we cant depend on an ageing young as an effective RWF neither can we on Lingard. I think we need a physically strong right winger who will be deputised by januzaj. the kinds of take ons martial does....if not for his physique, he would always be bullied to the grass in most cases. lacazette wouldnt be a bad idea given the non availability of proven strikers...
physique is not a prerequisite for that role, and believe you me. We have talented players in the team. Going out to pay over the odds for similar is not always the case. Between januzaj, Andreas Pereira, lingard, young, Memphis, martial you can't tell me we won't see two guys who'd click into the team all season, with the rest being on the bench.

my guy I'm sure you've been watching a different Stones.
The dude is so out of form lately. he wouldn't have started if Fuenos Mori wasn't suspended.
Dude is good but very overhyped.

seriously?he might b out of form but he was really solid against united anyhow you see it..do you know how many times he walked passed our midfield? did you see how many shots he blocked? both from roo and martial?he might not b in form now,but beileive me,hes not overhyped..he's still young so ther can b inconsistencies.. I watched him closely yesterday and he was spectacular

We don't have to look too far to see how average Lingard is.
Marcus Rashford has played far less games and has already made far more impact than Lingard.
Lingard works hard but he has no end product. I remember the Liverpool game in the Europa league where he was allowed time and space on the ball by the opposition because they knew he couldn't hurt them.
And when he does everything right,his touch most likely than not deserts him when it counts most. He then squinches his face like an albino in heat after messing things up at the vital moment. That's where Martial and Rashford tower above him, and he's supposed to be the older and more experienced player of the trio.

rashford & martial are more clinical yeah? But they are supposed to be strikers too. He & rashford are in their first seasons in the first team, age doesn't always make you better or more composed, we all know this. But like I said they are still young, their games will have ups and downs give 'em time.

Which of the John Stones? The one that was turned inside out by Martial on numerous occassions ??

John Stones isn't better than Paddy Mcnair Abeg.

I don't quite agree,one was being priced 50m and d other is in oblivion now..yes he's been out of form lately but when you watch him on d ball,youd understand y d hype is there..sincerley he doesn't play like an English defender..hes more refined..he just needs toning and consistency..hes sti young

We are 4 behind Arsenal. 5 behind city at the moment. Neither will want to lose that gam so I think a draw might be the most likely outcome of that game.
If that happens they still are above us, and with better GD
Assuming we don't drop any points it is still out of our hands.

City has played one more game. We really have to beat Leicester and keep winning.

Arsenal can beat City at Ethihad. It's not in our hand, but I believe if we win our remaining four matches we will finish in top 4.

Rashford is a better ball player than Kane and Vardy. When Rashford goes out of the box, you would think he is an AM or even a winger.

I hope the arrival of a new CF won't stall his development.

dude seriously?? than kane? Pls don't delude youself..kane is far better a ball player than rashford abeg..

And because Lingard isn't a striker he should keep blowing clear chances he gets in front of goal?

How long do we give a 23-year old to come good?

Ronaldo wasn't a striker initially. Dude was deadly from the wings before he became a goal machine.

Martial bails us out primarily from the left and puts the piss in defenders' shorts with his deadly runs. Creating and scoring match winning goals. When will Lingard graduate to that level so we can have an extra threat offensively?

I believe in points on the board rather than allocating points based on games in hand.
Till United put those points on the table city have a 5-point gap on us.

But I agree we have to beat Leicester. Whether that is possible is another matter.

How many games was Vardy suspended for?

Spectacular?

I'm not sure that word has the same meaning to both of us.

Stones was shaky at best. Rashford gave him a good drilling.

What is your arguement based on? Goals?

Why do we watch football if not for the goals?

Lingard keeps getting into goal scoring positions time after time in the same matches and sometimes struggles to hit the target.

Why bother to get goal side if you won't finish.

Memphis also hasn't helped his cause.


He's more into socializing,partying and hanging out with celebrities. He hasn't bothered to work on improving his game and evolve in terms of what he brings offensively.
He can't do more than his stupid step over on the left wing.play him anywhere else and he's a short-one.

Ronaldo kept working on his game and adapted to criticisms from the likes of Roy Keane.

Memphis has the fans at his back and he is crumbling in his shell. Good luck to him. Martial is about to make his a$$ permanently glued to the bench. Even headless chicken Lingard will start before him.

Ronaldo was even more wayward compared to Memphis..

That Dude dated Sharapova, Kim, Paris Hilton and several Runs girls etc. at United.
In fact a picture collage was made of his several affairs, and they are numerous indeed. grin

Remember his hat trick against Newcastle?
Fegie almost dropped him before the game after it was revealed he hired 5 prostitutes all at once.. cheesy

Even Martial is currently separated from his wife cause he allegedly hooked up with a hooker. tongue

You think it's funny to earn £60k pounds per week at 20 and not be wayward? grin

Not every player can play both wings well, but we aren't even sure he can't play RW yet since he hasn't even been great on his original LW position this year.


Fans are really annoying.
Some fans at my viewing centre already criticize/dislike 20 year old Martial for his immature decision making at times.

I mean these guys are still so young!

We were not allocating points. We were just doing some calculations.

The verdict on Vardy has not been released.

Okay there's no point debating this with you since your arguemrnt is based on goals ALONE! I guess its safe to infer that the guys who do all the running, faking, off the ball movement, assisting are inconsequential, only the goalscorers matter yeah? Okay.

Good some fans are now seeing what I was lamenting about even when he was like in the spotlight. Dude is average and has no more potential to showcase like Martial and Rashford, he's not going to get better and I hope he doesn't end up like Cleverley. If we get a better RW, then he should be a backup or we sell him and I know we'd make good money since he's English.

Our 1st priority should be a RW, then, a SS, Griezmann would be perfect for either of the roles, a top CF while Rashford is made the 2nd tier which will also aid his development, a CM/holding midfielder, and a CB if we want to become a top team again in Europe.

The major problem also is getting these players.

u cant base lingards performance on goals since he is not a striker. but dat doenst negate the fact that he is average in any position he plays. the only academy players worth keeping are the ones dat burst into d first team guns blazing. dats why cleverly gibson et al had to leave because they r average at their best. Lingard is no exception. there is nothing worth nurturing in his game

Nope!
Everyone is entitled to his own opinions. I dont know about other United fans but saying LVG is the right man for the job is nonsense to an avid United fan like me. I want the club to keep moving forward. And LVG is obviously not the right man for that job. Simple!!

I don't appreciate the way people slag off our players, yes, lingard is no neymar but how can he improve? Is it not by playing regularly? Ffs cut the young lads some slack, lingard has been consistent I can rate his season a 6.8/10, don't forget his contributions in the games against Chelsea & arsenal (2nd legs) if the youngsters have confidence & are getting playing time they'd only get better. We need to give em time. Not everyone is gon' be a messi or ronaldo. Cheers mate!

Bros, the only reason Lingard could be said to be better than the pathetic Depay is prolly because the former shows a bit more enthusiasm and commitment : quality-wise, I can even make bold to say that Depay is better than Lingard!!!

Lingard shouldn't be anywhere near the 1st team.
As a matter of fact, I would start the equally limited Valencia on the RW in his place sef.

To worsen it, if City manage to edge out Madrid in the UCL semis, we would have to start wishing and praying that they don't win the trophy...ditto Liverpool's Europa trophy hopes.
