Should be sold. He's completely shot.
Then Mick Hucknall is the answer to all our problems.he loves the club and that's the most important for central midfielder.
That's harsh. He was absolutely phenomenal from 2008 to 2010. Very underrated player back then.Barely made the grade before his illness. Probably not good enough now to get in a PL midfield anywhere.
No. He was excellent prior to his illness.Barely made the grade before his illness. Probably not good enough now to get in a PL midfield anywhere.
It's not harsh to criticise him - there's no room for sentiment in football.Feel a bit harsh slagging him off after what he's been through, and the fight he put in to return, but you can see that it has just taken it out of him. He is a yard slower, at least. He operates in slow motion, thinking he's got way more time than he actually has, and he ends up losing the ball stupidly, or make a forced hash of a pass. You can't control the midfield if your midfielder can't control the ball. We made Larsson and Cattermole look like Xavi and Iniesta. They strolled through.

Sorry but no. I've said it elsewhere here he was a journey man at best. He's now done and wouldn't get into any other PL side that's going anywhereNo. He was excellent prior to his illness.
You're lost in the woods there, mate. Fletcher was a sure starter in one of the best squads we've ever had.Sorry but no. I've said it elsewhere here he was a journey man at best. He's now done and wouldn't get into any other PL side that's going anywhere
you ve"said it elsewhere"......so what?Sorry but no. I've said it elsewhere here he was a journey man at best. He's now done and wouldn't get into any other PL side that's going anywhere
Strongly disagree. He was a colossal figure in our midfield 2008-2011. Huge engine, got stuck in, pressed and harried the ball, won it back and kept it moving. Chipped in with a few goals as well, a few of them were screamers n'all. The guts and engine Fletcher had in his prime is what we need right now. Teams are strolling through our midfield, swatting away any kind of physical presence we have to offer. Fletcher just doesn't have that in him anymore, which is saddening.Sorry but no.

Are you serious? No, for United ability at he highest level is important.he loves the club and that's the most important for central midfielder.
Awful post. Just truly awful. Fletcher does indeed look past it now but to say he had little ability before he was ill is laughably ignorant. Nuisance value was all he had. Jesus wept. There's so much wrong with this post I just don't know where to begin.As some of us have been saying during illness, he had little ability before he was ill, but had nuisance value because of his work rate.
Now, he has no work rate, still has no ability and is a liability out there.
"He will be back to his best after a proper pre season!"
feck off.
Either you never watched him or you're just clueless.Barely made the grade before his illness. Probably not good enough now to get in a PL midfield anywhere.
Forum rules dictate that one must attack the post, not the poster. So with that in mind, let me just say that your post is a cnut.Just terminate his contract, no one is buying him after that performance.

Saying his main strength was his work rate is a long way removed from saying he had little ability. Which is what you said. And which remains bollocks. Fletcher at his best was one of our most important players. His use of the ball, work rate, short and mid range passing, and goal scoring were all vital to our team. Memories are so short on here.Harsh it may be, but its true.
He was the legs of an otherwise immobile midfield, and complimented it well.
What he wasn't, no matter how hard you want to believe it, was a particularly brilliant player in his own right.
