TheLequte:Did you really see what I did per position? I showed you players available per position, if that's not depth, then I really don't know what's depth... Evenz if you want us to restrict a player to one position, you'd see we still have good numbers... |

patrickmuf: Pogba, Fred, VDB edge out Gundogan, Rodri and KDB? Pogba cannot slot into any AM role. That’s the sole reason Bruno was brought in. How can it be difficult to choose on the RW when we’ve all been wailing for the club to bring in one? Sancho has played only one competitive game for us, and he suddenly matches up to Mahrez who has been in EPL since? Create your second team, that should point out something to you. 3 Likes |

nitrogen: What about them? Rodri 2.1 tackles per game Fred 2.7 tackles per game Rodri 81 passes per game with 91% pass accuracy Fred 60 passes per game with 87.7% pass accuracy And we all know that Fred struggles with receiving the ball from the defense and under pressure from a press. Of all the points you guys can make about our squad vs City's squad Rodri is not better than McTominay (or even Fred) as a DM should not be one of them. Rodri posted very good stats as DM at Villareal, Atletico, City which led to his meteoric rise in such a short time but somehow McTom and Fred who are always sharing duties (unsatisfactorily) are better than him? 6 Likes 1 Share |

ChristineC: I don't think Spain is as lucrative as it used to be again.. Knowing raiola.. He would want a team that can pay big. England cam guarantee that. But I feel Halland would be tempted by Bayern.. Lewandowski is already getting old. Likelyhood of United Landing Halland is low. Since we failed to land him b4.. Plus this Pogba Crysis.. I feel Rashford should just be 9 next season.. |

afrodoc2: Reason I suggested Rodri vs Fred is that both are almost the same. There are other stats that can be considered (for the sake of the argument) which shows that Fred is also not a bad player. Tbh, City’s style makes Rodri a better passer of the ball, if we dominate play every darn time, even McTom will have high number of passes and high accuracy. We can have Varane at the back plus Fred or McTom as DM. We will be fine. |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 6:15pm On Aug 21, 2021 |
nitrogen: Rodri's career average which includes his time at lowly Villareal and bus parking Atletico is 64 passes per game and 91% pass accuracy. Career average 91% pass accuracy. He is not a good passer because he plays at City, he plays at City because he is a good passer. And i never said we won't be fine. You like answering questions that were not asked. Are you saying Fred is a better DM than Rodri or are you saying McTom is a better DM than Rodri? 7 Likes 1 Share |

You people will pick one position and base all your arguments on it...How about RCB, LB, CF where we clearly best them? It's only in that DM position which I acknowledged in my post that they're arguably better... Let talk Varane vs Stones Shaw vs Zichenko Cavani vs Jesus... 2 Likes |

Of course they would tell us Man Utd's and Man City's teams are on the same level because that leaves one thing, coaching/managing. Sometimes i wonder if these people watch football at all. How can you ignore the fact that a coach would likely play 2 CMs to provide a decent makeshift defensive shield? And those CMs better not go forward, hence collapsing the purpose for which they were brought together when one of them should be playing a traditional CM role. Besides, even as players that are much better utilized as CM, you never see adjectives like "really good", "great", when we talk about them in comparison with other central midfielders. Even though i believe Man Utd should consider firing Ole if he fails again since others were not given enough in time and leeway. Besides, it's very obvious the man is learning on the job, and he makes mistakes worth considering in a decision to extend his contract or not, especially more recently the goalkeeper issue in the Europa finals(I have still not watched the penalties. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 5 Likes |
