KingAlabi: I am really very disappointed in Chong, he looked like the real deal at some point. I am not sure you are more disappointed than i am. I always knew Greenwood was the surer bet but i believed Chong also had the potential to make it here but with so many people on the queue behind him i think its time we moved on, and for his won good as well. |

Oasis007: Chong shouldn't be part of Pre-Season, same as Pellestri, Levitt, Laird and Garner. They should be loaned out again and I expect it to have happened by now.
Ethan and Hugill should remain at the Club but with U23 Team.
Tuanzebe doesn't need loan, he should be outrightly sold, same as Jones. Elanga, Mengi, Mejbri, Shoretire, Amad should be part of first Team this Season. 1) Chong: Sell. He has had 2 loan deals and has not impressed in either. Now has Rashford, Martial, Sancho, Greenwood, Pogba ahead of him AND he would be blocking the chances of Amad, Elanga, Shoretire, Mejbri long term. Sell with either first refusal or buy back clause. 2) Pellistri, Levitt and Laird: loan to Championship. I am tempted to say sell Levitt as well cos he has blown a couple of loan deals but maybe he needs one more shot. 3) Garner: loan to mid-level attack minded EPL team. We could loan to Brighton and buy Bissouma for instance. 4) Ethan Galbraith: loan to Championship. He is 20 and has played 2 full seasons of Under-23 already. Any 20yr old still playing Under-23 really has no shot at making it here. 5) Hugill: Yes. Continue Under-23. He will be joined this season by McNeill. May the better man win. 6) Mengi: Another Championship loan or a mid-level EPL loan. We recalled Tuanzebe too early and that is what stalled his career. 7) Elanga, Mejbri, Amad first team until January and possible loan for the 2nd half of the season depending on performance. Shoretire: Keep him in Under-23 and let him play with his age mates for once. He is just 17. This triple promotion he has been getting is not really good for him IMO. |

handelex: Didn't you hear what he said.... "Honesty is not the best Policy" 
That's the summary of his defense. The guy go dey vex like Buhari whenever Fred gets criticised meanwhile he agrees with people like panther7 on about 80% of their points.  |

patrickmuf: Chong should go get a haircut make him dey see well...  I am telling you. That hair dey slow am down. He will be sold this off season unless an Odumeje level miracle happens. As a youth player in a team like ours the window of opportunity is usually 2 years or max 3 yrs. That window is even shorter right now with the quality attacking players being bought and also those coming up behind him from the youth teams. |

eph12: 1. Fred is never a CDM. He wasn't yesterday, he's not today, he won't be tomorrow.
2. He needs to be calmer on the ball. His inconsistent first touch is because he wants to get the ball moving.
3. This is the most obvious for me. He more than makes up for it if we're being honest. I understand honesty is not the best policy here 
4. Well shooting is not even a virtue anymore. Let's work the ball into the box sir So for No1 you agree his performances for United at CDM (which is where he plays almost all the time) have not been good. For No2 you agree his first touch is poor and you agree he has to improve but you have an excuse for him that it is because he wants to move the ball forward. For No3 you also agree that it is true he gets dribbled too easily but you have another excuse that “he more than makes up for it”. How he more than makes up for it you haven’t told us. For No4 you also agree that his shooting is poor but this time you have prepared another factory-fitted excuse which is that shooting is not a virtue.  If shooting well is not a virtue is it shooting over the bar that is now a virtue? In summary you agree that he is crap as a CDM (no1). You agree his first touch is poor (No2). You agree that he gets dribbled easily (No3). You agree he can’t shoot (No4). If you agree with us on almost all the points made why do you seem so embittered when someone criticises Fred here?  |

eph12: See my response here.
I'll be back when panther7 does some soul searching and rewrite his list. Forget panther7. Here is my list. Let’s tackle it point by point 1) Difficulty receiving the ball on the half turn from CBs especially under pressure (key requirement of a CDM). 2) Inconsistent first touch 3) Rushing into challenges and gets dribbled past a bit too easily at times 4) Poor shooting ability. |

BlueRayDick: The answer to the bold is quite simple! Since he started his agitation I have read just about twice siege was laid on him and the reasonable reasons why he wasn't eventually arrested both times was easy for all to see.
The first time he sige was laid on him was when he was enroute from one one of his rallies that had him in company of several of his followers with most of them bearing arms and having the advantage of numbers. An attempt to enforce the arrest at that time wouldv'e led to massive loss of lives on both sides and even passersby on the express.
The second time was shortly after the fulani attacks in Igangan when sunday was prepping to enter the forest. They prevented him from going into the forest . If they had also attempted to arrest him at this point when the whole atmosphere was tensed and everyone in south west was bitterly lamenting the loss of life, it would've led to something serious than we can all imagine .
So u see there was really nothing magical about he not being arrested these few times that I read about.
But u see, the time that matters most for him to show the potency of the juju was dead in the night when he could've done what he pleases with them and the DSS would've been too ashamed to acknowledge the mission ever happened ,.....Guess what ? He was chased out of his house, his juju attires were taken to DSS museum and even his travel documents seized. The guy ran away in boxers leaving all the airheads in his house to suffer. I am not surprised sha. Only airheads can believe in that man’s jazz. |

BlueRayDick: Ẹ̀gbọ́n what are u saying báyìí?
Here is a rare video of Sunday Igboho óòsha saying it with his full chest that if 1000 police officers come for him even at night, that hardly will 100 of them return home.
https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ6Gb3_p8eT/?utm_medium=copy_link
Guess what happened last week at his residence?
Sunday did not only run for his dear life, but also left the few sulele, sege and others to accompany DSS back back to Abuja safely  There are many airheads in Igboho’s group. Committee of believing mumus. |

Let panther7 inform the house that he was terribly wrong there by himself, then we will discuss the next point Oh ho. So you know it should be tackled point by point na him you skip the first 4 points?  Why did you skip his first 4 points to go and attack his 5th point? If you truly want to tackle it point by point and are not here to do wayo then tackle the first point, then the next point until we get to the 5th point I.e passing ability.  |

eph12: That alone is enough to cancel every other thing. If he agrees that he made a mistake there, we can move on to the next point Ok he made a mistake. Next point. Poor first touch. But wait o. If you are a teacher and your student gets one answer wrong out of 6, you will fail him?  |

adisaaowala: I still think we need a CF capable of scoring atleast 15 goals/season to bolster our ranks - Cavani's Fitness cannot be guaranteed and the less said about Martial, the better.
As for Rashford, he doesnt seem cut out for that role. We have 3 strikers in Cavani, Martial, Greenwood. There is no need for a 4th. If the team plays well and we get goal contributions from all the logical areas we don't need another 15 goal striker. If we check the recent league winners none has had a squad of CFs as good as we have now. |

If we can keep Pogba we have to keep him. The team is gradually getting to the point whereby a talent like Pogba will thrive.
Improving the team only to sell our best player is counterproductive. Get Varane, Sancho, a quality CDM and keep Pogba. That should be the plan. |

Oasis007: How old is Maguire please?! DFs do peak at 27yrs and do last till 36yrs. If we sign Varane, he's likely to guarantee us solid performance for 5yrs.
DVB is a Midfielder and he's 24yrs already. If he can't command first team football at 24yrs, at what Age is he gonna get the Opportunity?! Varane is definitely not aging at 28. Maybe people think he is old because he has been playing at the top for a long time. He possibly still has 6 or more years left in him. The clincher is the price. Getting a player of his quality at £40-45m is a good deal. |

paafin: We need a Matic- style DM, not Camavinga  Camavinga is also an 8 (CM) but at 18yrs of age maybe there is still hope to reinvent him as a 6. Very highly rated but if we have Mejbri coming through as an 8 as well i am not sure we should be focusing on Camavinga when what we need is a CDM. If we are buying a quality CDM as well as Camavinga that is fine but we should not buy Camavinga as the CDM. That would leave Pogba, VDB, Fred, McTom, Camavinga, Mejbri who are all 8s and old man Matic as the only 6. P.S Just checked transfermarkt. It appears Camavinga also plays CDM quite often although he has appeared more as a CM. |

eph12: Poor passing ability for someone that has one of the best passing stats in the team? It's either the whole team get poor passing ability or you don't know anything about football. Which one is it? See as you rush latch unto one point and leave the other myriad points.  What about the following? Poor first touch Rushing into tackles and getting dribbled easily Poor shooting ability INABILITY TO RECEIVE THE BALL UNDER PRESSURE FROM THE CBs (cardinal quality of a CDM) Fred has never been a 6 and does not play as a 6 for Brazil. He is at his best as an 8 however we have Pogba who is a far better 8 than him, hence Fred should be a squad player for us NOT a starter. That is the koko. |
