Such a dumb question!

Such a dumb question! Someone lost a derby game after a horrible performance, instead of finding a quiet place to reflect on his performance, the idiot went to fight. Rubbish

Scummies.. I so much love the tears

Let's call a spade, a spade; Lukaku is just an average player. He's not good enough to carry the mantle of our attack. I wouldn't go for Morata either because they are the same thing. He wouldn't have been good for us either. They are both the same version of average strikers the only the difference is that one is white and the other is black. C'est fini!

eph12:

What exactly should I look out for in the highlights? How Lukaku was spoiling ball for everybody?

dmcdad:

I strongly disagree on this... Morata and Lukaku same version? Haba mana...

Hakeem66:
If he had done that and city still scored from the corner or header,you would have still blamed him for not using his right foot. I only blame Mourinho for what we are passing through,his tactics are nauseating and cowardice and it's affecting the players. Herrera, miki and even Lukaku form is bn affected by his tactics and I bet you that these guys and they whole team will improve under a coach like Pochetino.

elrony:


We played far worse than those two games, considering we were away from home, there's no way you you'd paint it otherwise.

Like I said earlier in my posts, I won't blame our players for yesterday rather the coward manager

elampiro:


Stop shifting blame to Mourinho.

Manchester City 5 Liverpool 0
Manchester City 3 Arsenal 1
Leicester 0 Manchester City 2
Chelsea 0 Manchester City 1


Mourinho lost 1-2 to a team that had won 6-0, 7-2, 5-0, due to Lukaku's cluelessness and you exonerate the culprit?

The tactics was working until Lukaku spoilt it.

chrisley024:
It is funny all these Ibra, Pogba, Jones, Bailly, etc, played last season against top teams and what happened?. I thought he said he'll change to attacking style when he came newly but looks like the leopard cannot change his spots. I get ashamed watching our game against any decent team. Seriously this is not how we can come close to the likes of Barca, Madrid, Bayern, etc. What we see is our defenders hoofing it to the CF. And the recent excuse is if Pogba is not playing then no hope in attack.

IFearGod:
Lol, is Morata a world class striker? No! bro, let's be factual they are at the same level. Forget about whichever clubs they belong, the truth is they are both average strikers with certain perceived individual 'quality'.

elampiro:


Why is it hard to accept the truth that Lukaku was a complete shyte in that match?
Old man Ibrahimovic made more impact in the limited time he played.

The clear cut chance Lukaku missed came about from Ibrahimovic's ability to retain the ball under tight marking in inside City's box. Ibrahimovic controlled the cross, retain the ball while ensuring body balance, and then played back to Mata who lobbed it over the wall to Martial.

If it were Lukaku in same position as Ibrahimovic, he would have made Mata to look like mumu there. Lukaku would never have thought of controlling and passing back to Mata.

Chances don't come when some members kill clever build up play, or running with the ball into the bush during counter.

We got a very good draw, Sevilla are woeful away from home thus I expect us to grind out a result away and finish them off at Old Trafford.
Elsewhere, PSG should progress, Barca should have too much for that average Chelsea defense and Spurs with their players fit should be able to spring up a surprise against the Old Lady of Italian football.

dmcdad:

Ahhh... Me I be saint ooooo. If na lie ask Chelseafan1

dubylhover:


yea we should see off sevilla,but I actually think Madrid psg is slightly tilted towards Madrid cos of their experience..it also looks like psg aren't that fantastic away from Paris,they both have excellent attackers,the midfield would b key and I see kroos modric dominating veratti rabiot..
as for d Chelsea game,I just have this feeling that Chelsea would knockout barca,yes theres nothing special in this Chelsea,but honestly the same can b said for barca as well,hazard morata Pedro can wreck havoc on that barca defense...

Tval:
These ones no play ball again na bottle dem dey throw like touts.

The real Agbero FC

patrickmuf:
Well, whilst you're right that Madrid have got the prerequisite experience, at the back, I don't see them coping with the threat posed by Neymar and Mbappe, midfield is even especially if Motta is fit, he makes them play so much better...
As for Chelsea, whilst you might want to argue in their favor you've got to remember that Dembele will be back come February and he'd be akin to a new signing, the thought of Messi against Alonso and Dembele against Zappacosta/Moses...

dubylhover:


yea motta would b very key for the partisans cos of that stability he brings at the base of the midfield and his vast experience,y I love d midfield trio of veratti rabiot and motta is cos of their ability to hold the ball under pressure,they don't panic..its just that I don't c psg eliminating Madrid,to conquer this Madrid team in Europe would take more that d physical game,you need to b prepared mentally,and its actually big clubs like bayern,barca that may cause that damage..If I was to wager,I'd definitely go with Madrid..

I actually watch Barcelona this season,their attack isn't that excellent per se,and this new coach has made dem more compact in all areas of d pitch thereby reducing their attacking impetus..honestly if conte gets his midfield combo right against barca,I'd tip them to win

dmcdad:

Morata isn't world class just yet, heck, how many strikers are world class at this juncture? But then, who would you prefer in your team in all honesty? Take cognizance of their individual qualities, team play, eye for goal, link up play, technicality et al into consideration...

hardeycute:
it is just sad the Ukaku stans who are the 'real united fans' won't surface now to defend him but can argue and try to criminalise someone with a realistic and logical reasoning

“If you ask me how did I do at United, I will say it was my best year ever, given the circumstances I was working under. We played football that was quite alright.

"But it’s not football that is appreciated in England, and yet, right now, looking at United, I have to conclude Mourinho is not being criticized while it’s far more boring football.

“I would rather watch City play than United. You need quality in a squad and it’s clear City have a better squad. What United produce now is defensive football. I always played attacking football.

“The proof is that the opposition were always parking the bus. They don’t do that now because Jose Mourinho plays so defensive.”

- Luis Van Gaal

dubylhover:


honestly,there are parts of this I agree with..where he said on obviously you need quality in your squad,that's a major point I have always hammered on,despite our spendings,our players are still bang average its very obvious that city has a more balanced squad with better players...I saw one comment here that if it was pep managing Herrera Nd Mata,that they would b spraying passes anyhow,I just shook my head..d pogba that is spraying d passes anyhow and imposing himself as our most important player is he not playing under mourinho?? that's where quality comes into play,but I still maintain that no matter how good your tactics is,its only as effective as d players used in d system..

but lvg also has a point about mourinho being defensive which is also bad for a brand like united,but the thing I noticed about lvg nd mous tenure is that lvg used possession of d ball to camourflage d weakness of the team nd mou goes defensive when playing against fellow big teams..

the thing is that united must splash the money Nd spend it right..how can we get to the level of Madrid bayern when pogba is the only truly outfield world class player we have,other teams boast like 3 and above in their ranks..mourinho has to take a bunch of d fault for his tactics employed but we should also look deeper into our squad and ask are they really good enough?
