elampiro:Yeah he needs to improve his stats but the style of play is not helping here and that is my point. If he wasn't contributing to the goals it would have been a problem but someone coming here to ask what Lukaku does in a match or for the team shows ignorance of the game football 1 Like |

eph12: City are unarguably the best in the league, this is a fact which doesn't require indepth analysis. A cursory glance at their match-day squad, their stats and how they have been playing this season explains why they're superior. If you assert that Utd whose performances have been below average are the second best team in England this season, then you'll have to explain how. Squad value, general stats or playing style? Being placed 2nd doesn't justify such claim. Many title winning sides weren't the best sides in the diverse competitions they partook. A good example of this is Chelsea's 2012 UCL winning side. |

Odunharry: Please help me ask our royal majesty, the king of soccer argument, Shuaibu Amodu's first discovery if that amounts to having a poor season. After being exposed as dodgy pundits, folks will say anything to avoid swallowing their vomit and eating humble pie.They can't tell you why Pogba is more a effective weapon despite not changing his game, except telling you that last season is different from this. If you created the most chances in a team for one season, how does that translate to having a poor season? The dust being yarned here no get part two. If you persist his royal majesty will tell you "you no know ball". And we go dey curse hensbreast and sodiq0l0d0 say dem dey talk rubbish. |

elampiro: To discredit Pogba you actually typed this on a public forum. Meaning you can't even be objective in your criticism. Fella had two assists in the game and you're calling one "granny assist". No disrespect but you have a superiority complex problem. You think you know everything better than everyone but you come across as a toddler with soiled smelly diapers smearing everywhere with sh1t. See what a full grown adult is saying about a player who is crucial to the team's success overall. You insult our collective intelligence with this your Lampese I-too-know attitude. 17 Likes 2 Shares |

David De Gea instructed his agent Jorge Mendes to reject Real Madrid as he is intent on staying at Manchester United, according to reports. The 27-year-old has been one of Madrid’s top targets and came very close to joining the Spanish champions in the summer of 2015 before a faulty fax machine scuppered the move. In July, Jose Mourinho revealed that he had offered De Gea the chance to join Madrid but claimed the Spanish club did not make an offer. El Confidencial claims that when Madrid’s president Jorge Mendes last made an approach to Mendes about De Gea, it was the United goalkeeper who clearly said he wanted to remain at Old Trafford.

Griffon:You were not specific. You only talked about what united is not. I was expecting to see you state Chelsea arsenal Liverpool or totteham as the second best team. Why is that difficult to state? 2 Likes |

got saved by De Gea from what would have been an absolute massacre by Arsenal. Still won't win any cup of importance, again, this season. And y'all would have to make do with the worst type of football in the league (yeah, even West Brom play better footie these days, Pulls isn't there) And that's after spending half a billion pounds 1 Like |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 5:25pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
See what I have been saying Lukaku plays too far from the opponents post and I can't think of any other striker in the top teams that's asked or forced to play this way. I'm not excusing his misses but if he was having 3-4 of this in a game he would be scoring goals. Lukaku would have scored if he played for arsenal yesterday

So this is the Man city team people are penning down to win champions league. They are not unbeatable to me. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by codedguy1(m): 5:45pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
eph12: But isn't this because our general play seems to be very particular about defensive play and so it would rather stupid of Lukaku to stay upfront far from the team when we are probably under pressure (and we be in under pressure in a lot of games this season) westham scores ......chai. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Noah13: 5:48pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
CapitalCee:Having a real go at them gives you a chance, but this also means you risk being too open. Let's all hope sterling hasn't got a late special today |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Dantedasz(m): 5:54pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
This is looking interesting Half time at the Etihad. Man city-0 West Ham United-1. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by CapitalCee(m): 5:57pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
Noah13: It's not true, city is an Arsenal hybrid just allow them have the ball and go at them sparingly but with speed from time to time you can get something. Another thing I noticed is that they are very poor at defending set piece, bigger teams will look to exploit it. They have also lost some momentum of late, Injury to any 2 of Fernadinho, Silva, KDB or Ederson, they might struggle. They have everything going for them at the moments even referee decisions, lots of soft penalties lots of added time when they need it, but they are certainly a very fantastic team no doubt. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 6:03pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
codedguy1:Exactly! So the team plays defensively and he has to play from the halfway line but expects to score goals with the 1-2 chances he gets when he has never been a pacy player like Salah, Lingard and co. Seriously I don't know any striker that will do well under this condition. He does not have link up play but he has 4 assists already and got the ball rolling for over 3 of our goals. People are not being fair to him and I hope he is rested so Ibra can have a go and we all get to see what he can offer us this season. But from his little cameo i don't see anything special yet |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by codedguy1(m): 6:03pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
Noah13: Those 2last minute goals sterling scored to rescue city still dey haunt me. never write this city off until the fat ref sings. They have that Jesus guy on the bench and that guy is as dangerous as they come. if Moyes can do the unthinkable here to take points off city it will make our game against them even more fierce. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 6:07pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
Nothing from me about City until final whistle |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by codedguy1(m): 6:09pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
eph12: well, I am one of those criticising Lukaku, but not even on the scoring part. why I wrote what I wrote in response to your comment was that because we play in that manner his hold up play and positioning should improve. if he is on the half way line when we are under pressure and someone comes out with ball his positioning should give that player an option even if he is in the middle, then he needs to learn how to hold the ball to find someone else and then run forward to do damage. I know Lukaku is doing his best I just think he can do better. |

annie74:I feel an appeal won't fly because of the sarcastic applause he gave the official. Besides it seem the FA is doing their best to send the trophy Man City's way anyway, so they may milk any appeal to instil more punishment! |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 7:12pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
funlord: Pogba killed two counters at 2-0 My friend and I said, if only it was those days of JS Park having to receive that ball and giving it to on rushing Martial/Lukaku/Lingard. Pogba took unnecessary second touch backward instead of continuing forward and laying it for Martial to his left or Lingard to his right. |
