What happens if he surprises you by saying the current squad is ok and talented midfielders like Fernandes do not fit the bill? grin
are you advocating a sack on what hasn't happened?

na dis soyuncu wey maguire the bench last season na en de burst ma head.

why una de sideline johnny evans?

and according to some Leicester fans, Evans was their best CB last season.

Evans is good no doubt but Soyncu have been immense since he started playing.

What I replied was drop your combined 11.
If you don't like what I dropped, ur drop urs

I am not a GGMumu fan so there is no point in me dropping a combined eleven of a club I want to be relegated if possible grin

In ur XI, u put Maguire-Soyuncu as ur preferred CB pairing but Soyuncu plays LCB(same position Maguire plays at Manure) and Evans plays RCB(same position Lindelof plays)..

Now u know Maguire and Soyuncu play the same position, do u think a Centre back partnership of Maguire-Evans would do better than one of Maguire-Lindelof?

Yes or No?

Just hilarious how Man Utd will sign top performing players, make them useless a few months later, then fans start complaining that they are not good. Someone even said that Woodward is stingy, cheesy cheesy cheesy, when he was doling out 200m each to Mou and LVG to sign players, where were you jare?

The fact is this, current players can make top 4. To harness their potentials, we need a new manager. Let's adopt Real Madrid and Chelsea's style, it guarantees trophies. We will continue to sink with this approach of giving someone time and money to get it right. It's BS. This is not Fergie era!

Get another manager, give him less than 100m to add players to the current squad, let's see what he can do in 1/2 years, if there are no improvements, sack the fuvker and look for another coach.

I really still don't understand this "one team is better than the other" it really dosent make sense to me.

What if on paper everybody knows that a team A is better than team B but team B players are ready yo work and run for 90mins doing the simple effective things that can get a result while team A because they feel are better are playing big man football on the pitch.

If team B is getting results then they are better than team A. Abi no be so.

The table dosent lie ooo. At the end of the season positions will show how good you are. You can't play 38 games, end up in 10th position and be claiming that your squad was better than the team that was 9th or 5th.

Right now Leicester is better than Man u. Simple.
Position on the table tells you which team is doing well at a particular time and that's down to the quality of players, their form, work rate etc but most importantly, I'd like to attribute it to the coach, his team selection, set up, training routine to improve fitness, in-game management and tactical nous.

You can't possibly say that Sheffield United has better players than Spurs, United and Arsenal just because of their position on the table else you'll be laughed at every quarter. Look at Leicester City before Rodgers and now their fitness has improved, tactically they look better.

Look at Dortmund when Klopp was coach and now, look at Liverpool, don't you see obvious similarities? At Dortmund, you had Schmelzer and Piszchek at Pool you have Robertson and TAA and their pressing game is similar.

Are you saying that with Klopp or Pep as coach we will have players strolling on the field of play? I honestly doubt. Manchester City and Liverpool players work very hard game week after game week. Now take a look at our performance after going 2 goals down, we looked all of a sudden miles better than Sheffield until Ole decided to hand over the initiative to Sheffield United by his negative sub. Imagine if we started every game with the same intensity and purpose, we wouldn't be dropping points against Crystal Palace and the Sheffield United's of the world.

If Ole was coach of Leicester, will they be doing any better than Manchester United? I don't agree that position on the table depicts a better squad.

He's not disputing the fact that Man U is not a good club

All he's saying is currently, Leicester is better than Man U.
Currently, Sheffield is better than Spurs

The table is the only proof. It could change tomorrow

How many times have we made top four with this squad? And what proof do you have that Woodward dolled out 200m to Van gaal and Mourinho every transfer window? These two are seasoned managers that had won the league and champions league in their previous club/s, but they barely made top four here! Both managers are saying same thing "Woodward knows nothing about football!" Even Sir Alex gave him the hair dryer treatment during the Sheffield game! Woodward is ridiculously clueless about football in all it's entirety. Ole is a winner and has got it in him, all he need is a strong backup in the transfer windows and acquiring his first choice targets and in three years time, we will evaluate how far we have come in the EPL. Sacking Ole now is pure foolishness!

I agree coaching is a vital part of a teams performance but I want to ask you a simple question.

What happened to pochettino and spurs, what happened to Ranieri when he won the league with Leicester and the season he was sacked?

You make it sound like Sheffield performance against united was a fluke, those guys have been consistent and we always knew it wasn't going to be easy, especially when we know how uninspiring our team has been coupled with Ole being at the wheel.


Based on the bolded above vs what you bolded in my initial post.

I repeat, RIGHT NOW LEICESTER IS BETTER THAN MAN U. And at the end of the season if they are above us then they were better.

To come say on paper we had a better squad just wouldn't cut it for me.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 7:23am On Nov 26, 2019
Some how some how, if a player lands at United, he's deemed better than every other player.

If he cost more than another, he's automatically better than that other. We go dey alright las las

Oga, who said every transfer window? Van Gaal and Mou spent 290m and 360m respectively at Man Utd, and both bought close to 20 players combined. Most of the players have left, while some are still around. Please tell me how this whole sh1t is Woody's fault.

And who told you Fergie gave Woody the hair dryer treatment? No one knows what transpired between them. Meanwhile, same Fergie that resigned without a good succession plan, you want us to trust someone that imposed a clueless Moyes on the club? Abeg abeg, let us face our focus and leave baba to enjoy his retirement.

If you give OGS three years, with or without his transfer targets, we won't make top 7 in those 3 years.

Their midfield is better than ours by a long way. Pogba is the only one who gets near their midfield. Their attack is definitely better. Vardy is a seasoned goalscorer better than anything we have while Martial/Rashford/James is probably slightly better than Ayoze,/Maddison/DemaraiGray . Maybe we have a slight edge but Vardy tips it in their favour. Defense is again neck and neck as is keeper. There isn't a massive gap between DDG and Kasper. Its more telling that we would rather sign their players like, Chilwell,Ndidi,Teleimans,Madddison, Vardy. All go straight into our first 11.
I don't believe any of Martial or Rashford is better than Ayoze Perez until any of them scores a hat trick. Boy did it at Newcastle last season and has done it again at Leicester.

Woodward is the reason this club is not finished. He has done his part in revenue generation and fund provision. People forgot we bought Falcao Di Maria, Blind, Rojo in one window while we still had Rooney and Van Persie. Mata was also in the team then when he came in as Chelsea player of the year twice.

We bought Pogba, bought Lukaku.

Please watch the 1st and 2nd half again. In the first half, the forwards were left to do it all on their own. In the 2nd half, our fullbacks pushed higher up the pitch same as the two midfielders and our centre backs were stationed just around the midfield area making the field compact and helping us recover possession in more dangerous areas.
We had more bodies in attack thus it was more difficult for Sheffield to keep their shape. It's what was on display, go and watch the match again and don't just depend on flash score for who scored or who assisted to draw conclusions.
