KingAlabi:Our own defensive play is shaky due to having no decent DMF, so when teams do attack us (like Newcastle courageously did yesterday, to their credit) we can be shaky. Hopefully with most teams we will score enough to overcome our defensive problems, but it will be interesting to see how that will work out against the top teams. |

Expert17: Expert, you saw that Salah goal? Salah tucking in with Trent providing the cross? Why don’t we have full backs that can do that simple task? This is why our games are very stiff until a moment of individual brilliance comes from any of our players. |

Illimitable: Easy with the curse words please. I am also with you on the DM role. Herrera as a DM, would have been better than the 3 things we currently have today. And yes, he played as a DM for us albeit not primarily. |

Illimitable: Transfer rumors that linked us to Trippier during the transfer window, make sense now. For now, we can start Dalot against low, -blocking teams. At LB, Telles and Shaw can cross so well. |

I just read alot of comments about Ronaldo's first goal, and also the heavy blame on the goalkeeper for letting the ball slip from his hand which led to the goal. Firstly, lets look into Greenwood's shooting technique and the goals he's scored from it. He's usually shoot low with power and accuracy. When he (Mason) cut in and took that shot, the ball was flying low to the left side of the goal post, the goalkeeper saw this and moved a bit from his initial position to make the safe. But unfortunately, the shot deflected the leg of a Newcastle defender forcing the ball to change direction and met the goalkeeper off balance. Even though the goalkeeper tried to return to his initial position, his timing had been tampered with and hence the inability to catch the ball properly. Ronaldo, like a smart striker that he his, had already read the ball even before Mason took the shot, then made a clever run for a possible rebound which indeed came and was well converted. Before you reply or disagree, I want to be sure you have watched the highlight well enough to catch those tiny details 14 Likes 1 Share |

Expert17: Against teams that are going to pack the middle because of the Ronaldo factor, AWB should be on the bench. odizeey: Fergie came 2nd in his first full season at United. I think 8-9 points below the champions(Liverpool). The subsequent seasons were awful but you have to understand the level of shitty players Sir Alex inherited. The squad he inherited hadn’t won the league in 20 years. |

BARAJ92: Against the big teams, AWB is excellent. He’s probably the best 1-v-1 defender in Europe. I saw this dude put Sterling in his back pocket. Sterling couldn’t get a sniff around him and that Sterling had been destroying defenders until he faced AWB. |

Illimitable: "Some" of your takes here are always based on well research facts. I'm not gonna lie, you speak facts and you're consistent. But what I don't enjoy about some of your takes are the insults. I remember some guys saying you're coogar lol, whoever that is lol!!! Listen man, you must not insult or start the name calling thing when people don't agree with your assertions. Share your points without insulting, I know it's banter season. But banter should be football related, not personal! Back to the matter on ground. Is Herera a DM? The correct answer is No!!! Has he played in the DM position for United? The correct answer is Yes!!! Did he play well in the DM position? Yes!!! Herrera didn't play enough games as a DM for United but he was always very on point when called upon in that position. Stop the name calling man, doesn't make sense!!! 6 Likes |

KinzyeWriter: Even if the first goal was as a result of a goalie mistake, United forced that mistake. Had Greenwood shot off target, the goal wouldn’t have happened. Ronaldo was the only player that made a move to follow up on that shot. Even the Magpies defenders all had a mannequin challenge. Ronaldo’s intelligence and instincts just smelt something could spill and he benefited from it. If it was that easy, how come several United players didn’t make the run Ronaldo made? If he wasn’t on the pitch, United wouldn’t have scored from that passage of play. Kudos to Ronaldo. 18 Likes |

Alejandrah: How’s this different from my initial comment? Illimitable: The mere fact that I qualified the sentence with “As a DM” should have told anyone with brain cells that I never said his primary role was DM but he can play as one. If I thought he was a primary DM, I wouldn’t use that qualifier “as a DM.” But this is Nairaland, where people read what they want to see and start arguing without brains. 2 Likes |

BARAJ92: He has improved his positioning. I remember he used to abandon the back post when defending a cross. I have not seen him do that this season. Against teams where United are parking the bus or playing a low block, you won’t find any RB better than AWB in England. That’s his expertise. |
