It's just like that Martial's goal against Wolves, no way Rashford will score that, i'm 100% sure. Rashford's type of goals are the ones were he outruns the defenders and miraculously slots it in. That's his specialty, outpace defenders and miraculously score.

He needs very serious competition

Just look at Southampton ffs!

Something must give way lol. Even if na injury, e go happen

Leyqute:


You don't get what I'm saying but okay. Time will tell. Let's see how we'll set up against West Ham.

Sure.

I don’t care which line up or system he roll out against West Ham as long as we get full 3 pts, I will be happy.

Leyqute:


Martial Rashford can never score that kinda goal. Neveer ever ever. He's too dumb.

Fixed

nihilistjnr:


Well, in that case what happened when they met?

Rashford scored a penalty, Mbappe didnt get a penalty to shoot

so what is your point exactly

atimes you talk like your crazy or something .

chidexxy007:

West Ham will play a more open football.

how will the yoots contribute to the defence then ?

By standing in their respective positions like statues while the team is under attack

Eph has said it all, you can't ever pleased United Fans. The Reason is clear, we are used to winning Titles and dominating Games until SAF left.

However, we do forget that we've tried out LvG and Mou in the process of rebuilding to no avail. EPL Matches are becoming unpredictable. Teams are getting stronger Season by Season.

Who would have predicted a new Comer to beat the defending Champion?! Who could have predicted Chelsea to massacre Wolves at their Home?!

So far, we are well placed on the Table, thus what matter most is winning and keeping the Momentum.

I stand with Peeps backing 4 - 3 - 3 Formation chaired by Afrodoc2. I really believe it's better way to balance the Team style of play. Pogba, McSauce and Fred are needed in the Midfield, with Andreas and Matic on the Bench as Backups.

Though left to me - I would have suggested 3 - 5 - 2 Formation with the below Lineup;

________________ De Gea _______________

Tuanzebe______ Maguire _______ Lindelof

AWB __ Fred __ McTom __ Pogba __ Shaw

________ Greenwood ___ Martial _________

Subs: Romero, Rojo, Perreira, Gomez, James, Matic, Rashford.

The 3-5-2 formation looks good in theory but there are a couple of issues with it.

1) It is a difficult formation to master especially for those who never played it before or those whose intelligence is not top notch. Martin Skrtel recently left his club after a few weeks because of his inability to master their 3 man defence.

2) It depends on wing backs who are very creative going forward. Without attacking wing backs the system would be a dead end and we will struggle even more to score goals. Apart from old man Young i don't think we have the full backs to make it work IMO.

I believe Dalot would do well as a wing back on the right. As for the left, just Young. Maybe Rojo too.

Yeah Dalot is another probability. Definitely not Rojo.

So far, there's no competition. With the way things are, his problems will start when Martial returns because OGS might decide to field James, Martial and Greenwood, effectively sitting his overhyped self on the bench.
And if these three players click, i'm very sorry for Rashford, he'll be giving advice to the youngsters from the bench.

Leyqute:

You should edit

Chances like that is why OGS openly declared that Greenwood is the better finisher. As it stands now, James, Martial and 17yr old Greenwood are all better finishers than Rashford.
Instead of him to focus solely on his football, was following 27yr old Mr. Potential to do star boy. Bench go clear him eye soon.

Rashford lacks close control, finishing,I.Q, passing, hold up, heading he does have the two great talents of being young , and being fast.

I don't see OGS benching Rashford unless we have a player come in at 70 minutes and score goals regularly. Then OGS can reconsider. For now he believes Rashford can improve and will be patient with him

The moment Martial is back the project Rashford as a number nine will finally come to an end again. On the left we will then have Rashford and James to fight their place in our starting XI.

You are right Doc, but as a Dude already mentioned - Dalot will definitely do a good Job as a Wingback. Shaw?! Maybe, but it won't be bad to experiment Lingard again as a Wingback.... Lol!

Martial Injury is something I worry about. Immediately he is back from an injury, his performance drops

eph12:

All that believe is because he doesn't have any option, not that he's patient with him. Mans face clearly turned red when Rashford missed that second chance against Astana, he was so pissed.

The issue is for how long? The boy is a really confused player and i blame Lingard for this.
Initially, Rashford was all about learning from Ibrahimovic, but it's been nothing positive.

Being fast is effective against teams that push higher up the field, but not every team will do that, some just come to squeeze out a draw and are very happy about it.

tenmariner:

Well he is our best finisher in the team to me. So he better comes back in form and ready to bang in goals.

I was just checking up his goals record in PL compared to Firmino (both players arrrived at same time).
Firmino: 50 in 141
Martial: 36 in 116

Its worth adding Martial has played 3000 mins less.

He played himself into that corner where he doesn't have options

Where do you put the other things both players bring to the team?

He needs to improve many aspects of his game. But he is young and we can only hope he does. The talent is obvious.

Good formation on paper but in reality, we will be massacred from Shaw's wing.

As a normal full back, Shaw doesn't track back very fast, now you want to make him play wing back
