patrickmuf: Mkhitaryan likes to be very direct while Mata is more useful in the slow build up. The more direct player is usually the better player, but he needs good build up players around him to help his directness. The more direct player is likely going to make more wrong passes, fail to make a good first touch and lose possession because he is thinking of how to attack with the ball rather than making a pass (backward, sideward, forward). So a player like Mkhitaryan might go to a team like Barca or Bayern and excel while a player like Mata might go to such teams to make up the numbers. In United, Mkhitaryan might play better with a player like Pogba and Martial. These guys take men away from the number 10. He will be able to do counter with a player like Rashford when Pogba gives that long pass. |

SailorXY: On your last paragraph, some of you are mistaking genuine match day criticism of players to mean condemnation. That was what Lekkie073 just did. To set the record straight, I never called Pogba any of those names - Barber, haircut, waste of money -, but considering the amount of money that he was bought with and the fact that that he was performing far below Kante, he deserved the scrutiny. 1 Like |

elampiro:At this point, we have to rate them based on their ability to perform on the right wing cos Zlatan is more likely to be given the nod to play behind Lukaku and for his ability to bring Valencia into the play by constantly drifting inside and helping us retain possession, I'd opt for Mata rather than Mhki on the right... |

elampiro:I think "genuine" matchday criticism should not apply to new players for obvious reasons, but that's my opinion. If Pogba was playing poorly now & you propose he's offered as burnt offering to the gods of Edo, nobody will oppose it. If you made Kante your benchmark that's nobody's fault. It's because you were influenced by opposing fans who were so eager to ensure your new players don't settle in well. There's no rule that says who started better will come out tops after all is done. I wasn't even making the post because of you, it's just a general observation. |

lekkie073: Try harder. Nothing in there to suggest I meant waste of money. Just a normal match day defence of Rooney where being made scapegoat. |

eph12: There is lekkie073: Direct comparism between Rooney and Pogba while quoting Pogba's price tag after a poor match. Pogba was not the main culprit for that poor game but alas, he was mentioned along with his price tag. |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:20pm On Nov 19, 2017 |
paafin: That was because Rooney's weekly wages of 300k was mentioned week after week. Again, mention of price tag didn't mean I said it was a waste of money. Reason maturely. It meant he was suppose to bear the biggest blame ahead of Rooney. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:26pm On Nov 19, 2017 |
lekkie073: You are the one that is being emotional. Nothing in those screenshots to suggest Pogba was being called a waste. No player, whether 1 million pounds or 100 million pounds that didn't get match day bashing last season. Moreover, Pogba was mostly shite last season. Herrera and Valencia won the team player of season when we had Pogba. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:31pm On Nov 19, 2017 |
SailorXY: Listen to yourself. How can genuine match day criticism not apply to new players? Schneiderlin, Fellaini, Darmian, Butner, Lindelof, Di Maria, Falcao, Tosic, Obertan, etc should never have been criticized because we had a few players who turned it around the second season? Some guys are still saying Pogba is yet to play against the big 6, so we should be calm and not carried away. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:35pm On Nov 19, 2017 |
lekkie073: I never said Pogba is lazy or shitty. You are trying too hard to make a point that will never exist. I remember saying Pogba was over holding the ball and doing unnecessary leg over. I was one of those who was very lenient with Pogba because I knew he had potentials. You no know ball. Match day criticism is normal, mostly after a defeat to a small team and everyone here pounced on Rooney while protecting others. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:40pm On Nov 19, 2017 |
Lekkie073, I am still waiting for you and your cohort to show me where I said Pogba was a WASTE OF MONEY. If you cannot, shame on you for being a pathological liar. |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 3:46am On Nov 20, 2017 |
Mystic1: What are you talking about? Nothing like that. Go back and read again, it was about having poor match day or not being able to help the team. Also that Pogba was allowed to have 90 minutes always no matter his performance. Most importantly, I am still waiting for when I said he is waste of money. |
