No Chelsea player scored up to 18 league goals but there was a consequence for that.

Since then, they have sold Lukaku and Werner(their 2 best strikers).

I don’t know why you people discount the importance of goals in a team.

You people would rather rely on serial failures like Martial/Rashford to get United back to the top.

City have scored over 100 goals in the past seasons.. they were playing without a striker.. football is a team game.. not an individual game..

Werner wanted to leave, it's not like Chelsea wanted to sell him.. lukaku isn't a team player and toxic like ororo, so he was shipped out.. Chelsea didn't need that toxicity

Oh it's still Ronaldo's fault abi

a big part.. where was he when d squad was bonding during pre season.. if another player was d 1 doing these things .. you guys won't spare him.. it's not like Ronaldo is playing well self.. if he was playing well, I would be begging him to stay

GoddyOra:
And how do you know that most players don't like Ronaldo?
Is Ronaldo the most disliked player among the whole United squad?
I don't think so but maybe you can help tell us how you discovered that every United player dislike Ronaldo as the players' rep you are

The earlier you stop listening to fake stories from click-chasing blogs, the better for you.

the stories are not fake, they are literally coming from, man united reporters, very close to the club.. not any random person..

TrebleChamp:
The bolded should be simple enough na. Since the useless board is not signing players, Ten Hag should do himself a huge favour and leave. But sadly he won't resign because the salary is very good, or he will stay on until he is sacked so as to collect payoff. This club matter don already tire me already

if he bails out, it will be bad on him.. who leaves at the 1st sight of adversity.. I believe d players like him and want to listen to him.. that's why he insisted on uniting the dressing room, that ororo wants to scatter. I just hope 1 club takes him, I will support him from here..

Man Utd have insisted he’s NOT for SALE.

There’s nothing any club can do for a player that isn’t in the market. This is why his agent is asking Man Utd to put a price on him(put him back in the market).

bayern insisted lewandoski is not for sale.. it didn't stop multiple clubs from looking for his signature.. I Ronaldo had an agreement with another club, he wouldn't even show up to Carrington..

ETH would have let him go.

Anthony Martial has to score up to 18 league goals in one season first and foremost before he can have a conversation with Ronaldo.

Ronaldo isn’t undermining the manager. The manager is undermining himself for even having the temerity to think he can succeed with Maguire and Shaw.

Ronaldo’s issue is simple. Give me quality players so I can win for Man Utd. If United cannot provide that, they should let him leave to where he can win. United should enjoy their relegation battle with Fulham and Forest.

united is not holding him.. If an offer comes today.. they'll let him go.. nobody wants an unhappy player.. reason dey are letting players go on loan, even in a thin squad.. martial did not score 18 league goals, but others scored.. no Chelsea player scored up to 18 league goals last season, but they fared better than us.. football is a team game, not individual game.. if Ronaldo leaving allows us to be a better team, fine..

Illimitable:
A player that constantly demands high standards. A player with the best professionalism in the history of the game.

Ronaldo has played in several clubs, he’s never had tantrums with team mates at Madrid or Juventus or complained about the professionalism of his team until his Man Utd’s second stint.

They should let him go. His standards are higher than United’s current standards. There’s no way the best player on the planet should be playing for this shower of shït.

standard this, standard that.. let him take it elsewhere.. oh wait, nobody wants him. A player is undermining the manager, and you keep complaining standards.. I can't wait for martial to send him to the bench.. REAL, Juve, ronaldo has always had problems, but nobody cared as long as they where winning.. we have many issues as a club, but letting ronaldo go, is 1 less at least, for the peace of the dressing room.

GoddyOra:
Let Ronaldo leave and replace him with an injury-prone 35 years old man who have struggled with fitness for the past two years?

How some people reason dey fear me sha

37 year old that wants to leave and most of the players don't like.. Will you rather keep 37 year old ronaldo and unsettle d whole team? Leave sentiments, I'm a ororo fan, but he's not that guy anymore.. when a team loses, what they need to do is regroup and get ready for the next game, not 1 37 year old questioning their mentality and sulking, like he's playing any better..

I wouldn't mind vardy.. The preset players don't like ronaldo..I'll let him leave.. vardy is a short term fix.. it's not like they are available young strikers anywhere.

patrickmuf:
Fernandes was not in the game today. What exactly was his role?

Doing the simple things.. no risk

[color=royalblue]Sancho for Elanga...

ETH fit be another Ole in disguise.....

But make we leave that agenda inside food flask for now[/color]

sancho has been useless.. what do you want him to do..

Karleb:
Keeping Rashford will be similar to how we kept Pogba for 4 years.

Let him go first, we will sign attacker. The guy has been a pain to watch for some years now.

a pain to watch for 1 year... rashford and pogba are not the same.. rashford is ever hardly injured.. get a good attacker that can bench him first before selling..

Rashford ain't going anywhere.. we are complaining of lack of attackers, and you want to sell rashford.. at least with him, you have assurances you'll get chances to miss.. i rather mice sancho self.. That 1 doesn't seem to have the body for this league..

hatakekakashi:
I'm shocked really. Some people even want him gone after one match with players that have probably never played a high line and are getting used to it.

The improvements are even visible sef against a team that dominated us for 90 mins scoring 4 goals few months ago resorting to packing bus .

Brighton didn't play well yesterday.. if they played well, it would have been another 4 nil.. we looked worse self.. our players where nervous, at home you are nervous, so slow.. how are you going to break a defence, while been so slow.. luke shaw was taking 5 touches on the ball before passing it.. they looked confused at a point..

Searchingvictor:
About Sancho ehn. It's better to play him at the LW as he's not effective coming from RW, make Rashford comot that 1st eleven. Now we need a players that will play the RW

sancho played that left wing throughout last season and 3 goals and 3 assist was is output.. stupid rashford will give you better than that with those number of games. At least rashford was missing chances, we did not even see sancho in the match..

Trevor012:
How about your Pernandes?

be honest with yourself.. eriksen is to blame for that second goal.. we couldn't press, because you cannot lead d press with him.. he misplaced passes alot first half.. if Brighton were not sitting back, he would have been dispossessed alot in midfield.. he's someone you bring on late in games, when you're opponent is tired...we need strong energetic midfielders that can actually pass d ball and a holding midfielder... shaw should not see another game, its hard to build from the back with shaw in that backline, because he can't play one touch football.. sancho was invisible.. cannot dribble pass 1 player always loses concentration.. maguire that is been insulted wasn't even bad today..mctominay should leave this club.. we played too slow.. no urgency, we played like we were playing 3 games in 5 days.. no press, no nothing, when we were on the ball no urgency, like d players were confused..


ETH should move lisandro in midfield and build his attack from there .. Fred cannot do that.. lisandro will have a had time against more physical and taller strikers.. he's too short.. forget about timing headers.. if we played a wes ham or most relegation folders they will score.. we are already a short team, and now we have one less tall centreback for corners.

We need to banish shaw from this team.. he's too slow on the ball

Sancho is on fraud watch.. d guy doesn't have d body balance of this league.. he's always bullied off the ball and loses concentration again..

Remove eriksen. You cannot press with eriksen leading the line..

United don't know how to market players.. give them good loans to bundesliga clubs.. if perierra was a Chelsea players he would have 30m minimum

afrodoc2:
You think this club that spends a month for each transfer will sell Ronaldo and get a good replacement in a couple of weeks?
While chasing FDJ and Antony?

Why not buy a replacement FIRST then sell Ronaldo if you have to. You people have forgotten those people we have in charge of negotiations and transfer.

What i don't like is the way people choose their positions based on emotion. It is when transfer window closes and we have sold Ronaldo and Martial is injured without any new forwards before people's eye will be clear. Una go manage Rashford and Tahith Chong until January.

The thing is ororo wants to leave and d club doesn't even want to sell him.. but ororo has been rejected all over Europe, he has no choice..

Illimitable:
Haaland had a very solid start. Even better than the Messi/Ronaldo duopoly. If he takes care of his body as much as Ronaldo does, he’s the most likely to break the record. That young man is a wizard.

I don't think halaand will play as long or rather maintain that level when he hits 32+.. age where ororo and messi where still scoring loads .

eph12:
Good morning

Yes boss

I don't think we should have given ETH full power, this de jong deal says it all.. the club knows the weaknesses in the team, they should have bought players to address those weaknesses, instead of pursuing FDJ all window.. ETH takes 100% blame here, because he's d only reason man united are still hoping this deal happen.. he's d reason we overpaid for martinez.. I don't like coaches as scouts.. it don't usually end well.. identify targets and work with the coach to see if he wants them, or if they suit is style.. currently d only player ETH knows are ex players or people he has seen i eridivise..

Now we need a RB at least 2 midfielders at least 2 attackers(RW and striker).

Defense was d least of our worries.. we could have solved that next summer.. our Defense was always put under pressure because of our midfield, yet we didn't solve that issue..

Make we dey see...

hatakekakashi:
Damnnn!!! So Man U Media quickly tried to cover this up by lying. The rot in the club is the everywhere, it's very sad.

man united media didn't cover anything.. that report was from a fan YouTube channel

timay1:
Smart thinking to be fair.

If the new manager watch him train, he'll probably want to convince him to stay and my guy is confident in himself to be a starter and not a bench warmer to a Spanish goalkeeper that doesn't know the basics of goalkeeping.

So he saved himself all the trouble before it started.


On a side note, I feel if he had stayed, Ten hag would have made him his 1st choice.

if he was so confident, he would have stayed, and see if he ten hag makes him first choice..

Henderson has his strength but he's too erratic.. he launches d ball alot under pressure, instead of passing, has bad positioning. De Gea has his fault, but if we're going to move forward Henderson isn't is replacement..

So make him calm down.. d only reason he hasn't been sold is his 100k per week wages. If Newcastle paid up this summer, he would have been long gone..

I like d guy, but this I disrespect to his teammate and to the club..

Oasis007:
Steve McClaren: "Last season, seasons are gone. The history is gone. It’s past. It’s about the future and we’ve got an opportunity to create that in a certain style and Erik wants to see that happen.

“The vibe that I’m getting from the players: they want it too. They want that discipline, they want to know what their jobs are. They want feedback on it. Because they want to win.

“I’m afraid at Manchester United you have to win.”

ole has suffered.. basically saying he wasn't wasn't coach.

Ellexy:
This is bullshit. Same thing Ole told the players to go out there and enjoy themselves without a proper game plan.

Every good manager out there has a system and every player under plays to the system and plan drafted by the manager.

There's a system, but you are still allowed to express yourself.. players are not robots you program.. you play d system According to your strengths as a player..

Salah, kdb, mahrez, bernado, mane, all played their game albeit in a system, but they are allowed to express themselves..

Rashford had back to back 34+ goal and assist season for us, until last season where he never looked the same after injury.. but this fanbase, is one with favorites.. I reckon if rashford played as many games a sancho had on the left last season, he would have scored more goals self, but watch this fanbase crucify him.. coaches have a system, but you have to build a system to fit the players available at your disposal also.. ETH did not play d same type of system that got him into the champions league semi final in last season champions league, because of the players at his disposal.. he formulated a different system to suit what he had. The main thing is have a system.. under ole we didn't have one at all.. whether for the players at his disposal or not.. klopp isn't using the same system, he used at dortmund.. but 1 thing is common which is high intensity press.. the only purist currently is pep.. and he has d luxury of shipping in an out if the players don't work out..

patrickmuf:
Bro, the team that played yesterday have not played together before so, you don't expect them to be fluid...It's not that hard to figure out that the play was going to ve disjointed but then, you jist want to drive an agenda that doesn't exist...

it's not an agenda.. eriksen will never give you the defensive work bruno will give you.. bruno has made a lot stupid passes when playing for this team, but I've maintained that he does it out of desperation when d team is not creating anything.. you guys will jump on his neck for attempting a through ball if it gets intercepted, even when he was trying to create.. it's d same thing with rashford currently, he's overthinking things hence why he's finding it hard to beat players.. he's always thinking should I pass or run. If you don't let players play their ball they will lose form and confidence

afrodoc2:
He was on 25k in his former club and it was not like there was a bidding war for him. Double his salary and give him 50k. not 78k. Supposed to be is still a risk. Give him 50k and after 2 years of balling you can upgrade him to 100k sef if he is worth it.

He is not the only one. Our squad is littered with mediocre players on huge salaries. That is why we always struggle to offload players, it is not because other clubs have a conspiracy against United.

if his salary was 50k these loan clubs will still tell you to cover the salary.. we are the maga of Europe.

patrickmuf:
Go and check what his peers in Valencia, Sevilla and co earn then come back and edit your post...

See you saying 70k a week isn't huge...No be every club get money like Manchester United oh!

premier league clubs will pay that money.. spanish and Italian clubs don't like to pay.. Brighton are about to sell cucurella, they can collect him on loan and pay his salary.. man united isn't sevilla, when you upgrade from those teams to a big club, you're salarybwill always get a huge boost. Show me a big club that signed a player from a team such as sevilla porto and earn below 70k..

afrodoc2:
He was on 25k weekly at Porto. Why did we multiply his salary by 3 just like that. He should not be getting anything more than 50k so those potential buyers are being smart. He is at best a squad player for a top team or a starter for mid-level team, and he is a full back not a striker.

Zinchenko was on 59k weekly at City with their Arab money and Telles is siphoning 78k at United.

it will always be like that when you sign for a huge club... 70k isn't huge, they just see united as maga..
