Martial should up his confidence!

He needs to believe in himself, everyone believes in him that's why the criticisms are sometimes overblown.

I'm just passed with Mou's rotation, how's he to get a balanced first 11 with that?

Fukc José tho and his deflated balls,that Thursday night bullsh1t is still sour.

Never seen this fuvkery in a long time!!!!

Spy360:
Elrony instead claimed that there is no CAM in a 433.

I was the one who pointed out that Leicester's 442 was without a CAM but Ancelloti's diamond has CAM.

Give praise to whom praise is due.

If only you did comprehend fully,you would have seen the exact meaning of the sentences you did read.

Brightwood:
You have a mourinho mindset...SMH...Sign this Sign that, We are now fools in the transfer market, it's time for the board to be more stringent in the transfer budget.

It's not about Mou's mindset, let off dead woods and sign quality to improve the team, how is it a Mou's thing?
So we shouldn't sign players again because Mourinho is in charge?

eph12:
Aside Fellaini, who should leave? You know we have to sell off some of these players to offset some of the wage burden. For me Rooney, Mata, Darmian and Fellaini should.

Young nko?... I know we would definitely sell to bring balance to the wage bill

afrodoc2:
I think kagawa has a point here. Veratti is more an 8 than a 6. But if he came he wouldn't be replacing Carrick or even Pogba, it would be Herrera losing his starting place.
The advantage of that is with a circulator of ball like Veratti or Kroos partnering Pogba we can go for a pure DM to replace Carrick.
If we don't get a such a player to partner Pogba then we need a Carrick like DM e.g Martinez, Busquets or someone similar to play the 6.

Summary is we need a playmaker either at the 6 position or 8 position in order to make our midfield work.

I'd say sign both...The season is always fixture laden over here.

MRTA7:
This Soton team will give us a game if we make it to the final. Fortunately Van Dij is injured for a while.

Liverpool could be the team to drop out of the top 4. Is that 1 win in the last 6/7 games in all comps?

Even Cardiff will give us a game at a final, it's a match of everything to lose,so expect some determination from the underdogs.

Same way Wigan did City

What a Long nite at Anfield

igbsam:
Liverpool sha!

Wetin concern me?

Let's beat Hull tomorrow and secure our chance for a trophy at the finals.

edoyad:
I envy you guys sha, you have redefined consistency sixthfully

Same way you guys have defined sterility across Europe dominantly.

Let's just chill till the summer,then make it rain!

I respect him for his Honing abilities, Player management and football philosophy but no respect giving for his achievements. Roberto Mancini and Pellegrinni did better despite their short stints. Maybe Arsenal are comfortable with Incomes For the board than Trophy cabinets for the fans, Sometimes I wonder what the fans see in such tour of the stadium, Pictures or TROPHIES. They would have kept glorifying their FA cup achievements if not that a Certain Possession oriented Entity Van Goal won it despite under achieving.
Pochettino right now is building something For the future that Wenger can only envy.

Gayners like anticipation, reason they stuck with Wenger.. ask any of them. You'll hear "next season"

.
It was the same with Scholes. You have to pick and choose when to tackle and when to hold back or just shadow and you also have to control your temper.
Scholes is the 3rd most carded player in EPL history and the most carded in UCL history.

Scholes favourite = two legs sliding
I could remember one of our UCL matches as a teen, e be like na against Benfica or so, I just say make I drink water next thing I dey see Scholes dey jog comot field

Baldg:
Ligue 1 is quite forgiving. in the PL, he'll be The Refs favorite for cards.

Lol especially if he wears a united jersey

afrodoc2:
A flat 4-4-2 does not have a CAM. Leicester, Diego Simeone's Atletico most of the time, Arrigo Sacchi's Milan.

A diamond 4-4-2 has a DM, 2CMs and a CAM.

That was what Elrony was trying to teach people here.

I just hope this helps, cos dem don dey solve maths join am!

fredoooooo:
Don't mind these people Jare ,they are all clowns

Hehehehe Headoyad and his band of Merry men

afrodoc2:
Yes Verrati is the truth. He has all the tools needed, he just needs to clean up his disciplinary record.

The way that ninja dey get red card dey baffle me, cos he ain't that aggressive looking.

Baldg:
Dude is just there for the taking.
Lieing in wait and when he's snapped up, the Old Aged one will then remember how he was scouted while young to be a GONER.

Shots fired at the greatest (s)c(o)unt ever liveth!!! Professor Arsene Wenger

Baldg:
You'll love what you see when you watch his clips and analyze. I Only can imagine the Well packed Midfield consisting of Him ,Pogba and Herrera.

And I read he's cheap less than 30m cheap, Loserfools are currently gunning for him

Safe to say there ll never be another Carrick , just as there ll never be another Scholes at Manchester United.

afrodoc2:
Carvalho is powerful, tenacious and sees danger early but he has the pace of a pregnant rhino and limited passing range.
I have not seen enough of Bakayoko to make an assessment. But if you are looking to replace Carrick with a similar player your best candidates are Sergio Busquets and Javi Martinez.

Javi "Clutches" Martinez? ... The guy go just dey injure anyhow for EPL, he's so good no doubt,buh he too like sick bay

Kagawa10:
Is Bakayoko not a defensive box-box CM? I thought it was Fabinho doing the holding midfield role.

Anyway, my ideal holding player would be Florentina's Badelj. There's also KSY of Southampton but I think he's regressed although the Saints often deploy him as a no 8, instead of playing him as a no 6.

As in Fabinho the defender?
KSY as in that former Swansea guy?

Baldg:
Try and compare the two Midfielders. Carvallho is pure Muscle and grit.
he can only be bested by a technically gifted no 10, who doesnt mind doing the dirty work.

I can't compare well enough,I haven't watched both well enough, though I think Carvallho is more experienced.

Spy360:
I need to ask you the same question because I don't get what the 'C' in your RCM and LCM means.

Oh! I see your one eye...

Right Central Midfielder as in normal human being CM

fredoooooo:
edoyad come out here and explain all these ass'es LCM abi na HCF ..
I don't know when footy turn to maths
Win league No
Win champions League No
LCM and HCF yes

LMAOOO you sef ehn.

Spy360:
Forget Man United's formation for now. Let me assume the 4-1-2-3 formation you gave. Didn't you notice you play a double 10?

Back to Man United, that is a highly attacking formation you gave. And Mou will never push men forward like that. Every body that follows Mou know this basic fact.

If you need a formation where a 10 is not used, it is Leicester's 442 last season. That was a counter attacking formation, which had failed in times past but was ressurected by Raniery. But even in that, one of the strikers drops back. In Leicester it was Okazaki.

What do you understand by a 10 sef? Stop confusing yourself thinking we play two CAMs, we don't!

It's both RCM and LCM

Spy360:
On GK, the sweeper in the team is usually a player in the defence line- I remember Lothar Mathaus (maybe you were not born then ) but now some managers like Pep add that role to the GK job. It's like comparing an orthodox FB with a modern WB.

I can ignore your case on GK but not on the 10. The 10 is the chance creator, unless you pattern you team to just defend. But from all I have seen United under Mou, there have always been a 10. He started with Rooney, then Mata on few occasions, and Pogba recently.

In a 442 diamond, what do you mean by 2 CMs without a 10?

Ancelotti is the godfather of diamond formations, you just have to look at all his teams. Wo do you think is at the tip of the diamond?

Currently he plays a 433 which easily transits to a 4231, using Thiago as his 10 in both situations.

Lastly, a 4213 is a 433 unless you plan to park bus. This couldn't have been United's formation...

............................. De Gea .........................
Valencia ... Jones .. Rojo .. Darmian
Carrick .............. Pogba .......... Herrera
Mkhi .................... Ibra ............. Martial

Hope you too understand?

From all you've seen?... e clear say na only 5 man U matches you don watch this season

Nwanna, read the bolded and understand the sentence you made reference to na.

Sorry jare, Mou's 4-3-3, is built with Carrick as the pivot,Pogba and Herrera as RCM and LCM.
No "10". That's been our best and most used formation so far. (I guess you can call it a 4-1-2-3 if you want )

dyabman:
Must you talk

I no talk anything na

Ibime:
By same reasoning, what do you call a midfielder whose team scored 176 goals in a season and he only scored or assisted 6 of them.

Fill in the blanks:

Pius E_nuch In_e_ta

Lol baba Vanessa I see what you did there! !!


Pius Eunuch Iniesta

Baldg:
Dude seems impressive, but don't think Monaco are willing to sell. He's one of their priced assets.
What's his specialty or advantage over Carvallho?

Ehmm...I can't say for shizzle,haven't watched him that much.

Baldg:
Eureka...

Guys, I have found the perfect foil for Carrick.
he is William Carvallho. The dude is a Mop up midfielder and snuffs out attacks before it becomes a problem. He may not have Carrick's range of probing passes yet, but he's a beast of a player in stop-starting possession. Compare their Stats on Squawka.

what do you think?

Carvalho?....is he better than Bakayoko?

eph12:
It was even obvious Fellaini and Pogba were not occupying same position if you watch the match. Pogba was always ahead of him and someone says they were both DM. What kind of DM is that?

Maybe na dat Yo Gotti "DM"
