Na experiment wey no work out. Starting ukaku and Ibra together,i don dey curious to see how it will look, we don see am yesterday, It won't happen again.

You see the reason, I said some criticise the manager because it's fanciful to do so, when you point it out, some holier than thou people will start scolding you. Everybody in the media and those associated with the club has been clamouring for Jose to start the combo, when he did it, he is slated. Jose has his faults, but when people decides to give him bad name in order to kill him, it doesn't look good even as a human being.

Oasis007:
"When you tell a club like Man Utd, do you think Milan is not as big as us? You think Real Madrid are not as big as we are?

"I know what a big club is. One thing is a big club and another thing is a big football team. They are two different things.

"When you speak about responsibilities to win the Premier League, Tottenham doesn't have that responsibility because they are not a club with the same history as us.

"Arsenal don't have the responsibility to win it. Chelsea don't have the responsibility to win it. When you speak about big football clubs, you are speaking about the history of the club."

- JOSE MOURINHO

Like i mentioned earlier I did not say categorically that we are doing something right, it's a suggestive phrase.
But in every negative there must be a positive. What we are doing right, is were have improved from 2 seasons ago and last season. Haven't We?

Yes you have... But the bone of contention wasn't about comparisons to previous seasons, was it? You said that in relation to the trolls, that you must be doing something right for trolls to be swarming your thread in recent times.

Anyway, as much as you've really improved compared to previous seasons, I dare say that you are still a long way off especially taking cognizance of the resources you have at your disposal. Hence, I believe there is every tendency that you should have done better than what you're doing now. My point is... At the start of the season it seemed Mou has had everything all figured out and he was actually competing. All of a sudden, he started being a coward and approaching games like an inexperienced manager. And for me, that was where the team started nose-diving.

Well, it's all good though. At least you guys are still in 2nd position. But from every indication, it seems it won't be for long because your coach is definitely running out of ideas. And I would still state that at some point earlier in the season you were playing actually well. But now...?

I have been saying this for long now. Fergie would have dished out his hairdryer against Leicester. We have a lot of nice guys in our team that you can't bench, if not deluded fans will blame the manager.

Every body is entitled to his/her opinion, stop using derogatory words to describe people because of differences in point of view...You criticize Herrera, no problem, another fan criticizes Mou and you say they're deluded...

SIRcumalot:

I think it is spiritual a problem,the kain hate ukaku they inspire I just hope say e no dey read am.
There is a part of me that wants this dude to do so well that he joins Madrid or Barça make I see wetin people go talk then.

Bia! If na play stop am ooooo. Which kind talk be that na? We tell you say we need ball boy? We get enough already abeg.

I couldn't believe United is sinking every GW. At this Rate, we gonna discover Crude Oil at Old Ibrahimovic Trafford.

And yet your fellow fan on here said you must be doing something right for trolls to be overwhelming you guys in recent times... Plus he said your brand of football is attractive, hence the trolls.

Abeg you agree? Talk true....

Fans should blame the manager accordingly, like the game versus city we lost due the managers naivety, and some other examples ofcourse where the manager failed, but most of the players need an iron hand to sit up, Luke Shaw for example is a huge talent, but even LVG complained of him not showing enough bottle. Jose has exiled him for some time now and rightly berated him, he is back with the right attitude and grit. Martial was was dross last season, after the same treatment he is currently our best forward. People were berating the manager for only trying to toughen Shaw and Martial, now the result is showing, Rashford needs the same. Some players don't need such motivations They are always charged up, like Valencia and Lingard they may lack quality but not motivation and grit.

Nice guys like Mkhi who I rate even till now, he started the season well and suddenly regressed, the manager gave him too much of a long rope, still he did not sit up, when he was dropped ? His supporters blamed it on mourinho giving him defensive responsibilities. Some have even started blaming the manager for Rashford recent petulance, that asking him to track back is the reason for his uninspiring displays.forgetting that Rashy is still young and will get better with time, thats why i am not even pissed with his play,he is in a particular phase right now, where he will frustrate You, but will develop into a world beater later. Ronaldo at his age is not posting better numbers.

My point is mourinho doesnt have the freedom to wield the axe, he is ussually blamed for every players misdemeanor.

Mourinho told you this? Same Mou that dropped one of our better players (Herrera) last season to the bench doesn't have freedom?
Same Mou that left a fit Shaw on the bench?
Same Mou that benches Mkhitaryan or drops him from the match day squad?
Same Mou that plays Lukaku almost every game even when he was serving us bullshit?
Abeg you can proceed with other excuses but this one won't fly, I'll be here to shoot it down whenever you try to launch it

PDPGuy:


This must be a big joke. If you can’t be in a title race despite spending £300 million, then you don’t deserve to coach one of the biggest teams in club football.

Not in today’s market where one player cost £150m. When last did Manchester United compete for the title?

dmcdad:

If your definition of playing sweet football is just tiki-taka style,then we no dey play well.
I can easily say that we've played more attractive games this season than the few games you guys they use to flog us now.

SIRcumalot:


Those two guys suppose be Micki and pogba.

Mkhitaryan is not exactly that dribbler, or may be he is still adjusting to the new challenge. Mkhitaryan and Mata should fight for one position.

We need a dribbler who can cut in behind the defence line or tear it apart like Salah. Salah is still not a world class player, so someone even better.

Pogba cannot burst with top speed. We need one. We can play three in the middle against big teams. Matic, Pogba and another top midfielder. Someone who can do week in week out what Sissoko did in Euro 2016 final.

The third position we can work on, is playing a good ball control striker like Martial in some matches. It is not every time Lukaku plays 90 minutes and just wait there for perfect cross. Manchester City, Tottenham do not play the big striker, but the ones who can involve in build up.

And that is all that matters

Pep the famous magic worker didn't work his magic on Navas, nasri or Iheanacho. Na only sterling name everybody dey call.

Like sterling Wey we watch for Liverpool wasn't already a very gifted footballer.

He chased duds like Sagna, Clichy, Zabaleta, Kolarov etc but Mourinho must perform magic with darmian and his ilk

All of you really need to chill on the pep the player miracle worker narrative.

See Coman post pep.

I haven't seen one person blame pep for Iheanacho, who was rated as one of the brightest young talents in the world before Pep came.

Playing good football ain't about playing the tiki-taka style.

You can play good football without playing that style. It's just a way of playing. One of many ways to play good footie.

Tottenham are playing some good football, but are they playing tiki-taka? Nope... Real Madrid plays good football too, but do they play tiki-taka? Definitely not. Present day Barça plays good football, as always and albeit not like in yesteryears, they still do now. But do they play tiki-taka presently? Far from it.

One thing that is common amongst teams who play good football, is attack. The way they play the ball around and how they attack with the ball. Of course defence is also part of the game, and is not being undermined here. But then, football (in its attacking sense) is a joy to watch. You remember the game against Man City vs Monaco last season at the Etihad? It was an absolute gem to watch and whether you were a supporter or hater of any of both teams, you'd appreciate the end-to-end football played on that night. How about the UCL game between Napoli and City? It was spectacular! Why? Because of the attacking intent of the game.

Now back to the nitty-gritty. I stated it some few posts ago that earlier in the season you guys played some good football and you scored lots of goals too. At a time, United and City had just 4 goals against, and City was just a goal or 2 ahead in terms of goals for. That was when you guys were actually playing football. But all of a sudden, Mourinho being Mourinho started approaching games with a negative mindset and attitude and then the amount of goals scored dropped, while also you guys started conceding more. Pep has always said the best form of defense is attack. And it's evident in the fact that they've scored the most and conceded the least.

If only Mourinho would be brave again and do things accordingly, I think it would really help to reshape things, else, I think the 2nd place would even be up for grabs by other teams. Anyway, let's just see how things unfold.

If pep can turn Delph and stones into good players, I see no reason why mourihno can't do the same with darmian and co, abi no be cleverly and co Ferguson take win league?
