coogar:

is this question genuine or you are trolling? who made the last touch before rooney volleyed in from 50 yards? what defines an assist? why am i even arguing? even opta gave that assist to young which hereby nullifies your argument that he had one assist.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/1571078_image_jpeg9f360c5ab7736510df54c882e9dbf188




premier league counts those as assists. nani's cross that got rooney the glorious overhead kick against city had a slight deflection but nani still got the assist. the way premier league counts their assists is different from how opta does theirs.....we have argued this times without number.

so if opta gave young the assist against west ham, should we then nullify the assist when he was brought down in the box to win a penalty against palace? lemme guess - assists don't count when young wins a penalty but it counts when others do, right?

try & be man enough to admit you have goofed instead of hugging desperately on assist stats of opta.

whoscored gave him one assist in the EPL for the whole season so don't know what u talking about.
ok you are right Ashley Young had a better season than Adnan

Surprisingly watching Man Utd's match. . .Nice goal by Welbeck!
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 4:25am On Jul 24, 2014
Welbeck scores with a shot from outside the box.

Herrera. Now I realize we have not had a midfielder since Scholes.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 4:35am On Jul 24, 2014
Iheanacho on City score list. He scored the last goal in their 4-1 win.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 4:35am On Jul 24, 2014
Gosh! Bad signal from a very heavy rain.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 4:53am On Jul 24, 2014
Valencia won a penalty, and Rooney scores.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 4:54am On Jul 24, 2014
Rooney scores again.

You absolutely right.. We have a very good buy in Herrera!

Am shocked, Rooney almost missed that Sitter from '3' yards Anyway let's say its the first friendly match
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 5:15am On Jul 24, 2014
Top performers:

Welbeck
Herrera
Valencia

The game has been very good. Evans, Jones and Smalling doing well at the back. Evans is always at the left back covering. Jones is the middle man. Fletcher is playing well. Valencia doing well defending, attacking and in midfield. Welbeck is trying to be our Robben.

Rooney looks lean but looking strange in the number 9. He makes run but the midfielders won't pass, preferring to build gradual. He drops deep but soon remembers that isn't his job.

I couldn't really read Mata and Shaw. I will see the game again hopefully. Mata and Welbeck with assists.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 5:19am On Jul 24, 2014
Second half under way. I can see almost the whole team has been changed. Nani, Kagawa, Rafael, is that Kean?, Cleverley, all in.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 5:27am On Jul 24, 2014
I can see somebody like Ashley Young. While tackling, always bending down and opening his hands like someone trying to catch a fowl.

A certain James scores from Young assist. Is that Rodriguez? Oh! no. Reece James.

Yea. He chipped the goalkeeper, but the keeper got one hand up in the air, fortunately Rooney was right there again as the ball fell behind the goalkeeper.

I am happy with Herrera.

It's like Van Gaal is now playing 4 defenders?
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by capricornian(m): 5:42am On Jul 24, 2014
elampiro2:

I am happy with Herrera.

The way he's playing I wana believe Moyes made a huge mistake nnot signing him last season. Our lot would have been better IMO
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 5:43am On Jul 24, 2014
chrisley024: It's like Van Gaal is now playing 4 defenders?

Yes. But I prefer the first half. We look highly unorganized now. Do you think Rafael is playing well?
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 5:47am On Jul 24, 2014
I can see Chicha on the bench.

Yes we are..... Herrera!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 5:52am On Jul 24, 2014
James again.

Herrera destroying Galaxy. Since kick off. His move led to the 5th goal.

FT!
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by montelik(m): 6:00am On Jul 24, 2014
Herrera man of the match by a country mile. One shouldn't get carried away, as its only LA Galaxy, but boy has he been impressive.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 6:01am On Jul 24, 2014
Now this is Manchester United.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by capricornian(m): 6:06am On Jul 24, 2014

I think we just need some power in the MF hopefully from VIDAL but Herrera is a custom made player for us. He gave us what we lacked through out last season. He just wana lay the Through pass and he has got the eyes for goals as well.

Good buy... Money well spent!
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro2: 6:07am On Jul 24, 2014
Welbeck was outstanding when the match was tough. It might be a problem for Rooney and RVP.
