I told them to wait for Garnacho to come in and see how he will handle his wing. They became believers after the encounter.

That right wing is still the same as last season. Just a change of who's handling it.

Bruno has decided not to leave that bar he set.

Antony defends better than Rashford. He presses better too. But his attacking game is a lil bit below Rashford and his goal contribution is miles off.

The annoying thing is that he has everything to get to that level.

There were several instances yesterday where he could’ve gotten an assist, or scored, or created a big chance.

Can you believe we didn’t score or create a chance from this instance? (Attached Pic)
You know Rashford can never defend, lol...
Players that build their edge on speed rarely do anything but wait for their moment to sprint. 🤣
Mbappe and Rashford have that in common.
I believe that is why ETH brought Weghorst to do that work for him, since Martial can't also do that.

You can say all you want to say about antony, most here would support you, but you can never shiite on his defensive work, that being said, antony is not a player best suited for counter attacks, you want the best for him, you make the players around him tick, his wing back, the nearest central midfielder must be always alert to receive passes (mostly short) and also to swap positions with him

Yesterday was probably the best I've seen him being a constant threat against the opponent backline, the problem we have with him is the same we had with van de beek, and guess what that's the style we're gradually going to turn to by the time we fully grasp ETH style

Short/direct passes, constantll movement, hold up/link up, counter press, pinning of opposition into their half, you'll see when he gets the new central midfielder and deep lying playmaker he wants

That's why he keeps playing eriksen, because has the quality to do what he wants, he's just not aggressive enough

Antony will get better and I see amad slotting in perfectly also(he plays similarly to antony, he's just more direct than him)
Remain blessed! 👌🙌✔👍

Antony is still our best option on that right side for the next few games IMO.

Pellistri is not there yet and we can’t play any other person there.

Plus he’s the only left footed right winger we have. So his ceiling is very high when compared with other options.

It’s just annoying that he’s underwhelming.
Yea, I believe once we get a better option, he will be forced to step up or step down. grin

You see Malacia and Luke Shaw?
Dalot and Wan Bissaka, etc

Main24

Believe me, I can see limitations in Weghorst’s game. There are things he does for us exceedingly well at the moment (holdup, link up and team play) better than any striker we have.

But if he gets clear chances and doesn’t score, we will criticize him for it if it goes on for too long.

Antony’s uselessness is going on for too long. Unless he improves, I don’t see the criticism stopping. He’s been in the team for longer. He should be playing better.
Relax, Weghorst has only played 2 or so games...time will tell where he goes from here. I wish him all the best.

As for Antony, nah it's just an agenda bro. That guy is taking care of that position so well for Man U.
Aside Rashford, Martinez, Case, Varane, every other Man U player right now is on the same level.
They are doing the basics. Pick on all of them. No agendas bro grin

Anyways this is my thought though, what do I know?! 😂😂🤣

Main24. This isn’t hate. Antony should be delivering better results for Utd.

Most of our chances yesterday fell to him- including one big chance, and he didn’t score one goal. If Martial was on the pitch instead of Weghorst, we wouldn’t have scored that second goal.

Learn to differentiate hate from criticism.
If you say better results I agree with you.
Every Man U player should do better. Coming here to pick on a player is what I am against.

Weghorst? did you see the pass Antony gave to him and he missed?
We can argue both ways whether Weghorst is good or not. I have not seen any brilliant plays from him.

Now does that mean he is a bad player? No.

In the game against Arsenal, most people were saying he didn't play anything...I didn't see him either.
Now remember the human brain is tricky 😁. He probably did well, but I just didn't see it.

Yet, I won't pick on him because all Man U players needs to deliver better.

If you remove Weghorst, who can do better there?
Not to mention, he is doing better than me that ones to criticize him. 🤣

In summary; because I expect someone to do better and he doesn't does not make him a bad player especially when he is doing better than me.

Can you remember any quality chance Antony has created since August last year? I'm sure you won't think too deep if I'm asking same for Garnacho
The human brain is tricky. Once you dislike someone, you will only see what he did wrong. The same happens when you like someone. 😒

Yesterday who shot the ball that Weghorst tapped-in for his goal?
What of the pass Antony gave Weghorst and he missed?

Do you know how many chances Garnacho misses just because most times he chooses to go forward instead of passing backwards?

ETH favors playing from the back, that is why he bought Antony. Antony will always go backwards, that does not mean he is not playing that position well.

All that being said, I also want him to try beating opponents, but that is not his style of play for now.
Simply because he is not as aggressive as Ganarcho upfront does not mean he is a bad player.

Let me ask you, if you remove Antony, who in current Man U's squad can replace him?

What’s with the hate and agenda?
Antony is good and always plays well.
Recency bias and humans, being insatiable is the problem here.
Antony has improved that wing so much that people want more.

Does anyone remember how terrible that wing was before Antony started playing for Man U?

After reading what most of you fans wrote just because Man U lost 3:2 to Arsenal, all I have to say to you is: shame on you!.

This is ETH and Man U's poorest form. The upward curve is only going to get better for him with time.
This is Arteta and Arsenal's best form after so many years.

Don't get carried away with Man U's recent wins, including over Man city.

Man U is still in it's poorest form under ETH. The growth and squad depth has not started.

I feel Arsenal fans should really be worried.
If this disjointed Man U can hold you down to 3:2,..what then happens when Man U is in form?

Dude, you just did what my co-worker did. You twisted the narrative to insinuate I must be the problem and the one causing these men to actively step out on their vows and wives. What you did here is also similar to what folks do to victims of sexual assault and rape, they blame the victim and leave the rapist alone.

If you're familiar with my posts you would know that I am not a fan of indecent exposure in dressing. Secondly, a successful relationship with God matters to me more than marriage and kids do, because I want to hear Him say, well done, you can come on in, when my earthly life is over.

So, for that singular reason I am mindful of my speech, conduct and how I generally live. This is not a me problem, it is on them. The article validates my own experience, the fact that your flatmate hasn't had the same experience as mine, doesn't mean I am lying or the cause of other people's poor choices and bad behaviour.



Doesn't this contradict your first point about dressing and conduct? I am a female woman, not a transgendered one. Beautifully created and well endowed (without meaning to sound arrogant) but I don't let that get to my head, neither do I flaunt my wares for public consumption.

I don't need to slap a man in public either to get my point across. The caliber of married men who have chased me exude too much confidence, fine boy-ness and masculinity from head to toes, for me to disrespect them like that. They are not from the streets, neither am I.

You made very valid points, however the text in bold cracked me up big time.

Try being a single and hard working woman with a moral compass in Lasgidi, earning a good living through honest means, then you will quickly learn that it is not necessarily about women embracing hard work and good morals. Rather, it is about the randiness, lack of self control and selfish desires of men.

The article/original post didn't lie about the shenanigans of married men in Naija. All the times I have been pursued by married men in Lasgidi I was minding my business and staying in my lane. They love to claim that single ladies are the ones who chase them (which may be true) but that hasn't been my personal experience.

As previously stated, most see single women as their private playground where anything goes. I once confided in a co-worker about the alarming frequency at which married men chase me and she suggested I pray it must be spiritual, if I am mostly attracting married men.

I told her to hold it there! There is nothing spiritual about this and nothing wrong with me either, there is just an unfortunate rise in the number of married men who have no qualms with side chics and exploring their polygamous nature while trampling all over the institution of marriage...... like the article said.

How many times have men told us on this forum that they are polygamous in nature? And you say it's easier to gain access to our bodies than your gender's? Don't make me laugh Naz.
