The Manchester United Thread

In the last few games he's played there has either been balls put in the box that he could get on the end of if he actually ran and tried, or he gets tackled then stands there moaning waving his arms while the ball is being passed around him 2 yards away. Ive not seen him once lose the ball then run his head off to try and get it back. Just stands there crying waving his arms. And its always a bad sign when a player comes out wearing gloves. Shouldnt be cold if your moving your ****. Cavani ran and closed down more in the few minutes he was on today than Martial has in his last 3 games.

Well I want from him to run like Gattuso, poach like RvN and passes like Zidane, but that's not what Martial is and probably will never be. He's a creative player who's best when he has someone to combine with. We saw it last season and while he has issues in his game, I still think general lack of creativity in team is hindering him.

The bolded part is simply a not true and something that caveman Roy Keane would say.

I'm sure Cavani will get his chance and same fans that were calling for Martial head will call for Cavani's as well after.

Rashford got to the end of several chances today in the CF position. I'd expect Martial to be in that position but he's not a committed runner.

Thats one of the issues with Martial, he is not a poacher. His positioning inside the box is not the best. Give him a chance and he'll score, but like you said, he's not a willing runner.
 
Garner getting more rave reviews this weekend. Going to come back and be a very good player for us possibly replacing Matic. Got an assist also.

Makes no difference.
We will still be way off the standard of the top clubs.

Manchester United is a f.ucking fashion brand. Selling trinkets and advertising space.

Leave the football to the football clubs.

Not bad for a side only formed 3 seasons ago, but Casey Stone is only interested in being top in May which is as it should be.

Yep. Gotta love that mentality and belief she has. And her players totally but into it and would run through fires for her.

Huh? Having a top youth prospect come back after a good loan spell away to potentially fill a role we desperately need. Bit weird to complain about that tbh.

I understand the other stuff but that’s just odd. Nothing better than having another good/top player coming through. Better than spunking it on someone that can’t be arsed or only cares for money.
 
I started supporting Manchester United in 1977.
So cop on to yourself. Trying to talk down to a stranger on the internet is so passé.

Clearly a glory hunter fan who doesn't have a scooby. United have had a home grown player in the first team squad for more years than you have probably lived. The club has been built on the youth that have come through the youth teams over the years, without the success of the likes of the Busby Babes and the 1990's homegrown players the so called 'fashion brand' you speak of would not exist. They don't always rely on big names to win things unlike some teams cough, cough Chelsea, and City.

Who mentioned big names?
I said it wouldn't make a difference who comes through/or back (or as I've said before) who we sign .
The club is rotten from board level (my point).

Read the words... Then reply.

I'll use crayon drawings and more detailed explanations for you next time ;)

Why type a relaxed and simple reply on a football game forum, when you can spew out a long winded, cliché filled copy paste post from Neville's greatest hits.
 
Fm21 looks very good so far. Actually added some good features without the over clutter. Utds talent is great so can do another busby babes save ?
 
Oh, yeah. United actually have a pretty good team. ****, Phil Jones can easily be an excellent defender (despite starting off injured). Kinda think we have been rated a tad high on the beta. Let's see.

Wasn't this the guy who was supposed to join us? Stevanovich?
 
Although, on the beta, have to say, they got Maguire pretty spot on - unusable on a high line. If a player gets the ball near him, pretty much guaranteed they are running past him successfully. Gah.

Think most big clubs have bit overpowered players. Most have been for United, might be bias as I play FM mostly in England and PL
