    also on the fellaini thing......

    This is simply not true. I don't want to keep the Fellaini thing going with you as it's been done to death but, even for you I'm surprised you would try and paint a narrative like that as to what you posted in the past.

    At least have the balls to stand by your words or admit you were wrong. Trying to rewrite your own history is cringe worthy.

    Anway I'll let you reply away and say no more as I'm sure this is irritating for a lot to read as it has been done to death and I don't want to clog up the thread with it.

    not trying to re-write any history.

    He was useless in his first season. became a laughing stock and was voted in the top 10 worst signings of the season.

    in actual fact, he has been crap for most of of his united career but obviously played well in some games. had a run under van gaal for 5-6 games where he was very good. Has done well now under Jose but is still liable to do really stupid things (penalty against everton, red card v city)

    only last season got booed by large sections of the old trafford crowd (which was bang out of order) and was recently voted in the top 10 worst man utd signings of the premier league era.

    but look, jose likes him, he is doing a good job when called upon so i will give him my full support like the rest of the players in a united shirt

    Going back to the topic of chants for Lukaku, saw someone on Redcafe say that the Falcao chant should be tweaked for him.

    I agree, loved that chant.

    That was sung at the first game of the season actually. It's very good.

    I'm not sure why it has disappeared and has been replaced by that ridiculous one.......that surely won't take off.

    Bangkok used to slate Depay for his ectravagent dress sense and driving of fancy cars so its ironic and hypocritocal him having a go at people over talking about pobgas hair cut.

    O couldn't give a fiddlers what they wear or do the their hair once they get the job done on the pitch.

    He defied club orders by driving a rolls royce worth quarter of a million to an u21 game, thats where the issue was with depay. I couldnt care what he wore as long as he was doing the business on the field but he wasnt and even his dress sense was causing issues with the national team.

    It's not rubbish deflection when it's exactly the post on here, in this thread that started this whole conversation.

    And of course when you score 2 goals away from home in a notoriously hard place to score goals then it's the defenders who made individual errors that cost us the win that should be taking the heat. Or maybe the striker who missed a sitter at 2-2.

    Pogba was very good against Stoke.

    Pass to Lukaku 1.18
    Pass to Valencia 1.45
    pass to Lukaku 1.55
    Scored the goal that deflected off Rashford so was given to him 2.50
    Excellent dribble around 2 in midfield and pass forward 3.20
    Excellent pass to Mkhi (I think who was just off) 3.35
    Great pass (can't tell to who) 6.57



    Watch the whole video. He made almost 70 passes in that game and there was only one bad one. I'd say about half of them were bringing the team forward. He held the ball up well too.

    He did play a little deeper than the first few games but that was because Stoke had 10 men behind the ball almost every time he got it and they are one of the most organised defenses in the league.


    So yeah he didn't single handedly win the game for us or dribble round 6 and score a worldie that some people seem to expect before they call it a good performance from him, but he was very very good against Stoke.

    Superb posts, shame all the good things Pogba did will be forgotten the moment we get bad results.

    Ah I don't think they will tbh. Maybe by a couple of fickle United fans or moron pundits / rival fans but anyone with half a brain knows how important a player he is for us.

    Everton will be a tough game for us, we have only won 5 of the last 10 against them and drawn 2 however they are on the back of a demoralizing display last night and poor league form.

    What odds I wonder on both Rooney and Fell to score against their former clubs?

  • Registered Users Posts: 7,521 ✭✭✭Giggsy11


    Schneiderlin
    Fellaini
    Rooney
    Lukaku
    Keane

    That's 5 players who played for both teams.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,507 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    This is going to a very anorak-ish post, but Sunday marks the tenth year in succession that United have played on All Ireland football final day. Always found it to be an odd coincidence.

    Record in that time-frame reads: 4W-1D-4L. Two massive highlights though includes Mickey Owen's last minute winner vs City in 2009, and Berba's hat-trick vs Liverpool a year later. Low points are undoubtedly the 4-1 loss to City in 2013 and last year's 3-1 loss to Watford.

    Not one to delve into superstition, but of the three All Ireland finals I have attended in the last ten years (and I have a decent chance of travelling up on Sunday), United won twice (2010,12) but lost to Leicester 5-3 in 2014. And the last two times Mayo have lost, United have too. And United lost in three of the four years Dublin won Sam.

    Still though, United to win 2-0, Lukaku and Mkhi with the goals.

    The Sun... the reports is that he uses a private trainer instead of a club trainer, which if true is ****in ridiculous, the club need to know exactly what he is doing..

    I have doubts about it though...

    Well he was zlatan trainer as far as I knew but yeh he was hired by the club.

    Maybe there is truth in the pogba thing maybe he was overdoing it I know the likes of depay used to always do gym work and all at home.

    There is nothing to write about with the club at the mo so they are like leeches with any little thing.

    Another is that Jose was furious with Herrera over him bringing a close friend who had ties to Celta to Carrington before the Europa Semi finals and their relationship has changed because of it
