United’s full backs are terrible. Not a single decent cross into the box. Put Trent/Robertson in this team and the outcome would be different. AWB is completely useless after the half way line. Shaw puts in a decent cross once in 20 attempts. Ronaldo scores!!!! |
Oasis007:Brazil, Chil, Mexico, Paraguay have all agreed to waive the automatic 5-day restriction. The only things surer than Pastor Fred starting tomorrow are taxes and death. ![]() |
Oasis007:This man has no shame. Didn’t he say trophies are an ego thing? ![]()
|
Oasis007:One would think Ole wasn’t the reason Donny had a “disappointing” season last year. Donny has come out to say he can play as a 6 and that he started as a 6 at Ajax. With Fred’s suspension still in the balance, Ole has to start Donny tomorrow. |
Botfuss:His age didn’t stop him from winning the golden boot in Serie A(ahead of Lukaku) or winning the golden boot at the Euros(ahead of Sterling, Mbappe, Lewandowski, Lukaku, Kane, Immobile, Griezmann, Icardi, Werner, etc). The days of Ole’s cluelessness are numbered. If he doesn’t get the best out of Ronaldo, it’s Ole’s job on the line. There can be no excuses for Ole going forward. |
Botfuss:Why not? Ronaldo hasn’t even kicked a ball yet and you are already in panic stations. ![]() |
patrickmuf:It hasn’t been resolved yet so it’s possible but not definitive. Klopp has said he would play Firmino and Alisson after Brazilian FA excluded Richarlison from the list of players that should be banned. |
There shall be heartbreaks on this thread when Fred starts tomorrow. Fred is Ole’s most trusted soldier in the midfield. |
Oasis007:Why sell Bailly when VDB had offers from Everton, and several clubs from Italy and Germany? Ole knew fully well he didn’t have an elite DM and yet blocked VDB’s transfer to Everton. He could have let VDB go and use his transfer fee to pursue an elite DM in the summer. Now, he still doesn’t have a DM and a player that he doesn’t trust at all to start in his team. Ole is so daft. |
ChristoBam:It’s because they know he’s a shitty manager. When Mourinho finished 2nd, he was given Dalot, Fred and Lee Grant the following summer and the expectation in the following season was a PL title. Ole finished 2nd, he’s been given a world class defender(Varane), the best goal scorer on the planet(Ronaldo), one of the best wingers in the world(Sancho) and yet Olesexuals are still in doubt if he has a good enough squad to win the title. Put Tuchel, Mourinho, Pep or even Moyes in Ole’s shoes and the expectation from the media would be PL + UCL final(at least). Pep won 17/18 PL without an elite left back. Pep had to figure out a way to win by playing Fabian Delph(midfielder) as LB and he got them to the title. Ole has to figure out a way too. There’s no complete team anywhere in the world. Every team can always be improved. Pep won the title again last season without an elite striker. He missed out on Kane this season and the bookies still have him as the title favorites. Ole should do the same and the expectation should be a PL title. No more excuses. |
Wan Bissaka and Shaw better start practicing how to cross the ball. They won’t last long at United in the next 2 years with shitty crosses. |
JayKayMaybachz:Your theory is flawed. Ole has been signing everyone bar who he wants for years - that’s actually his modus operandi. Why did he buy James when he couldn’t get Sancho? Why did he sign Ighalo and Cavani after Haaland turned him down? Actually, it was for this reason I thought he would at least sign Saul Niguez on loan in the meanwhile before the money for Rice/Ndidi is ready. The DM position is a blind spot for Ole and his useless back room staff. You would think Michael Carrick and Darren Fletcher who were brilliant midfielders at the club would see the gaping hole in the midfield but years of rubbing shoulders with Ole has reduced their IQ. |
CrystalTiger:Saul can play as a DM and he’s better than McFred, Matic or whoever we play there. Those at the club are useless. When Ole bottles all the competitions again this season, we would hear plenty of excuses about rebuilding for the future. |
Oasis007:Chelsea got Saul for €4m on loan. You want to tell me Woodward doesn’t have £3.4m from the James transfer to get Saul? Why am I even blaming Woodward? The Norwegian fraud has already said he’s more than happy with his squad - so no excuses. |
Oasis007:He is a useless manager. We needed a CDM before McTominay’s injury. Now that he’s injured, everyone felt a CDM is a must buy. That he’s completely ignored that department of the pitch just tells you how idiötic the manager is. This is his best opportunity to win the PL and he is blowing it. By this time next summer, United would lose 2-3 players that they have to replace - excluding the DM he’s planning to buy next summer. Back to square one! |
Saul Niguez to Chelsea!!! They have Kante, Jorginho and they have added Saul to the fold. Ole and Woodward are lunatics. |
Oasis007:They are interviewing him on SkySports now. Leeds FC is his level. I wish him well at Leeds. |
Expert17:Italy’s not a farmer’s league. We all saw how Italy(mostly Serie A players) decapitated England(mostly PL players) in the last Euros.
|
Expert17:Why are you counting from 2018? Ronaldo’s career started in 2018 or what’s the purpose of cutting it to the last 3 years? I can also say Bruno scored close to 80% of his free kicks in a farmer’s league in Portugal where majority of the defenders are part-time ritualists. |
TheLequte:Because that profit is not going into squad investment. James’ transfer fee will go into buying another yacht for one of the Glazers in Miami. I would rather we got an elite CDM instead of signing and selling Daniel James. His arrival and departure contributed nothing to the squad. |
Ole wasted money on Van De Beek(£35m), Amad(£20m), Pellistri(£8m), Daniel James(£15m) That’s almost £80m that could have gotten 2 elite DMs in the last 2 years. United are well stacked in all other departments but empty in the midfield role. Ole has turned this team into a doughnut. |
Oasis007:CR7 - freekicks Bruno - penalty kicks |
Oasis007:Bruno - 41 penalties scored in 44 attempts. Ronaldo - 139 penalties scored in 166 attempts. Statistically, Bruno is better at taking penalties than Ronaldo. |
Oasis007:Cavani has agreed to let Ronaldo have the #7 shirt. The matter is now in the hands of the PL because we have already registered Cavani as #7 but certain exceptions can be given. Cavani has no qualms letting Ronaldo have #7. Cavani will take James’ #21 shirt. It’s the same number he wears for Uruguay. |
timay1:You may be right but I noticed a trend that has to be mentioned. Ole’s first purchases came from lowly Crystal Palace, Swansea, Leicester, etc. This summer, he’s gone to buy players from Real Madrid, Dortmund and Juventus. Is this a coincidence or dude has realized buying low quality players isn’t going to cut it at the top level? |
elampiro:And if he had gotten injured during the testing, Ole would be telling us in Norwegian language that we cannot move him because of his injury. There was no reason to play James yesterday. We wasted an entire half because of him on the pitch. He was just running around like a happy rabbit. In another news, there’s now a price war for James. Everton are about to hijack the deal. ![]() I have seen it all in 2021. |
Oasis007:I am 100% concerned with Ole’s brain power. So any slight injury to James yesterday would have nullified this transfer to Leeds. Why did Ole start James at all knowing there was a risk of injury to him? James contributed nothing, he was removed after 52 minutes and put on a transfer shelf 24 hours later. This is the evidence that the manager at Man Utd has zero cognitive ability. |
Bye bye Daniel James.
|
jargooflife912:Fred is an excellent ball winner. He reads the game very well, he intercepts and he generally constitutes a nuisance to the opponent’s build up. Fred’s problem is passing the ball after winning it. He makes at least 10 mistakes per game and this is because Ole is brainless. A player like Fred should be conditioned not to pass the ball more than 5-10 yards to a team mate. I often see Fred attempting cross field passes ranging from 20-40 yards, I see Fred attempting line breaking passes. Ole should know he’s not capable of such passes. Fred’s main objective should be winning the ball and making short passes. |
Oasis007:Diogo Dalot has completed more dribbles (1) than Dan James (0) in the Premier League this season Dalot has spent one PL minute on the pitch... |
Expert17:Isn’t this because Bruno played more minutes? Bruno made 37 PL apps to KDB’s 25. |
eph12:Bruno laments to the referee. Martial misses a chance and you see him lamenting to himself. He would stay still for 5 mins while the ball is in United’s half. That crap needs to stop. |
