Is Matic really one of your best headers? I dont recall him scoring a lot of headers though
He is still better than Tuanzebe, Shaw, AWB, VDB, Rashford, Martial, Mata and Bruno in the air......and he was the one left behind defending.

Your last paragraph summarises everything.

However, I have to point out that having your DM as the last man when your team is playing a corner kick is pretty normal. We do that with Kante, Makelele, etc...
The tallest player on the field also one of the best with headers as the last man WHILE Shaw and Wan bissaka that are both useless in the air attacking our corner kick is a stupid decision...

Yesterday, Bruno lost possession 34 times in 90 mins, that’s about 1 in 3 minutes. How come he has become shit? Same Bruno?

Blame the system, not the players!
Bruno rarely pass the balll straight to his teammates feet, he pass into spaces...expecting them to make that run.

Werner or Jota
You know the answer..

Cheap

He plays as a sub

No PK yet

Better goal ratio

No hype cheesy cheesy

He is 27 and will need to score at least 22 goals for the next 5 seasons to match Shearer. Shearer record won't be broken for a long time.
He can break the record, Kane won't retire or leave EPL at 32 years old.

He is getting deadly day by day ( just like Jamie Vardy at 33, Zlatan at 39, Lewandowski at 32).....this is a record Rooney would have shattered if he hadn't sacrifice that much at United.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 7:23am On Nov 06, 2020
Harry Kane on fire

12 goals & 10assists in 13 games this season.

200 goals in 300 games for Spurs.

148 goals in EPL, the only player that can break Shearer's 260 goals record.

Even if the stupid players are behaving cluelessly, shouldn’t the coaching crew be on the touch line screaming their heads off?
Players can easily forget game-plan/instructions that was already laid down in training.....that is why you see managers always screaming during games trying to remind them or even change game-plan.

But OLE go just sit down
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 11:17am On Nov 05, 2020
The tallest player on the field defending possible counter-attack from our corner kick embarassed embarassed instead of attacking the ball in the opponent box.

Foolish coaching crew

Did u start watching Jorginho this season?

That has always been his style long b4 Bruno even thought of coming to EPL.. He even scored a PK using that his run and hop style on his Chelsea debut
Bruno plays his PK that same way right from Italian league to Sporting lisbon and now United.

Van Vaal was sack after end of season. He was basically sack because we did not qualify for champions League which was the standard.
Mourinho was sacked before the 2nd half of the season and we were not mathematically out of Top 4 race.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 8:18pm On Nov 04, 2020
BARAJ92:
what is the standard at Juventus? He was not sack during the season. Any coach in PSG, Bayern Munich or Juventus will be judged based on champions League success not league based on them dominating their league.
Then we should stop spending big on transfers or paying high wages like those so called big clubs.

Since you expect us to judge our season based on top 4.

We can't have the highest paid GK in the world, Highest transfer fee for Midfielder and Defender in EPL history, 2nd highest wage bill in the world etc........and you want us to settle for top 4 only
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 8:05pm On Nov 04, 2020
BARAJ92:
You don't sack a coach that has not fail woefully. Ole will only be sacked when it is obvious that we can't make top 4 which is our realistic target for the season.
Stop saying trash please.

Sarri failed woefully at Juventus?

Or you want me to list managers that were sacked even after performing better than this fraud....

Dont you think Bruno, Magwaya are also getting tired? If they play three consecutive games, they will just crash or start playing rubbish. You think it's easy. That's why rotation helps now.
Maguire and Bruno should be complaining of tiredness(no sign of that yet) and not Pogba.

They played almost all our games from start to finish since last season until now.

Yes, I don't think he even tried to argue with the referee (re: the decision). He was really tired. I would blame OGS though, for not replacing him after the first half. At the same time, OGS was in a fix because his two midfielders (Pogba and Bruno) were not in the game, he was absolutely clueless. He did not know what to do.
Tired after 60mins in October? Week 6 out of 38 weeks in EPL, ....Pogba tired grin grin

Phucking useless player

If we can avoid it, we have to keep our best players fit for more stressful matches. We should be more concerned about Everton than this match. We don't want a tired Bruno against Everton. And you know we don't know how to kill off teams early, we leave things late. So no chance removing Bruno early
Another angle.

Everton game is another acid test.

Maguire self need rest, baba go faint for field one day.

To be fair, Bruno was just as bad. Only difference was Pogba gave away a pen.
Rashford, Bruno etc all played rubbish against Arsenal but Pogba's class of rubbish was higher.

Jogging on the field, romancing ball, etc

I have been waiting patiently to see Matic and VDB partnership.

Can't wait to see how it goes.

Pogba should be starting this match ahead of Fernandes. Willams instead of Shaw and Cavani ahead of Rashford
After Pogba's cataclysmic performance against Arsenal, he doesn't deserve to start the next game even if it's a friendly match.

Lost Saka on countless time, including the header from the guy, if na Lacazette or Aubameyang see that free header ehn? As Shaw dey die go, E better pass Awb x3, because of his positioning

I laugh whenever mumu Awb is on attacking mode.. Bros leg and his movement dey be like Sega Player own.. Manchester United fans dey suffer o grin

I don't doubt Partey talent/ability. My point is if Partey is in this team what would be happening right now? Will he be expected to play the DM all by himself? Will he flourish alone in an attacking team with two attacking minded midfielders beside him?
In-form Matic can play the DM role all by himself.

Partey got Mctoninay and Fred ability.

He will flourish beside 2 attack-minded midfielders.

After his tenure at RW, he was also useful at RB.....same can't be said of Jogba.

So Partey has made his name playing under defensive minded coaches where more players are also required to defend? I would love to see him under a coach where he's the only DM and no one to help him
And many DM failed under the same defensive-minded coaches.

Take your time to watch the guy, you will see the ability/talent there.

Stop yarning opata jare. Mkhi scored 6 goals 0 assists in the Europa League, Pogba scored 3 and provided 1 assist. So, what's the diff for real? Don't forget that they did not play the same role.

In the EPL, Mhiki scored just 5 goals in 16/17 and 17/18 before he was bundled to Arsenal, Pogba dropped 11 goals and 14 assists in the same period. There is a reason Mhiki, Fellaini, and those players were told to leave, but Pogba is still very much around.
Phil Jones is still around
