If this guy still isn't up to speed, this is a disgrace. The season is 4 games in and he wasn't pulling up any trees last season, in fact he was basically deemed unselectable for months on end.
He's not been bad for us at all. He's lost the ball a couple of times deep in midfield (which Pogba does 5 times a game) and it's been blown miles out of proportion.People who think that he is shit need to re-watch that match against Barcelona at Old Trafford last year. We weren't great as a team but he was good imo at spraying the ball around accurately with purpose and good energy to win the ball back. He did the same against PSG at Parc des Princes with very poor teammates around him. We don't have a player like him in that pitiful midfield.
I mean did he have a real run of games since joining? Give him time.
There’s no basis for that. He is coming on the back of a really poor season and if he’s not doing it in the training, he shouldn’t be in the match day squad.He should be starting. It’s annoying Ole gives him 0 chances.
Think it’s pretty clear he’s in the doghouse.He should be starting. It’s annoying Ole gives him 0 chances.
That's cool of Fred...but they don't even play the same position. Having a week long wedding impact you about 4 to 5 weeks afterwards is kind of on the player. Fred is currently fourth choice maybe even fifth choice center midfield player with Garner - Pogba, McTominay, Matic, Fred/Garner.Manchester United midfielder Fred has appeared to take a little dig at manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s decision to continually pick Jesse Lingard ahead of him.

Yeah, screw him liking a post on his Twitter feed.Fred should focus on making the matchday squad first.
I dont think Ole is interested in the type of player that schedules weddings during preseason. Cant say I blame him eitherOne of the weirdest stories of the season, nobody is picking it up. How is he not even making the bench? The pre-season thing is a lie, because Willian had even less pre-season and came from injury and already played almost 80 minutes already.
So Woodward was right not to give him more money to blow?My god, what a bust. Jose's last few transfer windows were absolute disasters: Lukaku, Matic were pretty bad transfers given that spend over 100 million on the pair, while the jury is still out on Lindelof. Sanchez and Fred have been unequivocal flops; Dalot is still up in the air (but it's not like he was cheap.) I know this post isn't breaking any new ground, but it's pretty exasperating.
Perhaps, but then why did he extend his contract?So Woodward was right not to give him more money to blow?
Fred is actually a very good player though and if given a chance will prove his worth. I agree on the rest of the signings you mentioned, including Lindelof, they were/are not good enough.My god, what a bust.

Is he? Because he’s never shown anything at Utd to suggest he’s anything like a £52m footballer?Fred is actually a very good player though and if given a chance will prove his worth. I agree on the rest of the signings you mentioned, including Lindelof, they were/are not good enough.
He's barely been given a chance. He's had a few good games and a number of average games.Is he? Because he’s never shown anything at Utd to suggest he’s anything like a £52m footballer?
Yeah I still hold out hope, although I was also optimistic about Sanchez finally coming good...Fred is actually a very good player though and if given a chance will prove his worth. I agree on the rest of the signings you mentioned, including Lindelof, they were/are not good enough.
No..Is he in the Brazil squad for their 2 games?
True, but keep that to yourself or you'll be cited for "hating" Jesse. And (gasp!) in the Fred thread no less.He has not played enough to really judge him. Lingard on the other hand has proven time and time again that he is just a bang average footballer that would not be able to make the bench of any European top team.
Only by a year since it was coming to an end, he would have went into the next season with that being his last on the contract which would not have been an ideal situation.Perhaps, but then why did he extend his contract?
Add van Gaals disastrous signings on top of that, & Moyes’ 2 - albeit not disastrous but not resounding successes either. And it shows you why the squad is in the shape it is.My god, what a bust.

Only 4 starters at the moment, after all that investment

Both those teams stood off us. In the EPL he is trash and coat us goals. He reminds me of AndersonHe's not been bad for us at all. He's lost the ball a couple of times deep in midfield (which Pogba does 5 times a game) and it's been blown miles out of proportion.
He's quick on the ball, is good a closing down and winning the ball back, he's not dissimilar to Herrera. He should be starting for us. It seems Ole just doesn't rate him, which for me is concerning.
Yeah but the sample size to judge him is also trash. People write him off like he played a full season week in, week out in the PL with terrible performances after performances. Well nowhere near so i think we need to wait before burying him.Both those teams stood off us. In the EPL he is trash and coat us goals. He reminds me of Anderson
