Wan-Bissaka should have crossed that ball himself...

Podence is on...Podence, Neto and Traore...Hmm

Expert17:
The same Martial that disappeared in our last game like a shy fart??

Cavani is a fox in the box....

Are you not seeing Cavani movement since?? Just wait until Bruno finds him

That movement will amount to nothing if he isn't presented with a scoring opportunity...

Shaw on...This man sef.

E go hard for any new player to hold down a regular starting position...Bruno is lucky he came when Pogba was out injured...

Expert17:
After building the play, he will now miss 1 on 1 with the GK.

Is it not better than not being involved at all? Rashford and Greenwood are mostly out wide because we are lacking a striker that can link up play and bring into the box...

It's not about Martial but the role and not every CF can play that role...

Traore pace is frightening see how he left Wan-Bissaka behind for that counter...If him catch Maguire na to leave this bar before I see the end result...

pyrex23:
abrahimovich should get us this neto guy abeg.
havertz na waste of money.

podence and semedo in the 2nd half will spell trouble for u guys.

Semedo is all pace but less of brains...

Prectega:
Agenda must Agend

Are you watching the game at all? If you saw the first half you'd realize that for Cavani to be effective, we need to create chances for him and to be honest, we have struggled to create meaningful chances...

Martial might be terrible in front of goal but he helps with the build up play better than Cavani...

If that ball had reached Traore, I for just go sleep...

Bailly,nice one...

handelex, why e dey surprise you? There's a reason he ended up as a RB...He must have been very terrible that instead of chasing him away, they decided to manage him as a RB...

Mrviktor:
Bissaka.. Pogba and Greenwood on the right.
What do u expect

Pogba is central for the most time...We need Greenwood closer to goal.

Super save from De Gea...

handelex:
Pogba and Matic

Yeah...


Na just Neto and Traore dey but they're causing us problem with their direct running...

We are overloading the left...Our best chance of a goal looks most likely to come from there...

Bruno should be scoring that na.

Our play is way too slow...Before we get into dangerous positions, they have regrouped...

nitrogen:
This Traore dey worry us o

He hasn't scored or assisted, relax, he is not a threat...

Koeman is an idiot for bringing in Busi while Puig is on the bench.

Leeds are destroying West Brom...

Seriously, I don't know what to expect today...

KingAlabi:
Who be those people wey been dey fight me consigning adama traore

This life sweet Sha

Sancho, any news?

I hope Adama starts tomorrow just so I'll read your comment here...Nuno has quality attackers, I'd love to see Wolves take the initiative and attack more...

raumdeuter:
Alaba has complained flor many years that he doesnt want to play LB he wants to play in Midfield but for Austria where he plays midfield he is not very good there

He was disappointed that Kimmich who came into the team after him was given the midfield role

I like Alaba but not as a midfielder and his plays as an LCB is suspect defensively though very good in build up play and passes from the back

His LB position is now threatened by Davies

Thank you. I don't like what I have seen from him in midfield and as a LCB, you're so right with what you wrote...That leaves him as a LB where I wouldn't want United spending money on again.

handelex:
Lol, no vex Sir Pat.. I'll even want us to win the league this season and it's very possible, but I'm taking it one game at a time bro. As for the title, we are already contenders, next few weeks should make it clearer how serious we are.

No qualms...Wolves will be a big test, hope we win.

Botfuss:
I was thinking CB. But then,he would do well in that our midfield.

As a lone DM? I don't think so. We need a DM who is more a hybrid of McFred ala Ndidi, Casmeiro etc...

handelex:
That's why I said I don't like extreme takes. It's just like the far right and the far left, no side wants to listen to the other. They always take up an extreme position. Both the statement Eph12 replied to and his reply are from 2 extreme ends and both are not correct.

Of the perceived title challengers, Manchester City have conceded 12 and Chelsea, 17...The rest hve conceded between 19-20 goals so, I don't see the fuss...Granted we need to improve defensively but then, we aren't doing so bad. If we had won vs Leicester and win our game in hand, we would have been top of the league...

Why will Liverpool with their starting CBs out injured and Manchester City with an aging/injury prone Aguero and Fernandinho as well as injury prone Laporte be considered as title challengers yet we with all our players fit be considered as pretenders?

Is it when Gomez and VVD returns for Liverpool or when Aguero and Laporte are back fit that we will challenge Liverpool and City?

Botfuss:
Why are we not moving for alaba?

To play him where? We already have Shaw and Telles and I don't think he is quite as good as a CB

Also, I think he prefers to play in midfield rather than CB or LB...

handelex:
This doesn't make any sense at all. That's why I don't like extreme takes, the arguments tends to be misconstrued and misunderstood .

Actually, it does make a lot of sense. Imagine a fan saying it's only those who want the manager out that say the team is good enough to win trophies...Read the comment he replied to and tell me you're comfortable with it...

Drabeey:
how? This is more of a jolopy research. Did the judges remit the bribes somewhere? How did they know?

Read please.

In research of this nature, the respondents are not known. It's like when you do a pre-test before the commencement of a capacity building training, you ask the respondents not to write their names so you get proper feedback on their understanding of the subject. If you ask them to write their names, a lot of folks won't participate.

Oasis007:


Shout-out to Bikeman and Co. They won't let us rest with their Marquee Signings of the Season.

From we're winning the League, to we're definitely challenging for the Title, and finally to; let's pray we make Top 4...... LMFAO!

I remember when those guys use to spam our thread with pictures of Kai, Werner, Silva, Chilwell, Ziyech and Mendy every day...

How I wish Chelsea were in Arsenal's position sef. Nonsense and new signings...

CapitalCee:
Some are saying we dont have a team to win the league. But Chelsea, Spurs, Everton, Leicester and Liverpool have the team. Thats a disgraceful talk.

Bruno is by far the best midfielder in the league, we also have Pogba, VDB, Fred, Mata and Mctoms. In attack we have Greenwood, Rashford, Martial and Cavani. In our defence only AWB that doesn't have a competent back up.
Apart from the manager, how is Liverpool patched up defence of Fabinho, Rhys Williams, neco Williams and Nathan Philips better than our? Our Midfielder is far better than their own. In their attack only Sallah is scoring consistently and he is not happy, so why cant we pounce on this advantage?

Chelsea is rubbish this season even with all their signings and Lampard is out of his depth.

City is the shadow of themselves, Aguero is almost done as a top level striker, Jesus is cannot lead a title charge.

Leicester, Everton and Spurs are simply below our standards.

Anybody saying we cant challenge, challenge ooo for title is just a coward. SAF will be turning in his retirement home for this kind of defeatist attitude

Ole fans are weird.

We drew on Saturday and they were out with their useless agenda...At every opportunity, they try to push the agenda that we are not good enough just so their lord and savior, Ole isn't put under pressure to win.

The other day, I did a detailed analysis of the team they claim are title challengers just so they see we are in the mix but no, for them we are not good enough not because it's fact but because Ole must be protected...

Their so called title challengers, Liverpool and Manchester City are faltering but no, we shouldn't take advantage...When you call them mediocres, they flare up.

I watch almost all of Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea, Tottenham, Leicester, Everton and Arsenal games because away from supporting Manchester United, I am a football fan that's why I laugh when people think our attack is wasteful. Liverpool and Manchester City have the most wasteful attack in the league but it's hardly noticeable because they create loads of chances and their defense helps keeps opposition attackers at bay...

Timo Werner was also very wasteful at Leipzig but it wasn't talked about because Leipzig create many chances. At Chelsea, he is now seen as a striker who's not clinical by only those who just started watching him...

Ole fans need to hide their faces in shame. Imagine if we drew against West Brom, you'd find them out in the numbers dropping snide remarks here and there...

handelex:
Bruno: “I was really happy when I got in the dressing room and I saw everyone disappointed and saying the things we had to do better. You are creating a winning mentality and we are not happy with this point."

But Ole fans here will start throwing soft jabs if you point out your disappointment should we loss or draw a match...

Like Bruno, we ain't no mediocres...
