We should get Young... Sanchez and Herrera back since they're both in the Finals

It'll bring about development to the team

Ole was stupid to have sold them.... I still don't know why Greenwood replaced Sanchez

Has Greenwood ever been to the Finals??

The Coach needs to go

LOL. The kind shortsighted talk person dey read for here.

Aguero, Christiano Ronaldo, Messi and Aubameyang are not in the final but Maxim Choupo-Moting is in the final. He must be better than them and Barca should swap Messi for Sarabia who is also in the final.

What a higi haga.

handelex:
Bless up brother... some comments for here they weak me, how people fail to be rational I can't understand. Well, I already told them to get ready to sack Ole from this thread.

Nezzjnr:

We really don't know what we want

If Jones was in the psg team...Ole would have been lambasted for selling him to psg

Verrati has been struggling with injury over the last 2 weeks.
If he is fit before the final Herrera might return to the bench.

Oasis007:
It's not necessary we keep playing same Formation for all Matches. OGS should learn to tweak Formations, Tactics and be unpredictable to the opposing Managers.

I wished he benched Rashford in the Semi and up for 3 - 5 - 2 Formation instead of the default Formation.

If we eventually (God forbids) miss out on getting Sancho, I really hope OGS plays 3 - 5 - 2 Formation. We need to be doing the Damage with our Strikers from the Middle not from the Flanks. The below Lineup can get the Job done;

__________________ DDG _________________

____ AWB _______ Maquire _____ Tuanzebe

James _____ Pogba _____ Fred _____ Shaw

_______________ Fernandes ______________

________ Greenwood ____ Martial ________

However, if we get Sanchez for next Season, then 4 - 3 - 3 Formation should be the default Formation, not 4 - 2 - 3 - 1.

___________________ DDG _________________

AWB_____ Maguire ___ Tuanzebe____ Shaw

__________Fred _ Bruno _ Pogba___________

Greenwood _____ Martial ________ Sancho.

Note: i don't include Rashford, because he should be allowed to heal completely and get fitted again.

I was expecting this after that yesterday match

afrodoc2:
Since it is just about getting to the final even if it is as carry along i wonder how many of you will want Young and Sanchez back. At least they are also going to play a final.
It’s not only Lukaku and Herrera nah.

It makes no sense to imply that just because one team got to a final all its players are quality or better than players in other teams.

Messi, Ronaldo, Salah, Mane, KDB are not playing any major finals. Lukaku and Perisic are not better than them.

Expert17:


Limited Herrera wey good for stoping opposition play/attack, man - marking star players, playing through passes,big game player, .......

odizeey:

At least he is not useless. He could be called on to play a semi final. It was here some people said he's not even second choice

eph12:

You may be probably right about AWB. However Herrera, Lukaku and co will be playing European finals soon. They are also judged to be heavily limited. At the end of the day, an excellent coach, a balanced team with a mix of some world class players, we should be fine

odizeey:
shebi them talk say them dey bench Herrera, say him no dey see shirt.

odizeey:

No one is saying get them back. I'm only saying we always shine light on the weakness of our players while if used properly to their strength we will enjoy them.
Every player has a weakness and a strength.
Amazing that we were yabbing was one of the best, if not best, defender for Roma. They played him to his strength. I won't be surprised if Jones goes out and does well.

Hmmm i was probably Herrera’s harshest critic here and even i accepted that he could be a useful squad player but not a first team player.

He is not useless but his fans here overrated him saying he was better than Kante when Gueye at Everton and Ndidi at Leicester were better.

Leyqute:


Herrera will certainly return to the bench in the final.

handelex:
Nobody is saying Herrera is useless, I love the Player myself, but one can't deny the amount of bench he's chopped this season. Like Doc said, he's in the picture now cos of Verrati's injury, aside that he should do a job when called upon, PSG ain't paying him 300k every week to be useless.

Leyqute:


Herrera is still heavily limited. That he is in the UCL final means little because he hardly contributed to his team’s efforts to get there.

Yesterday, Marquinhos and Parades were the ones pulling the strings in midfield. Herrera? He was hiding behind opposition players.

Don’t be surprised if he was omitted from the final starting XI.

Lukaku I’d give more credit because he’s a goalscorer. However, his teamplay is not top notch. If United need a striker without much teamplay I’d go for him.

Unfortunately, United is a team that teams will sit back and defend against. If your teamplay isn’t top notch and your teammates aren’t KdB, Messi or Ozil, you will struggle.

The less said of Sanchez the better. That guy can not perform in a team with huge expectations.

And the Italian league is way easier than the premier league.

Leyqute:


Herrera never see shirt. Veratti is back. He will return to the bench in no time. Quality cannot be manufactured. You either got it or you don’t.

afrodoc2:




Serie A is slower and poorer quality. Even Sanchez is scoring more there.

Smalling is a decent defender but very poor on the ball and that becomes a problem in a fast paced league.

Also think of this. Good teams like PSG, Bayern can have loads of really good players with a few average players in the mix, BUT our team had loads of average players with a few good players in the mix.
THAT IS OUR PROBLEM.

Each of these players on his own might not be too bad but when you gather them together in one team the problems start to show.
For example, if you play James with Pogba and Bruno he might not perform that poorly compared to if you play him the next week with Pereira and Lingard.
