Spurs are currently building a dynasty. Once they win any trophy at all, they will be on to something special.

Only crazy money makes Spurs sell.
Remember what Kyle walker cost city.

Then we go for Fahinho.

EricIyke:
Was thinking you have something meaningful to say.
Can you for once let the human in you speak?
What you just said has perfectly defined the kind of person you are.
Ignorant punk!
Nnamdi Kanu would have been a force Nigeria will be restructured or divided, but hell no!
Our stupid leaders opposed him and were used against him.
Never knew they'll lose their voice so soon.
Now where is the restructuring?

Who wants Restructuring? Not me.

Proudlyngwa:
Some strikers can defend. Some are a liability while defending, that's why you won't see them defending corners set pieces or tracking back except to man mark.

well still missing Zlatan

Proudlyngwa:
That's not enough reason to sell.
He has made a clarification statement on that.

Should he refuse a contract extension, then I will know there is something going on.

Spurs only sell for crazy cash.

They will sell if we want him.

Proudlyngwa:
Mykhitaryan, just like Mata, fabregas, ozil are luxury players. You need work horses by their side to cover their defensive deficiencies.

and you know wants all his players including strikers to be defend when need.

EricIyke:
When Kanu was around everybody was making noise about restructuring,
Ohaneze, governors, so called Igbo leaders, politicians, Mr A to Mr Z, today Ohamadike is not around, they are singing different tunes for their masters in Abuja (LOL).
So Kanu was the one who gave them voice?
Is it not time for them to accept that the only credible Biafran and Igbo leader is Kanu?
Am watching the space.
All Hail Biafra.

Everybody was using Him to score some cheap points, but as the guy mumu reach e allow the thing enter e head.

Kanu is a pig that's all i can say. Goodnight.

Proudlyngwa:
The thing is the distance between defense and midfield is wider than between midfield and attack, if you want Mykhitaryan to flourish, push him to the right wing, in. A free role.
No tracking back responsibilities.

well, i know little of Him before joining United, so i cant say much about him, now.

Proudlyngwa:
What makes you feel spurs will sell.

Rose want to move North and he also questioned the club payroll policy some few months back, so I think a swap deal plus cash will do.

Proudlyngwa:
Without their presence, we have to adapt, we are still playing the same formation as if they are available.
Honestly when some players don't do well. Confidence tends to drop.
We need to find another way to resume services to Lukaku.
He is over due a goal.

The thing is that Mhiki is playing absolute rubbish this days. Lukaku will soon resume scoring, lets hope against Chelsea.

Proudlyngwa:
I can't wait for Rojo to come back.

Shaw has been unfortunate, hope he does not go the way of Anderson

I see him joining Spurs, then Rose joining Us, next summer.

Proudlyngwa:
Shaw is the best option at left back barring injuries.
Blind is a better option at left back
Young at left wing back
Rojo at left center back.

You just remind me of Rojo, im so glad he will be back after the international break.

As for Shaw sometimes I feel like He came to United to recieve salaries without playing. The guy is a chicken.

Proudlyngwa:
Young @ left back is a mirage.
He is only being managed there, the aim is to use him at LWB if the three regular center halves are available. And that is a position I know he is good at.
Currently we are not playing 3-5-2.
At LB Blind is a better option.

Blind is too weak for my liking, I dont see shaw getting into the team anytime soon.

Proudlyngwa:
Actually for me the line up did not fit the formation, we are usually overrun in the middle of the park.
Since Pogba Injury, we are being outnumbered, If we play this way on Sunday, it won't be easy.

Its a known fact, that United need pogba or atleast King Fellaini, our midfield is empty, only Matic does all the job alone.

Proudlyngwa:
Do you remember the case of Andreas Pereira, the boss wanted him to stay. He needed a new challenge and went on loan.

Shaw is a special case, I hope his psychology can be managed well.
I do not know see him happy.

With the Form of Young at that LB, Shaw should just wait for his time. Let the most inform player play.

Proudlyngwa:
Carano Cup is not a enough, for someone fighting to get into a world cup team.
Shaw is our only natural left back.


Cc. BANTINO

Shaw will come around, let's leave the manager to do his work on shaw

Proudlyngwa:
Let's hope so too.

Meanwhile how do you analyze the starting line up of the United team in the Benfica match.
What a really your positives and Negatives

the lineup was just okay for me, Scott did well at his standard, the only negative was Lukaku, just as paul scholes said, He should have taken the second Penalty.

Proudlyngwa:
We also needed to win the Benfica Match to ensure topping the group.

If he likes let him rest, the whole players, with wrong tactics and mindset, we will lose.

I hope the players go into Sunday match with a point to prove.
Chelsea is overdue hammering at the hands of United.
Hopefully Arsenal can do us a favor.

We are beating chelsea, Arsenal are good in beating city, so lets hope they do us good.

Proudlyngwa:
Hope he will not be thrown into a game that will zap his confidence.
He needs gradual introduction to boost his moral and that should be soon, he is seeing any hope for the world cup participation gradually fading.

carabao cup will do.

Bibidear:
Well i think the team selection is ok,the three points was d most important even tho they played bad......they should focus on chelsea's game and get the whole 3points....hope mourinho wont pack d bus

Mou wont park any bus, He's going for revenge mission.

Proudlyngwa:
One match at a time bro.
Confidence is built by winning and building a winning mentality.

I had expected us to use this match as a training for the Chelsea match.

Honestly we need to ditch this 4-2-3-1 style of play, if we are not going to use attacking Midfielders in the - 3-

He ended up using some of the key players.

Yes, but we need to be fresh for the chelsea game, if we want to beat them, that been said, we are going to win come sunday.

Cc Bibidear, andrewsfarm, bettecreature come and contribute

Proudlyngwa:
substitutions

The Introduction of Mykhitaryan added a spark to the game, Herrera added stability and Rashford added Urgency.

Although I would have loved to see Luke Shaw, given some game time. I still think, the substitutions were good enough and brought in Positive impact.


Man of the match.

Despite his penalty miss, and wayward passing, Tony Martial was the only one making the game exciting.

Same here, but His time will come

Proudlyngwa:
Team selection


The United team selection started with Mourinho's Christmas tree formation. It gradually morphed into a 4-5-1 formation with McTominay and Matic acting as combatative Midfielders with Lingard acting in the free role and creativity was from the flanks from Mata and Martial.

It was more of a flat back four, as there was not much wing support from the full backs for most of the match.

Formation Analysis.
Against Oppositions like Benfica at home Man Utd has no business playing a holding midfielder, not to talk of two.

Matic has the Capacity to go Box to Box, and that is exactly the role he should have played yesterday.

Mykhitaryan should have started in place of Lingard as he is more creative.

Martial was used as a left wing forward, which does not work with such formation, since he is not naturally good in crossing or excellent in passing. While he has close ball control, by the time he could get to a shooting position or close to a team mate he was usually crowded out.

Mata still had the same problem with martial, Far out wide and no speed. He would have been better positioned closer to Lukaku.


Ashley Young should have been in place of McTominay to deliver the needed crosses.

All Mou did was to rest some key players for the game against Chelsea, well the most important thing was the 3 points.
