The defence of Valencia, Smalling, Jones, Young conceded only 28 goals in a full season.

The next season they are all old men and over hyped English defenders. ok na

What I've observed about Ole's midfield is that Ole likes using 3 players with different roles in the midfield.

The first player is the DM. He stays close to the defence and helps to shield any attacks. He also controls the speed of the game by passing either slow or fast and must not lose the ball under any circumstance.

The second player is the CM. He is typically a ball winner that wins the ball back when we lose it and keeps the game flowing.

The third player is the AM. He is the one that should be on the ball when we're running a counter since he can pick the best option at the moment. He also links the midfield and attack.

Last season our structure was like this:

DM: Matic
CM: Herrera
AM: Pogba

This season it's:

DM: ?
CM: Pogba
CM: McT
AM: Lingard or Pereira

The problem is, the only decent AMs we have are Mata, Pogba and Gomes. Ole can't use Mata often cos he's old and slow and he probably feels Gomes is too young and small (which I think is untrue anyway as Gomes is 18, stronger and faster than Mata)

Without the AM and DM functioning properly, we are useless. Pogba playing deeper will only help us in the negative because he loses the ball far too often.

Oga Calm down.

As at when we got LVG, LVG was better and had better CV than Klopp. Klopp was still an up coming manager with Dortmund, so it's normal for them not to take a gamble on him. No one knew he was going to turn out good. we actually went for a more established and coach with more acheivement in LVG, but things didn't work out.
The only regret I'm having is us not going for Pep when he was available. infact pep himself wanted Man utd but , Ed was an idiot then.

Baba you say Klopp na upcoming manager with 2 Consecutive Bundesliga titles and a CL final?

Not totally true.

Mou was criticized for his style of play majorly. Even when we were winning Lana and adisa were constantly criticizing him and don’t believe he’s the kind of manager we need.

Now the players he signed:

Zlatan - scored 27 goals in all competition and help us win the Europa, Carling and Community shield.

Bailly - Was immense in his first season before injury started.

Lindelof - Be the judge yourself.

Pogba - Our most creative player. Blows on n off.

Lukaku - Lukaku scored 27 goals in his first season, being our highest goal scorer for that season. We finished 2nd that season. Scored 15 goals last season, still our highest goal scorer.

Matic - Immense the season we bought him, last season he became a liability due to loss of pace.

Fred - Dont know where to place this one, I still believe he will come good.

Dalot - Same as Fred.

Sanchez - FLOP
Which of these players can we count on now? Which of them could we count on while he was here before he was sacked?

It was said that he was requesting for new players when the ones he brought in has done nothing really worthy of note. Ibra lost a lot of chances that season, we ended up 6th in the league. Matic has never been a player you can count on through out a season. He was never for us. Pogba has always frustrated every united fan. Dalot we don't know his position. If you think Lukaku was a success good for you.

Bailly - Suspect, Otu

Ibrahimovic - Did well, even though he didn't convert lot of chances, other players stepping up would have made it less noticeable.

Mkhi - Flop from BurnThisLeagueDown

Pogba - Inconsistent, Not the player you'll love to lead your team.

Lindelof - Improved, but still weak on aerial fuels.

Lukaku - Gone

Matic - Old, couldn't "Unlock" Pogba.

Sanchez - Bloody Scam. Came for the money only, Mou purchased him just to stop Pep' s squad from getting stronger, nothing else.

Dalot - Bright future

Fred - ?, couldn't "Unlock" Pogba too. Funny how he actually chose United over City, imagine Pep laughing right now.

Lee Grant - Backup

About 5 - 6 high-profile names in this list, all suited to Mou' s style of play, didn't work out.


Wan-Bissaka - Superb so far
Maguire - Superb so far, I actually thought he was overhyped by the English media, but the difference in defense is too clear to deny his quality.
James - Superb so far, still needs to improve sha but 3 goals in 3 games is something for a player signed for £16m.

Hope the club brings in more ballers like this three, and how Shaw suddenly became the weakest link in the defense is worrisome.
As at the beginning of last season we were frustrated with almost all his signings. Some even supported the board not releasing fund for the new players he was requesting for

Ibra lost a lot of chances and we finished 6th because Mou priorities the Europa league over fighting for top 4. That season we won the Europa league and Carling cup. Even Miki play better for us in the Europa league.

The season we signed Matic and Lukaku we finished 2nd on the table with a goal difference of +41 with Lukaku being the club highest goal scorer. Last season was a bad season generally and yet Lukaku was still the club highest goal scorer. Maybe you need some perspective on how you rate flop or success.

The season we finished 2nd was a one off. It was obvious that we only got there because other top teams were flopping all over the place. Immediately they sat up we were back to where to 6th which was where we finished the previous season.

The Europa we won was only prioritized when he realized that he couldn't do anything in the league. It wasn't like in the beginning he made the decision to throw away the league and go after Europa league. Did he?

Lukaku played as the striker for most of last season especially when Mourinho was here. Rashford played from the wings. Still everyone took turns to troll Lukaku for his weight, first touch, misses, poor control, etc. And this same Lukaku was a success because he scored 15 goals playing as the main striker? Should Lindelof had scored more than him?

Lukaku started just 12 games in the league last season while Rashford started 20.

You can go figure who was the main striker.

Ole signings has been superb and yet we are struggling to keep clean sheet. undecided

Mourinho finished second with 81 points +40 goal using the below players as most used 11

DeGea
Valencia
Smalling
Jones
Young
Pogba
Matic
Mata
Lingard
Rashford
Lukaku

They said the players are dead and the coach is finished. ok na

Don't mind them o. Buy buy buy everytime. Offload, like say Naso e easy.

Same players finished with 81 points two seasons ago, Ole used same players to win consecutive games, but today they are shyte.

Fact is, we need a new manager, one that can get the best out of the players we have. Of course, he is allowed to sign a couple of players. But, trust me, this team can make top 4 easily.

Lindelof did the same nonsense sokratis did today..The goal ayew scored and the southampton goal too, two goals that cost us both matches and 4 points.

As a CB, if you are advancing very close to the midfield to head a ball, make sure, i mean always make sure you win the aerial duel else that’s a mess or better still elbow the player to complete your stupidity..

odizeey:

But it wasn't complete overhaul for them. They try to bring in a few players every transfer window.

We should stop screaming 'complete overhaul'. It doesn't make sense because it will take sometime for them to gel, and as soon as you start seeing some progress, the best of them will try to leave. And business-wise, you will spend close to 500m to overhaul. You think money grows on trees?

The board and Woodward have been doing their best, we have bought players that managers have asked for. When the ask becomes unreasonable, what do you want them to do?

We just need to to check the style of any manager we wanna go for, ensure it's someone that will gradually work towards winning trophies, play good football, and bring out the quality in the players.

Let's be realistic, people.
