AWB should probably be converted to a CB since he tackles and reads the game well. His height is not bad either
But as a full back in 2019? Tufia!!

ah! a whole AWB! you need to hear igbo boys sing his praise with that their romantic accent, they be like,


one, one, be.... one, one, besakarr
one, one, be oo.... one, one, besakarr /x2


All of you greet this man. he mate no dey una club.

Naso now, was executed perfectly. That is what some of our players should be doing in training, and Ole should be encouraging such initiatives. Not run, run, run, run.

Even mid table teams score similar goals.

Fred or Perreira

We've had such from Pogba to Rashford, even recently from James to Rashford

You don come with this your rubbish 2nd again, after finishing second as starting striker, what happened the next season? Was he benched?

That Inter is challenging for league isn't down to Lukaku alone bros

The season before he came to United he was exceptional, that was two seasons ago. The next season, his first season at United, he also did really well. Only last season was when he had problems when he had a goal drought. But everyone tore into him from all around. They made the name 'Lukaku ' synonymous with a joke. All because of a bad season.

All these because he's not a British player. The English media tore into Lukaku everytime and everyone bought it. Even when he was banging in goals, they said he only score goals against small teams. The same small teams we're struggling to score against now.

And don't forget Lukaku wasn't sold because of bad performance. You can't sell a player because of a bad season. He was sold because Ole thought he didn't fit his stupid tactics.

The truth is most Utd fans don't like his style of football.

The same thing is happening with AWB.
AWB is known for his tackles, the board got the guy, he's here making tackles and fans are complaining grin

So it's either those buying are clueless or what they want is different from us fans.

Same thing they did to blind, so that their darling Shaw could play, Blind is gone and is now the starting LB for Club and Country, He's the starting LB for the team that reached the CL semis and the country that was runner up for the Nations Lleague.

He's also their main LB going to the Euro championship, meanwhile our Shaw is on his 7th million injury, getting fat while earning £150k per week.

When he is sold now, we'll be hearing another thing. That was how I was defending Lukaku last season that midfield was the problem. I remember even dragging Rooney when I was defending Lukaku against elampiro. But it was obvious that whether he's here or not, there won't be any difference because of the players holding the ball and creating the chances.

The striker is not the problem, the defense is not the problem, the midfield is.

Oga, I don't know what epistle you're writing here.

Any post you guys see about Lukaku they always cause una erection grin

I have never disputed the striking abilities of Lukaku, you have to read my reply again, this time with the post I quoted especially the highlighted part..


P.S I don't care why he was sold, the club(Ole) needs to explain why another striker wasn't bought.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by chidexxy007(m): 8:49pm On Nov 03, 2019
Lukaku was here starting before JM got the sack.
Lukaku was still here after the Paris miracle when our form nosedived... How many goals did he score in those periods?

So Lukaku would have been converting the ghost chances this yeye team is creating? wonderful

In as much as Ole and his crew made a very bad decision about Lukaku, he wouldn't have made any difference this season and na same una for don dey call am elephant grin

This is most people's grudge with OGS - offloading players without securing adequate replacements...TBVH, prior to his departure, lukaku was poor for us...ditto other players that were asked to leave.


Having said that, we cant be worse with Lukaku, Sanchez, herrera, Smalling etc in the Mix as we speak.

If we knew we were not gonna be replacing those lads, I think we should have held on to them.


You mean you also want to Port to Inter?

Lukaku was useless for us...

Our default midfield should be a 4-3-3 with McTominay at CDM, Pogba at RAM, Fred at LAM or McT at CDM with Pogba at LAM and Pereria at RAM.

With a high line and the full backs hugging the touchline and the wingers coming in to support the striker. Our spacing is so poor it is laughable.
Solskjaer is positioning wing-forwards like old school wingers. They are hugging the line and not opening up the space for the full backs to attack.
Spot on...

raumdeuter:

He is good with his feet and can take one on one. Lukaku can only beat opponents by pushing or hauling them to the ground. His footwork is worse than a cripple.

See how Martial dealt with Kompany and Sagna in the Manchester derby, see how Martial erased Matthias Ginter from the road vs Germany?

I have never been impressed with an EPL young player the way I am with Martial and given that I was one of those who laughed at the deal

Lukaus option in those scenarios would be to push them away

Kane? I am not sure he is even better than Vardy.

When was the last time you saw a Young striker, good in air, good in shot placing, has the necesary pace, can pick his spot and throw a correct step over to remove his defender from the road

Even Henry wasnt this good at 19
You go just they cause commotion everywhere you go, you no fit stay your own thread they argue why you blame your coach instead of boateng for getting red card.

Of course, not every fans will like a particular player. If Ole n the clueless board had replaced Lukaku and fixed the midfield, we won’t be having this discussion right now.

Just as eph pointed out, Lukaku was scapegoat by most of the fan base because of the inability of the midfield players. He has his flaws quite alright but he wasn’t the reason why we weren’t scoring bucket load of goals.

Like I said at the beginning of the season, with those stupid transfer decisions Ole made, we are actually worse off this season than we were last season. Getting rid of Lukaku wasn’t the problem itself, not replacing him the midfield is the problem.

The only thing I don’t agree about is some people here trying to use last season alone to judge Lukaku while convinently avoiding the fact that he was our top forward scorer that same season despite playing less mins.
