I was going to make the Alves comparison too, but just keeping it cool for now. Valencia even defends better than Alves.

Diademk07:If that's what makes successful teams,would even prefer we can be Chelseacityst.germain.Maybe that's why city and Chelsea have achieved more post fergie era. Madrid had to break world transfer record twice to get La Decima.Thats the era we are today. You can't always depend on progidy to win you trophies. You need experience and talented player to get you to the very top and last time I checked they don't come cheap |

Lana1: Bailly is way way better than Smalling with the ball, it is not even close. There is a difference between being calm on the ball and being over confident (Bailly) and truly not knowing what to do with the ball and making panicky clearances (Smalling). Smalling is a good defender, my problem with him is that he has always been a poor footballer. |

folba: Unfortunately, none of those team were dominant for a longer span except for Madrid in the old era but then, they had Raul, a youth player as well. Quality youth doesn't prevent a team from achieving success. In fact, I would prefer our youth players over the likes of Rojo, Herrera, Darmian, ageing Rooney et al. We all saw what the likes of Rashford and Martial did last season. |

Guess a certain Fan of Moyes is seeing how the best Manager to ever manage United after Fergie is turning Stadium of Light to Stadium of Darkness?! The same way he turned Old Trafford from Theatre of Dream to Theatre of Nightmare! Diademk07 should learn from this..... the gap between Jose Mourinho and LVG is wide! He should cease fire like the NDA and save Thread's Pipelines from bombing! |

Lana1..... why?! This is the reason we should get rid of Diademk07 on this thread simply by quarantined him! Seems his infection is fast-spreading, and needs to be contained now! Smalling better on the Ball than Bailly?! |

Diademk07:But I think the new era Madrid has 2 UCL already. I just need United to dominate the home front first . Don't get me wrong am a good advocate of youngsters but you can't just flood your first team with learners.2 or 3 is okay |

Even though I know smalling kinda faded towards the end of the season from his early season performances that made almost all of us nominate him for balon dor i think he has improved on his knowing what to do with the ball coming out of the defence. Mourinho will get the best out of them. Fellaini, depay, rojo, Rooney and herrera were amongst the players that were heavily criticised last season, but we have seen that fellaini has turned to a completely new player under mourinho. We hope that depay and the rest will also improve. |

folba: I was never of the opinion that the whole team should be filled with inexperienced players. That was why I wanted us to sign Kante and Mane although I did want Dembele before he was signed by Dortmund. My proposed midfield was something of a 3-man midfield of Kante - Poole - Rooney for example because I know Rooney would certainly play in the team and that a youth English player such as Harrop could gradually displace Rooney without causing an uproar. I do love youths though because first and foremost, they tend to give their best and are quite loyal, and in the case they also have the quality skills to go along with their play, then you had just hit a jackpot with such players. |

Oasis007: Lol at being a troll. It would take time for me to warm up to Mourinho unless he stop spouting shite such as "some players were van gaaled" only to avoid using the same set of players. Not to mention such players were well spanked by Dortmund in the pre-season and looked shite vs Bournemouth. There's been a lot of shite from his mouth as well. Infact, I really tried to warm to him until he started opening his diarrhoea of a mouth. |

Elxandre: Haba The same Danny Alves that kept Ronaldo in his backpocket in numerous El Classicos? Yes,I am aware of the "Brazillian Fullbacks aren't too good at defending" thingy but Alves is an exception -he is one of the most balanced/complete Fullbacks the world has seen. AV25 has impressed in his new role but make una calm down with the unnecessary comparisons abeg! |

Diademk07: 2+? This just shows how much you hate Herrera. Shinji Kagawa is so good that you adopted his name as your former username here (kagawa10). He is one of your favourite player that should be playing as a proper number 10 that you also use him to rubbish Mata. Somebody once asked you who would pick between Kagawa and Mata as your number 10 and you answered it's Kagawa. Also, you went to the extent of exaggerating how brilliant and fantastic he was when deployed as a number 10 when he was still our player. These are the extents to which you worship him and he can do no wrong. Lo behold! Shinji Kagawa has never achieved a 2+ key passes per match in his entire career as a number 10. He only averaged 1.8 (0.2 higher than Herrera's best) in his best season at Dortmund but you still describe him as a fantastic player. As a matter of fact he was dispossessed 2.1 per match. Since you've now said that a good number 10 should be giving 2+ key passes per match, it simply means Shinji Kagawa too is a shit player. Can you just imagine Shinji Kagawa played full 90mins against Bayern as a number 10 in German Super Cup and couldn't make a single key pass throughout. Last season he only averaged 1.4 key pass. Furthermore, Mata who has been delivering 2+ key passes throughout his career before he came to Man Utd is also a shit player according to you but Shinji isn't. Your usual way to rubbish him is to always say he's a SS. I could remember one post you made in the past where you questioned why Moyes went to buy Mata when we already had Kagawa. This is exactly why you hate them so much. It's just the same thing you have been showing here if a player you don't like is bought, you'll continue finding faults to rubbish such player. Ditto Mourinho. Your sense of judgement is totally faulty and biased. We can now see your hero, your god, Shinji Kagawa is a shit number 10. 1 Like |

AdisaOwala: How is it your problem? Poole is more important than you to the club BTW If you don't want to see youth, then you shouldn't be supporting manutd because it was founded on the ground of youth teams. You know nothing bTW and should stop quoting me. |

You folks kinda funny. pfft, see y'all arguing about Bailly and Smalling ability on the ball... And you want to pair them in our defence , Watch out guys, Our best defensive duo right now is Blind/Bailly.... Thank God Oasis007 understood what i said |

tess1: And where was he mostly deployed last season? Central midfield! The fact is Kagawa isn't just a 10 but a playmaker, I've stated it on here on many occasion. As a matter of fact, his best season for Dortmund in 11/12 for example had him dropping deep to orchestrate the play while Gundogan was the offensive box-box CM. Prior to that, Dortmund was pathetic for the first half of that season because they were reeling from Sahin loss and had no one to replace him as an Orchestrator except for a young Gundogan who was more of a box-box CM whenever he played in the CM. They had to depend on Gotze brilliance while both Kagawa and Gundogan were relegated to the bench until the former later got injured and Klopp had to go back to the drawing board. It was at that time Klopp started deploying Kagawa in a slightly deeper role to orchestrate the moves while Gundogan created the space to be exploited with his dribbling/surging runs and from there, they clinched the double. I see similar thing happening with Silva and Gundogan in the midfield for City because Silva is a similar playmaker as well unlike Debruyne. |

ChristineC: What's that rubbish BTW? Malignant swell spreading to the spine? You're just a fool who's trying to make sense! For the records, you have little comprehension skills. Even most people knew I was joking because I've already had a lengthy discourse on Pogba prior to that and I even clarified in my subsequent post that I wasn't being serious before the next post. And stop seeking ny attention here because you won't get one as I'm allergic to a daft toad such as yourself! 2 Likes |

tess1: Poole started out as midfielder before he was moved to the defence due to his defensive skills and Ariel strength. Get your fact right first. Even van gaal gave him a cameo in the midfield vs midgetlland. |
