I was about to say that! Did you think a player like Rashford woulda put in such chance inside the net?

MrLouisVanGaal:
Is this is a bleeping joke?

elampiro:
Jose Mourinho has praised Phil Jones and taken a sly dig at rival Pep Guardiola.

Mourinho is amazed by Jones' comeback from injury after fearing for his career.

While Guardiola indulges John Stones with the ball at his feet at neighbours Manchester City, Mourinho reckons Jones is all about out-and-out defending.

Jones’ form in the last three games has seen him turn back the clock to the time when he was branded the next John Terry while at Blackburn.

Mourinho said: “It is difficult to compare players. Jones is faster than John; John is better in the air than Jones.

“They are different players but what I like is defenders that enjoy defending. Jones likes to defend, as a defender. Sometimes defenders now think the most important quality is to build from the back.

“That is not the most important quality. The most important quality is to defend. Then, if you can add quality in the build-up, you become a very good player.

“But to defend is, for me, the most important quality in a central defender. I am getting that from Jones at a moment when he was not really ready to play.

“He stepped in front because the team didn’t have players to play at Swansea and gave one step forward. I went for it. He has a good personality. Now, with one or two weeks of football and training, he looks very sharp and the team is safe.”

But we're you not the same person that stated here that Rashford has "fully developed world class striking instincts and that he should be man uniteds top 9?" even at 18 years old......so now doubts have crept in!


By the way you know it is futile trying to deny this...I always deliver the posts!

MrLouisVanGaal:


Fvcking big lie

Against stoke, Ibrahimovic was set free by Pogba and with the right side of the goal clear Ibrahimovic shoots to the tight and covered left. last game Ibrahimovic was set free and while a simple chip would do like what Rooney did against feyernood, instead he takes a low shot and keeper gets his leg to it. Same as in matches against Burnley and Arsenal. Watch highlights of those misses and you'll know how much of a lie you just told.

Do you really watch our matches? I mean sit in a proper room and watch a television not some place where people are running commentary and you hear

Funlordjnr:




My guy he was comparing JONES to JOHN TERRY! He took no dig whatsoever at guardiola!

Check out Ibra chances in the Westham game here:

Then tell me if any of those were easy? As a matter of fact, Ibra has been the only one that consistently creates clear cut chances in the team. Forget about Pogba lofted ball, Rooney's crosses or Mata puffing and huffing, Ibra has been more essential to our style of play than anyone else and without him, no one else can make the other players crosses look as good.

elampiro:


Ibrahimovic has had the easiest chances in the EPL so far. I lost count of one vs one he missed and the clear cut chances missed. Against City he missed. I think against Liverpool he missed two one vs one because lack of speed let him down. Just like the chance Rashford missed against West Ham, but Ibrahimovic didn't even have the speed to finish his race towards the goalkeeper.

If he were clinical, we would have at least been 3rd. We need a younger striker

Elxandre:

I'm happy you obviously see Arsenal as inferior even though you and your delusional friends before the match, claimed we had no chance against them.
This alone makes me question your sanity.

Kagawa10:


But in the clip above, it shows that those alleged easy chances were just in our fan's head and imagination.

Kagawa10:
All I've seen is just 1 clear-cut chance for Ibra per game and a striker is allowed to miss 1 per game. Maybe you need to watch the likes of Lewy and Auba to see they missed at least 1 per game.

However, the point is we hardly create multiple clear-cut chances for Ibra. As a matter of fact, Ibra made those chances possible. I trust Rashford na, he won't even bother about those nonsense crosses or lofted ball in the first place.

elampiro:


You don't write like one who knew what the clear cut chance is. Strikers hardly get one pay game.

Kagawa10:


Maybe you've been so deluded by our little creativity that you think all those Ariel crosses and outside the box shots are clear-cut chances!

elampiro:
Look at the clear cut chances missed as at Oct 20th. Ibrahimovic leads. I can't even find Costa and Aguero on the list.

This doesn’t even include his miss vs Chelsea that should have put the game at 1-1. His horrible miss vs Burnley.

Kagawa10:


I've bee watching through the clips you posted and I couldn't help but laugh. Even the goal he scored against City wasn't easy. He had to volley most of the chances while the ball is still in mid air, he almost even got injured because he was trying too hard to connect mid air with one of these terrible chances. Because as soon as these chance drops to the ground, they are promptly cleared off.

The only clear cut in the city game was the one blocked by Stones. You could say he shoulda hit harder but I guess he didn't think anyone would have blocked it considering Bravo already left his post. Hence, the soft hit which was tricking inside the net until Stones' block.

What do guys think of this Victor Lindelof guy? We're being linked with a bid for him, seeing as we horribly lacked height in our defence.
