Let's assume the info is true, so offering Bale + money for Sterling = replacing Hazard. grin You deserve the sorrow your Ole coach is serving you in epl.
I reliably gathered that they will even take the no 7 shirt off ikebe super. He’s in contention for La Liga flop of the season. grin

Chances created:

De Bruyne 40
Sterling 22
Mahrez 20


How are these guys midfielders? These are core attacking players. It is attacking players who should create chances. You guys should blame our attackers, Rashford Martial, James, Lingarda and Perreira
Are you trolling or what? How is KDB not a midfielder?

I hear Madrid want to offer 70m plus Bale for Sterling. They want to replace Hazard with Sterling few months after buying your zanku dancer. shocked

Continue looking for who or what to blame in the wrong places bro. We go dey alright
You asked a question and I answered na.

Lukaku is head n shoulder better than Rashford and Martial as a CF. That Ole believes otherwise is his own problem.

What exactly is your problem? Like really is comprehension that hard for you. You made a post about 2 players (Rashford and martial), I didn't have a problem about the Rashford part of it because it's true but I called you out for the Martial part and showed you how it was a blatant lie but instead of accepting your mistake and moving on you still dey form strong head. Just Get out from my Mention you are confused.
Did Lukaku outscore Martial or not?

Can you really blame Ole for binning lukaku for Rashford? I just saw from a post that from 10th of August to December 16th when Mourinho was sacked last season lukaku only scored 6goals. That's 6 goals in almost 5months. He even also had about a period of 3months were he scored 0 goals from the middle of September to December 1st. Is it not reasonable for manager coming into a club and meeting lukaku in that kind of situation to bench him.
How many did Rashford n Martial score in those period?

Rashford: 10 goals in 2345 mins

Martial is supposed to be the replacement and you know this. Who plays top 9 when both are on the field?
Martial is “supposed” to be the replacement? Martial is still at the club so happened to the supposed replacement? Are we not suppose to be doing better since we have that replacement we wanted?

LMFAO .....This is one of the most stupid behavior on nairaland. Your post has been proven wrong instead of accepting you made a mistake on the Martial part and move on Una go still one claim right and form stubborn head. Can you show us were lukaku outscored martial playing less minutes last season?
If you are not stûpid you will see I wrote Rashford first, how you magically skipped Rashford that his name came first to Martial alone is the stupid behavior of the year.

And Yes Lukaku still outscore Martial.

A midfield of Pogba and McTominay is not creative?
How many match has Pogba started? How many teams still make use of 2 midfielders?

I thought you said Pogba will slow down the pace of the game and he’s not hardworking enough? grin

This is so wrong. I just checked and last season

Martial 10 Premier league goals in 1623 mins. Lukaku with 12 Premier league goals in 2130 mins
So wrong yen yen yen and you conveniently left out Rashford who was the one his replacement at CF.

Rashford 2345 mins 10 goals
Lukaku 2130 mins 12 goals

Lukaku was here starting before JM got the sack.
Lukaku was still here after the Paris miracle when our form nosedived... How many goals did he score in those periods?

So Lukaku would have been converting the ghost chances this yeye team is creating? wonderful

In as much as Ole and his crew made a very bad decision about Lukaku, he wouldn't have made any difference this season and na same una for don dey call am elephant grin
Lukaku actually knows how to score against these small clubs we were struggling against.

The truth is most Utd fans don't like his style of football.

The same thing is happening with AWB.
AWB is known for his tackles, the board got the guy, he's here making tackles and fans are complaining grin

So it's either those buying are clueless or what they want is different from us fans.
Of course, not every fans will like a particular player. If Ole n the clueless board had replaced Lukaku and fixed the midfield, we won’t be having this discussion right now.

Just as eph pointed out, Lukaku was scapegoat by most of the fan base because of the inability of the midfield players. He has his flaws quite alright but he wasn’t the reason why we weren’t scoring bucket load of goals.

Like I said at the beginning of the season, with those stupid transfer decisions Ole made, we are actually worse off this season than we were last season. Getting rid of Lukaku wasn’t the problem itself, not replacing him the midfield is the problem.

The only thing I don’t agree about is some people here trying to use last season alone to judge Lukaku while convinently avoiding the fact that he was our top forward scorer that same season despite playing less mins.

You don come with this your rubbish 2nd again, after finishing second as starting striker, what happened the next season? Was he benched?

That Inter is challenging for league isn't down to Lukaku alone bros
If last season was the reason we got rid of Lukaku, what exactly is Rashford n Martial still doing at this club since Lukaku outscored both of them even while playing less minutes?

He's not wrong. Perreira that was supposed to feed our strikers was useless and couldn't make even an intelligent pass or Fred that finds it hard to carry himself not to talk of ball.
Bro forget, if 2 out of your 3 CM are clueless, you'll need a Messi or CR to be bailing you out of games.
The same Ole was praising these bunch of players talmabout unbelievable quality and bunch of talent. He can’t just turn around and start blaming lack of talent.

Coaching is the problem.

Look at City and Liverpool today, they were both behind for most of the game. But you could see them peppering the opponent goal and you had the feeling that the opponent was going to cave in

When Man Utd was behind, how much pressure did you put on Bournemouth? The match was very comfortable for Bournemouth

Give these same set of players to Pep or Klopp and you will see a difference
We are saying the same thing.

A manager can only improve a player who has the potential to get better and unfortunately, "attacking play" just doesn't seem to be in AWB's dictionary....

On the flip side,we can also say that AWB was bought because he suits Ole's defensive/conservative tactics. grin

Larride, he is part of the problem, don't let those sliding tackles deceive you. Clubs have learnt to keep at least two players on James elsewhere, you have Martial battling with 2 CBs and Rashford closely marked...If you have a marauding wing back, it won't work as their runs forward will free up space for the forwards.

I watched a clip sometime back where they were analyzing Messi's dribbling and goals, most of the time, defenders were caught in two minds whether to track the run of Alves, Alba or Suarez or commit to tackling Messi, that's what movement can do.

Today, Brandon Williams a supposed Rookie came on and started driving our play forward with his runs. I reckon that Martial or Rashford will do better with a player like him dragging defenders with his forwards runs.

Maguire is a mistake I saw coming, they were better alternatives across Europe...
Of course, I understand what you are saying but we don’t play like that. Ole do not set up the team like that. Go look at most of our matches, when any of our midfielders get the ball, their next thinking is to quickly send a through ball to James or Rashford, we lose possession, rinse n repeat.

When we have a change of system, we should see improvement in AWB offensively.

N.B; I was one of those that were vehemently against the signing of AWB but I believe there’s room for improvement.

Our fans are also guilty of dis, everybody knows AWb is only good at defending but our fans still wants us to sign him ahead of munier bcuz munier is aproaching 30yrs lol, and also despite having Dalot and liard, now they are the same ones complaining.

Na why I de laugh when people were saying maguire and AWB are excellent signings after just 3months.
I remember having this argument with someone here. grin

We are supposed to be on the front foot always except against City and Liverpool but we rather strengthen our defense rather than building a fearsome attack. Wan-Bissaka is just too limited to play for a big team, you have to look at Liverpool and City to know the standard. Even Chelsea know what's up, Reece James is getting ready to own the RB slot whilst Emerson is on the left. Those guys make it easier for the strikers as they stretch the opposition defense.

Even if we have Ronaldo and Messi up front, they'll still be overcrowded because there's no supporting cast.
While we agree AWB is limited offensively, you can’t but see that the style of play we deploy is part of our problem. Look at the way L’pool and City plays and you will understand that it’s important that their full back is involved in their game play.

Look at how much Pep has improved Walker, you can see good coaching in display but can the same be said about Ole and AWB?

When we play big teams like L’pool, City n the likes, AWB will shine as we will defend deep and try to hit on the counter, it’s evident in all our matches against big teams this season. The problem starts when we play those that sit deep or don’t leave space for counter and our inept system of play becomes evident.
