Bros no one is blaming Mourinho here. And yes mesef na one of those wey dey complain about Martial on the right. But i've since corrected that stance since the fool decided to miss that 1-on-1 and the double chance he fluffed against Newcastle.
Point is everyone should be giving at least a 90% every matchday regardless of where they re played.
you are correct. Players should give everything into the game regardless of position. Although the manager should seek to play players in positions that suits them best.

When we said the club should add money to that Pogba money and buy 2 midfielders instead of him we were called names. Now we have made our bed we have to lie on it. The young man has only a little part of the blame in this situation.

The reason i don't place most of the blame on Pogba is that you can't plant maize and expect to harvest yam. Everybody in the football world has always known that Pogba was spectular only in a 3 man midfield ( a system he played in right from his United youth days). You then buy him for a record fee and want to use him in a fashion he is not used to. Not everybody is Rooney (who by the way most of you here ganged up against here under the tutelage of Coogar).

You have a marquee signing in Pogba who thrives in a 4-3-3 and struggles frequently when used in other formations but u buy him and then insist on playing other formations but not the same 4-3-3 that favours your talisman (and which by the way you JM have used most of your coaching career). Meanwhile most of the successful teams currently e.g Man City, Barca, PSG, Real, Bayern are using the same 4-3-3.

The transfer policy in the club is hit and miss and very haphazard. You have a potential world class talent in your club in Martial who plays on the left and of all the players available in the market you go and buy the only one who prefers to play from the left.....meanwhile the right wing is dead and a right sided Mahrez is begging for a club to come and get him.

You persist in retaining limited players like Darmian, Blind, Fellaini and even offer new contracts thereby stiffling the development of youth players that are arguably already as good as some of these players.

Last poin, Pogba despite all his "struggles" has 9 assists in only 17 matches. He is definitely not the main reason we struggle in matches.

Manchester United XI vs Huddersfield: Romero, Young, Lindelof, Smalling, Shaw, Matic, Carrick, McTominay, Mata, Alexis, Lukaku

Why is Mou starting Smalling ahead of Bailly Ffs

Nah Adelana, most of your guys here are blaming JM.
It's easier to change a coach than to change the whole team. If the coach can't find a balance then he shouldn't be there
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by CapitalCee(m): 5:25pm On Feb 17, 2018
Skimpletyger:
It's funny how your fans make excuses for Martial and Pogba's position and even the sissies are demanding for positions they want to play in.
Even afrodoc2 will choose Pogba over JM, chai grin

Uncle Paul Scholes was right after all.
I don't support such excuses. Martial have no excuse not to play anywhere on the pitch, he is a huge talent, he should keep his head down and perform, he should stop stop listening to social media praise singers. I like the guy but he sulks too much, men don't do that.

As for Pogba, as good SaaS he is, I think he is a petulant 1diot, last game he deliberately played rubbish, but ended. up receiving salary. I think the best way to cub this is imposing a performance based wages across the big clubs, any day you give a shit performance. you take a compulsory pay cut.

I stand with Mou 101%. If the rumors are true, and Madrid are interested in Pogba, if we can convince them to buy Pogba for 150m, he'd fùck off to Madrid. I won't miss him. I've not really liked him with his show-offs anyway. [b]Undermining the team because Sanchez earns more than him. [/b]May thunder strike his blockos there. If he can't buckle up and help the team to win, if he can't admit that's he's been shitty these past few matches, he'd go. United comes first before any player. Nobody is begging him, he's neither Messi or Ororo. Nonsense!!
It's sickening though, the way he played in the last match. Dude was losing the ball and bluntly refused to make good use of the ball when on his feet.

Is it cos of the bolded? I couldn't agree more

If you know you know

When the manager ignores the right side of the attack and keeps on buying players that favor the left side but you want us to ignore that. It was obvious that we are doing fine with Martial and we are desperate for a RW. Sanchez is an excellent addition but shouldn't be at the detriment of the key areas we're actually lacking. Instead we have Lukaku moving to the right always when he should be in the box. Well done Jose

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Ephaig: 5:29pm On Feb 17, 2018
How can we have Sanchez Martial Pogba Lingard on the field and Lukaku is always drifting to the right searching for scraps. FFS what's the manager doinghuh
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SONofnezzar: 5:33pm On Feb 17, 2018
Why is smalling and Young in the lineup
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 5:33pm On Feb 17, 2018
Oasis007:
Lineup
Line up looks ok. Our RW should not be too bad with Young on that side and the midfield although lacking in creativity should be quite compact.
What i want to see today is quality minutes from Gomes, McTominay and if possible Hamilton.

Cruxifizio:
We have plenty of useless players these days however most try to hide it especially when you are not ronaldo or Messi or neymar....even those ones still perform for their various teams. And like you rightly mentioned we the fans are also responsible for creating ediots out of some of these players.....
Ronaldo and Messi are model professional who gives 150% both in training and on the pitch, no wonder they remain the best for over a decade now. I remember when fergie benched Beckham vs Real Madrid in 2003 for a poor performance in the league and even threw a football boot on him in the dressing room, no body said any thing, he sold Becks that year and bought Ronaldo. Ruud van Nistelrooy nko, little misbehaviour in 2006, and he is replaced with saha and later shipped to Madrid, United won the next 3 league title after that. Jaap Stam nko. I am telling you if fergie had been in united now, Pogba dare not misbehave. I heard that there is this instance that after an abject 1st half performance, There was a coffee rain in the dressing room by fergie. that's not obtainable now, managers are endangered species.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by adebayo201: 5:34pm On Feb 17, 2018
good luck to the lads.
hope they give us a huge good performance with better result.

GloryIsaac:
Pogba matter weak me sad, for all his awesome abilities he still needs a particular position to perform. I just tire for the boy, initially Matic was meant to make things easy for him, that one has tried his best, Pogba still no gree sad, now they're planning to cough out more pounds just to unlock Pogba, the 89m+Matic never do angry.

I think the players might be taking advantage of Mou's long history of locker room revolt and discontent, making it hard for one to really point out who is at fault.
you are very spot. the stupid boy Mkhi tried it, blaming his weak mentality on Mourinhos defensive responsibility handed to him. Mourinho has his shortcomings, but most players we have these days, majority of them in united are mischievous, fans and them with media sycophancy

SONofnezzar:
You guys should just chill na

Pogba has accepted he hasn't been playing well in the last few games...Players go through this

my problem now is smalling Jones and Young, Why the coach keeps starting them is what I don't understand
he is very stupid. he is earning big, he should be putting in performances day in day out.

I trust fergie in this kind of situation, Bench the guy if he doesn't wanna give his best

Mou is patient oo I swear
you is not patient, he knows what to do, but he doesn't have the clout of fergie to do that. Fergie can bench Messi and lose and will go scot free but not Moi.

Hmmmm...This statement is somehow oo


Mourinho on Pogba: “I was told by the doctor this morning. I don’t know and I honestly don’t care, I focus on the game. I will think about Paul after the match.”
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SONofnezzar: 6:14pm On Feb 17, 2018
Scholes: “United have looked very nervous. Jones and Smalling, anything around them, they’ve been nervous. As soon as they play against quality, they’re all over the place. This has been indicative of their last few weeks. Shoddy defending.”
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SONofnezzar: 6:17pm On Feb 17, 2018
Scholes on Sanchez: “I think he’s best on the left, it’s where he plays his best football. Four of his forward players want to play on the left. I think he does all his best work there. Great footwork, ability, he makes great runs. I expect more to come from him.”
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SONofnezzar: 6:18pm On Feb 17, 2018
Mourinho on Gomes and Hamilton: “I think it’s a beautiful moment for the players, even if they don’t play.”

Mou is mad I swear cheesy
