GloryIsaac:
Name is Thomas Partey

Woodward won't go for him cos he ain't British

Expert17:
Is that why Rashford always end the season with more goals and assists than Martial for the past 3-4 seasons??

If Martial is good in taking PK, he will surely play

More goals than martial with a difference of just 2 goals every season, mind you Rashford makes more appearances than martial with at least 10 more games. Hope you don't have any agenda against martial

Expert17:
So funny whenever I see statement like this
" Martial will bench Rashford at LW"..

Martial is in form this season and Rashford is playing rubbish, at the end they have the same goals with Rashford having higher assist ....make una calm down, it's just injury effect

They have the same goal but how many goals does rashford have from open play? Baba has scored 6 penalties and martial has none

We are doing more of the passing out from the back now. It has nothing to do with counter attacks.

I am talking about situations like goal kicks when the 2 teams are set. Instead of launching the ball into the opposition half from time to time De Gea and his defenders now insist on playing out from the back even when they are in obvious trouble.

if you expect de gea to launch the ball, who will win the headers and secondly I don't think united will win the second balls.

afrodoc2:
I don’t even know when this passing from the back by force craze started.

It seems the good results earlier deceived Ole into thinking his players were Brazil 1970 standard.

we have been passing from the back since the beginning of the season, it just became more obvious because we don't play counter attacks like before.

Read to understand and join a meaningful discuss. Don't read for argument.

How is the 4th position treating you?

why you sef reply am

Who else notice how tired fernandes is? I fear for the guy next season.

CapitalCee:
What make you so sure we are going to win the FA Cup, I am not discounting the trophy. Its important but I mean, that's not the end of the world. The most important thing this season is to play champions league next season that's very very crucial. Next season we can have a go on trophies. Who told you that Ole doesn't want to win trophies? This case is completely different from that of Poch. Poch was very unserious with the cup games, even Europa, but Ole wanted to win all trophies as you can clearly see this season, semifinals in 2 domestic cups and almost through to europa semifinals, that he didn't succeed in league cup and Fa cup doesn't discount that fact. Europa is still there we will have a go and see how it pans out. BUT UCL is a must next season.
When Klopp joined liverpool, Rodgers has already messed up the season in terms of league position, he simply exited all domestic cups and focused on europa in order to get into UCL, unfortunately Sevilla beat them. The following season, without any European distraction, he again exited all cup competitions and focused on top 4, he got it and reached UCL final the following season while still holding on to the top 4 to remain in UCL which they ultimately won last season. That liverpool is this good, is because of their exposure to UCL which made them more exposed to high profile pressures, and world class teams, it attracted world class players to them, and boosted their confidence. Do you think VVD, Allison, Fabinho and Salah wouldn't have chosen another destination if klopp has expended his energy and won FA cup while finishing 5th or 6th? The reason this our team buckle under little pressure is because most of our players are not yet exposed to enough high profile matches and atmospheres, most are still inexperienced and buckle under pressure. Why did the board sack LVG on the day he won the FA Cup? FA cup, league cups etc will naturally flow when we become solid, for now while we try very hard to win the trophies, our priority is to cement our place among the elites first and stop making trips to Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Austria and Slovakia every season.

Chill bro, we need trophies but this is not the last FA cup to be played.

This deserves likes na

Before it was bruno should keep it simple like pogba now it's bruno should learn from KDB
All is well

elampiro:
He was a better attacking left back under Gaal

I don't understand so shaw's recent impressive attacking display is due to van Gaal's input?

Leyqute:
The attackers and taktiks

taktiks

elampiro:
Go and watch Shaw under Gaal.

he was hampered by injuries na it's not enough to draw conclusion

elampiro:
Glad no one is talking about attacking improvement from the fullbacks as guys here were shouting after just two games in the continuation of the season after lockdown.

I must say shaw's attacking play has really improved, what will you factor it down to?

Lana1:
I cant over emphasise how happy i am with Rashford's goal.

Love seeing forwards pull off intelligent plays like that.

Rashford of 2 years ago would have smashed it at the defender

Rashford stan

handelex:
How is he smallish? He's 184m[6.0ft] tall.

he meant smallish in physique, the dude actually looks short ooo

Athletic passion merchant
But where's the lie though

BlueAngel444:
I know today will bring so much joy to me. With Madrid winning today therefore winning the league and with man united losing today therefore losing top four. Ahhhh a night to remember.

If united should lose today trust them to unleash anger on your team on sunday, choose your happiness wisely

ovoP:
Lazio lius Alberto .. not bad for a Bruno deputy

he is a deep play maker we have that in pogba.

I stan my number 10

yet he has more assist than any of your players with just 11 games, pathetic

afrodoc:
He was already getting more direct before he left City. In his last season with the youth team he had 20 goals and 7 assists in 33 games.



He is capable on both wings. That solves a number of problems for us.

let's hope Woodward pulls the deal off.

afrodoc2:
Handelex, these are 2 videos showing Sancho when he was at Man City. The boy was good and terrible.

Credit to Dortmund they polished his game and smart enough to shift him to the right, he has become more direct ever since.

Khaytunechi:
This is the most sensible thing to do. I see guys saying we shouldn't change anything, but I'll rather we rest players than have someone like Pogba pull his hamstring then be out for two weeks. Out of the top 5 teams, I think we're the one who has rotated the least so far. Our players are not robots, and history should serve us right - towards the end of last season, we were flying high until injury kicked in and everything went to shiit. If not because deputy players like Mata, Perreira, Lingard are irredemably useless, we really should be resting some of the guys in the midfield and up front at least for an entire half. Since we can't do this, our best bet is to finish games off early, reduce the tempo and make wholesale changes early enough. This race would go down the wire, and if we would be needing point(s) in our final game against Leicester, I would want a fit 11, not a team assembled with the Perreiras and Matas because Rashford and Pogba are injured

we have rotated the least but united is the only team that has made use of 5 substitutions every matchday since the restart, so that counts as a bit of rotation in some ways.

Lana1:
Leyqute it's all taktiks

yeah it was taktiks to let them have 88% ball possession

Expert17:
No body can bench Rashford @ LW

just let sancho come na hin go chop bench

Pogba don dey gbese for dressing room Big credit to ighalo he is making the dressing room lively.

Expert17:
Aston Villa boss Dean Smith : Astonvilla will target Man Utd weakness tomorrow.

Maguire and Lindelof abeg protect De gea from shots

If only they targeted the weaknesses of the other 19 teams just maybe they won't be in relegation places

[quote author=Ravioli post=91412559][/quote]please which competition are they providing for bruno

Expert17:
Yh
That's why I don't get the complains

Illaramendi, Martinez, Alonso and Arteta

Exactly, it's not like Herrera came from la masia where you expect him to be playing penetrative passes

afrodoc:
Do you mean the same Basque region that produced Gaizka Mendieta, Julen Guerrero, Mikel Arteta, Xabi Alonso?

Apart from Alonso that you list above, who else can compete with Xavi, silva, Iniesta in terms of technical attributes? And how many Basque players are better than players from Catalonia or Madrid( technical wise)

Chrisus:
Herrera might just be the least technically gifted Spanish midfielder I have ever seen play.

For a country that produced the likes of Xavi, Iniesta, Fabregas, Isco, Thiago, David Silva, Busquets, Santi Carzola... Omo dem too much

Herrera comes from the Basque region in Spain, their style of football is different from the rest of Spain it's more of direct football similar to the type of football played in England.

Since Greenwood hit form some people on Twitter are saying we don't need sancho.

Expert17:
I wonder what Edwin Vandersar is still doing at Ajax.

He should take the role of Director of Football @ Old Trafford

Woodward isn't ready to relinquish decision making to another person, forget about director of football for now, The Glazers have given Woodward enough power to do whatever he likes.
