All these panic-buy ko necessary. Let's start from scratch again. Allow CR7 to leave. Sell some of the overpaid twérps at the Club. Sell most of the so called senior players.

Draft in talented Academy Players, play them week in week out. Give them the fuckin chance to prove their selves, they can't be worse than the present team.

Exactly!!!

Adding Casmeiro to the present situation at ground won't solve anything

Expert17:


Coach wey wan play from the back with Maguire, Shaw and De Gea

I swear our goal difference go enter -20

odizeey:
We need a CM also. We don't have any proper CM in that team. De Jong can step in there if he wants to come.

But That DM is the Koko.

We've been fielding makeshifts in that position for so long.

Why can't VDB fill the CM role?

odizeey:

I no know where Mourinho see am from.

sergej milinković-savić is there but United no wan commit money buy am.

ChristoBam:

Till today, most analysts blame the exclusion of Rodri from that UCL final as the reason for City's loss.

Avoiding signing a DM, thinking you'll defend out of possession by pressing and tactical fouls is a huge mistake I'm glad ETH found out he was about to make.

I'm telling you. Many people don't know the importance of that position. Make that deal just click. If we can get Savic also then I'll be happy.

ChristoBam:


Caisemero will work for his money sha. Omo.

I don’t think he can work with Maguire.

ETH will have to start playing Bailly, Varane and Lisandro. If he wants that modern attacking football with a high line, he needs pacy defenders.

If he starts Maguire again on Monday, then he deserves to be sacked. Maguire does not fit ETH’s style. Something has to give. ETH will have to start parking the bus to accommodate Maguire or Maguire has to go to accommodate ETH.

He's not shown that he's ready to fill it.

He needs to do more. I don't even see him as a CM. When scholes or Xavi, or Modric control midfield you go feel am.

Or a player that has the brains to read situations and can set offside traps.

Trevor012:

What does Martinez have to do with anything? Una sabi type out of point ehnn. Typing nonsense as usual. Your midfield is leaking cause any time they get pressed they get scared and lose the ball. You have Mctominay,Fred and Bruno that are useless passers, Not press resistant, cannot hold possession and have Zero technical ability. Casemiro is playing with krose and modric two absolute gem that are press resistant, good passers and have elite technical ability. Casemiro alone won't solve anything and will even suffer more. You must be delusional if you think a player of De jong mould is not more essential than Casemiro that anybody can do is job.

This.

forget our mumu club. The should go for that guy instead of De Jong.

What if De Jong eventually comes and boom he flops. Money goes down the drain again.
SMS is better and cheaper.

We should cut our losses and return him to Ajax for 20M.

Our problem is we like buying non specialist to solve a position.

Naso we buy Sancho to solve RW.
Buy person wey be say go boldly say "Na my work be this. Leave am for me."

United don’t have a single intelligent centre half with such skill set. Van Dijk is the master of that art and maybe this is why he doesn’t get dribbled past often. Setting offside traps is Liverpool’s greatest strength.

Liverpool’s high line works because they know how to press and win the ball high up the pitch with great success.

They also have a sweeper keeper whose starting position is at the edge of the box while the outfield players press aggressively in the opposition half.

And when all these parameters fail, they have genuine pace to recover the ball more often than not and they have got one of the best goalkeepers in one v one situations.

Just look at their offside trap stats. It’s sickening.

Ellexy:
This.

Most people here nor know ball normally.

So sad. They should take him and give us Antony

ETH didn't say DDG has to play short passes from behind. He said they can also go long when the chance for a pass is not available. So he doesn't understand why DDG made that mistake.

Casemiro will not solve anything but De Jong will come with magical wand and solve everything

Ellexy:
This.

But De Jong plays alongside McFred and Maguire at Barcelona

odizeey:

It’s baffling to me that professional footballers cannot pass their way out of a press. It’s like saying a university graduate cannot read and write.

It begs the question, what has Ole been coaching these players in the last 3 years? Even if it means having 5 or 6 players around the box to create more options for the man on the ball, United should do better with this skill.

But I already suspect it isn’t about having many options, it’s because United defenders are slow to think, slow to receive the ball and turn away from danger. It’s like they always panic while with the ball and do something very stupid with it.

You even noticed how good Alison is in one v one situations, he's the best in that category.

Of course more nonsense as usual. You just get Skull without Brain inside. Casemiro Skill set is tackles, interceptions etc We have similar players already even if not up to his level. We have zero players with De jong Skillset in the team. No player in the Sqaud offers what a player like de jong will bring. Ability to progress the ball from deep, Press resistant, brilliant passer under pressure, and can create from deep etc. Shey Is Fred and mctominay that will play the Modric/Krose role here ha be. If you dey near me before I for plank you for all these nonsense things you dey type.

I wonder how Alvarez and Martinez played as a DM for ETH last season

The fact that you consider De Jong a replacement for McTom and Fred shows you that there is a big hole in our DM that must be filled asap.

You don't even know what McFred have been playing sef

Which player are you even comparing to Casemiro in this squad.

Then need to put this guy in firing squad.
