No need to wonder. We are playing rubbish.

Expert17:
I was disappointed that we couldn't defend with 10 men for just 5 mins,...

Exactly. This team is still fragile mentally. It’s like sometimes they expect bad things to happen to them and they start to panic a bit.

That Southampton game was an epic choke job by most of them and Oga Paulo was probably the biggest culprit.

Shaw, Martial, Rashford were the only guys to play their normal game.

ChristineC:
so everyone here have stylishly dodged discussing possible line up for the game against Chelsea after taking shots at mine

Sorry sister that your lineup scatter my dada.
After seeing it I couldn’t think of a lineup again.

eph12:
Doesn't this show that we criticize too early? The other day it was that Rashford should learn from Greenwood. I won't say more than this

Rashford has to learn how to be a good finisher from Greenwood. That is a fact whether you like it or not.

OGS the coach who is with them everyday that as far back as last year said Greenwood is the best finisher in the club is not a fool.

Foden who trains with Aguero and KDB everyday who said Greenwood is the best finisher he has played with is not mad.

eph12:
Maguire is fond of pushing the ball forward. This is not being slow, this is pushing everyone forward, covering more spaces. I watched last match trying to understand what you people are talking about, I just couldn't see it. Na wa

The ball travels faster than Usain Bolt not to talk of a slow poison like Maguire.
He slows our game down by doing it almost every time he has the ball.
Lindelof does a far better job of finding his RB and RW with crisp passes.

Oasis007:
To some extent, DDG let us down this Season, but he's still better than Henderson to be fair. I've seen Goals conceded by Henderson, and frankly speaking - he's not ready to man Posts for United, even next Season.

Romero is good, because he has little or no Pressure to deliver week in week out like DDG. He's only called to service in the Cup Competitions, not UCL.

I remember during Mou's Era, he's not even trusted to man Posts in the Finals. We are simply Observers via TV. We judge, react based on what we're seeing on TV or read Online. These Lads are much more better known by the Handlers.

DDG has served under many Managers at United, yet he's never being replaced, bar Injury or Cup Competitions. It's apparent he's ahead of others by miles, but that won't stop us from calling him if he lets us down.

Henderson seems in a Rush, he needs to calm down like Pogba and learns to be more composed, more confident, more commanding at Shelfield. I'll rather advise his Loan is renewed for more first Team Experience.

I would extend the loan for 1 more season and recall him in 2021 to challenge DDG for the top spot.

Oasis007:
Sorry Doc, let's be honest here Expert17 has an Agenda against DDG. This same Dude believes Romero and Henderson are better than DDG and should take charge.

There is nothing constructive in his Criticism of DDG, rather reflection of emotive Bias. DDG dropped Forms. He was called out by almost Everyone but fairly.

No one is shielding DDG from Criticisms. Martial FC ain't shielding their favorite from Criticisms as well. I guess few Weeks ago, Lana tore his Martial FC Membership Card on this Thread.

Patrickmuf and Gloryisaac, two known Martial FC Conveners have never shielded him from Criticisms like Expert17 is doing for Bruno.

Let's be factual here Doc. Expert17 has pure Agenda towards DDG, perhaps because he's a retired GK.

Well i will leave Expert17 to speak for himself, but even i was getting tired of DDG allowing cheap goals to be scored against him week in week out, i don’t have an agenda against DDG.

There are other Man Utd fan sites were calls have been made for Henderson to be recalled to replace DDG. Making such a call does not have to be agenda driven.

A steady keeper is better than one that makes great saves and allows cheap goals.

I try not to harbour any agenda against any United player. Any United player who proves me wrong by improving and becoming a good/great player and helping the team win titles only brings joy to me.

The joy Man Utd’s victories give me is greater than any smugness or pride i can get by being right that a player is not good enough.

Expert17:
@ bolded.......very true.

I'm just trying to prove some points to those guys that attacked me when I was complaining abt our GK.

GGMU

My personal opinion is that they were wrong for attacking you on DDG. But in the same vein you are wrong to attack them on Bruno.

I would have to admit however that your DDG criticism was eminently more justified than the Bruno criticism.
David was dropping disaster class after disaster class and they were defending him because of what he had done in the past! What a penkelemes.

The overarching idea though is that no United player is above constructive criticism. We have won nothing yet for us to be having sacred cows.

We should learn to distinguish agenda from fair analysis.

Expert17:
The same people who attack me when I demand more from an under performing Goal keeper shouldn't ask for more from the best player in EPL since January....

If you don't get my point.....don't just badge in

This is an open forum and this particular debate has been a general one. Nothing like badging in or out.

Also since I have not attacked you for demanding more from DDG i wonder how that point concerns me.

I demand more from every single player and staff of Manchester United. That is the United way.

Right from the player miss roads even up to the generational talents like Pogba, Martial, Greenwood.
There is LOTS of room for improvement.

Bruno has had a great half season but he has not won titles for us yet.

It is only by demanding more and by constructive criticism that we can start winning titles again.

It is teams like Spurs that deify players who have won nothing for them because of 6 months of good football.

raumdeuter:
29 goals plus assists with that useless attack is exceptional.
Why just Ramos and Cortouis? Why not Varane, Mendy and Carvajal

Basically like afrodoc said 5 people contributed to Madrids defence, ONLY Benzema did the attack by himself

Read this below and see what Benzema did



Benzema 21 goals the other 11 attackers 17 goals Two of these attackers were 100M buys

It’s a phucking disgrace. Please who were the 2 100m buys? I am asking for hensbrain.

When people are comparing the exploits of 5 people i.e the Madrid defence to the exploits of 1 person i.e Benzema then you already know the answer to the question.

You can’t say you are making a fair comparison when you have to do Courtois+Ramos+Varane+LB+RB in order to rubbish Benzema.

Benzema was the single most important individual player responsible for the league title.
The Madrid defence is not a player.

Expert17:
Let's use the same energy to demand more from De Gea, Martial and Lindelof.

You just like argument for the sake of it.

There are dozens of posts here demanding more from De Gea, Martial, Lindelof, Maguire, Pogba , Rashford etc.

Bruno is not the greatest attacking midfielder who ever lived so there is nothing wrong if fans want him to play even better.

Asking for more from a player is not an attack on the player. We all like and appreciate Bruno but believe in him to even do more.

If Bruno, Martial, Pogba, Rashford, Greenwood improve is it not the club and fans that would benefit from it?

Abi what is your problem gan-gan?

Expert17:
The 2 goals we scored was also product of his style of playing the ball without the fear of losing it.

Make una allow the guy rest.

I like him a lot and really don’t understand why they didn’t sign him at the start of the season, however he is not the finished product yet.

His quick forward passing is great and has led to many goals but he can improve on his timing and accuracy.

What we want is a player who comes in and plays well immediately like he has done but also continues to improve.

If he is a bit more accurate and careful with the ball and improves his set piece delivery the team will be better for it and the fans will be happier still.

Nezzjnr:
You were consoling yourself with the Under 18 game

Been a while I heard from the Females team

There were not doing badly for a newly promoted side. I believe they were 4th at the time the league was suspended.

Reece James’s 18yr old sister is their most talented player.

Sniper4real:
TV stations show their matches?

MUTV

A40:
Let him go to Madrid, let him join an attacking team they said. Mumus didn't know Hazard was a big fish in small pond player. The hype job was exposed in Spain this year the league of so-called farmer defenders

So sad but true. It’s a phucking disgrace.

[quote author=homesteady post=91800061]Just watch this video and see the baby elephant called Hazard. How will a professional footballer be this fat?

I’m crying look at Gareth Bale😭😭 pic.twitter.com/pPuJOmNVP7

— 📦james (@Lfcwrighty) July 16, 2020

as the guy fall yakata like Zulezoo.

But shey this Gareth Bale no be antisocial person like this?

Nezzjnr:
How do you keep up with these guys

I watch every single under 18 and reserve match( or at least highlights).

If a player catches my eye i find out more about him.

It was easy to do while JM was serving dreary football at Old Trafford.

Expert17:
What about the 2nd goal

E be like say the guy has an agenda.

He didn’t praise Rashford for dribbling 2-3 players and laying off the assist for Martial’s goal but he is praising Martial for his minimal contribution to Rashford’s goal.

Patrickmuf confess, how much did you pay this guy?

engrelvis:
DAT aggression n sitting down of 2 defenders won't v been easy if nt for Martial jump over dummy.those defenders will easily v close in on Rashford. Martial was d their distraction.But still I respect him( Rashford) for his calmness

What is your point?
Are you saying that Martial deserves more credit than Rashford for that goal?
Cos that is what it sounds like.

Nezzjnr:
There's another guy called Zidane in the team

Skinny no10. He was injured a lot this past season and is behind Mejbri in development.

Mejbri is starting some Reserve team games while Zidane Iqbal is still really an under 18 rotation player.

[quote author=Nezzjnr post=91798465][/quote]Lol. E no shock you?

Nezzjnr:
Have you watched this Mejbri dude

Yeah but like only half a season. He has the potential to make it here no doubt. However he needs luck and the right attitude to fulfill his potential.

Exactly how good he will be is to be determined.
He is the obvious special talent in the youth set up now though.

The attempts of Hazardistas to defend 1 goal and 3 assists is comical.

Very wicked fat boy. See as he phucked all his fans here up. Nkwobi addict.

engrelvis:
Everybody is praising Rashford for DAT first goal.No doubt it was a beautiful goal but it was d jump over by martial dat confuse crystal palace defenders.

So you want to give more praise to Martial for jumping over than for Rashford who entered the area with aggression and sat down 2 defenders AND the keeper before slotting home?

What a penkelemes.

Nezzjnr:
Tom regular game play was the reason... The pressure on him wasn't that much

During that Time Fred wasn't playing well... Mou had no option than to use him

Tom was defensive too

McTominay was an attacker until 14, then he was shuffled back and forth between AM and CM until 18 when he was moved to attack again when the club lost 4 youth strikers at the same time.
In between all that he lost almost 2 years cumulatively to injuries as he adjusted to growing from 5ft 4 to 6ft 4 in less than 2 years.

pkasso:
So apparently most of y'all have pronouncing Bruno Fernandes' name the wrong way. I just found out it's actually pronounced 'Fernandsh'. This stems from the fact that the name is Portuguese rather than Spanish.

So next time, show off and impress someone by pronouncing it the right way

When did Nairaland develop audio call section?
