Mrviktor:
We can't overload that position without selling.
James garner.
Pereira
Lingard
Mactominay
Mata
Fred.
Vdb

Dey fight for midfield slot.

Unless we sell, it's gonna be impossible to convince a top player.. Nd still keep a happy squad

Agreed!

afrodoc2:
As old as Matic is he is only person that can play solo DM on that team.

McTominay’s passing is too limited and Fred struggles with positioning and physicality.

The long term replacement for Matic is not yet in the team.

Yes I agree also. Matic when fresh does his job fairly well.

But when he gets tired or when we are long gone into the season he starts to lose it, except if he has gone for a long injury and comes back fresh again.

Mrviktor:
Matic is old na.

Pogba isn't just match fit

Then you are agreeing with me that we need to address the DM position like I said in my initial post.

Having an old Matic there won't help us. Mc tom and Fred are fair as subs.

Mrviktor:
Lol but Matic is a better DM than both of them.
He just doesn't have pace to run things for 90 minutes.. And isn't the most vocal.

If Pogba decides to play holding midfield with Matic it's going to be amazing. Pogba is very vocal on d pitch..

But u know Pogba na. Like forming chairman on d ball.

Footballer that cannot run things or run for 90mins, is that one a footballer?

Footballer that is forming chairman on the pitch, is that one also a footballer?

DeadPresidents:
Because this is Edward Gareth Woodward we are talking about.

His finesse at feckin sh-t up is unrivalled. Before you know it, PSG will be unveiling Alex Telles while we are waiting for a free transfer that will never happen.

That's the point I am making.

Why does it always have to be Ed's fault.

If he buys the guy for an outrageous amount peeps here will complain. The guy is supposedly trying to negotiate to get a favourable fee we are now saying he will fvck shit up.

I am not asking he waits for a free transfer, but his do you know that won't happen?

Damn if he does, damn if he doesn't....

You never price market ridiculously before?

eph12:
I find it hard to believe some of these news I'm seeing honestly. How can a sane human being be pricing Telles for less than 20m?

Haa Na wa o. Forget the news jare, they must sell paper. When Ed was overpaying for players and giving them humongous salaries we complained.

Now the guy is being shrewd, we wan complain again.

What is wrong in Ed getting that guy for free sef?

Their best season was last season with Rashford as LWF and Martial as CF. Why do you want it changed?

We have tried Martial on the left and Rashford as a CF before with JM. It does not work long term.

Rashford is worse at finishing than Martial and his linkup play is doubly worse. 2 key qualities for a CF.

Martial on the other hand, maybe because of his mentality (i don't know for sure) can go 3,4,5 games consecutively being isolated and invisible on the left wing. As a CF this does not happen often as he is the focal point of the attack.

Lastly we should stop confusing these boys. Switching their position every season can't be good for their development. Their best season together was last season in which Rashford was LWF and Martial was CF so we should allow them build upon that rather than dismantling it for no reason.

We didn't allow them build when Rashford came into the scene during Lvgs days and switched him to the wings. If he had been left there maybe he would have improved and be better.

Same with Martial switching him from the left to Striker.

Jose Mourinhos tactics didn't help anybody especially the strikers who would go isolated in games because of his defensive masterclass tactiks.

IMO I feel Rashford would be a better striker if allowed to do that job.

Yes they did well last season but I just feel we would have gotten more out of them in reverse positions.

Martial in full flight on the left wing caused quite a lot of problems for opponents.

Wetin dey the border?

What economic importance does building the railway to the border with Niger bring?

Railway yo ends of the earth.

Greenwood won't be rooted to the bench. There are enough minutes in the season for 4 of them to rotate the 3 positions between them. Having those 4 mean we would hardly need to see James or Ighalo play.

It is only at United i see fans rejecting talented players because fear of competition. It pays us as fans to have talented options rather the current drop off between our 1st choice forwards and the bench.

Lastly, and i think i have said this before: If Sancho comes the person whose place might be at risk could be Rashford (with Sancho playing LWF) or later on down the line Martial (with Greenwood playing CF).

If Ole had a brain IMO, Rashford and Greenwood should be our strikers.

Sancho on the right and martial on the left. They would also need to have quality backup not in the mould of James.

Let VDB, Pogba, Bruno, Also rotate the 2 positions in the CM position and then we address that DM position .

Mctom can be a backup to a more traditional DM. Fred and Matic case is spiritual.

Oasis007:


It's Match Day against another almighty Club in Luton. Gone are the Days we're so sure of Victory against any Club.

Chaiii that would be a really tough match for us.

Oasis007:
Lindelöf should never start for United again. As in NEVER! Must we keep Jones at all costs? If he can't be sold, then he should be released. What's the Essence of keeping him at Club only to be receiving Freebies on weekly Basis?!

Smalling won't be worse than Lindelöf, so I suggest we keep him and get rid of Jones and Rojo rather. If Bailly and Tunazebe wanna join Jones on the Sideline, release the Fûckers!

Give Mengi a Chance to prove himself. De Ligt was Captain of Ajax at what Age?! I swear Mengi is better than that boneless Chicken called Lindelöf.

Ye so Rojo still dey this club.

I don forget say we get player wey dem dey call ROJO.

elrony:
Day 1976 still no signings


Less than 2 weeks to the end of transfer window.

Na who we go blame here now.

Shey na Ole no get list or na Ed Woodward no sabi negotiate.

kokaneprodigy:
Sheybi u guys don’t want to have sense, we told u guys then u said u want to piss on faces all over Europe. If any club breaks transfer record u must copy but buy rubbish at overpriced rate. Thinking the fee automatically translates to 3 points/game.

A midfield of Xhaka and Ceb with Luiz in defence will be winning City and Liverpool. While a midfield with Pogback, Fernadez, Slab head at CB, 3 players worth almost £250M combined can’t get a draw against Palace at Old-Trafford.
Tueh!!!

And where di d that your useless midfield leave your useless club at the end of the season.

Even with the nonsense performance we display we still finish above the arseanal and you are coming here to expose you and clubs uselessness.

Abeg shift....

Botfuss:
Oasis don vex oo. Shey we go continue dey get pictures like this?

Make him no vez go break camera ooo

Oasis007:


Coz it's a SIMPle Choice.

Hehehe.....

afrodoc2:
You see as i catch the guy for bad place?

Larride wan use APC debating skill to obfuscate the conversation.
No! We won't take it.

I don talk my own.

All of us are guilty.



I knew how happy I was when Mourunho took over. Even though I hated his attitude.

Las las I been dey pray say I go just see am dey waka beside me for ojuelegba, I been don prepare bottle and plank wey I wan use greet am after he started displaying those discombobulated defensive master classes that I didn't know whether to be happy with or sad. Because we would win and we go still fight on this thread.
If we lose blood go dey flow while those useless shekpeterites go dey blast gbedu for hia.

Oasis007:


Na Laycon I dey stan for now, no be OGS

why you no stan Ozwor.

larride:
I have been consistent in the way I analyze this team during and after Mou exit.

I have always maintained that we needed better players than we had, there are a lot of things you can blame the manager for but you cannot blame the manager for the inability of a player to pass the ball successfully or any of the mundane argument then.

What I’m pointing out is the double standard, if it’s Mou fault then, why is it not Ole fault now?

And if you dig well, you will see I started questioning Ole tactics few months after I made that post.

Na shalaye be this oooo

chidexxy007:
E.K Gwuru

Meanwhile there has been managerial casualties across Europe nd no time did Poch get a look in. I wonder why.

Dayo is here campaigning for him meanwhile when Bayern needed to replace Kovac, they opted for an unproven Flick instead.

This life, like they say, No balance.

chidexxy007:
So na Angels dey play for Poch then na

And dem still sack am.

larride:
I say make I agend some agenda ni.

All of us are guilty at one point or the other, but I don laff taya.

Expert17:
He relegated Cardiff from EPL to Championship.....

He was to about to relegate them from Championship to League 1.

And then we hired him....

larride:
To put this in proper context, we just finished 2nd and our highest point haul post Fergie but but bleeding stock.

Someone that bought headless chicken James, you want the board to give him 108m to sign Sancho or someone that bought fridge for 80m.

Guy wetin happen na.

You wan make person enter express.

Joezinho:
If jose is a foo.L, I wonder what ole is..

Let him go back to PDP and try again.

Shame has got nothing on him.

Slynation:
He focused too much on book instead of balancing equation between book and women affairs....

I have a friend who is on this same WhatsApp group, In school then, we used to tell him "Oboy follow women small naw" he said NO, he wants to read book 24/7, well he graduated with first class tho, but now to get common ordinary girlfriend wey full Nigeria na problem baba cannot even approach a lady, all the ladies I connected him to are saying he has no content.... It's really frustrating shaah, I'm very sure so many guys on this thread are in this category right now but yet insulting and calling Ozo a simp....

The originator of this quote "All works and no play makes jack a dull boy" saw things before saying that.....

Ozo went through school but did not allow the sch to go through him.

No be only book dem dey learn for school oooo

ItsCookie:
Who is Erica again? Oh! the disqualified? You are a fan? No wonder, please fire away!

I was also a fan of Ozo.

Erica, Nengi and Ozo in that order.

Ozo completely lost it in my opinion.

Imaging the simp still telling HMS that are still competing with Nengi for the 85M that he had forgotten about because of her ass to take care of her as if they were in a serious relationship.

I wish Kidd was still in that house with Nengi.

ItsCookie:
C'mon now, he is gone from the show. I don't think he hurt you in any way. He has been trolled and called all sorts of name for the way he chose to express his emotions. Now he is no more on your screen, won't you give the name calling a rest already?

Did you say this about Erica.

Get your hypocritical talk off my mentions abeg.

Hazardfan1:
I wish Kiddwaya is still in the house with Nengi, Ozo fit no gree to go ooo.

He won't na. He will be begging biggie that he doesn't want to go.

The modafucker will be watching Nengi now on tv crying like the simpnhe is.

Nengi is now a free bird.

No simping Ozo lurking abi stalking around her ass. The ass is free to strut around the house.

heartofcity12:
Ozo just finished himself

Foolish man

FrankGiel:
Dorathy is safe!!!!! Woza!!!!!

Who are the explorers?

They have explored far and hard yo get silent people to vote for that babe.

Imagine Ozo still telling people that are competing with Nengi for the 85M to take care of her.

The guy had lost focus, he is more upset he is leaving Nengi in that house than that he has lost the chance to win 85M.

carammel:
Lol, Ozo is evicted and Nengi is all he is shouting.

Y'all take care of Nengi, I love you Nengi

Na wa for that guy sha
