Wan-Bissaka and Fred were selected for drug testing after Sunday's win against Man City.

You were blaming the wrong people. I told you the central midfield where we have McTominay, Fred and Matic was okay. The front four was the issue. At some point I said we needed to get a number 10 like Silva to make us play better. I also said the number 10 playing in the hole has the number one responsibility to create and then the forward. But you were too deep in blaming the wrong people to understand

Lol you were blaming the forwards whilst we blamed the supporting cast (midfield, fullbacks and CBs who played too deep).

I have seen folks here admit that Shaw, Wan-Bissaka and the midfield have improved, any coincidence the forwards are scoring now?

Oasis007:




Patrickmuf, ChristoBam and runaway Weedtaker almost ate me raw when I referred the Dude as Bakayoko 2.0.

Ndombele is new to the league. The EPL is actually very fast with little or no time on the ball. Ndombele is yet to understand this. Fred only just began to show the sterling qualities he displayed at Shakhter. Give Ndombele time.

Meanwhile, abeg refresh my memory, when did I say he was the ish?

Has Martial improved or has the quality of supply improved? Honest reviews will be appreciated...

Fair enough.

Time will tell then

Oasis007:
Pogba is prepared to commit his future to Manchester United. He sees his long-term future at Manchester United and is happy to stay, even extending his existing contract.

- Mail

What is this abeg?

Oasis007:
Pogba currently earns around £300,000 a week, and a new contract at Manchester United would take that to around £400,000 a week.

- Mail

Increasing his contract on what basis? Played only 8 matches so far, coupled with an agent that can't keep his fat mouth shut. United should not be unfortunate abeg, unless they want a repeat of the Alexis Sanchez wage structure situation where better-performing players begin to ask for a huge increase. If Pogba's wage is increased, then Fred, McTom and Co all have a solid reason to get an increase too.

Oasis007:
Pogba is determined to prove his true worth and believes he play a lead role in a period of success at Manchester United. He's been particularly impressed by Bruno Fernandes and thinks he can develop an exciting partnership with him.

- Mail

Play which lead role? lmfaooo, abegiii... Except Mail is just spitting lies, then this is all hogwash if it's truly from Pogba. If he's serious, he should first get rid of Mino Riola.

Pogba won't succeed in any lead role, no need deceiving people. He's only at his best when he's not the go-to guy in the team, history has proven that.

paafin:


Fernandez and Ighalo are not Brits, and every player has a price. We can get cash and pogba deal for Odegaard if madrid comes for Pogba.

That was me taking a swipe at the board. I didn't mean that we must buy brits. As for that swap deal? Best forget about it. Never gonna happen.

Your question make it look like it is black or white, which isn't really true. Rather, it's more like grey.

First of all, a happy Martial is a very dangerous Martial which is why I'm super happy about this his new-found bromance with Bruno Fernandes. He has improved in his gameplay, he has become quicker, he now makes split-second decisions (especially in the box), he is hungry for goals (though this can make him selfish sometimes). It's amazing what love can do

Knowing that him and Bruno are now counting the number of goals and assists between them makes it all sweeter, because they go into matches looking to increase that tally. Martial wants to score, Bruno wants to assist him. Perfect combination.

Also, the supply has obviously improved, thanks to tackle merchant (AWB), Shaw, Bruno and Fred. James just wants to be unfortunate Smh

And to be honest, the team is gelling off the pitch.. Look at Ighalo's media posts with Mata, Fernandes posts with Martial etc.. All these things play a role in his resurgence.

Lana1:
Tbh, we dodged a lot of bullets this last summer. Many of the players we were linked to no try at all this season.
Joao Felix, Ndombele, De Ligt...

Joao Felix is affected by injuries, you guys should always consider that while tagging a player, a flop. You didn't dodge any bullet on him.

elampiro:


It is not wrong. Even the right wing and lert wing are also called midfielders. But we are talking about central midfielders. This was why in my argument with you, we never considered Lingard in it. Lingard was having the best chances created in the combined team, but I never called him a midfielder. Rooney was not a midfielder behind Van Persie. It is same position.

Bruno is playing as aattacking midfielder.

That you didn't call him a midfielder, didnt mean you were right.

CMs DMs AMs are Midfielders in soccer. Ozil is a midfielder. Bruno is a midfielder.

I dnt know how, but Tottenham will chop beating this Sunday.

Mourinho diminishing rapidly.

let me answer u dis way.Assuming martial had nt scored wud u say he has improved? No vision n he still can't hold on to ball.when he suppose to make passes he won't.is still d same old martial .d only difference now ? Bruno is creating more quality chances for him n he is nt lethal enough to convert many of dem.

afrodoc2:


Mjebri is good. He has the highest potential in the under 18s in my opinion. However it is more about his strength and quality on and off the ball. In terms of pure long range passing i don't think he is as good as Levitt or Garner.

Definitely. Mejbri is more of an attacking midfielder so he doesn’t need to master long range passes.

He’s got loads of quality on the ball though. Hopefully he can break through the first team in the next 2 years. They should manage him carefully.

In simple sense, it was not a case of Martial improving but the supply coming often and clear cut...Thanks.

He has refused to tweak his management style and tactics but then, it's hard to look past the injuries they are dealing with at the moment.

A combination of both...Okay.

No, according to Elampiro, De Bruyne, David Silva, Bruno, Ozil etc are all attackers and not midfielders...

olabode89:


4-2-3-1

With Bruno on the RW as a free role player, he will be given the license to drift between the opponent's defence and attack. He is also familiar with this position and we currently do not have a competent RW.

AWB. Lidelof. Maguire. Shaw.


Fred. Matic


Bruno. Pogba. Rashford


Martial

When Pogba returns one or both of Fred and Mctominay drops to the bench if Matic keeps on his current form.

Oasis007:

Delete other pics and leave only Ighalo's.

Training pics have resumed

patrickmuf:
Lol you were blaming the forwards whilst we blamed the supporting cast (midfield, fullbacks and CBs who played too deep).

The fact remains that the central midfield has not changed. Also the fullbacks. What has charged is the forward. The number 10 (hole) is always a forward.

patrickmuf:
.

I have seen folks here admit that Shaw, Wan-Bissaka and the midfield have improved, any coincidence the forwards are scoring now?

More like Martial has improved due to competition from Ighalo. Although Martial usually have on and off form.

Lol, a No. 10 is a CM, an 8 is the AM which is still a midfielder.

Was Rooney a midfielder in 2012/2013, 2013/2014?

I am not wrong. LW and RW are also midfielders in the sense you argue. If you check Premier League website highest chances created by midfielders, you are going to see wingers. So in that sense, Martial, James are midfielders.

In a 4 3 3, you have wing forwards but in a 4 4 2 or 4 2 3 1, you have LMF and RMF flanking an AM...Martial plays CF so, I don't get what you're on about.

patrickmuf:

They are forward players if they play in 4-2-3-1. But midfielders if they play in 4-3-3
