Why tf would ole let Dalot go on loan?

God, we are stuck with bissaka!

Ole has opened MS, na to start dey type in sack letter remain.
The team needs to do away with as many players as possible. Dalot was not offering something tangible to the team

I understand your point of view but don't forget that tariq is still a teenager and was only going through a phase in power book1. Which I believe everyone of of us went through different phase during our own time. As an adult there are times you tend to recall down Memory Lane and think about what u did in your teens and weren't proud of.
Now tariq is facing the challenges of life without the guardians of his parents and he isn't doing too badly. So let's give the young man a break and enjoy the show.
We need to learn to take responsibility for our actions. No phase should warrant one being a killer, not to talk of killing one's parent

i am gonna take this as an attempt at a banter. Cos what's the point of comparing them? He got to the semifinals last season, eliminating a more talented Man City in the process. So i suppose his coaching and the mental strength of his players must be good enough to cover for the supposed lack of talent.
RBL eliminated City last season? What is it you're smoking sef?

My plan isn't to draw this into a back and forth that can get a book deal. I know your kind and as time would have it, Ole now has an appointment with your impressive Nagelsmann. Time sits and presides as judge over all inferences. I won't speak any further on the comparison.
Who has a better team between both managers?

That stat you posted, was it really that bad considering the kind of football Brighton plays? At the end of the day, creating chances and putting them away is what matters.
What kind of football does Brighton play please? Does it mean that when they come up against other serious big teams with better managers, they will play better than those teams?

What happens if Brighton becomes lucky and put their chances away, after all they too were free to create chances?

Ok now we prefer stats to results abi, meanwhile last season our xG was very high... keep this same energy when we play well and lose like against Sevilla.
lol you should check my comments about the Sevilla match

Tell me which team acquires the desirable results at the end of the season and produces stats like this? Since to some of you, one has to pick the performance or the result.

The question is how soon will the sack come?
Maybe when it becomes mathematically impossible to make top 4

If things remain like this with no improvement in their performances on the field, Ole will get the sack. There's no two ways about it.

You want United fans to support RBL over United?

I honestly expect us to qualify for the second round of the UCL from this group. PSG and RBL are very beatable if we can get our act together. We have the team that can beat those guys

Pep has won 30 trophies in his career, with a Champions League trophy amongst them.

What’s that saying about all men being equal? cheesy

Btw, if Leipzig win, you’ll still come here to register your displeasure at Ole’s inability.

Pick a side.
Are you sure you want to do this?

If Manchester City qualify from their group, they'll be facing one of Liverpool, Ajax, Atalanta or Midtjyland

If Liverpool qualify from their group, they'll be facing one of Porto, Manchester City, Olympiacos or Marseille

If Chelsea qualify from their group, they'll be facing one of Zenit St Petersburg, Borussia Dortmund, Lazio or Club Brugge

If Manchester United qualify they'll be facing one of Juventus, Barcelona, Dynamo Kyiev or Ferencvaros
I don't think it's done this way unless things have changed

What position of the pitch was greenwood for his first goal against Bournemouth last season?
Where was Rashford when he gave the pass to Bruno who made the assist to Greenwood?
Omo that's like 10 games ago

E be like they are waiting for Sancho to come before they continue their swapping and fluidity o. Everybody is on break now

What I hope? As per I’m lying?

Are you proofreading your replies?

I gave James as an example of a player that operates differently based on the position he finds himself in. Do I really have to type it all over again? grin

So you don’t see Greenwood switch to the left in matches? and Rashford swift to the right? And vice versa? Lmaoooo

Oh well, Man United will rise again. Peace.
Greenwood and Rashford swapping? LMAOOOO

Omo cheesy

I answered your question, and now, my imagination is running wild?

So you don’t see them interchange positions during the match?

Just say you didn’t expect that there’ll be an accurate answer to your “WiCkeD” question lmaooooo

Maybe the next wicked question will be “What’s Ole’s tactics?” Lmfaoooo

Y’all better chill tf out on the tears here, because the blame is enough to go round for the situation the club finds itself in.
You can put the blame on me too

You just described what you hope the players were playing, but that is not it. You were mentioning James, meanwhile Greenwood starts ahead of him since June. There is no fluidity but you wish there is one

Fred is poor ooo. Na only energy to run him get. cheesy. Him no fit find person with pass beyond 20 feet.
Still he had the highest number of completed passes even though he didn't play for 90 minutes. His completed passes is almost x2 of his midfield partner McTom who played 90 minutes.

Sancho has pace, and is two-footed, which makes him versatile for both wings. OGS requires his attacking 3 to be fluid.

Sancho plays with ball to feet, similar to Anthony Martial. And he loves to dribble a lot. OGS seems to support players that dance in and around the box more than players that focus on making crosses.

Sancho also has an eye for pass, he possesses a very good playmaking ability, shown by his stat of last season. This means that in the system, the fluidity does not tamper with the quality of passing. For example, Daniel James. James style of play as a LW is different from his style of play as a RW. James plays more as an Inverted Forward when on the left, and as a Traditional Winger when on the right. He can’t play as an Inverted forward on the right because he isn’t two-footed.

Sancho plays as an Inverted forward on both wings because of his two-footedness, but his pace also gives him the ability to become unpredictable. He can either go in dribbling, or outpace defenders and put in a low cross for well-positioned CF to finish off. This is in line with OGS need for a fluid front 3.

Sancho himself is a good finisher, so while reading the game and setting up his teammates, his eye for goal cannot be underestimated, because he can shoot at any time, from anywhere within the box 18. Compare this to Mason Greenwood. Greenwood’s two-foot technique and power shot makes him a problem for keepers to deal with.

Now, let’s look at it from the mental aspect.

Sancho’s stats of last season prove that his decision-making is very good. You can’t rack up 17 assists with a dull brain. He plays for the team, and has good tactical understanding of the game well enough to know when to lay on a goal scoring chance for his teammates.

Sancho, just like Van De Beek has a good off-the-ball movement. Though I believe that VDB is slightly better than him in that aspect. Players with good off-the-ball movement are quality because they already know what to do with the ball before it arrives. That aids the team flow on the pitch.

Despite the hype and media coverage, Sancho seems to remain focused on becoming one of the best in the world. His interviews prove that. It’s not easy for a player of his age to manage such level of hype. That shows a strong mentality.

Lastly, Sancho already knows most of the guys at United, so gelling shouldn’t be a problem.



This is the last time I’ll have to explain stuff like this. If you want to know a player’s style of play, go watch your damn TV.
Omo your imagination was running wild here

We have not seen any fluidity in Greenwood, Rashford and Martial in a while unless those once is a while play. Why is that? I guess Sancho will be the one to unlock them.
