ChristoBam: Di Maria, Pogba, Bailly, Deepay, Martial, Lukaku and mkhitaryan all looked like great signings initially. Exactly. We are always singing buy players, sack coach. Same approach every time. Our trophies are now then number of coaches and players transfered to the club. And we are not really patient to get quality players. Pressure on ED like he had not done much already. |

GloryIsaac: Well, it's true that a lot of transfers have been made since Fergie left, but for the first time in a long time, all three transfers made have shown good quality and are also disciplined, hopefully, they don't get corrupted by the beans gang. After 3 matches? |

GloryIsaac: Which other cohesion?
Or Rashford and Pogba need team cohesion to score penalties?
Or cohesion to take matches serious and quit the bloated ego?
Transfers will do a lot. Transfer talk bore me because since 2014, no improvement despite all the players brought it. January is not even a time to get quality players. |

nitrogen: Don't mind them o. Buy buy buy everytime. Offload, like say Naso e easy.
Same players finished with 81 points two seasons ago, Ole used same players to win consecutive games, but today they are shyte.
Fact is, we need a new manager, one that can get the best out of the players we have. Of course, he is allowed to sign a couple of players. But, trust me, this team can make top 4 easily. Today, from the whole starting eleven that finished 81 points two seasons ago, only DeGea people said is good to be retained. Fans and press have finished Man United. |

The defence of Valencia, Smalling, Jones, Young conceded only 28 goals in a full season.
The next season they are all old men and over hyped English defenders. ok na |

CrystalTiger: Before season started, I said it here that with Ole and this squad, we'd be lucky to finish 10th..Anyone who sits in front of a television to watch games wouldn't dare argue this..
Our play is just fvcking counter attack..No plan b, c or d..At least we're spared another week of hurt..Back at it again against Leicester..
Cheers Mates..A long season ahead..!!! Mourinho finished second with 81 points +40 goal using the below players as most used 11
DeGea Valencia Smalling Jones Young Pogba Matic Mata Lingard Rashford Lukaku
They said the players are dead and the coach is finished. ok na |

CapitalCee: God bless you. Offload 80% of our players, people are laughing at me, look at it now How is this the solution? Was it not same players Ole went on a wining streak when he just arrived? It can now be said that we should have allowed Mourinho to spend the money. |

BARAJ92: The sale of Smalling is as bad as the sale of Fletcher who can easily be used as back up.
Throughout the transfer window, I did not lament but during our first match , it was so obvious that will could not string passes together or even penetrate the opposition apart from counter.
We badly need Midfield players and sales of injury prone players like Rojo, Jones and Baily not sale of ever reliable Smalling Just before your post, it was said Smalling is leaving because he was not guaranteed regular football. So I guess Jones, Bailly and Rojo agreed to be back up just like Fletcher, Oshea and Evans. Even at some point, Giggs was a back up player. |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 12:38pm On Aug 31, 2019 |
BARAJ92: clearing deadwood without replacement is almost the same as trouble. Nothing is bad having Tuanzebe and smalling as replacement for our constant two central back. During Ferguson, we have over six central back, Vidic and Ferdinand were the mainstays while Evans O'Shea, Smalling and Jones were backup players Even with these players, there was still a time in injury forced SAF to use Carrick in CD |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 12:29pm On Aug 31, 2019 |
weedtaker: Smalling is our best CB defensive wise.
Lindelof is shit, I hope tuanzebe turns out to be a good defender. Smalling is more rugged. Lindelof better on use of ball. Tuanzebe. I dey look with one eye. We always believe those who don't play are better. Like when the Ivorian was on the bench. |

nitrogen: I am tired o, buy buy buy.....I still believe that the current set of players should easily make top 4 with the right style, level of motivation etc. The manager needs to get his acts right.
OGS looks so bereft of ideas. If he can talk to Martial and Pogba to play quick with the team. Get the forward players to understand one another quickly. Raise the tempo of our game. |

eph12: It was obvious from last season that this team was one of the laziest. OGS has tried to correct that. He has brought in better defenders. Next up is the midfield and attack. I expect this season to be a season of many fixes. It is not buy buy that fixes a team. |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 12:15pm On Aug 25, 2019 |
It is possible that with time the team will begin to play well. The new players need to blend with the rest, then Pogba and Martial should be more business like. We need to raise the tempo. Our game is too slow.
Our right back goes to the right 90% of the time. Even when there is clear space to drive inward towards the box, he has a natural tendency to go to the touchline. Things like this need to be understood by other attacking players. |

I am sure Maguire was not expecting Lindelof to lose that duel, otherwise he would have adjusted quickly to cover him. |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:50am On Aug 25, 2019 |
At the end of the day, it was Lindelof who made us to lose the match. He lost a due that even an Okomu oil defender will not lose. Before then it was a matter of time before the defence of Palace collapse. We only saw DDG once when Lindelof made a back pass to him.
How no defender was sweeping behind the other as we held possession, baffles me.
Smalling would never have lost that due. Lindelof needs to be roughed a bit.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 5:36pm On Aug 24, 2019 |
Our major problems are Martial and Pogba who allowed their skills to make them feel complacent and sleep on the ball.
They tend to try one or two things in tight places instead of being purposeful. Martial is worse because he plays in a tight area, yet would prefer to play for himself first instead of his team. It was only in the late minutes he started playing quick with his mates.
Lingard cannot trap. Rashford doesn't have sense.

Lukaku, Pogba and Sanchez could not endure what only Rooney endured for four years 
From 2013/14 to when Rooney left, Manchester United fans "Rooney holding back Mata, Lingard, Kagawa, Mkhitaryan, Martial, Falcao, Perreira, etc" "let Rooney leave and watch how this team begins to play a free flow attacking football "
And the press too made money off it.

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 |
