eph12: Ehen na, it takes a blend of average players and better ones to make a team. My problem now na mourinho. |

slimghost:If it's true that Lukaku did that, then the club should just cancel the contract and send him away. C'est fini! |

elampiro: He had these players when he faced other top teams (sometimes average teams) away in the past and the idea didn't change. |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 2:56pm On Dec 11, 2017 |
elrony:I think you're right bro! There is no any world class striker out there now. We just have to make do with what we have but definitely not with Mourinho in charge. That man will ruin United before they realize it. |

raumdeuter: Why is it hard to accept the truth that Lukaku was a complete shyte in that match? Old man Ibrahimovic made more impact in the limited time he played. The clear cut chance Lukaku missed came about from Ibrahimovic's ability to retain the ball under tight marking in inside City's box. Ibrahimovic controlled the cross, retained the ball while ensuring body balance, and then played back to Mata who lobbed it over the wall to Martial. If it were Lukaku in same position as Ibrahimovic, he would have made Mata to look like mumu there. Lukaku would never have thought of controlling and passing back to Mata. Chances don't come when some members kill clever build up play, or running with the ball into the bush during counter. 6 Likes |

Skimpledawg: I don't know how that kind of a thing can happen to a professional player. That to me was worse than the missed clear cut chance and two Assists. It is the worst move in the EPL this season. I knew Lukaku didn’t have a good first touch and he had a bad close control. But to have a self accident like that, all alone with the ball, is a calamity. |

elrony:Lol, see the truth of the matter is I don't see any difference between Rashford/Martial and Lukaku striking for us apart from the physique. In fact, Rashford/Martial could have even done better as a striker. It takes a stupid man doing the same thing the same way and expect a different result. Bench Lukaku and try other guys, it could be a good tactics at the end. With regards to his anti-sportmanship, it's better off for United to cut loose than ruin the brand cos of a player. It happened to Evra, he was fined by UEFA and his club canceled his contract. Breaking bottle on someone's head is even a worse offence. |

elampiro: He had a very terrible game yesterday no doubt. So did the rest of the team minus De Gea nobody was exceptional. |

The Problem with United ain't actually Lukaku rather the Idïot Mourinho. I'm beginning to dislike him, in fact I want him sacked at the End of the Season. The Idïot is killing the Players' Morale, he's turning them to Cowards, that only roar Louder when facing small Teams. Meanwhile...... RIP to Chelsea in advance! 1 Like |

eph12:Because his position is very critical for a team to maintain stability and it takes a more clever player to handle it. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 3:18pm On Dec 11, 2017 |
elrony: The rest of the team did not have a terrible day. You guys should stop saying this just to cover up for Lukaku. The guys were doing well, more than Arsenal’s match, until Lukaku gave an Assist. We were already going to half time. Rashford still scored (Lukaku would have missed that) and scores stood at 1-1. Lukaku had a great chance to set up a clear cut chance, he conceded a self accident. Then game a second Assist and finally failed to level. Ibrahimovic did better, Rashford scored, Martial played with confidence. Valencia and Young were doing okay. Herrera worked hard. Lukaku was on a calamity of his own. 6 Likes |

elampiro: You know ball! I still cant believe that any human being is actually defending Lukaku after the calamity performance yesterday. chai! |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elrony(m): 3:21pm On Dec 11, 2017 |
elampiro: Elampiro yes lukaku was a calamity of his own,very terrible. Tell me any half decent thing we played as a team yesterday, except equalising? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 3:23pm On Dec 11, 2017 |
What makes United what it is today, is the quality of football which reflects in all the players and equivocally forms the brand. Now, this brand is being destroyed by Mourinho and the stakeholders are watching. But one thing is very certain, by the time there's unrest at Old Trafford and a drastic drop in revenue, they would be able to look inward and understand better. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 3:25pm On Dec 11, 2017 |
raumdeuter: Watch that video again, it would have made more sense for Lukaku to count two steps forward to head that ball away instead of clearing into danger zone with his left foot. Matic uses one foot, but he uses it to work like he has two. The other player I could be scared of making a similar mistake is Valencia. But so far he has done well. Why did he even use his weak foot in such spinning ball into out box? Head away or use your left or use your left to turn the ball into corner kick. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 3:28pm On Dec 11, 2017 |
elrony: We played far better than we played against Arsenal and Liverpool. There were some calculations and instances to go forward to threaten. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Skimpledawg(m): 3:29pm On Dec 11, 2017 |
elampiro:It was just too bad. Immediately my eyes saw that, my support for him just reduced by 50%. Dude is out of form |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 3:29pm On Dec 11, 2017 |
IFearGod:Nah the midfield is the most critical in my opinion |

elampiro: We played far worse than those two games, considering we were away from home, there's no way you you'd paint it otherwise. Like I said earlier in my posts, I won't blame our players for yesterday rather the coward manager |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by mcdreeezy: 3:45pm On Dec 11, 2017 |
Oasis007: LOL. If you're a United fan and you don't know this, then sorry oh. I see a lot of people cursing Lukaku out and I'm just laughing. If you've been watching football and following the EPL for some years now, you should know Lukaku. And if you know him, you should know he's not all that. You should also know he rarely ever scores in big games. Therefore you should not be surprised. The biggest problem in Man Utd now is Jose Mourinho. I like Man Utd but they got the wrong coach. JM is too defensive-minded for a club like Man Utd! Some pipu no dey hear. I'm happy tho, that Pep and his good football are winning in the EPL and I hope they win the league. You can imagine parking the bus whenever you meet a top six side. It's not as if you don't have the players to attack. You do, but the mentality always is first of all, not to lose. Instead of thinking about how to win. We know Lukaku is average but yesterday, he was a victim of JM's defensive tactics. Simple. The point I'm trying to make is I agree with you. Jose Mourinho, not Lukaku, is the problem. Anybody that's not seeing this is not seeing well. 2 Likes |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 3:49pm On Dec 11, 2017 |
eph12:Yes, the midfield is the most critical but when you are deficient in the midfield like the case of yesterday, a good striker bails the team out in that instance. Ability to retain the ball confidently whilst bringing your team into the field of play is very important. |
