Manchester United Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours Thread 2016 - Mod Warning Post #6863

Adamocovic

Not a great first half, and lucky to be ahead.

Great goal by Jesse though.

Agree with Fellaini playing very well, but don't quite understand all the criticisms of Rooneys performance again, he has made one or two mistakes but also has the assist from his tackle and pass to Jesse which sucked Andy King out of position to open some space, and has some glimpses of good movement and passes. Fellaini and Lingard have been the two best players so far in my eyes.

Carrick, Zlatan and Martial haven't been too great at all but it's only 45 minutes, hopefully second half is better.

Bailly, Lingard and Fellaini had a great first half

Bailly will be a good communicator one he gets to grip with English. He is always pointing to where the play should go or where he wants the players

Could be another factor as to why Valencia is preferred right back, He can speak Spanish to help Bailly out at times.

Your post the other day and Mars Bars having nothing in common and you do her a disservice trying to drag her in to your slap on the hand the other day.

The one big error Bailly made was diving in that time against Vardy. Apart from that he's looked quite assured and seems to have a bit of everything about his game. Early days of course.

Loved Ibras aerial challenge where he cleared everybody out of it.

Simon Stone from BBC reporting 105m euro too, £89m so a World record

Now onto United closing out this match, I am recovering after the hurling.

DrPhilG

Is that including the agent fee or not though?

I thought I saw €100m plus €25m for the agent.

That's actually a great point tbh - I can see the merit in that for the first while.

Passing to Rooney is like kicking a ball at a wall.

Well done, Fellaini...

Fellaini looks great imo, basically a showcase of what Pro F was stating during the week.

There ya go

Carrick and fellaini are so poor

There goes Fellainis place ��

Adamocovic

Marouane

And he was having a good game. Carrick didn't cover himself in glory either.

Poor mistake by Fellaini alright but that's what it was, a mistake. Doesn't in any way negate the point that he had played very well up to that.

Lazy to jump on it.

Rayne Wooney

I don't think I'm even exaggerating when I say everything seems to break down at Rooney's feet

The interception before the pass was well-read too.

How Soon Is Now

Rooney and Fellaini are squad players they shouldn't be starting far as I'm concerned much better players on the bench.

While I agree about Rooney the midfield options consist of players that look better on paper but have been hugely underwhelming.

Fellaini has been the better of the two CM on the pitch today also.



Bollix Lingard injured.

Start playing Morgan more for starters. Herrara and then have Pogba to come as well.

Just thank your lucky stars it wasn't Rooney who made the mistake!

The man gets jumped on for everything, if he had of made the mistake which cost a goal you can bet we'd have some amount of new pages with fresh complaints about him :pac::pac:

Morgan. Meh. Has done nothing in a Utd shirt to convince me he's worth a start.
Herrera has flattered to deceive. Has the talent but think he can only play in a minded three as the most attacking player.

Still don't think our midfield is sorted despite the signing of Pogba.

Tony V has been awful
He just can't run a player anymore
I honestly don't understand what he's doing on the pitch

Haven't seen enough of him in the team to judge him. He didn't get much of a chance last season considering what went on.

Rojo vs Mahrez for the last 20 minutes.

Oh no.

If he ends up scoring the winner today we'd still have as many fresh complaints about him.

Zlatan has been just as bad as rooney

Rayne Wooney

Wouldn't surprise me if we have trouble jelling for another month at least

Still very very slow on the offensive, no cohesion. Poor passing, poor touches, little movement, the philosophy hangover.

Can see what Mourinho meant be saying it would have been easier for him to get 20 fresh players than have to reteach the squad subjected to Van Gaal and Moyes.

Adamocovic

Did Herrera really go to help Bailly with putting back on his boot :pac:

Everyone knows how to mark him stand off him step closer to the line offer him space inside so he has to use his left foot to cross watch him tuen back

Valencia very well there and great to see Ibra scoring. Good to see him knocking that one in after the miss he had a few moments ago, didn't let it get to him. Now would love us to catch Leicester on the counter.
