elampiro: How’s that a small difference? Bruno, KDB, Rashford and Shaw are all set piece takers, their created chances stats would be skewed. Any of them takes a corner kick and Maguire’s slabhead puts the ball into row Z, that’s a chance created. 1 Like |

weedtaker: That was a very strong Monaco side. You forgot they also had Lemar and Falcao in their attack. The same Monaco side that destroyed Pep’s Man City? weedtaker: That Monaco side wasn’t average. It was a team filled with talents. Big clubs came for nearly all their players after that season. Bakayoko - Chelsea Mbappe - PSG Lemar - Atletico Bernardo - Man City Mendy - Man City Fabinho - Liverpool That’s more than half of their first team going to massive European clubs. How’s that an average side? Average sides don’t win a league competition of 38 games. weedtaker: Haaland is as good as Mbappe. One could even argue he’s better. Look at the number of goals he’s scored for Dortmund in a short while he got there? That’s a Dortmund side that are languishing in 5th position in a very poor Bundesliga season this year. weedtaker: Same as the pensioner Giroud that Arsenal considered not good enough and they kicked out. France had a massive squad in 2018. Even Greenwood would perform at a high level for that team. The defence was solid, the midfield was monstrous. Any decent striker would perform just about the same as Mbappe. Haaland could have actually scored more in that French team than Mbappe did. 5 Likes |

Lana1: Martial is the worst despite being less active than Rashford. Compare Fred with McTominay and you will see Fred is trying. See Pogba

Illimitable: Can you show the CC from open play in the EPL this season? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Illimitable: 5:37pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
elampiro: I can find it. However, I know as at January 20, Shaw had created 12 chances from corners and free kicks in the PL. He created only 3 from set plays throughout last season. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 5:45pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
This was distance covered from our win over PSG in October. If you remove Fred and McTominay from out midfield, Maguire and Lindelof will be eaten raw

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 5:50pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
I used to be able to see distance covered with: Km covered with speed Km covered with light running Km covered jogging Km covered walking If we can have this, for sure you guys will value why Fred is making it to starting line up |

Nezzjnr:Nope. NYSC?? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Illimitable: 6:00pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
elampiro: The pairing of Fred and McTominay is essential in the defensive midfield for United because we don’t have players better than them in the squad. That does not mean we should kid ourselves that they are good enough. McFred essentially does the job of one DM. I will rather have a quality DM like Casemiro, Kante or Ndidi as a sole DM to dovetail Pogba and Bruno. Ole knows his defence is shit and he tries to protect them with 2 DMs even against bottom sides. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Lana1(m): 6:03pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
elampiro:On this thread, people have complained many times over about Pogba and he always gives the ball away. But we should not talk about Fred? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Illimitable: 6:08pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
elampiro: Shaw - 70 corners taken KDB - 83 corners taken Bruno - 56 corners taken Pogba - 0 corners taken. Meanwhile, you expect Pogba to have the same number of created chances as these players. Just admit you don’t like Pogba instead of the hate speech you throw at him. 5 Likes |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 6:10pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
Illimitable: McTominay can do what Ndidi and co do. But he has an ambitious for goal scoring which makes him push forward. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Illimitable: 6:17pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
elampiro: He simply cannot. He lacks the positional discipline to do so. Ndidi, Kante, etc don’t get attracted to the action and then leave their position. It takes plenty of discipline to hold your position and know when to join the attack. McTominay is a CM, he cannot operate alone in the DM position. He’s poor at tackling, interceptions & clearances in comparison to Kante or Ndidi. If he can be used as a sole DM, Ole would have used him there at any point in the last 3 years. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc(m): 6:18pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
elampiro: McTominay is not an accurate or incisive enough passer to play that role, Fred is even a better passer than him, only inconsistent. Fred can't receive the ball on the half turn and McTominay can't pass between the lines accurately or quickly enough. We are combining 2 players for one role. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 6:19pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
Illimitable: Until we get the stats for chances created from open play. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 6:21pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
But we have played Matic and Pogba, we ended up packing the bus with those two. When we had ventured we got stung |

GloryIsaac:Ole gets dragged for what exactly? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Illimitable: 6:32pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
elampiro: Pogba isn’t a DM, he’s wasted there. Prime Matic was very good but what we have now is a shadow of his former self. Kante & Ndidi are the best DMs in the league. If Ole can’t get Kante, he should be snatching Ndidi from Leicester. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 6:34pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
handelex: You’ve been here long enough to know • Poch, bottler to UCL-winning coach • Herrera, average to UCL winner • Poch, master tactician, strong pattern of play And a host of other things we’ll likely not see coming or expect. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 6:37pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
Illimitable: I meant Matic playing as DM while Pogba as CM, but struggled. |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by BARAJ92(m): 6:47pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
Illimitable:Really, this is rubbish, about from his contribution to the last goal which other goal was he involve in against Tottenham, we won Man City without same Pogba. Bruno is far better than him but talent wise Pogba is superior. Without Bruno, I don't know where this team will be |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Expert17: 6:51pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
Illimitable: McTominay is a CM Fred is also a CM. Infact, he never played as a DM for Country or previous clubs. Mctom plays as a DM or CB for Scotland. We have two experienced DMs he could learn from - Matic and Carrick. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 6:51pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
elampiro: Fred makes the lineup simply because of the energy he brings to the midfield, but his shortcomings are a cause for worry. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 6:57pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
Expert17: Neither Fred nor McTom can hold that role alone regardless of whatever training they go through. This thing was discussed some months ago. |
