Ferguson would hv benched DDG since last season......

He did the same thing 2011/2012, started using Anders Lindegaard.

We should cash out on him now, he is 28/29 years old.
Who go buy am self

He means the added pressure and scrutiny that comes with playing for United, every mistake will be dissected and blown out of proportion by the media and fans... but you should know this already.
True.

Ole needs to make a decision on DDG soon.

We are tired

It is different. The pressures are different. The expectation is different. That alone changes the dynamic of playing for a big club where the expectation is sky high.
True. That's another angle

It is different. There are some people who thrive well under pressure, bright lights, and scrutiny.

Others thrive only when there is no scrutiny and pressure.

We won’t know which group Henderson falls into however until we give him an opportunity.
Let's start with Henderson or Romero next season and decide the category they belong to...

DDG main issue is lack of CONFIDENCE.

The more I see the replay the worse it looks for Maguire and DDG. That shot was hit hard but it was straight at DDG and Maguire was just what we expected. Very slow turning.

I do like Henderson but lets remember that playing for united is very different to playing for Sheffield.
Playing for a top team (Man Utd) or a team that just got promoted (Sheffield).... Which is easierhuh?

Probably. Another humongous contract that would be very difficult to move.
Kepa as the first choice for Spain confirmed it.

But some won't agree, basic goalkeeping stuffs DDG can't do again.

Who offered the guy 350k a week contract...

Martial should go back to playing LW. That striker role is not for him
Thank you.

That guy is not a striker, he should leave there for someone else.

I enjoy watching Martial running at defenders, and he can't do that often as a striker.

Chelsea will drop points against Aston Villa & Man City.

What really matters is if “we” can take advantage of it.
Chelsea will drop points, we gonna drop points also.....

So no difference, this was the same scenario towards the end of last season.

The goal was mainly Maguire’s fault for clearing the way for Bergwijn like that BUT DDG has to take some share of the blame to.

It was from 15-16 yards and straight at him. With better goalkeeping he should have punched that clear.

At this rate i think it would be prudent to recall Henderson for next season and potentially offload DDG.

The lack of full fitness on both sides was obvious so it is difficult to draw conclusions from this game, apart from those problems which have become a trend.
DDG is finished. Simple

When a coach like Mourinho has had three months to observe an opponent and prepare his team, it was always going to be difficult. It is natural to 'play into his hands'. He made it that way.

The players are just back with different level of fitness, we can excuse mistakes. But we know Maguire is naturally slow. Vidic too was slow. These kind of players use positioning to shield their defence.

Abeg forget Mourinho, the man don finish.

I believe we gonna bounce back stronger in our upcoming games.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 7:24am On Jun 20, 2020
8 games to go.

Degea make your head correct abeg.

Chelsea might start winning games, so no space for another mistake.
Maguaaya and Limpdelof pls behave

Until Romero keeps 10 straight league matches before we can say he is good to be United number 1.
10 straight league games, and I can bet anything we are going to finish atleast 5 - 7 games with clean sheet

Easy on DDG Bruh. I ain't exonerating him of any wrong doing, but the truth be told, he's not to be blamed "solely" for the Goal.

Maquire lost his Man disgracefully Bruh. Imagine Rashford or Martial had that kinda Opportunity as Bergwin and fluffed it, what
would you have said?!

Praise the opposing Keeper or curse hell out of our Player?!
True.

Both Maguire(big head) and DDG (blind bat)

Romero is not good at low shots. But he is super at difficult aerial threats easy. He commands his box.
What's DDG good at now??

Even the legs he was the best at, he can't find them anymore

I thought it was Matic should be sold just four months back. How do we allow ourselves to be swayed easily by current moment. Fred was our best player for a while and suddenly after one match he is the worst?

You guys should let these boys play football and see how things look
I will pick Matic over Fred as DM everyday.

Don't be deceived by Matic's lack of pace, you don't need speed to play 4

You are a bad Guy.

Anyway, I think we're being unjust with our Criticism of DDG. Maguire is solely responsible for the Goal. Let's be honest here, the Shot was hotter than fire. The Speed it moved was like a Missile.

DDG should have saved it with Fist, but Bergwin was to free to miss a well powered Shot on Target.
We are not paying DDG 350k per week ( highest in the world ) to be making routine saves.

That Shot can be saved, DDG is finished.

He should be thrown out

I thought British United fans that call him fridge were exaggerating. At times, the guy acts like he's a distant relative of Luiz.

This is not the first time the guy will sleep off on an advancing attacker. Burnley's second goal at OT is a near perfect carbon copy of Spurs goal tonight.

He should keep it up. Captain's armband wont save him from the wrath of the fans.
The guy should be partnered with Bailly

Lindelof and Maguire don't have understanding even after playing this season together.

I am beginning to lean towards the argument of those who want Henderson to be our No. 1 next season. De Gea should have parried that ball away.
Thank you ooo

Guys are saying its a powerful show.

Something Romero will save without stress

How many more years can you get out of Cavani as the main striker?
3 good years

You guys are acting as if, there are not enough games for everyone to play

Ferguson at some point had 4-5 strikers in the team and rotate them well

I will say it again, we can't win EPL with Martial as our 9

I know you’re looking for a worthy name to replace Martial, I’m just telling you that that name isn’t ‘Cavani’.
Not Cavani because we just exercised the option of keeping Ighalo, nothing more.

Very soon, Greenwood will start benching this Martial, mark my words

I already agree with you on Magwaya.

But De Gea is just to blame. No be today we don dey watch ball to see defender Bleep up, only for the GK to save the day.

De Gea fúcked up. He should have saved that or at least parried it to the corner. The fact that it even bounced off him makes defending him worse.

And i see you guys saying that shot was close range. This is not close range....
After collecting around 300-350k per week, they are saying he was exposed to danger cheesy cheesy cheesy

Romero will save this with ease

Degea should be the one going out on loan next season not Henderson.

How many goals did Larsson score?

The remaining 3 you mentioned all joined from rival clubs in EPL and were at their best when they did.

United has previously tried going the way of name-signing but it clearly didn’t work.
Signing experience players won't stop young players from progressing.

They will direct and mentor the young lads, Martial needs correct mentoring, he's a big baby


Degea and Maguire can't return to the dressing room with confidence after this kind of error if Roy Keane is in that dressing room,

Lol. All these adjectives to describe the shot just to excuse De Gea from blame.

Shot that he saw coming and was like half a meter away from the edge of the box na wetin u dey call close range? U be prophet. Fear God small my guy. grin

He has saved hotter shots from point blank before. The guy has clearly lost it.
No mind them.

If defenders would be 100% efficient, no need for Goalkeepers.

That was the only time in the game, he was exposed to such threat, and he flopped woefully
