Mr_TA: Dembele looked head and shoulders above our midfield by some distance. fans said that about mulumbu, yaya toure, coquelin, van der vaart, etc last season when they all lost to ando/clev....if i post the stats, you would recoil. the only problem we had today was the defence and fergie's daft substitutions just before the 70th minute! when kagawa left, the energy left with him, the man in the hole didn't just do any pressing at all leaving ando/clev outnumbered by fulham defenders. where was dembele in the first half and until vidic scored an own goal? |

Cristalz: @StarboardAshley Young signing is a fraudulent one.Interpol needs to investigate all parties involved. If he can't find an open man in the 18 yard box, I wonder what he's doing at a club like United. Aside from that, dude did absolutely nothing but drop his shoulder like a hunch back. coogar:Did we watch the same game? Please bring the stats lets see which midfielder had the better game. Dembele kept swatting those two like pesky houseflies.Only poor finishing prevented Fulham from taking maximum advantage of his driving runs. Anderson played like a baby rhino,just digging up marks on the field and nothing more. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 5:36pm On Aug 25, 2012 |
Once again, we do it the hard way. Might as well stop watching our games beyond 60 minutes as we tend to switch off just on the hour mark. If a team shld be winning big, it should be united, but wheneva we get our noses in front the lads just switch off. I think the Dembele hype is just knee-jerk, he was almost invincible when we were dominating possesion. |

StarBoard: Martin Jol said: "We had a good win last week, put playing here is a little bit different to playing at home against Norwich, Even though we scored an early goal we were still not full of confidence, and United played so well in the first half. I thought it might be a really bad day for us. We just couldn't keep up with Tom Cleverley and Anderson but we managed to win the second half 1-0, so it was a game of two totally different halves". i would post the stats as soon as i power my phone! |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 7:55pm On Aug 25, 2012 |
coogar:You're not even using a computer, yet you're disputing my claims! Anyway Martin Jol hasn't managed to beat United in like forever. Why should I Listen to his opinion? Fact is, Dembele got our boys running like preying mantisses in a newly cut lawn. Only Kagawa did well of all the guys who featured in the middle; the worst was Ashley Young. |

StarBoard: how dare you diss my nokia 3210? dembele got the upper hand after kagawa left...rooney came on and forgot his role as the man in the hole to help his midfield duo! sometimes, fergie's subs make no sense at all! we didn't need to take shinji off, his energy kept us buzzing and he was linking well with ando-clev, dropping deep too to get stuck in! ![]() ![]() |

Rooney out for 4 weeks. |

Good thing we have RvP then. Infact we're a little top heavy with strikers so we can afford Rooney's injury at the moment. We really need some defenders back asap though. |

StarBoard: the stats are ready but i am @ the carnival now dancing alanta with some jamaican bootays! not convenient to post with my nokia.....cleverley and anderson posted 90+% pass completion, dembele posted 98%. i checked the heatmap and i can categorically say it was our weak defence dembele sodomized - not our midfield! when kagawa went off and we conceded the 2nd goal - united went into a panic mode.......martin jol then pushed dembele from his deep position(where he was murdered by ando-clev) into the heart of our defence. he terrorised carrick, evra, rafael and vidic!!! |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 7:43pm On Aug 26, 2012 |
^^^ Be careful . . . Those Jamrock chicks can put a hurt on you . . . Even before he moved up further the park (after Sidwell was introduced), he bossed proceedings in the middle.His strong driving runs caused problems and Michael Carrick kept forgetting he was deployed as a CB instead of a destroyer and kept trying to track his runs. Anyway I woulda thought those stats would be ready given your propensity to drop them at the slightest opportunity. Get rid of that abacus you call a phone and be down with them smart-phones. |

ritchboy: he did not..... ando-clev murdered him as observed by martin jol.....then sidwell came on to join diarra and dembele was pushed further forward.....that was when he got united! dembele played in 2 different positions....when it was dembele/diarra versus ando-clev in the first 60 mins, ando-clev murdered their counterparts! |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 8:33pm On Aug 27, 2012 |
Effiko: any1 notice hw liVerPool played against shitty yesterday? their first home game - i wasn't expecting anything less....united would have won that game if we had lost our first game game 3-0 to west brom! the scousers were dying to impress their fans and prove they ain't dickheads! this just in.... fergie threw in a £5m bid for moussa dembele some few weeks ago which martin jol obviously rejected. there's a rumour gathering pace that fergie is still after him and he might sign him before the window slams shut! do we need dembele? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 11:02pm On Aug 27, 2012 |
coogar:Dembele? Yes!!! I prefer him to your beloved Anderson |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 11:17pm On Aug 27, 2012 |
ogbeche77: in terms of fitness and durability, yes..... but in terms of ability, i don't think he's better than anderson...however, he would be cheap as he's got only a year left on his contract. £10m or £15m should bring him to old trafford! our fans singing "sign him up, fergie" on saturday might influence fergie! having pondered over dembele, i think he would be a wonderful addition to our squad because of one factor - his physicality! he's a beast - i would love to see him go against yaya toure(it would be the battle of the titans). anderson and cleverley are excellent but only when going forward - midfield dominance is much more than dominating only when you have the ball, you must also dominate when you don't have the ball and it's obvious ando-clev easily get bullied when they are not in possession. another reason dembele should be considered is the carrick factor! if we lose carrick to injury, then we are royally screwed! fletcher is the only similar player to carrick defensively and he's been out of competitive football for far too long. scholes/giggs are over the hill... |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Cristalz(f): 11:40pm On Aug 27, 2012 |
There you go. It's a no brainer. Doubt that there would be any dispute about Dembele being a very useful addition. And not just for the City boys....the Chelsea boys are kinda becoming a very thick attack force. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by montelik(m): 7:27am On Aug 28, 2012 |
Wayne, get better and while you're out, there's a good chance we'll be just fine with the simple and talented Kagawa as the No.10 and the sublime van Persie as our No.9. If this makes you upset perhaps, that might not be a bad thing. You looked like you lacked adequate fitness and sharpness when the season began -- come back hungry and in a fighting spirit so that you can earn your spot again. For me personally, I was very pleased that Fergie wasn't afraid to drop Wazza versus Fulham on Saturday. As long as this isn't a chemistry distraction in the dressing room, United will be better off for it. How quickly things can change. Maybe now he will finally to earn his £1m a month wages. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by codedguy1(m): 12:27pm On Aug 28, 2012 |
StarBoard: LOL!! coogar: I dont think any United fan would reject signing Dembele after his perfomance against us. But where does he play really, midfield or support striker as he did against us. We already have enough personel there and if we are talking about DM then we really need him. His signing will throw up more competition in the midfield, his physicality makes him a big YEs signing cos it seems the likes Chelsea and CITY are really up for the title this term. All in all, i think we should sign him. |
