So the coach no get thanks
I don’t waste my gratitude on morons like Ole.

If he got his tactics right, United wouldn’t have been that useless in the first half. No shot on target in the first half against Brighton - at home.

Pathetic! angry

GloryIsaac:
And they lost... grin
Give Potter United’s team and give Brighton players to the PE teacher, let’s see the outcome.

We don’t even need to wait to see the outcome. Ole already relegated Cardiff that had better players than the current Brighton team.

Was west brom better coached by Chelsea?
That’s a one off game and such happens.

Tuchel has already demonstrated what he’s about. Man went to Atletico and slapped them at home. This is his first loss since he joined Chelsea - its acceptable especially when the red card was the turning point.

Meanwhile, PE teacher was dumped out of Europe. Man even lost to a club in Turkey with a name that looked like wifi password. He’s not played in a final in almost 3 years with the number of talents he’s got at his disposal.

Ndidi has been top 5 DM in the EPL for at least 3 seasons. Leicester don't need to sell, they will surely rinse us for at least 50M.
Leicester need to sell to fix the gaping holes in their squad and they have not made a single penny from the gates this season.

Every club needs money now - I doubt the PE teacher would see the talents in Ndidi though. The same fool that bought Van de Beek when he already had Pogba, Bruno and Mata in his squad is unlikely to appreciate an outstanding talent like Ndidi.

Ndidi would be a perfect cog in that midfield but Leicester would rinse us real bad.
Ndidi is Nigerian - he doesn’t have the profile to command a huge transfer fee. I’d be surprised if he costs more than £40m.

If he’s from Brazil, France, England or Germany, they would put £120m price tag on him.

Bruno Fernandes - PFA loading grin grin grin
His haters are already panicking.

Bruno is not good, Bruno stat pads, Bruno is shit. The wizard still created 4 chances today. If he had quality team mates like the the City boys, he should have assisted 30 league goals by now.

Bruno’s quality is very very high.

Bruno and the Rashford that plays rubbish these days, or sorry since the beginning of the year grin

Make una calm down abeg.

We know the players can be useless, having a dolt as a coach has not helped us.
Bruno has done well - I don’t have anything bad to say to him. He gives the ball away cos he’s always taking risks, trying to create instead of hiding and doing 5-10 yards passing. I can live with that.

Rashford, on the other hand, has stagnated. The Rashford under Mourinho was better than this one we see lately - who just wants to keep running into dead ends with the ball when a simple pass would suffice. If we are not careful, Rashford would end up as another player of ours who never fully achieved his potentials.

This manager is a foking dunce. You can see that Brighton are intentional with the ball. They know what to do when they are with or without possession.

Our players are clueless when they get near the opponent’s 18 yard box. It’s very obvious that the manager is the issue in that regard. It’s as if they’re clueless and restricted on what to do. Too many unnecessary instructions
No shot on target at Old Trafford - against Brighton.

This is a new low, man.

Why exactly did we buy Cavani?
Because the PE teacher failed to sign his own former player after flying to Norway to convince him to join Man Utd.

Cavani isn’t even a bad player - we just have an idïot who doesn’t know how to use him. If you are going to start Cavani then give him a Telles that would keep pumping quality crosses into the box.

Now that Cavani is on the pitch, Ole won’t instruct his boys to cross to him. As soon as Daniel James replaces Cavani, you will start seeing crosses from all over trying to find a midget in the box.

Lindelof is the weakest centre back on the planet.

VDS won the UCL with Ajax at what age?
He is also the oldest player to win EPL .
Come up with a better excuse.
Anybody could have won the UCL with Ajax at that age. They had a very good team. De Gea outshines outfield players in his club - that’s the only difference.

When VDS was winning PFA team placement, there were at least 2 or 3 United defenders also in it & that tells you he was well protected. De Gea was winning PFA team slots in teams that finished 6th with defenders that aren’t up to standards.

VDS had 3 PFA slots, De Gea has had 5. They have both spent the same number of years in England(if you include VDS’ spell at Fulham). How come De Gea outperformed VDS that had the best centre halves in Europe as cover for more than 5 years? cheesy

You are a clown, mate.


Expert17:
How does this makes him better than VDS?

I also started playing for Niger Tornadoes in my 100 level second semester, (you know how rough and tough NPL is) so what's your point again?
You said he had no confidence. I didn’t say that made him better than VDS. I was shooting at your lack of confidence angle.

Expert17:
I have played in different leagues as a GK, so when we talk goalkeeping, you should listen.
You should go back and get more training on what a quality goalkeeper should be. De Gea won BBC’s save of the season awards in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018 behind the worst defenders in the league and you are comparing him to VDS?

Who’s VDS? What’s a VDS? grin cheesy

So you are saying the club must have been biased towards De Gea to give him 4 Matt Busby awards in 5 years - maybe you are right. Maybe De Gea has pörn videos of Woodward that he’s using to blackmail Ed.

So how come De Gea has also gotten more PFA team of the year placements than Van Der Sar ever did? Did De Gea also blackmail all his fellow professional players that voted him as the best GK in the league?

You did not watch VDS, simple.
De Gea that won under17 trophy & 2 unde21 trophies for Spain doesn’t have any confidence.

Left the comfort of his country at 19 to come and swim with the sharks in the toughest league in the world and that’s not confidence.

Some of you De Gea critics have never left your state but a teenage boy that did it has no confidence or positioning.

De Gea that was once regarded as the best goalkeeper in the world despite playing for one of the worst defence units in Europe. Don’t make me laugh.

He’s better than VDS in all these aspects. The only thing DDG doesn’t do at all is coming for crosses and that has to do with his fear of being clattered. It’s a flaw but he covers it well with his cat instincts.

De Gea didn’t win 4 Man Utd player of the year awards to be compared to a bum like Dean Henderson.

FYI, no other Man Utd player in their 100+ years history have won more club awards than De Gea. He’s won the award more than world class players like Ronaldo, Ruud, Rooney, Keane, etc .

If De Gea was British, he would have a statue outside Old Trafford. This sudden disrespect of one of the best players at this club is shameful.

Expert17:
So why are you blaming Maguire and Lindelof?
Or Jones is better than them?
You cannot expect De Gea to be bailing them out all the time. De Gea has paid his dues at United, it’s about time the club starts giving him back his respect.

I remember when De Gea was the only world class player at the club. Winning the club’s player of the year awards almost every season. He never abandoned the club for the bigger clubs that time. He was loyal.

Even when LVG/Woodward wanted to sell him to Madrid and the fax machine got in the way of the deal, De Gea never kicked a fuss or downed tools. He never said nonsense to the media. He was loyal to the very end.

Now that he’s out of form, this shameless club wants him out for a rookie nobody rates outside UK. Rashford, Maguire, James, and the other British liabilities at the club are doing just fine - even with their pathetic performances year after year but De Gea who has always been loyal can get the chop.

If that doesn’t make your skin crawl, I don’t know what else to say. Man Utd have no class. That’s the moral of the story here.

Expert17:
And DDG led defence let us down in this same competition last year grin
Like I said, he cannot keep bailing this club out. He’s done it for almost 10 seasons. The club should get him quality defenders. The era of making 14 saves per game is well and truly over. Why should he kill himself for a club that is disloyal to him?


Expert17:
The GK that played the final or the GK that took you to the final...... Who is Important?

leave this people, I was shocked when I saw people arguing that VDS was a better goalie than De gea lololololololololololol.

Only the Great Dane and Cech would claim to be better goalkeepers in the PL era than De gea.
It’s nostalgia - people tend to rate what happened in the past over what they see now.

Besides, the wall to wall reporting of football games these days, social media, etc also heighten the flaws of today’s players. Something that was barely existing in VDS days.

As a goalkeeper, I have never seen any United GK do what De Gea did against Arsenal at the Emirates in 17/18 or at Spurs in 18/19. It’s the best performance from a GK I have ever been privileged to see.

VDS was never at that top level. Never ever.
