LvG didn't like most of those players using their own imagination on the pitch. Most of the players binned were flair players.

It's either the player doesn't fit a manager's plan or he's simply not good enough.
Lukaku outscored all our forwards here but he's gone. Doesn't mean his career is dead.
Martial would have been sold if Woodward obliged Mourinho.

Lots of top players became a joke after moving to United. Lukaku was a laughing stock before his departure. Pogba is not playing at the same level he was before he moved to United. Deepay was the next best thing when we bought him but he also became a laughing stock before his departure. Di Maria, Falcao, Schneiderlin, Bastian, Mata became shadows of their former selves after moving to Man Utd. So many other players. I feel Bernardo Silva would be seen as average if he had made a move to Man Utd. A lot has gone wrong with Utd after the departure of SAF.

how many players were bought by Pep in Man City? how many are still there?
if you take the ratio since SAF left and since Pep came to City with players he has released, you'd see there's no difference.
Anderson was the next best thing, how did that work under SAF? Veron was the very best thing, how did it work out? what of Jones?

di Maria topped our assist charts, he wanted out doesn't equate he flopped. we don't really know what happened there.
what happened to Falcao in Chelsea the very next year?
how is Mata not a success in Man Utd?
is Herrera a flop too?
how can Lukaku be a laughing stock when he outscored all our forwards?
how is Pogba not on the same level when he better his stats from his best Juventus year last season? do you know he was the only player outside Man City and Liverpool to get into the team of the season?

why was Zlatan not a flop? why is Lindelof still here? is Valencia a flop also because he's no longer with us?
what is even your definition of FLOP?

Hiw is he the best we have got when there is no difference wether he plays or not?

As it is now, McTominay and Fred are ahead of him on current form. McTominay has been ahead of eveyone since last season.

What is the ranking of Pogba in world midfielders?

I understand you have an issue with Pogba but that shouldn't stop you from seeing his quality and what he brings to the table.

Pogba had the highest number of assists at United last season. Not McTom. He might be an asshhole and may not want to play for United but he's the most quality midfielder at Man United at the moment. There aren't many midfielders as creative as he is in the world.

How can you compare a DM to a CM in terms of Assists? McTominay mostly played to shield the defence.

Pogba ia creative? He slows down our play.

Nawa o. Where did I mention flop? Did all these guys meet or exceed expectations. I feel like I'll be repeating my previous statements by replying you.

I'm talking of how Lukaku became a laughing stock in his final year at United, you're talking about how he outscored our other forwards. Have you really forgotten how Lukaku was before he left United? How is Mata a success? You even talked about Di Maria topping our assist charts.

I'm not even ready to argue tonight.

Pogba and McTom played in the same position-CM. Matic was the DM.

Pogba is our most creative midfielder. He’s the best passer of the ball and he has a wider vision than almost everybody if not everybody.

Unlocking parkthebus teams will be easier with Pogba on the pitch. I’ll admit he isn’t as fast as Radhford and co but he counters fantastically too.

Don’t know what issue you have with him BTW.

Your post did insinuate that those players were flops. If someone became a joke after moving to a new club, it implies that he flopped.

Plus I don’t think ChristineC is “arguing”- like most peeps do here (to “win”). I think it’s more of a discussion.

Lukaku, last season, scored the most goals in the striking department. Without him we wouldn’t have beaten PSG.

Doesn’t mean he didn’t drop some poopers.

McTominay didnt have many games last season. But he was mostly used as DM from what I can see.

This season, he has been our best and most consistent player. We cannot give credit to Pogba who has not been involved and doesnt make any difference when he plays

Haha okay. Some did flop though but I'm not insinuating they all did. My bad @ ChristenC. What I'm saying is most of them didn't really meet expectations. All these things will reduce if there's a good system and team set up in place.

Even me sef have been saying in my mind for months or years that we ruin players. I dare not say it out as a United fan.

I also felt some players will begin to fear joining us. Now we can see it is happening.

Most Players we have bought in the said period did not work out. Nobody should paint anything. Same Lukaku that most here were and still lambasting is now not a flop.
Flop too plenty.

Yup. And we should stop bringing in players that won’t fit into our way of playing. Fellaini was a sore thumb that stuck out but he made the most of his time here.
