Better chance donating him to science than getting a club to buy him.

We could try market him as a human jigsaw.

15 league appearances, 10 of those being from the bench. Not exactly parallel with Matip.

Just been watching Allan playing for Hertha Berlin in a rare start - very tidy. He played as the deepest midfielder but still managed to get the assist for the assist (so to speak) for the only goal. For the smallest/lightest player on the pitch he did well in a position that usually demands "presence". He had a cheeky punt from about the halfway line in the last few minutes when the Wolfsburg keeper came rushing out of his area but it drifted just wide.

Was it a better attempt than moreno

Yeah.

Taking it to an extreme...you could have someone come on for the last minute of every league game and you'd have someone with 38 appearances but only 38 minutes playing time. Which would you say is more important?

Osmosis Jones

Matip also only has one goal less than Sturridge in the league this season

Depends what they did in that 38 minutes playing time.
If one wants to take it to the extreme

More important than what btw, you haven't described the other scenario at all? I'm not clairvoyant, extremely smart, yeah, clairvoyant, NO

Bored yet ?

I meant is the appearances stat more important than the minutes stat.

I don't need to be clairvoyant to know that you already knew that.

Should have put a loan back clause into Victory Moses' loan contract.

Nothing annoys me more than how well Moses and Aspas have done this season.

**** Moses, never seen a more disinterested player play for us. Happy for aspas however, seemed to small for the league but tipping it up this season. What about peter gulacsi nailing down the number one shirt for the second placed team in the bundesliga though

Osmosis Jones

Remember when we nearly bought Eriksen, and Dele Alli, and Willian. Good times.

We missed out on Soldado so it all balances out really. He was some donkey of a player for Spurs.

and Depay...

I'd say they're a bit stronger mentally this season and will still give Chelsea a worry in the league.

He's had a torrid time there, tbh. 5 appearances in the league up to recently and was blamed for the losses in 2 or 3 of those games.

Moses is playing as a wingback. That is like us playing Firmino as a wingback and buying a Costa type to play striker. Would we do that though ?
We have a history of buying players and then playing them out of their position.

Markovic did great with goal to follow it up instead of running off celebrating thinking it crossed the line.

Alli was gerards fault apparently. They tried to entice him by arranging a meeting with gerard but he was a no show, went for a nap apparently. A pity as he is supposed to be a Liverpool fan and we had the upper hand in a chance of signing him but it did not happen

What caught my eye was that amazing sprint inside to meet the cross. Some speed on him.

Maybe I am getting old. This constant need to have petty digs at United, Everton or whoever has become in incredibly boring.

Is there anything factually inaccurate about Pogba now making more passes than Henderson in the league? Previous to this point, did Henderson have the most passes of any player in the league? Does that now mean that Pogba now has the highest number of passes in the league?

You're absolutely right.

You are getting old.

It's all factual. Sure it was posted on the official utd Twitter page.

Anyways it's only a bit of lighthearted Bantz.

I probably should've held onto it till tomorrow and posted in utd match thread.

Pogba's played four more games, for what it's worth. I'm not calculating minutes (who does that??!)

Anyway - what kind of an argument is being made by the total number of passes made? Its not Mastermind.

Not sure really, Maybe the club(Utd) want to justify paying so much for a player? Going by replies to the tweet, Henderson still has more assists.

Don't forget this was the official Manchester United twitter page that made the comparison.

Listening to the radio this morning it seems Barca want Eriksen so we are nailed on to lose Coutinho to them now.

Or is it a double bluff for them to finally sign Gareth Barry....

If I were Barca i'd go for Bernardo Silva tbh. Would suit them better imo, whoever is in charge of transfers there the last few years is doing so bad its like sabotage.

By this account, it is because Alli is selfish, has an ego & wouldn't sign as a result of not meeting his idol.

Do you really believe this?

I'm still pissed we didn't spend the 15m on Eriksen that time, especially when we were so heavily linked to him for years.

Seeing him play with Alli after us botching that deal as well just makes it all the worse.

We should all just support Spurs. Then they'll all play for us.
