How do you think United get back on tracks ?

Ten Hag bought like 5 or 6 players he had at Ajax. How can any manager build on flawed foundations like that.

Do Ineos do like 08 Madrid with all its dutch players and sell them all to start a new era ?

Before they get rid of the Dutchies before they try a revolt. Yanited need a structure and method on how they are going to play until the end of the season. Going to a back 3 isn't the worst thing in the world for them as they do have an over abundance of CB's even if flawed in various ways. Injuries inexperienced not good enough been there too long etc...

Apart from Eriksen and his pacemaker and Bruno (looks shot and played the most games than anyone else over the last 5 years or so) they have no creativity. Do you really trust Rashford and Bruno as the double 10's behind the striker ? Garnacho as a the hybrid WB/W on the left?

Yanited need to move on Maguires Evans Lindelof Shaw Eriksen Casemiro Antony's for starters. And I would include Bruno and Rashford as well but now Portuguese coaches is coming Bruno not leaving. And Rashford will probably go on a run looking like the 2nd coming and people will get giddy and say he's back and save himself.

Breh when I say standout, I mean balling outta control and peaking really high. Like Cannavaro won it 06 for the WC but did he outshine Zidane, no. Yamal peaked higher than Rodri at the Euros and you could argue Olmo and fabian ruiz where just as good as Rodri was.

These award things aren't serious. Stop trying to make them make sense. All these awards are only good for one thing. Players hitting incentives and points in their contracts. No Martial.

When people start talking about players making All Star and All NBA NFL etc as to the reason why player A is better than Player B it is complete and utter nonsense. As we know nearly all awards across all forms of Entertainment and Sports industry there is bias opinion or some sort of agenda behind it to make xyz win. But all in all they are generally popularity contests for the big names.

2 players in on loan in winter. 1 fast defender. 1 creative MF or at least someone who is mobile, secure with the ball and can progress play upfield.

rabiot would have made sense.

:dead: who scoring the goals.

That team is bordering on terrorism.
I know he mentioned the system will do it's thing. Also that rectangle of Amad, Zirkzee, Case and Ugarte will do it's thing because they are technically good minus Ugarte.. I dunno, that's what he said. :russ:

Probably don't help that the alternative is Hojlund (Who he doesn't rate) or Rashford who's worse games are when he's the striker.

Amorim got his work cut out for him.

Rodri winning before Makele or kante just doesn’t sit right with me.
Busquets, Casemiro, Pirlo were also worthy. It is what it is, Rodri was at the right place right time. No striker with proper trophies. No winger that dominates statistics so you can pick something different.

Also Rodri is coming of a treble season and then a league+Euro win. Some journo probably thought he deserved it like Modric did :manny:


I'm just waiting for the fukkery of the vote breakdowns. Some are already leaking and there are some Rodrygo and Kroos 1st places :lolbron:

In an ideal world if Hojlund Zirkzee could be better defensively. You'll play them together as in theory it should work because of their profiles one wants to drop deep the other runs in behind.

But it's a shytshow. Idk maybe a 3142/31411 would be better suited than 343/3421.

So midfield 3 of Casemiro as the screen then Ugarte LCM to be the legs/cover for Martinez at LCB and the LWB which would also allow you to play Garnacho there. Bruno/Mainoo at RCM. Then Dalot and Mazraoui RWB and then Garnacho as the LWB but more as a winger. I cannot remember how Sporting defends if its a back 5 or 4 have warched them in while. And then the forwards Zirkzee and Hojlund or Rashford. You don't want a front 2 of Bruno and Zirkzee too slow. If you play Bruno further forward you get Mainoo into the team.

Then it leaves Amad out and he deserves opportunities. Only place I can think of using him is as a SS.

But as the squad is right now and how Amorim sets up. Its going to be Bruno and Rashford as the 2 #10's. I guess that does a fair enough job till the end of the season and sneak in a European place. Or have growing pains in the league and go all-in for the Europa.

And if you're going to use Antony then it has to be as a #10/RAM. Just isnt good enough to play as a wideman in the Prem. If he didn't phuck around on the ball so much he could a do Dwight McNeil make the yard of space and whip the cross in from the left as he does have decent delivery. Even Dyché realises with Dwight McNeill due to his lack of pace is better playing more centrally.
