reckons Leicester will win the title with three matches to spare and believes N’Golo Kanté has been the league’s standout player, ahead of the likes of Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy.

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by obainojazz(m): 12:39pm On Dec 28, 2018
We are back to attacking football, hopefully.. Players will want to join us, not just for huge pay cheque... But for the love of the Club. I don't think Mahrez would have fancied playing under Mourinho, I really wanted that guy embarassed

Yeah I checked his numbers and they're quite as good as the best in the EPL currently. Though I know stats could be misleading but I have always been a fan and won't mind seeing him at Carrington
