Tottenham H. 1-0: Nani 132 / Evra 94 / Hargreaves 84

GE · 29th August 2007, 20:39

Agreed.

Evra has been brilliant.

lorcanjc · 29th August 2007, 20:39

Good work. Didn't expect to see Scholes in the top 2 to be honest

Agreed him and Hargreaves would have been my 1 and 2

Godfather · 29th August 2007, 20:43

The first 4 would be exactly my choice.

December_16 · 29th August 2007, 23:56

well deserved

Ruben · 30th August 2007, 00:01

Evra would be my choice as well.

But both Nani and Hargreaves should be ahead of Scholes. People are blinded by the fact that he is in fact the legendary Paul Scholes. I`m not saying he`s been poor, but Hargreaves and Nani have been better.

Giggs deserves what he got...nothing

Eto'odinho · 30th August 2007, 00:13

Evra deserves the title of the top dog for the month of August. There have been a couple of games this season in which he has been the only player who looks likely to get us a goal from his position at left back. Top player, he has been sound defensively and exciting going forward.

Scholes has only had one good game in my personal opinion, that was against Pompey. Hargreaves had his against Citeh, Nani has impressed in periods but hasn't really fully imposed himself on any one game.

Giggsy's form has worried me, I sincerely hope it is only down to him being played upfront BUT he hasn't sparkled, hopefully that will be put to bed this Saturday.

lem8sh · 30th August 2007, 00:15

Being played up front doesn't stop you from controlling the ball and not giving the ball away at every opportunity though,his forms a massive worry

Johnno · 30th August 2007, 01:51

Who was Heinze again?

REd FUn DevIl · 30th August 2007, 03:17

In just 2 matches the best player, imagine if he would have started the season

OK enough. · 30th August 2007, 03:32

Well deserved!

botond · 30th August 2007, 06:18

well done , and well deserved by Evra,lets hope next month it will be a striker

gaffs · 30th August 2007, 09:19

Evra has done well in Aug.

I also think Nani has settled really well.

Nah, that's a bit harsh aint it?
I agree with you that he is not on top form, but he surely doesnt give the ball away at every opportunity, and i actually do think, that it is mainly because he is played out of position and because he has to play upfront alongside with the new boy, Tevez.

It's surely not easy for him, considering that he has always played as a winger.

All United fans on this forum may vote for three (and only three) United players after each match on the MoM thread. All first places win the player 3 points, with 2 and 1 for the other places. Most points wins Man of the Match.

For the month, each Man of the Match gets 3 points - then 2 and 1 again. That's how that the Player of the Month is decided.

The other tally is the number of votes cast for the entire month. There is another one at the end of season as well.

Brown has done well, but he loses out as he is not a flashy player nor a particular fans' favourite.

Are you fecking kidding?

The order above is spot on.

Not Wes' fault, to be fair, he has been playing out of position. And it shows.

He mainly loses out because he is not a full-back.

kietotheworld · 30th August 2007, 13:28

He mainly loses out because he's not very good at football.

Nonsense. He's a top-class centre-half and would walk into the starting line-up of almost every other team in the league. And it's only thanks to his superb defending that we ended up picking up all 3 points at the weekend.

What he is not, however, is a top-class full-back.

I've got to disagree.
To my eyes Brown has nearly the best attitude of all players from ManU.
For him it's not a problem not to be started regularily in the first XI, but he fights for his place. Of course he isn't the best crosser or technically-gifted player but he is a great fighter and tackler.

botond · 30th August 2007, 14:21

Does he yell on the pitch, or talk to the teammates or cursing at the ref, i cant remember seeing him do something like that ....dont get me wrong all i want to say that hes personality is the opposite of rio, im i wrong?

yeah, brown just clatters the likes of Robben into the advertising boards, gets up and gets back into position ready to do it again. Ferdinands got a big mough and no Bollocks.

I'm guessing you're not a fan of Brown, then?

ecantona7 · 30th August 2007, 15:31

IMO, evra has to be player of the month with hargreaves second and nani third.
