Our play is too slow and there is nothing a number 10 can do. The opponent regroups in their own third while we are still making safe and slow passing in midfield. We cannot go anywhere with this kind of style coming from stiff players. The ones that have skills to pass are too slow. Pogba and Mata.

The improvement in defense was so evident with the way players confidently passed the ball back to build up play.

I just didn't like how Luke Shaw took of advantage of it to in reducing his attacking prowess... he passed it back a lot even when there was a possibility of attacking.
One of his shortcomings I spotted last season. His lack of flair with his one foot is a liability to his forward passing and it hinders the team's build up play. If he is blocked from advancing along the line, he is mostly going to reverse or square pass. Evra and Giggs were never like that. Young was never like that. Under Gaal Young became our most unpredictable player going into the final third. He gave some too under Moutinho and necessitated his call up to the Three Lions for world cup.

Shaw also gives the opposing number 7 too much space. When you look at the stats you would say he was not dribbled past, only because he didnt go to tackle his man. But I will still give him benefit of doubt.

What about Israel?
No more appointments in Israel until September ending or October. So the organizer of the Israel group trip has ended it for this year.

Are you suppose to resume this September and have not got visa?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 6:33pm On Aug 11, 2019
Good start.

To me Rashford was our worst player in the first half, except that he scored. Followed by Perreira (never been a fan) and then Pogba.

Very slow football compared to what some other top teams can offer. Let’s see the next few games.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m):
Since April/May:

Sell Young, Rojo, Jones, Smalling, Matic, Lingard, Mata, etc

So who una don buy to prepare for a long season injuries must come. Sometimes all defenders or all midfielders are injured.

Una never understand football.

Without ED, this club would have been worse. All those lamentation since May didn't go well with me

This is not the time we only competed with Madrid and Barcelona in the transfer market.

bad pass from de gea.

de gea is finished. make we just sell am go psg
I dey fear DeGea o for that team.

Sometimes it looks to me he is saving us, some other times it looks like he is the problem of the defence. Look at average keepers in bottom teams, the way they command their boxes, the defenders have less to do.

Good thing you said you didn't watch the matches. AFCON is more your speed.
I no longer rate preseason

Van Gaal won Pre-season trophies only to start struggling in the league.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 4:11am On Jul 27, 2019
I didn’t watch any of our matches. I watched Afcon in Egypt.

From comments here.....

Make we dey watch the young lads una dey praise like this. Iheanacho was City best player in pre-season. Under Moyes, Lingard was our best outclassing RVP and Welbeck in attack.

So I dey watch

With what Henderson has been doing in the English team and Liverpool he is not suppose to be called average at all.

He has done for England what Gerald, Lampard and Scholes could not do. He outclassed Barcelona midfield of supposed world class players. He did it without putting in the 'workaholic' approach.

If he were Spanish, he would be hyped as the best midfielder. Right now people say he is average and Pogba world class?

Henderson is average. Very average. And Milner has never been world class in his 17-year career.
Henderson is underrated.

That guy killed Barca in the UCL

Nothing to criticize anymore. Mourinho is gone. His man Ole is in charge and things still not working.

At some point in life, we are all going to be very less interested in this forum. Age and responsibility will set in. You are not going to be here arguing with your son or son's mate.

When a counter attack is on, a pass that should put the next man through will never be precisely made.

Another Rooney wonder goal from his own half. Third in his career for the man who owns the record for scoring best EPL goal ever.

Na our current players don't even have common ball shooting techniques.

SAF didn’t have any acumen. Baba was buying league and bullying refs while at it.

Once baba saw that more clubs were beginning to equal United in purchasing power, baba japa to save his reputation and United went down from there.

^^^ I’ve spoken the truth again. You scums can go hang yourselves.
Did he also buy EUFA officials when United played 3 UCL finals in four years?

What about when United beat Chelsea in UCL final, UCL Q/Final and beat Arsenal in UCL semi-final. The Chelsea beating was home and away.

You no know ball.

last him I checked, the permissible maximum number of registerable players (EPL) is 25...with atleast 8 of them homegrown.

Bearing this in mind, how do we keep "everybody" like you are suggesting?

In a football team, new players win their places. We had Garry Neville, Brown and Oshea playing the right back for United in 2008/2009 when Rafael Da Silver came, Neville said he knew he had to give way. We fans all submitted that we had someone capable of taking us to the next level.Neville retired because he could not afford to sit on the bench. Brown stayed because he became a deputy right back and center back. Oshea was all weather.

Not bringing 'Stanley Okoro' to replace Mata just because Stanley is young. Let Stanley prove that Mata is no longer relevant at all.
