Nani has bossed this league before. He will offer far more than Mata and Lingard. What we lack is players who can take the ball in split seconds to the final third.

When Valencia did that for us against CSKA and some other teams, some people said he should have done better by playing like Neymar. Lol

Now we have players who can hardly defend let alone carry the ball 10 yards. What we hear is they are trying in their primary duties. But Valencia took out Musa and yet provided a great attacking play from defence. Another person compared him with that Bayern Munich winger. How can one compare an attacking play from a full back of Val and a Bayern player who played number 11 position?
I like Nani and yes he was great once but not dependable at all.
If Memphis actually performed to standard this would've really been a scary team to face their is still time though.
All memorable LVG teams I can remember have that maverick winger am talking Figo and robben.
The only players LVG canned wey vexed me na Maria and to some extent Rafeal.

Of course the was a concrete reason,they both sucked arse.
Chica spent most of his time on madrid bench and a decent performance in Portugal doesn't guarantee a starting shirt.
The thing is, you lot are only remembering the good times and none of the bad.
You don't remember how hot and cold nani was or how inept hernadez will look in our current style of play when he has zero space to run into and nobody creating anything for him,
Losing Rafeal is even understandable since he is almost always injured.
We're still in the race.

Nani would have done something. I know he is inconsistent. But he was always consistent whenever he was allowed to do on the field whatever he wanted. When he had no completion. When Ronaldo was here, Nani blew hot and cold.

When Valencia broke his leg in 2010 season Nani upped his game after becoming the main winger and a great creator. Valencia returned, Nani's confidence was rocked again, then Val went on a second long spell injury, then Nani lifted his game and became the main winger of the team. He also had some inconsistencies whenever young was fit.

This is the time he was suppose to carry us again with little on no competition on the right wing.

Too bad too, Valencia is on his third long term injury since joining Manchester United. I pray he and Luke Shaw return to the level they were before they got injured, at least.

Rafael was weak defensively, particularly against technical players and dribblers. He and Evra were clueless to the technicality, dribbling of such players as Silva, Nasri, Hazard, Moses, Sturridge. Even Oscar tormented us.

Rafael was good going forward and running to match the pace of such players like Bellamy and Milner.

And you think Nani is? Abeg, this is reality not some fairy tales

If we had Nani, I bet you we would have scratched wins from 70% of the games drew. He has the pace to carry the ball into final third. He has the dribbling to go past markers. He has the skills to go past bodies in a tight packed defence. With Nani the space will appear in the final third. Then others will score from one of the numerous clear cut chances. He can break a defender's waist at short notice from a tight position.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:15am On Dec 06, 2015

All the players you people are waiting for will not come. We are going to have a dry January. Then next summer we will speculate from May to August.

Then September we will buy Lukaku or Vardy. We will buy one winger from Tottenham. Buy Alli. Then a new season starts.

Robben has said he will like to be in Bayern until 2017.

Chicha will always spend most of his time on Madrid bench because he was on loan as a backup to what they had. He proved his mettle when called upon by scoring 9 goals in 1,358 mins and when he came back he had improved in his team involvement.

How inept will he look when we all saw what he could do when called upon against Newcastle only for the Keeper to save his shot. Also his last match in the UCL qualifier against Brugges where he saw some chances but couldn't convert because of the obvious reason that he wasn't happy cos he knew he was going.

Chicha wasn't given enough chances to prove himself like it was given to RVP and Rooney. LVG sold him for no good reason.

Rafael was always injured. So also were Smalling and Jones. Why haven't they been sold as well? Yes, we knew Nani to be blowing hot and cold but we could've still held on to him as a squad player. Nani on his day can single-handedly win you a match. He sold those players for no good reason and we are suffering it now.

Concrete observations there.
Yesterday Bastian Schweinsteiger had a shot sail narrowly over the bar and he got subbed after that. Someone asked why he hit that shot in the first place, didn't he know retaining possession was more important to Loius van Gaal that attempts on goal?

It sounded funny and real at the same time smh.

Am not saying Chicha is a bad player, far from it but doing well in Madrid is nothing new,Adebayor did well in Madrid.
A one off performance against two teams doesn't tell the whole picture.
Our current playing style doesn't call for a poacher see how teams defend against us and the little to no chance we create.
Jones was always injured and his place in this team isn't guaranteed yet,
Rafeal lack of playing time is why Val looks so good as a RB
Nani's inconsistency aside,your point is also based on the fact that we can keep all this players. Impossible.
Or give them enough playing time to make that happy also impossible.
Remember we gave Nani a brand new contract he had to leave because playing time.
We can't keep everybody.
We're also not suffering 3 points away from 1st place isn't bad.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:47am On Dec 06, 2015

This is the difference between Nani an Chicharito.

- Nani is the best player in his team. Van Persie is 13th best in same team.

- Chicharito is 9th best in his team. Chicharito has no Assist.








Nani is a winger, Chicha is a striker. Our problem is not striking, it's creation. Fast creation.

chrisley024:
clueless man. LB is the reason we can't score. should be sacked if we crash out on Tuesday

We are not adequately covered in the left back. It was the position we started the season with one player. Blind and Rojo were LCB.

However, defenders are very instrumental in propelling the forwards to be more effective. You remember the difference in our play once Luke Shaw broke his leg in PSV.

Look at Alaba, Marcelo and Alves.

And it's official. Nani is the best player in the Turkish league.

Not just the best but by far the best with 7.71 rating. The rest coming at 7.5

How we allowed Nani and Di Maria to leave same window beats my imagination. I lamented about this last summer.

Maybe van gaal needs to allow this guy start taking the team talks before games;

"We're disappointed of course, "YOU need to finish". If you want to win, "YOU need to finish". In the first half, they got some chances with set-pieces. We were dangerous as well in the first few minutes of the game. In the 2nd half, I think we deserved the 3 points. We created the chances but I keep repeating myself, "YOU NEED TO FINISH"!

“The fans are disappointed and we are as well
with the result so we have to move on. Of course this was an opportunity to be at the top of the table, that's why we're all disappointed with that draw."

" If i can say something about the team spirit it is that everybody works really hard and everybody is working for each other. We don’t give away chances, and we are well organised defensively. We need a little bit of luck maybe with our chances. We have to recover, get our minds clear and go on to the next game. It's a very important one.”

cheesy

DEAR JOSE;

I would like to thank you for helping chelsea win
the title last year. It had been a while. You are
one of the best football managers in the world
and you have an impressive cv to prove this. I
wont say I was happy when you left chelsea the
first time because I was one of those who believed
wrongly that managerial stability was key to club
success, Sir Alex and Mr Wenger had been
dominating the league prior to your arrival and you
broke that monotony with cutting edge ideas and
brilliant man and game management.

I will forever as a fan be happy that you came because at that time you were what was needed.
But these days one would be forgiven for thinking
that all your prior success has gotten into your
head and you have lost your way. There seems to
be a dark cloud hanging over you and the only way
to emerge from under it is to pack your bags and
leave while you can retain some dignity and class
which is something I think you have always been
short on. Somewhere along the line in your career, you stopped thinking of yourself as a great manager and decided that you would make a better god as well. Well, Karma is a baitch and now the whole world sees you for the fraud you have become.


When you were re-appointed as chelsea manager, I
was not happy despite all the cheers and jubilee
from the fans. My reasons were very simple. As
a human being you thrive too much on controversy and I feel like chelsea had come too far, winning the elusive CL trophy, the europa cup and a few other minor trophies in your abscense trying to rebuild our image as a club and I felt as though re-hiring you may bring trophies but they would come at the expense of our already dodgy club reputation and sustainable footballing. I was proved correct when you promptly ;


1-sold our best player for 2 seasons to a league rival.

2-brought in 'etoo' as a striker and loaned/sold
'lukaku' who was younger, more eager and
only needed guidance to become a long term
option upfront.

3-sold 'david luis' who was a fans favourite and did
not bother to replace him.

4-blamed players for losses but claimed praise for
successes.

5-demoted your medical staff for no reason.

6-sold good players and bought terrible
replacements.

7-falcao?

Only the deluded would think you can arrest this
poor form. Chelsea stand to drop at least 7 more
points before january when you may or may not
be able to bring in new players which may or may
not help. All these reasons and more are why I think you have finally come to a reckoning with fate. Please resign and let someone esle try. Maybe Roman will call you back after a few years again.

revenge ke, I am being factual, martial should be scoring for fun since he is the next thing to sliced bread, he was bought to score goals, this is united not crystal palace. He has been playing regularly without scoring, I don't care about that all we need is goals. Even as giroud is loathed by le arse's he still scores them needed goals.
