chrisley024: James was the reason we scored 3 goals yesterday. He created the first and second then assisted the third. Pair him with an Harry Kane and he’ll do double digits in assists every season. Martial is supposed to be professional but he’s weak mentally. He’s got quality talent though- it’s just that whenever he decides to be off, he’s off. Rashford seems to be having a good form but he still sucks at playing with his teammates. In midfield we currently have no one. Fred seems to be stepping up because his form is improving but he’s still not first choice material. Perreira is turning out to be a waste of pipe. McTom has been our best midfielder so far cos he’s available and has churned out good performances. But a budding youngie shouldn’t be our best midfielder. Pogba has been injured since the start of the season. And that’s it. We’re very thin in midfield. We need a very mobile AM, a b2b CM as well as a good DM to complement Pogba and McTom. Matic, Pereira are not it. Fred might be a squad player and that’s it. We’ve lost our midfield since the season started and if you don’t have a good midfield you don’t have a good team. That’s why I said they are using this season to gamble. 3 Likes |

I really hate Maguire’s slow passing. It’s as if he wants the ball to take 5 minutes before it reaches its destination. Opponent go don gather mark person before the pass arrives. Rojo on the other hand hits it good. The pass go ginger you to gbe body. ![]() AWB is just doing fala-folo. Seems he doesn’t know what to do when in midfield or attAcking position. |

Leyqute: Williams has locked down that position already. It's shameful that the supposedly senior players have to rely on teenagers for a comeback. Jones and Periera are topics for another day... |

chrisley024:The point is; with Laporte out and Fernandinho/Otamendi in, City are weakened at the back. A much more conservative coach will think adding an extra body in defense (Stones-Otamendi-Fernandinho) will help tighten the otherwise weakened defense but no Pep, he is not afraid to trust Fernandinho and Stones to do the job against top teams talk less of when he is up against an opponent like Sheffield Utd. I remember that UCL final when he trusted Toure to play in CB against Manchester United. He believes more in enforcing his style of play which is what every top manager does... |

Leyqute:Thank you...It's what we have been saying but some folks think we shouldn't criticize them because they are not exactly involved in the goals we concede. Van Dijk shits on Maguire every day. I am struggling to see that ball playing skills I saw when he was at Hull City and Leicester, I don't know if it's the pressure that's getting to him. When you watch Liverpool, Van Dijk is sure to ping at least 2-3 accurate long balls to Mane and Salah almost every game, some of them resulting to goals or goal scoring chances but Maguire will hang on the ball like he knows what he is doing. You are also right on the speed of his passes, only Rojo drills those ground passes like you would've come to expect from seasoned professionals. |

I’m surprised leyqute is just noticing that Maguire is quite slow. It was the major fear me and afrodoc had when we were being linked with him. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Leyqute(m): 2:43pm On Nov 25, 2019 |
larride: No na. I’m talking about his passes. His passes can lull you to sleep in a clubhouse. I’ve noticed it for quite some time, just posted it today out of frustration. Remember those times we were playing Soton and Crystal Palace- when the play was slow and boring? Magguya Dey part of the cause. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 2:51pm On Nov 25, 2019 |
Leyqute: The problem is that Maguire for some reason keeps getting played at LCB when he is actually quite heavily dependent on his right foot. So all you need to do is press him from the right side and force him left, and then he still uses his right foot (instead of his left) to pass those slow poison passes. |

Leyqute: I don’t know whether the recruitment team didn’t do their job before we splash the cash. LCB that can’t pass out with his left leg will surely run into trouble. Even Jones with all his mumuness can pass out with his left leg. Are we going to go buy another LCB ni bayi? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Leyqute(m): 4:05pm On Nov 25, 2019 |
larride: He will learn on the job. We get plenty CBs- Bailly, Tuanzebe, Lindelof, Jones, Rojo and Slabhead. |

afrodoc2:I think he started straight on the left side to cover for Luke Shaw, and has continued there since then.. before he came, Victor Lindelof was the LCB and earned "Ice-Man" in the process after a shaky start. Maybe they both should be swapped, it just might bring out their respective best. 2 Likes |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Leyqute(m): 6:12pm On Nov 25, 2019 |
ChristineC: Seems it was strategic. AWB is solid defensively so he can help with RCB. The LB is kinda weak so Maguire was drafted to LCB to cover for the lapses on that wing. |

GloryIsaac:Woodward is the biggest problem at United, he hoardes funds like it's his father's money. Van gaal and Mourinho both complained about his ineptitude toward major targets in the transfer market. You know nothing about football players, yet you decided a major transfer target can't come to United because "he takes a lot of risks"!! Who does that?? This is why Pep can never come to United and why Pochettino will never succeed if he gets appointed per say. Until he changes this attitude and/or appoints a football director, Ole and we the fans are in a deep shit! |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by paafin(m): 7:27pm On Nov 25, 2019 |
patrickmuf:I guess he overrated the match fitness of his players then and their initial gra-gra. These boys can't sustain his style of play for a long period of time. How do you expect a lazy Martial to press upfront for 90 mins week in week out? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by patrickmuf(m): 7:55pm On Nov 25, 2019 |
paafin:Are Manchester City and Liverpool players superhumans? The laziness of our players tire me I swear...If we press to much, all of them will get injured. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by tenmariner: 8:22pm On Nov 25, 2019 |
Maguire is not a bad deal. Every player has one weakness or the other but the quality of the entire squad minimizes the rate at which your weakness will be noticed.. Nobody noticed how harry Maguire scores last min goals for Leicester but very difficult in united..the answer is simple, TEAM QUALITY!!! |
