Low Value Boy Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Looks like we're going to be getting Benrahama from Brentford in the next couple of days. Really hoping this happens, supposedly a 28 year old Josh King for £18m on mega wages is the back up option and I really don't fancy that. We actually have a great record of signing Championship players and them doing well in the Prem so hopefully this can be the same. Bowen and Benrahama on either wing with Antonio up top could be quite a dangerous front three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott. Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 He’s a good player but he’ll drive you mad with the amount of good chances he wastes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roux Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Its just kinda mad how Felipe Anderson gave up and couldn't be arsed to play anymore - he was on fire in that first season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He flattered to deceive for the most part, even during his first season. Was incredible in November/December but was average to poor before and after that purple patch.

He's fucking awful. Could have done with a year on loan to a Greek prison team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He genuinely does need a break from football. But he's also just not good enough for United or England. I can't believe he's your captain man. Someone on talksport actually hit the nail on the head. £80 million spent to replace Phil Jones with Phil Jones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone on talksport actually hit the nail on the head. £80 million spent to replace Phil Jones with Phil Jones. I do think he is playing really really badly at the minute, he isn't worth £80m but you have to account for the fact he's in awful form as well and most players will have a few rough patches performance wise throughout their career. Am I the only one who remembers Maguire having a bit of pace? he's never been rapid but I swear in the earlier days of his career he used to eat up the ground with his big strides once he got going. Since he's joined Man United it's like he's running on treacle. Poor bastard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roux Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 He's never really had much pace, his positioning has always been pretty good - but not close to someone like John Terry who didn't have much pace either. He's not has much of a pre-season, so i feel bad for him - he just needs to keep playing, everything can change with one game. I think it will take a few more games for United to pick up form - they don't look like a team at the moment. He's a good defender, just not good enough for United - certainly not good enough to be our first choice or our Captain. The recent games have really highlighted his lack of pace and extremely poor distribution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucko Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 If what's being reported is true regarding van Dijk having a ruptured ACL then that blows the title race wide open. I hope it's not, as wouldn't wish injury on any player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roux Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 Donny Van de Beek is something else, they've got to figure out how to play Bruno, Pobga and VDB together. He's got that De Bruyne style about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't be long before he's starting games - Ole might have to play a diamond system like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't comment on Telles yet (although his goals and assists stats in Portugal are very good for a full back) but I think you need a better right back offensively to play a narrow diamond. Fair play to Maguire - had a shit month or so but did well to put in a performance like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't be much different to what Bissaka is doing now in a 4-2-3-1 - he doesn't get much help from James/Greenwood. Either way the benefits outweigh the negatives in this system to accommodate the midfield 4 in that pic. The front 5 is very dynamic/interchangeable. Bissaka has so much time to develop. Someone like Luke Shaw doesn't- i thought he was awful yesterday, not because of the OG - he just doesn't know what to do with the ball in the final 3rd - so many good positions and he just hits and hopes - clueless.
