I am not even holding brief for Rashford but it is very irritating when people just come and start dropping imaginary info to buttress their points.

When Rashford was been compared to Mbappe i was one of those that didn't support it. He is not on that level, but he is also not a bad player for his age.

Bad coaching, lack of quality seniors in the team, and too much pressure/hype too soon have stagnated his progress.

Watch this space, if in 2yrs time Greenwood starts to struggle the same people hyping him now (and who were hyping Rashy 2-3yrs ago) will turn on him too.

Asking young players to do too much too soon in a system that lacks quality seniors and quality structure is a mistake. Mentioning players like Mbappe, Maradona that did it while young does not disprove this fact. Those are outliers and not the norm.

How old is Rashford sef?! He's still a young Chap, he's not peaked yet, so why the Fuss and reeling out of unjustifiable Stats to counter real Facts?!

Rashford is suffering of same thing that happened to Januzaj. But we should understand he's 21yrs old, thus he can remodel himself to perhaps a deadly Winger.

Wetin Musa no go see for Gate...... Burster also bursted?! LMAO!

Chelsea Thread though..... From 69 to free Nipples?! LMAO!

Man was mad at Rashford for that second miss. Looking forward to the West Ham match.

Yes..... Onto the next Match. I hope Martial and Pogba are fit for the Match.

That's on Woodward though, but OGS won't pull a Jose on the board... rather smile and act like everything's ok..

OGS facial Expressions during Matches said it all. He knows all is not good. He clearly knows the Team needs to be fixed. He's a bit relieved during the Astana Game, coz he was happy Greenwood scores.

Is he gonna get it right? Hopefully with more Signings in the Summer, coz it's apparent Board won't sanctioned any Deal in January again. The last time they did, it turns out to be an ever regrettable decision.

United is in safe hand, and I won't be amazed if OGS starts making unexpected Decisions with Players selection.

The 3-5-2 formation looks good in theory but there are a couple of issues with it.

1) It is a difficult formation to master especially for those who never played it before or those whose intelligence is not top notch. Martin Skrtel recently left his club after a few weeks because of his inability to master their 3 man defence.

2) It depends on wing backs who are very creative going forward. Without attacking wing backs the system would be a dead end and we will struggle even more to score goals. Apart from old man Young i don't think we have the full backs to make it work IMO.

You are right Doc, but as a Dude already mentioned - Dalot will definitely do a good Job as a Wingback. Shaw?! Maybe, but it won't be bad to experiment Lingard again as a Wingback.... Lol!

Eph has said it all, you can't ever pleased United Fans. The Reason is clear, we are used to winning Titles and dominating Games until SAF left.

However, we do forget that we've tried out LvG and Mou in the process of rebuilding to no avail. EPL Matches are becoming unpredictable. Teams are getting stronger Season by Season.

Who would have predicted a new Comer to beat the defending Champion?! Who could have predicted Chelsea to massacre Wolves at their Home?!

So far, we are well placed on the Table, thus what matter most is winning and keeping the Momentum.

I stand with Peeps backing 4 - 3 - 3 Formation chaired by Afrodoc2. I really believe it's better way to balance the Team style of play. Pogba, McSauce and Fred are needed in the Midfield, with Andreas and Matic on the Bench as Backups.

Though left to me - I would have suggested 3 - 5 - 2 Formation with the below Lineup;

________________ De Gea _______________

Tuanzebe______ Maguire _______ Lindelof

AWB __ Fred __ McTom __ Pogba __ Shaw

________ Greenwood ___ Martial _________

Subs: Romero, Rojo, Perreira, Gomez, James, Matic, Rashford.

A Quick Reminder;

Martial is the designated No. 9 for United this Season. He's the chosen One to the lead the Attack not Rashford. The latter was leading in the absence of Martial, and so convinced I am that Greenwood will be the 2nd Choice soonest.
