nitrogen: Lol, I heard that OGS is considering old players too for immediate success, on the back of what happened yesterday. But Mou like mercenaries. Hahahahahuhuhuhuhahahahaha, back to square one?
Kosi bi e she fagbo to, e le fagbo to Baba Fela (you no fit smoke juana reach Baba Fela).
Afrodoc2, the Glazers have won the superbowl with their NFL franchise do you see them replicating that at United by spending big money just like they did with Tom Brady?
Leyqute: So, no one realized that was a possibility when we stupidly dropped points vs Everton?
Mentioning the Everton match Dey vex me again sef. I wanted them to sack Ole and all the players after that game. Especially the defense. They are all fooooools. Useless people. If we blame coach for the first 2 goals because he was outsmarted, conceding at the last minute, after a new sub was made to help with the defense is unforgivable. Why was Maguire playing all of the opponents onside? I feel like flogging him after that match.
Make I cool down.
Kumbayah.
Cool down bro! The draw is painful to be honest and I'm not pained like before. I remind myself that players easily move on from defeats or draws more than fans themselves the next thing you know the players are in the bar/club chilling while the fans are wallowing in anguish.
Botfuss: Don’t raise your hopes fellas, the red card was the major difference. Everton weekend, we’ll be back to our normal self.
Stop trying to downplay the victory, give credit when necessary, if it was easy teams will be winning 9-0 with red cards. Only 2 teams have managed to win 9-0 and United did it twice.
As for me o I be ole out forever and ever, even if Ole wins the Champions league or The treble I will still remain Ole out, saying it with my full chest
Everyone should follow suit: "I be Olein" or "I be Oleout" Let's stop the confusion
afrodoc2: I wonder why you guys dey always fight everyday. Here on the fence fresh air is always blowing.
Boss man you no dey any fence oo, your position on Ole is clear, you feel he isn't good enough the only difference between you and Ole outers is that you don't engage in endless arguments.
Leyqute: That’s different. When you are around the opponent, mark who you’re supposed to mark. make the run. Press the opponent. It’s not as hard as you think.
Don’t Bruno, Cavani get similar instructions? Still, they contribute more to the team’s defenses. Bruno actually presses more when Cavani is on the pitch.
It's not as easy as True or false bro, it's more complex than that, what if they are adhering to tactical instructions to stay higher up the pitch will you term that as selfishness?
I have seen occasions where Ole deliberately told Rashford and Martial to stay higher up the pitch especially when we want to counter.
eph12: So it's less about the players themselves and more of the highlighted? So it's not that the players are bad or lack the quality? So it's not like the defenders are doing lesser than other top defenders in the league?
Maybe maybe not but how often do you see Stones make a mistake this season compared to Maguire?
eph12: Those top defenders lfc and City signed will go on injury and the team still won't be drinking goals like that. Our defenders have more defensive work to do than other defenders in top clubs. Check out defensive stats on the epl website, you will see that City and LFC defenders are almost never featured in the top 20 for each defensive stat.
I think Patrick already answered that question already.
It has more to do with coordination and organisation of the defence and team's play especially when we press, teams like City and Pool have good organisation and well defined style of play that when you remove one player from City's team another player comes in and does the job perfectly like the other player never left.
Some of you will bring opinions of fans from another site and make it look like facts, it's like taking opinions from Nairaland to another site and you are like "see this person said it so I'm right."
Very interesting Pogba is so hardworking even his body language when we concede is everything. Cavani na mad workaholic, I also noticed this sense of multilingual on the pitch, from Spanish to English to Portuguese. Football is a crazy sport
afrodoc2: He needs to start McFred against Liverpool's energetic midfield and start MatPog against Sheffield's potentially bus-parking style.
Bruno on the bench against Liverpool. Start either Pogba or VDB in attacking midfield. The defense picks itself with the only question being Bailly or Lindelof. Cavani CF, Martial LWF, Rashford RWF with Greenwood and Amad on the bench.
patrickmuf: Dortmund lost yesterday...If they fail to qualify for the UCL coupled with the COVID-19 pandemic, then they'll beg to have us come in with a bid for Sancho...$50m or less...
what makes you think only United will be going in for him?
Let me explain it better, He is young hasn't played many senior matches hoping he comes good in the future. While we wait for him to develop into a good player what will happen to that right wing?
