Use Greenwood as RWF na. Abi you want the team structurer to change for a bench player like James. Grenwood is already quite good at running those channels and this is where most of his goals come from.

Teams change their structure for talents like Zidane, Platini et al not mediocre talents like James.

Also the team won't be better if James hugs the touchline and keeps spamming crosses into the box. It is a low percentage tactic which is why it has been phased out in modern football.

Your wing forward should contribute with shots, passes, take ons NOT spamming crosses into the the box the way G boys send spam mails.

I think Greenwood is already doing the highlighted and can improve on it with more experience that is why I am not entirely sold on the Sancho deal because I don't want Greenwood rooted to the bench...Let's just settle for a cheaper alternative that will rotate with Greenwood...

If only Barnsley played in the EPL...

Expert17:
Adama Traore price tag is not 108M, so we don't want him

Traore will not MASSIVELY improve us...LMAO

afrodoc2:
He can do a job but he is mainly left sided and I don’t he is as effective on the right, just like Martial who his game most resembles.

Soretire is still very young so hopefully he might be able switch from left to right without drop in quality.

The problem is that the use of inverted wingers means a budding RW should be left footed but left footers are scarce.

Very scarce...There's a general lack of top talents coming through.

You guys claimed it's Sancho or nothing and asked us to mention alternatives, we did without beating around the bush.

Now we are talking Adama and you still expect us to mention other right wingers are if we are arguing with ourselves or against your own point of view.

When you lots were on about Sancho, did you bother to mention other right wingers?

Kimbeast:
You made a reckless statement thinking you won't be called out to defend it. Just accept you made a mistake or you were just typing to be seen as smart when you have no atom of clue about what you were typing about. All these Amala turning and you support Chelsea so mind your business are dumb.

Ever heard of out and out centre forward?

afrodoc2:
Nobody that is ready or even near ready.

It would be interesting to see how the new under-18s play this season and maybe one of the gazilion new attackers that we got might be tried on the right wing.

Soretire has shown some promise even though he is mainly a left winger but has been tried on the right recently. Problem is that he is only 16 and smallish so likely 2-3yrs away from even sniffing the first team.

How about Elanga, can't he do a job out on the right? I know he operates mainly from he from left.

Godx:
No one said anything of such nature. You were the one who boldly proclaimed He is the best out and out winger in the league when no comparism was made whatsoever with anyone. Now you were asked to kindly list those wingers by kimbeast you haven't answered.

I don't have time for this back and forth.

You are a Barca fan and I think Kim is a Chelsea fan...You guys should worry about your respective clubs rather than come here to bore me with repetitive lines...

Over and out...

Godx:
Patrick we are still waiting for the list o

I said Adama Traore is the best out and out right winger, your goons said he isn't but have since refused to drop the names of those who are better. Whose prerogative is it to drop names now? The one that has dropped a name of the player he thinks is the best or the ones that claim he isn't yet are finding it difficult to drop a name?

The weekend we are going to play Wolves, I'll be here to read comments of folks who will be weary of Adama...

Teams pay special attention to him. Most times he is fouled and that's why baba started oiling his hands and wearing body fitted jerseys...

Kimbeast:
I don't grab. You made the distinction by saying "Out and out wingers" which is confusing. All I am asking is for you to name those you term "out and out wingers" in the league for us to know what you mean. It's a very straightforward request.

There's a difference between a RW and RWF...Traore is a RW whilst Salah is a RWF...

Kimbeast:
Kindly name the out and out right wingers in the league let's see.

That's not my call, it's you who think he isn't that should drop names of those who are better than him.

Kimbeast:
Adama suits Wolves’s style. He’ll be a lot less effective if he plays for a team that faces sides that play the low block a lot. His best attribute is his pace,deny him space and he is useless. I don’t think he has enough in his game to be a starter for a top club.

Okay, you have talked about Wolves style, what's Manchester United's style so we can check if he'll fit in or not?

Mention one right winger better than Traore in the league, baba go close mouth but then he keeps chatting absolute bullocks...

Same clown will watch Wolves vs Manchester United and be praying we double mark Traore who is a one trick pony.

Traore isn't a sure starter at Wolves?
No end product yet respected analyst have noted a marked improvement in his end product over the past 2 seasons but one akamu analyst here thinks his opinion is worth any salt. Baba FEM!

spillo1:
LMFAO......Your post made zero sense. Try again

k

spillo1:
LMFAO....... Stop showing your ignorance. It's becoming clear daily you don't know much.

* He is like fellani useful in only one aspect of the game, Beat the fullbacks with his pace and put in a cross. He is one dimensional.

*Adama has 5goals in 100+ Epl appearance.

* He was benched 11times in the league last season. He is not a certified starter for wolves.

K

spillo1:
Please I don't have time for comedy and unserious posts. Our defense last season was among the best in the league,we never conceded more than two goals and last time I checked we conceded the least goals from open play. If our attack wasn't toothless we wouldn't have lost some matches.

Abeg shift, our defence was 3rd best in the league or thereabout and they played together for majority of the games whilst out for their time on the pitch, our attack was right up there. I am certain if you compared our attack with that of Liverpool and City vis á vis minutes played, we best Liverpool but I am not so sure about City.

KingTom:
na the defense beat Chelsea and City 3 times each abi, No be the "toothless" attack

No be small rubbish man dey put up with here.

spillo1:
The price wolves called the last time Liverpool were interested was £75million. In my opinion Adama is not what we need. He is a one trick pony with no end product hell he is not even a certified starter for wolves.

Adama, one trick pony?
No end product?
Not a starter?

Abeg which kind thing person dey read for here?
The problem is that you don't watch Wolves that's why you're spewing the above lies. Wolves have just signed Semedo to ensure Traore returns back to the RW. Even as a wing back, that guy tormented Manchester City. He created at least 3 clear cut goal scoring chances.

In the league, as an out and out right winger, there's none close to him. FYI, Salah and Mahrez are RWFs...

lexy2014:
Who is d govt and who is nnpc? Is nnpc separate from d govt?

Does it make any sense for a government agency to donate funds for a government response?

SeniorGee:
Positive step, what most Nigerians don't know is that the revenue of these government agencies are collected by private companies and then shared with the government, similar to what obtains in Lagos. The govt wants to collect their money themselves. Hope it works because some people are already jubilating say God don butter their bread!!
We just pervert everything in this country. God help us

That's the downside to the whole initiative as those directors will go in there and become part of the rot they were appointed to fix. However, with the deployment of tech (hopefully all transactions should be online) things might be different.

I was concerned when I saw the NNPC and other Government corporations donating huge sums to the FG for the fight against COVID-19. How on earth does a government agency donate to the government? Really crazy, makes it obvious even to the blind that those guys just remit whatever they deem fit to the government that established them.

This move is very welcomed.

Lims11:
We all know sancho is fucking expensive!
But ain't it the scouts abi board's responsibility to find an alternative
Even if he is not up to jadon Sancho's level, buh someone better than what we have and can give greenwood a boost

David Neres is available for around 40milli
Tho I wonder why we aren't considering him, since jadon's price is proving to be an issue

There's Neres, Adama Traore, Coman, Costa etc who are all cheaper options and will easily rotate with Greenwood thus do not pose a threat of stalling the growth of our young gem but no, it's Sancho or nothing...

Zabiboy:

Its obvious some fans dont watch PL news...
The prime minister said today that fans are not allowed till end of march next year..
Now
The league is set to loose over £700m from playing behind close doors..
Man Utd spends at least £5m excluding players wages just for a home match to take place...
Lower league clubs are asking for money from the UK govt just to survive....
If things dont ease by march, fans wont be allowed till next season...
If after calculating the expenses and the loss of revenue due to matches played behind close doors and you still want Man Utd to Pay £108m for JUST ONE PLAYER..
Then i dont know what to tell you
Goodnight...

Coupled with the outrageous wages we pay players making those who are surplus to requirement difficult to offload.

That dude will be shouting Sancho! Sancho!! without looking at the numbers involved. Of all the top sides, only Chelsea is spending and it's expected as they were served a transfer ban last summer and in the same period have made huge profits from player sales.

afrodoc2:
Haba. Get well soon.

You guys shouldn’t take these things too serious.

That is the route to good health and peace of mind.

Thank you Doc. If only the club knows how much they have become a huge part of the lives of most fans, they'd do better...

I am on Twitter reading United fans complaining of our performance thus far against Luton. It's gonna be a long season indeed.

chidexxy007:
lol, the one he has already said the need 4 to 5 games to play at their normal level?

4 - 5 games as if our rivals will be waiting for us to pick form. By season ending, we will start saying if the season started in February we would have at least dragged for the title...We need to start strongly.

I can't waste my time watching drab football...

I am sick right now and I suspect it's down to that horrendous performance we put up against Palace...

melodyogonna:
You don't know more than the people inside, there are reasons for every decision, calm down.

This is how all these pundits has an excellent knowledge of tactics and coaching till they try coaching

Okay o! Against Brighton, let Ole not even try to drop the excuse of fitness again...

Ole is a clown...Start TFM and James against Palace but opt for Wan-Bissaka and Mata against Luton.

The clown claimed we were lacking in match fitness due to lack of adequate pre season games but instead of him to continue with his starting 11 to gain match fitness, baba drops most of them from the squad for today's game and others on the bench...

Against Brighton watch Ole come and say we are lacking in match fitness...

I hate seeing Lingard starting...

Objectivity is the watch word...

If you blamed Mou then, blame Ole now...I hate it when people make excuses for similar scenarios.

At some point I rooted for Mou but when I saw we weren't doing well, I spoke out, it's the same scenario with Ole. I think one too many folks here are afraid of the backlash that comes with switching positions...Come of it, you are not God, if it ain't working say it...
