Away from man united for a while

I don't seem to find anything wrong with someone saying White lives matter

I know the timing and preceding events might not really be right but then how ia he racist?

I want to learn, no insults please
When your black friends say "Black lives matter", they're not saying ONLY black lives matter or that white lives doesn't matter.
It's also a cry for help, pointing to the profound perils they face. Next time you hear that slogan echo on your streets or digital avenues, pause & think before you respond. To say back to them "All lives matter" is almost like saying to women who are raped "Men are raped too". While your assertion may be true, it diminishes the attention being put on the disproportionate dangers they face & is a mockery of their cry for help. We know it is true that ALL lives matter. But truth spoken without compassion is cruelty.

Yeah Rashford is a hybrid (and so is Martial as well). Neither is a pure wide man or center-forward. Both would be better in a 2 man strike partnership with a more traditional 9, however that is not in vogue anymore.

I said 2 man strike partnership with a traditional no 9 is not in vogue anymore e.g Ighalo/Rashford or Ighalo/Martial.

Oh. You mean one of them in a 2-man partnership with a traditional 9. Thought you meant something else.

To thrive the two of them needs a traditional 9 to occupy opposition defenders.

Exactly. But very few teams use 2 strikers these days.

Agreed.

Inter?

But the thing about Rashford and Martial is that they don’t like playing centrally. So if they partner with a 9, they will move to the left and leave the striker to cover the right and center. Plus they don’t have the skill set to play behind the striker, connecting midfield with attack.

Bruno can be a good SS.

Either of them can play as part of an old fashioned partnership with a proper CF especially Rashford NOT SS/No10. That is the same thing Timo Werner does when he plays centrally.

Inter is not a serious club na. When it comes to turnover of players and managers Inter na the chairman.

But the duo are more comfortable on the left na. They are usually clueless in the middle, behind the striker or not and will drift to the wings

The gesture is not necessarily a racist one. But the timing makes it seem like it’s whitelivematters vs Blacklivesmatter. Majority judge racism emotionally instead of logically. Just like rape, it’s just too touchy a subject for most people.

Quinton Fortune: "I’m walking through the building at the Aon Training Complex and there’s a computer room where the analyst team work. Mason [Greenwood] was in there, looking at games and how he can do better. He’s on it. He’s just a natural — he’s the real deal."

How are black lives in danger? undecided Y’all should stop it with all this propaganda. Check the stats, more white people are killed by the police than black people in the USA. The media just hypes the cases involving black people because that will gain more attention.

BREAKING: Juventus have agreed a £72.5m fee with Barcelona to sign Arthur.
cool

Definitely Pogba gonna renew his Contract.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 4:42pm On Jun 23, 2020
Marcos Rojo doesn't want to return to England. Manchester United want £12m from any permanent deal. Boca Juniors could make an effort to sign him.

Fortune on Greenwood “There’s not many players in world football that are able to go both ways like Mason does. Equally, left and right foot, he’s ridiculous.

“I thought he was left-footed and then he takes penalties with his right! And I’ve seen him take a free-kick with his right foot, his left foot.

“I’m like ‘what’s wrong with you!? Just pick one! Are you okay?’”

Lol is that how they taught you to analyze statistics?

There are 220 million whites and 40 million blacks in America. What do you expect?
Start from there and do the math.

Whites make up over 60% of the general population but only 52% of police fatality.

Blacks make up just over 12% of the population but a whopping 32% of the police fatality.

Only 9.4% of the white victims are unarmed while 14.8% of the black victims are unarmed.

Fortune on Greenwood: I’m waiting for him to have a burst of speed but he’s so good around the box. Stepover, boom! He’s just created that one little yard for him and boom!

I just pray Mason will fulfill his potential because the hype about him is something else, generational talent levels.

Mehn, McTominay played as a striker at youth level. He played CB once under Mourinho and is on the way to becoming a full-time DM now.
