KingAlabi:
Attacking wise yeah he is shiit

But not defensive wise(he has some flaws atimes though)

Even defence wise he was rubbish today

adisaaowala:

His goal doesn't still mean he is not shit

nitrogen:
James nko?

Lol. James was meant to be a back up at 15m euros. AWB is not Man United bench material let alone a first XI

AWB has to be the worst signing Ole has made so far.

Pickford na ode I swear. Nearly cost Everton the game

Expert17:


Martial is not a CF.

I know but our Norwegian ladan bosso is seeing him as Van Nistelrooy and Cantona rolled into one

odizeey:
All these unlocking talks no dey enter my ear.

Not like we were doing things and he was missing.

Na man United fans feel say we buy Ronaldo quality.

Yes. He's been inconsistent. Same as all other players we have. Even De Gea our saviour at the back turn flop.

Pogba don ball for this team. He can do much more but we shouldn't act like he has not tried at all.
Pogba ain't no flop.

Except he turn it around in the remaining 2 years of his contract. For me I regard him a flop, and do do many

Shey Martial de see Calvert-lewin im mate abi. After we go hype am full everywhere.

Newcastle Vs Man United: Pogba not happy with Solskajaer's tactics, Demands to take over Fernandes' position




Manchester United midfielder, Paul Pogba, is unhappy with Ole Gunnar Solksjaer playing him in a withdrawn role, the UK Independent reports.

It is believed there is a degree of friction brewing over United’s midfield set up, with Pogba particularly at odds with the role he has been given.

The arrival of Bruno Fernandes from Sporting Lisbon in January saw Pogba pushed back into a deeper role, most often alongside Matic, with the Portuguese given all the freedom to get forward that was previously bestowed on the Frenchman.

While the new-look midfield worked well in the beginning, their more recent struggles have exposed some issues.

Pogba is said to, “hate” playing in the more withdrawn role and feels he should be the player given the more advanced position currently occupied by Fernandes.

In order to get a better balance in the squad, Solskjaer is understood to be seriously considering dropping one of the pair, so he can play a more disciplined and combative sitting duo behind his advanced midfielder.

Donny van de Beek could come into the midfield pivot, though he mainly played an attacking, box-to-box role for Ajax – with Solskjaer believing his best quality is his nose for goal – which is similar to the role both Pogba and Fernandes want to play.

How can one club have 4 injury prone central defenders? If Tuanzebe has injury problems this season the club should just offload him as well along with Rojo, Jones, Bailly.

Those 4 are just collecting salary with little contribution to the cause. Meanwhile whoever sanctioned that 5yr improved contract for Phil Jones should have a broomstick broken in his penis.

It was four year with 1year option of extension. Still its still a horrible deal

Nothing irks me more than seeing the clubs official Twitter handle celebrate Ronaldo whenever he a break a record. The same Ronaldo that scored against us and celebrated like the club meant nothing to him...

Ronaldo has forgotten everything about man United. He is a madrid legend simple

Oasis007:


Not interested in the Discourse, but I share the Sentiment of CR7 ain't Unted Legend Geng.

You can do whatever you like, but legendary status can be eroded and tainted. Ronaldo has recently irked United fans, and his performance at Madrid has reduced his status at United. Paul Ince for instance did what legends do at United but he is not a legend at United. You cannot compare Ronaldo with the likes of Rooney, Giggs, Scholes, Charlton, Keane etc. Ronaldo is a more of a Madrid legend. For me once your name doesn't embody a particular club, your legendary status is watery.

spillo1:
LMFAO.........Van persie attained nothing of such nature. This place is getting ridiculous daily.

Van persie is not regarded at Old Trafford? No wahala sir

melodyogonna:
Many factors come into play when someone is considered a legend. Titles won, loyalty, longevity, goals, fans acceptance, assists etc.

It's almost impossible to have all these unless you're Messi so some can be excused, especially if you're a fan favourite.

Robin Van Persie fall in here

Leyqute:
Had CR7 stayed 3-5 more years at OT he’d be a top top legend for Man Utd.

He was one of the best players to don the United jersey, no doubt, but is he a red devil through and through like em Giggs and Best?

Why isn’t Sherigham regarded as much a legend as Ole?

Why are Carrick, Scholes, Giggs deemed legends? Why is Gary Neville regarded as a United legend and Phil Neville an ex-man Utd player?

Longevity. (Longevity =/= number of games FYI).
Exploits.
Dedication.

It’s a mix of these, in no specific order or magnitude

Like I said before. Even RVP position in United folklore is great. He is so so much loved by fans. He will receive a standing ovation whenever he is mentioned

Joezinho:
Yeah. He won it thrice with man utd . 2001/2002 and 2002/2003 season. Won it back to back.

Then in 2004/2005

You the remember something lol. I used to use this to brag fro for my arsenal friend that time.

" 3 Time Uefa champions league to scorer" that was then when we had a striker that was actually scoring

Expert17:
Van Nistelrooy like goals die

150 goals in 219 games

Ruud is a goal machine. He made to start supporting Man United in 2001

TrebleChamp:
What!!!!

Yes Ronald's legendary status is debatable

patrickmuf:
Ole is a Manchester United legend...Afrodoc2 is right when he said a combination of his longevity, knack for scoring goals coming from the bench and of course his UCL winning goal together makes him a legend...

Ole as a coach is struggling but as a footballer, he was awesome. Baby-faced assassin for a reason.

Oles legendary status at United is never a thing of question bro

Leyqute:
CR7 is not a Man Utd legend. Wayne Rooney is.

Thats what people fail to understand. Legendary status is not the number of goals or your performance, but Commitment, performance, love for the club and longevity. Sometimes not about longevity though. Van Persie spent just 3 years at United 2 where he is mostly injured. But he attained a very exalted place in United folklore.

engrelvis:
If ole is a legend I wonder what dey will call zidane ,Paolo maldini ,Eric catona,pirlo, CR7 etc,

Ole is more of a United legend that Ronaldo. For me CR7 is not a legend in United. The following names are: Rio, Vidic, Eva, Carrick, Rooney, Keane, Schmeichel, Scholes Gigg, Gary nevile, VDS, DDG, ETC.

nitrogen:
Which kind wahala be this?

I like him, but he is not a legend. What's wrong with my statement na? Someone can be a great player, but not a club's legend, so I know what i am typing now.

Ole is a Manchester United Legend. His legendary status is not just about the 1999 UCL. Let's stop stretching this

timay:
Good luck selling him for 120million next year

Na here we dey na. I de tell them they thought it is an agenda. Look at what Gio Reyna the younger American guy is doing for dortmund this season. He is the next super star. Soon dortmund will need to cash in on Sancho but by then he will have few years on his contract

KingAlabi:
Pellistri is right footed.

Can he do it in the wet windy winter night at Stoke?

elrony:
I just hope fans don't heap expectations on these kids when push comes to shove.

Not just fans. But can they do it in the cold windy winter night at Stoke?

Sniper4real:
and Christiansens' was not

Yes christensen was just for fouling the last man

Sniper4real:
Abeg, why Martial go get 3 match ban and Christiansen no get 3 match when he was red carded

Martial was for Violent conduct

elrony:
Williams will play this season.

Does Ole have the foresight to play Williams there?

KingAlabi:
We needed a first team right winger, which team top 10 team will pellistri start ?

I didn't say he is good but that is the option the board gave us

elrony:
Brandon Williams has a better attacking brain than Wan Peter Parker

I know our PE teacher doesn't have any balls. For the time being. I think I will play Williams ahead of AWB in RB since he is right footed

adisaaowala:
Reduce the volume before you are termed a hater bros

People are creaming about Maguire. But AWB is turning out to be a complete flop. He is not even worth 10m pounds. That's English players for you

elrony:
His sack letter will have a go at him
