I agree with most of your post apart from signing Aguero. He's been more wasteful than Ibra in front of goal this season and has lost few yards of pace as well.

Personally, I don't want Griezmann. He's more of a fraud as Pogba. He needs everything to be put in place just for him and we already have one (Pogba) to scratch our head over. Moreover, He's not striker but a second striker who depends on having a target man to feed off.

I would rather we go for his team mate, Koke to put Herrera out of his misery although I doubt if he would come here. Another alternative is Monaco's Bakayoko.

Lastly, a playmaking no 6 (Badelj) to replace Carrick in the midfield.

On the other hand, if we were to get Verratti, then I would go for Wanyama or Oriol Romeu to play behind both Verratti and Pogba.

[b] On the striker position, I'm still hoping on Rashford to take on the mantle from Ibra. I believe he's got more potential than Kane and if Spurs could put up with Kane's inexperience before he got where he is, I don't know why we can't do same with Rashford.[b]

With Mourinho still our coach, I'm almost damn sure that the future might be bleak for Rashford at the CF position. Ibra must go for Rash to survive or Mourinho tweaks his formation to accommodate both strikers say in a 3-5-2 formation. Rash needs confidence and time.

You know who vex me but I just don't want to quote him? Na Joěace2020. Seeing that dude later come back to complain made me mad few minutes ago. Why was he complaining? Did we lose? Are we not still unbeaten? So why the wailing? No, he should keep celebrating mediocrity. This same drab display plays out all the time and when we point it out, they overlook it coz we later won. Everything I've complained so far even with Ibra always comes back to vindicate me. The Martial complaint also vindicated me.

Mourinho has publicly lambasted Mhiki, Martial, Smalling, Shaw etc on their first mistakes. But will foolishly declare that Ibra and Pogba can't be touched. He will never criticize them, rather he'll divert the attention by talking of the FA being against him, which is true but shouldn't stop us from wining a fuckîng Hull City.

Our first leg against Hull we won by the last minute via Rashford.
Second game, we managed to win 2 goals.
Third game they won us in what was our most pathetic display of the season.
4th game, they held us to a draw result.

Check the pattern. Nothing changes. We always struggle and Mourinho will never change tactics. But no, since we are unbeaten, don't complain.

You are complaining about the very same thing i complained about. What i believe is everyone should tone down on the blame game when we are winning but that doesn't mean we don't know that there's is a lot wrong with the team. I was watching some of the fan videos on the full time devils channel on YouTube and i concurred with many of the guys who said obviously this team isn't good enough and that it's more of what they are than mental. We are lazy and wasteful and it's all down to the kind of tactics, strict 4-3-3 whether rain or shine formation and old tired legs like the Ibrahimovic's and Carrick's, not forgetting those who are not putting the shirt first. I was watching Liverpool vs Chelsea and i swear i could almost self-service to how the Liverpool players close down players and make Chelsea players play rubbish. I didn't even need to look at the slick one-two passes. Just watching how they made Chelsea look average was so much fun and i was happy and at the same time disgusted because United never does that. So there's a lot wrong with this team and i will be the last person to use a Wigan match to say we are back. At the moment we still aren't and on Sunday Leicester City will come out like true Bpl champions to rub it in and escape the relegation zone and lets not forget how we play when we away.

Lana1 and Dopejemi, please, you guys should not fight. Haba. E never reach that level. We be United fans, make we no fight each other. Reserve that for our rivals. Please, let it go.

But he led us to the Fa cup title last season and almost got us into the top 4 if only he had been fast-tracked into the team earlier before Rooney managed to put in his useless display in the role.

Moreover, how old were Ronaldo and Rooney when they were being thrust into the first team? Even Pep seems to be banking on a young Gabriel Jesus in his team.

As long as the team creates, Rashford is good to go.

Rashford isn't a striker. Gabriel is.
I used to champion rashford as a striker until i learnt that he played wide coming into the academy and he hasn't done much playing there this season. I have serious doubt about the guy.

inFamouz:
mumu de headless chicken has 3assist with a better defensive stat than the one with good awareness , good movement, good reading and understanding with passing of exam with washing dirty plates clean.

The headless chicken often plays in a 3-man midfield as well as the opponents believing he isn't worth their time to man-mark.

Did you see how Kante was man-marked against Spurs? Even against Pool, as soon as he got the ball, he was already surrounded unlike the useless headless chicken we got here, who has got all the time in the world while the opposition man-marks Pogba and Carrick yet did nothing!

Playing wide in the academy doesn't mean he can't be a striker. His qualities are more suited to the centre role than the wing. There are many young players who played in one role at certain time but eventually carved out a different role for themselves at the end of the day. For example, Drogba was a defender at the academy, Puyol and Piszeck were strikers and so-on.

What's more important is if his qualities are suited to the said role and right now, Rashford looks more of a striker.

Bottom three conversion rate.

una really believe dis rashford, de guy no special for my eye at all.

For a striker, he's good apart from his hold-up play but with time when his body has filled up, he will learn how to use his body to shield the ball.

However, if you're viewing him as a winger like he's played recently, he's nothing special. His dribbling and ball control are not that balanced for a winger.

Preach, bro, preach. Rashford wasn't playing the wings for us under LvG when he shot to fame. He's striking for us and LvG gave him the full trust by making sure Rooney and Co never neared the CF position until he was replaced. Pep is giving Jesus that same kind of confidence and if it works, Aguero will be gone. Rooney was young when SAF gave him a shot and played him in his first team. Let's give Rashford his chance like we've given Ibra when he was performing badly, before concluding Rash can't strike for us.

Don't you think he deserves some matches as CF to see if he can good as last season? He hasn't been fantastic in the wings he's been shunted to, so giving him a chance at CF will be the right thing to do. He might rediscover his form there.

He's got better first touch than Lukaku for example and you're saying he isn't good enough?

Of course, he's not going to be the kind of player who traps long ball while being surrounded like Ibra does but it doesn't make him a poor striker. As a matter of fact, he's got the body to do that by the time his body eventually fills up.
However, as long as we bring him into play and create chances for him, he's good to go.


I didn't hear much about Rashford because at that time, he just got promoted to the U21 after Wilson got promoted to the first team while Powell went out on loan but within few weeks, he was already fast tracked into the first team. He's only got few sub appearances for the U21 at the time and even Fletcher who plays for Westham was ahead of him in the pecking order but he and Wilson got injured at the crucial moment and Rashford got promoted to the first team in his place.

Lukaku was a prodigy,rashford so far ?na still flash in the pan.comparison not fair to rashford,plus lukaku also brings more to the table.
I want him to play the CF role in our FA cup run to really see how far.i was hoping he would be our Kane coming into this season,maybe he still could be.

What does Lukaku brings to the table apart from his experience? He's even worse at trapping those high ball than Rashford..

Okay, he's got better aerial threat..

Anyway, I think Rashford already proved himself last season. But if the coach can't trust him enough, then he should be let go.

How do we know if he's better without being given the chance?

Based on last season and in the few mins he played at the euros, everyone could see he's got better potentials than Kane for example but now, he's not good enough?

I don't even rate Kane,but the sheer number of goals convert me to a reluctant believer.
Cameo don't mean anything.
And this league is strictly "what have you done for me lately".
He hasn't backed up his debut season performance,certainly hasn't done enough to convince Jose to play him has a striker.
I wonder where rashford himself really wants to play? Nobody knows.
