I am an acolyte at the temple of Lord Ororo but any United fan that thinks he is our greatest ever player needs to educate himself about our history.

afrodoc2:
He is not. When clubs consider their greatest ever player they consider what the player did while playing IN THEIR COLOURS and not what they did before or after or what they did for their national teams.
Our original trio of Ballon d'Or winners Law, Charlton, Best (The Holy Trinity) are greater United players than Cristiano Ronaldo.

How's Ronaldo the greatest player in United history?

Anyways trolling Argentina aside, i think its high time we reviewed how SAF failed in his transfer dealings.

We were in pole position to sign Modric back then. But because of wages we didn't and ended signing Kagawa instead as Modric went to Madrid

Modric went to Real because Spurs were being difficult selling to us and preferred to sell abroad. once Real became interested we didnt stand a chance.

He also didn't do much in trying to keep C.Ro. That incident with Beckham. Etc.

He did everything possible to keep CR7 but the kid's mind was mad up that he wanted to go to real and he begged SAF to let him go to Real. SAF even uttered that he wouldnt sell that mob a virus due to Real Madrid's interested. He then convinced his to stay once more season and that he will sell the next season but only for a world record straight cash fee of £80m. CR7 stayed and SAF kept his word. I dont think you can say he didnt do much to keep him.

We've always had this knack for letting the very best players slip through our fingers!!

I dont think anyone has ever painted SAF as being perfect because he wasnt He made huge mistakes in selling Stam and also letting Pogba go at such a young age. Beckham wasnt a mistake. It was time to go and the club moved on without them.

By Mjolnir, if we manage to lay our hands on SMSavic, we've made it in life. Such an incredible player.

An Arsenal fan talking about woes...Las las you go dey alright.

dopeJemi:
Exactly my point, Pogba is not our problem, he is far from it sef, can't we see that the only player who doesn't get criticized is the player who doesn't play to Mourinho's tactics

I repeat, Mourinho is our biggest problem.

I admire your confidence but I don tell you say this na arrogance without basis.
Where are the unknown gems our scouts have unearthed for us in the last five years?

eph12:
At least 5 positions require new blood for this team to be competitive again. That's 5 first 11 positions and not just bench warmers. Do you know what it means to bring in 5 new players to join the first team? That's half of the first team

Zidane hasn't proven he can build a team from scratch. Who are the players he bought for Real and they're doing very well?

Lana1:
So we also wan buy Wonder Woman too?

sinizia:
How can your only issue be his age? Did you read what displayed on the screen when he scored his first goal? It read "2 goals in 7 matches".

Take note that some of those matches he started but didn't finish, while some he came in as substitute. Imagine after paying not less than £90m and between 350k - 400k (he earns around 320k at Madrid) plus bonuses, Bale will now play a total of 7 matches due to injuries and loss of form. Mu questions are who will take us to the finals or semis if our world class winger is injured? We go back to using Mata on the wings and hope he becomes a Robben? Or UEFA will wait for us till Bale is fit for us to continue?

If Madrid didn't have so much quality and fit players like Ororo, Marcelo, Ramos, Modric, etc., will they reach the final for Bale to make an impact?

We shouldn't buy a player that spends more time injured than playing, we are not a pensioner club. We already have injury prone players like Shaw, Bailly, Jones, Rojo, and we want to add Bale to the list and end up selling more shirts off him than winning titles with him? Bale is injury prone. He's too costly with so much baggages for us to buy him. We need fit quality players that will help us win matches not sell shirts.

RuuDie:
Is it just me or...? I think DDG would have stopped that overhead kick goal. I mean, the goalie just dived without stretching his hands out!!?

SailorXY:
so how many UCL has Klopp won?

Klopp made no improvement on his two full seasons on the EPL log yet.
Most people you've spoken to can see the next EPL winner based on what?

This one is just moving about speaking to dunces

patrickmuf:
Maguire? Have you watched him? He might not be world class but don't jump out of the context, I said when compared to Smalling...
Maguire is better than Smalling.

patrickmuf:
Smalling played more? Yes...

Maguire is light years ahead of Smalling.

To be honest, Martial ain't helping himself either. Deschamps made it clear he picks Dembele, Fekir, Thauvin and Mbappe ahead of him because they can play multiple Positions.

Martial should develop his Skills, he shouldn't limit himself to a left Winger. He should be able to play multiple Positions like Mbappe. Even Nani was a Joy to watch on either Wings. Martial is talented, but kinda lazy to develop himself into a world class Player.

Ronaldo wasn't made by any Manager, he made himself what he is Today with dedication, commitment and enthusiasm for the Game. Martial can learn from Ronaldo, makes him is Mentor and moulds himself to become another Ronaldo for United.
