At 25 years old oga?

24*... But I agree with you. Players of that age should not be in contention. Well, the rule is strange. As long as you start the season as a 23yr old, your eligible to win PFA Young Player of the year.

DeadPresidents:
Young player of the year is awarded to exceptional performers at or below the age of 25.

This means Sterling is still technically eligible for the award but it's really hilarious to see Sterling receive the award.

If our own Jesse was exceptional for a season and shortlisted, I bet no one would bat an eyelid even though he is technically ineligible for the award.

The age limit is actually 23.... Sterling and B.Silva started the season as 23yrs olds which makes them eligible, and both of them are 24 now.

On the current rules, Sterling should be the young player of the year.

But they should change it to players under 21 having their 1st season with minimum 10 appearances or something.

Seems like a sorta consolation to Sterling. It’s likely he misses out on the player of the year award.

The rule should be limited to younger players though. It doesn’t feel like Sterling is a young EPL player, given that he’s been playing in the league for the last, what, 5 years?

That award should be for outstanding youngies. Contenders this season should be players like Declan Rice, Richarlison, Rashford? Hudson-Odoi? Zinchenko?

Rashford? Odoi?

For what exactly?

Wrong thread

Your bewilderment is the reason I added question marks after their names. Zinchenko too.

But to answer your question, for their contribution to their team with respect to others in that category.

Of course, those two whose inclusion raised your eyebrows plus Zinchenko should be below the rung in comparison with Rice. And maybe Richarlison.

Maybe it’s my anger against Rashford that’s getting the better part of me

Just imagine that little cûnt winning any award ehn, na to demand 250k or 300k be the next thing.

Odoi has done nothing for Chelsea over the course of the season to even be considered for any award.

Declan Rice
Zinchenko
TAA
Reuben Neves
Diego Jota

Those are the ones I will nominate.

You can say the same for Zinchenko. He hardly contributed.

LooL. I forgot about Jota. Didn’t even consider him.

Who is TAA?

Lol i dont know why a big club like man u is held hostage by a goal keeper, if he insists on the mamoth wage, sell him sharp sharp... See better keeper Cilessen dey waste for barca bench and is ready to leave this summer.

y will dey sell him since he has been performing very well in d past [center][/center]

Trent Arnold Alexander

Past few weeks has been really disappointing for me watching us struggle game after game especially after the blistering start to the Ole regime. We need to clear the deadwoods come summer and make some signing whilst blooding in youngsters like Greenwood, Garner, Chong and the likes...Tuanzebe and TFM should return to replace Rojo and Jones on much less wages...Ww need a major overhaul and Ed needs to find a solution to DDG going forward and make a decision on Sanchez, hopefully, he's shown the door.

Ah. He should even be the one contending with Rice for top spot.

I lost interest completely in yesterday’s game after DenGea’s howler. It was very disappointing.

A lot needs to be done at Utd. We’ve got too many machineries who don’t want to work for their money.

True, I think Foden is in with a better shout than Zincheko.

The top 3 could be Neves/Jota, TAA and Rice.

larride:
Until we start playing a possession based system and they have worked on it in training with actual ball playing CB alongside him, you can’t say his passing isn’t good.

Actually De Gea Does not have the low punt trajectory pass,but he does have the high punt.secondly,a sweeper gk does not need a ball playing cb to show that he has the "low punt skill"

Erm who’s he going to be doing the “low punt passes” too?

It might be too early as most of us say but OLE has got his faults as well. I strongly believe he just does not have what it takes. Next season can't come fast enough for us to see.

Enough said about the players the better. All these Rashford, Lingard are only being hyped. I have always known the boy is so limited for a top striker. His only saving grace is because he's English. Martial is also useless and might not make it as long as he's in Man Utd. I read somewhere today that he performed better under MOU cos he knew MOU was not buying the hype, so he worked harder to prove a point. He will do well going back to the French league. Both Rashford and Martial should not be getting more than 100k weekly tops.

Sanches' wages caused most of these problems. When you start convincing players to sign for you with money, then these kinds of issues will always come up... especially if the players you convince are just average players. Real Madrid also convince players with money but they seem to go for the top class players. Just watch how they will operate during the next TW. Woodhead will wait till last minute to complete deals..mnxxx

That Jesse Lingard na ancestor o..dude is 27 years old

the wingers, the cf in cases of counter attack?,or are u saying youq players are unable to trap and control.

Of those 3 I’d pick TAA cos He’s contributed in no small way to Liverpool’s ‘success’ this season. Rice comes close but I feel the English press hypes him too much.

simonjassy:

So DDG will make “low punt passes” to wingers and CF?

I’m not sure you know what you are talking about so I will just let it rest.

About OLE, the only thing we have to do is wait. Hope Ed gets busy quickly bringing in his targets.

I agree Lingard is average; he just a workaholic horse.

If you’ve seen Rashford when he first came on the scene, you won’t be saying what you’re saying. As a youngster he was way cooler. He linked up well with teammates and scores good goals. He had it in him.

At the moment though he’s just horrible. I don’t know what went wrong. Maybe the way he was used out wide over the years sabotaged his growth, maybe na village people matter, I don’t know. But if he isn’t banging in goals, he should be shown the bench.

Martial’s problem is just laziness. Of all the attackers in the league he’s covered the least ground per game. However He’s got the best close control in the squad. And when he turns it on he can be unstoppable. He’s just lazy. Can’t make runs behind defenders and can’t cause damage to defenses. I don’t know what OLE has to do but we need him firing.

Yes, TAA is most likely my top pick but Jota and Neves do have a strong case than Rice in my opinion.

The English press are the England players undoing, they hype them too much that these players lose focus easily and start playing as if the world is already at their feet. Only Kane has repaid that much hype among these current crop of mediocre in my opinion.

Bros chic2pimp how far? That Inter beating really did a number on you guys the other day.

Una fit make Europe?

Sharrap Dia!

Funny enough Top 3 is not off the table. If we put a run or two together now, we can do it as I am quite confident the others will drop points.

MRTA7:
Mane,Salah,Firminio,VVD. Alisson. Fabinho. These are not average players.

Ederson,Laporte,Mendy,Fernandinho,debruyne,DSilva,BSilva,Aguero,Sane, Sterling,Mahrez, Jesus, Gundogan. Not average players.

Most of this players you mention are average players with high work rate.

So, you’re expecting Inter, Atalanta and Roma to doze off abi?

See you in Europa! - that’s if you make it to Europe.

But kudos to Gatusso, Bakayoko now knows how to trap the ball. Small.
