What is wrong with them?
Watched Erikson for that year before he went to Inter Milan, watched him at Inter Milan as well. He was bang average. That's almost 3 years of football. But seems he got his groove back at Brentford. It's still embarassed though.

Martinez is Ten Hag's second choice from his CB options in Ajax. The first choice is 5'11 and there were complaints about his height. The second choice is 5'9....

Malacia is a prospect just like Amad and the likes. It's 50-50 with those.

We've been in discussion with Dejong for months now. And man still hasn't said his full yes. He's still really hoping to stay at Barca.

All of these players apart from Dejong could potentially be squad players. I know it's hard to imagine with all our players looking shitty now.

He might have to settle for a shared role with Eriksen assuming we get all our targets and if ETH elects to play Lisandro as a DM then it's a battle between Eriksen/VDB/Bruno...I don't know who wins but I know who will lose out and it's definitely Bruno unless he modifies his game...
I think you are joking with this your conclusion.

Malacia is not like Amad in terms of experience...Malacia was the starting LB for Feynoord the 3rd best team in the Eredivisie whilst Amad barely played up to 3 games with the first team of Atalanta.

Eriksen was not bad at Inter, Conte's set up doesn't accommodate an AM hence his struggles...

Lisandro is no slush, he can do it as a DM, LB and CB without a drop in quality...He is a starter in that Argentine team.

De Jong's issue has more to do with Barca and not us. I'm sure once his issue with Barca is sorted out, he'll join...

I'm certain Lisandro, FDJ, Antony and Eriksen will play huge roles as starters or rotating starters if we all get them...Even Malacia might displace Shaw before October if Shaw doesn't step up...

Now, it is important you know that no new signing is guaranteed to start, they're here to replace those who prior had under performed but in any case where existing players step up, you don't expect the new player to start jist because he is a new signing and not starting doesn't mean the new player is trash and was not a necessary buy...

Correction. Not only compared them. He said Lemar was far better than Mbappe.

DJ Buffonge that he said was better than Angel Gomes was recently let go by a Dutch 2nd division club.

Nobody gets it right 100% of the time but the guy’s takes are scoring very close to 0%. grin

I don't see how such goal contribution will sit down for passing the ball around. fans tend to narrow fernandes to just goals and assists. there's no need further need dissecting Bruno's contribution outside goals and assists, I believe it has been done on these pages severally.
the man features in the top brackets for almost every segment. he has also demonstrated an ability to pull a team forward by himself. he may have had a poor season by his own standards last time, I believe what he needs is adequate rest.
there's no way the manager drops an x-factor just because.

A midfield 3 of FDJ, VDB and Eriksen is good enough against any other midfield in the league...If we need more grit, Lisandro (Assuming he is signed as reported) can play as DM with one of the aforementioned 3 on the bench.

Ha ha ha.. . I'm guessing dem send General Bruno to go buy Okpa... If not

Pretty sure what Van Gaal needed was a player like Bruno in his team. These ones just want players that will go side to side each time with almost zero risks.

Malacia starting for Feynoord doesn't change the facts that he's still a young potential that'll be eased into the team gradually. I have my money on Shaw as the starting LB next season.

Pretty sure no one's really banking on Eriksen playing as an AM next season. Sure he'll probably still have the same struggles. Btwn, before that move to Inter, he aso had a very average year at Tottenham. So that's years of underperformance, no matter the excuse.

Lisandro is brought in to be a CB. We went from Timber to Torres to Lisandro. If he's not brought in to be a CB, what's the point? Cuz we desperately need a CB.

As for FDJ, Barca is not the reason we've still not agreed personal terms with him. Fact is he's hoping the transfer window closes without him having to move away.

As for the last paragraph, go back to what started this Convo. I never said the signings are trash or close to being trash.

We desperately need a CB? Lisandro can easily slot in as DM in games where we can afford to play Lindelof/Maguire/Tuanzebe...This is a new coach with new methods so, be open to surprises, a couple of players we seldom thought were trash will step up...

As for Eriksen, he has still got it im him. He can easily replace Bruno or VDB whichever way ETH opts to use him...He gives us options, quality options...

Malacia? Time will tell...

Are you really following the reports on FDJ situation?

The x-factor in one system might just be a squad player in another...No one is questioning the quality of Bruno but then, he has to adjust his game to fit in...Can he adjust? Time will tell...

Lol Lindelof/Maguire/Tuanzebu? Already forgetting the previous season, are we? We desperately need a CB and that's the fact. The only position that we've been really linked with multiple players is in that position. Ten Hag wanted Timber, he couldn't get him. Wasn't convinced with Torres even though we were in discussions with him and has decided he wants Martinez. He didn't do all that thinking he'd definitely utilize him as a DM. We've got a slow Maguire and an Injury prone varane as our CB partnership. A new system won't change that fact.

You say Eriksen can replace Bruno/VDB which is my major issue. We've got enough dearth in the quality of the first team to start thinking of squad quality..

As for FDJ, I've been following it every single day. I know the issues with Barca. But I know with all of that, he still wants to say. And won't have any agreement on personal terms with us until Barca agrees a fee for him and they finally have to sell him.

I'm trusting the the manager 100% which everyone should do, including the Portuguese tw*t vying for a move. But still got the little concerns.

Will you rather we sign a DM and then a CB? In Lisandro, we are using a stone to kill 2 birds...We don't have UCL football to look forward to which is a cash windfall so, we have to be every penny wise in the market...

We still have a RB, RWF and possibly CF to sign so, if we can get players who can play 2 different positions as a stop-gap option then it's fine...

When dem talk Malacia, y'all are quick to point out that he's from the dutch league.. . Leeemao

Let's face the truth, that Feyenoord is miles miles better than the rubbish we've been calling MUFC team for the past 3 years.

Now that's what a proper system gives you. Wether you be average or not, a proper system will help mask your deficiencies.

Your team struggles against the Brightons and Crystal Palace of this world and you're busy yabbing another team that is well drilled because you're so stuck on past glories, huh undecided

United, by reputation may not be a small team, but when it comes to balling, we're worse than anything you can imagine.

Y'all better stop moaning about ETH acquisitions and be brave enough to face the fact that we're at our very lowest now.

Building from the ground up ain't no mean feat!

You're still not getting the point of some players pulling up surprises. Some players in Chelsea team were deemed not fit during Lampard's. But Tuchel came in and they seems like phoenix.

Let's keep fingers crossed, we're really in for surprises.

I sha hope these players no go bring their magomago attitudes.

I like that there is competition in that position. Bruno was too petulant last season and his discipline fell off. I still don't see how VDB gets a starting shirt though he could be a valuable member of the team. With 5 subs per match there should enough opportunities for everyone.


Chill, has epl teams agreed on the 5 sub pet match?
