You don't expect Wan-Bissaka to attack when the player in front of him is Daniel James who more often than not, hugs the touch line.

The one time AWB delivered a cross into the box, he found Lingard who missed and another time, Lingard was caught flat footed after AWB passed a great ball to him.

It will be difficult for any fullback to play with Daniel James and still function in attack. At the moment, seeing that Shaw is our weakest link defensively and in view of DJ's defensive contribution, I'd play DJ on the left and Rashford as RWF (not RW)

“We dominated possession, we got the first goal, which is a great goal and in the second half we knew Wolves were going to come out like a house on fire. They gambled a little bit, created a couple of chances and probably got the goal they deserved for the pressure they had. I thought we then took control again and could have won it."

Lingard should never start ahead of Gomes in that number 10 role again. No be rocket science, but Ole dey do like airhead.

I won't be surprised (but very pained) if Gomes leaves on a free next summer.
Have said it several times without number.... OGS won't drop lingard even if he performed more worse than this


OGS needs to have sense as it won't turn out great for him starting that beans all the time, he needs to stay out of the goddamn match day for 3 consecutive matches maybe he will have sense


Imagine not scoring or assisting a goal since January and he kept using the deadwood

The improvement in defense was so evident with the way players confidently passed the ball back to build up play.

I just didn't like how Luke Shaw took of advantage of it to in reducing his attacking prowess... he passed it back a lot even when there was a possibility of attacking.

Mourinho was actually right when he said he (Mourinho) makes the decision while Shaw body executes it


Yesterday on different occasions he will just stand for seconds looking clueless and not knowing where to pass the ball

A serious competition is needed for him to have sense

Adama was introduced to keep Shaw back and it worked. I expected OGS to move James to the left and Rashford to the right.
AWB needed no help defensively, so we should have moved our attack overload to right side while James aided Shaw to push back Adama.
Mata sub was a waste of aces.
Dalot should take Young's spot on the bench at least, this is pure foolishness.

One of his shortcomings I spotted last season. His lack of flair with his one foot is a liability to his forward passing and it hinders the team's build up play. If he is blocked from advancing along the line, he is mostly going to reverse or square pass. Evra and Giggs were never like that. Young was never like that. Under Gaal Young became our most unpredictable player going into the final third. He gave some too under Moutinho and necessitated his call up to the Three Lions for world cup.

Shaw also gives the opposing number 7 too much space. When you look at the stats you would say he was not dribbled past, only because he didnt go to tackle his man. But I will still give him benefit of doubt.

Or even Gomes.

Our play is too slow and there is nothing a number 10 can do. The opponent regroups in their own third while we are still making safe and slow passing in midfield. We cannot go anywhere with this kind of style coming from stiff players. The ones that have skills to pass are too slow. Pogba and Mata.

2011/2012

Top Assists in the EPL

Silva 33 starts (15 Assists)
Valencia 22 starts (13 Assists)
Mata 29 starts (13 Assists)

Valencia gave all his Assists from open play which made him the highest on that rating. He also was the highest on per minutes played. He added 4 goals that season. Won Manchester United player of the season.

Valencia received the Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year and the Manchester United Players' Player of the Year awards for his contributions in the 2011–12 season. He also won the Manchester United Goal of the Season award for his goal against Blackburn Rovers on 2 April 2012.

He once had a peak. Also his first season. But his leg break caused a calamity

Even airmark knows that what's happening in Madrid, Spain is a disgrace. I mean they both play the left wing and Perez is bidding over 200m for Neymar. I won't be surprised to see Hazard out of the season on injury if Neymar makes the move to Madrid

He’s not ready. Not solid defensively and his offensive play is not enough to earn him a starting position. They’re working on him.

In summary, I don’t know why he hasn’t played. He’s been left out of the squad for both games this season. Just like egbon Smalling

Yeah. That wasn’t wise. Should’ve been 80 or at most 83min.

Top 4 at least. It’s achievable. Let’s see how we play Crystal Palace this weekend.

Na with fire and brimstone we suppose approach that match.

We are definitely beating Palace. I have no doubt about that.

My major concern has always been lack of replacement for the players that left. The squad is very thin and I already know Lingard or Mata can’t be trusted. Even D. James does not seem ready. I want to see more of Greenwood, Gomez, Chong and the likes. Seeing Lingard again n again irks the hell out of me.

Also, I pray Ole improves on his in-game management, it seems he get confused or clueless when things are not going as planned.

Yes oo, Sanchez might just be what we need behind the striker at least till we buy a quality replacement in the TW.

Loaning him out when the squad is very thin doesn’t make seem, we are just weakening the squad the more.

The quality of his subs started going downhill after that PSG victory. I sincerely hope he fixes things up.

The squad is thin but with those kids it won’t be. Don’t know how long it’ll take him to “ease them in”. The season is still long sha.

Maybe we’ll have to get a player or two in in January.

How...Why is Rashford still taking freekicks? You have 2/3 6 foot players in the box waiting for a cross yet you still dey play this kind rubbish....every single time.

He hasn't even scored a freekick since that lucky one at Cardiff back in December. Sometimes i just wonder if Ole throws these guys on the pitch and tells them to go and do whatever they want undecided
