Ole just said he is fully fit and will play next game.
And we come full circle no one is going to take you seriouslyThe Phil Jones comment was tongue in cheek but yes I'd take a chance on a nameless individual from the youth over Rashford if Greenwood and Martial are unavailable.
That would be a bad decision considering none of the strikers in our youth teams are anywhere near as good as him. Why would you actively want to play a worse player and make things worse?The Phil Jones comment was tongue in cheek but yes I'd take a chance on a nameless individual from the youth over Rashford if Greenwood and Martial are unavailable.
Greenwood isn't ready. You could see that tonight. If we had a fit experienced centre forward Rashford should have been rested as he wasn't 100% fit.Like I said, anybody. Greenwood, somebody from the youth set up. I'd play Jones up top over him at this point.
He wastes just about every opportunity he gets. He’s part of the problem, frankly.He plays up front for a team that creates no chances. I wouldn't say it has been a phenomenal opportunity up to now.
Getting 250k a week (rising to 350k) at that age could do that to you.feck him. No heart. He's stopped running which is his best quality.
Who says they are worse? Rashford wouldn't look out of place in league 2 or our youth team currently so there's no way to say our youth strikers are any worse based on current form.That would be a bad decision considering none of the strikers in our youth teams are anywhere near as good as him.

One of my main problems with Ole is that he always seems to come at situations in a "hope for the best" manner. He plans for if things go perfectly, no one gets injured, both Martial and Rashford kick on. There seems to be no room for contingencies.The only player we have to replace him is Greenwood.
As much as I like Greenwood, he's 17. We shouldn't be relying on him at this stage so, unfortunately, we're having to play Marcus through injury and poor form.
I don't know how Ole/whoever thought not bringing in another attacker after letting both Lukaku and Alexis go was a good idea. I could see this problem coming from a mile away.
Thats what's annoying; It's all self-inflicted....
This.Dropped for who?
Drop him on his arse for a couple of games. See if he wants to play football again.Getting 250k a week (rising to 350k) at that age could do that to you.
Apologies, I would not have dragged this out had I known you weren't being serious.Who says they are worse? Rashford wouldn't look out of place in league 2 or our youth team currently so there's no way to say our youth strikers are any worse based on current form.
Already thought of that, who plays in his place? 17 year old Greenwood? Lingard false 9? Me?Drop him on his arse for a couple of games. See if he wants to play football again.
Greenwood or you. And nobody else!Already thought of that, who plays in his place? 17 year old Greenwood? Lingard false 9? Me?
Unfortunately you can't see the reality of the situation. Take care.Apologies, I would not have dragged this out had I known you weren't being serious.
Carry on.
Greenwood or you. And nobody else!
Because our manager allowed forwards to leave the club, leaving us with a 17 year old as next choice.Rashford has been utterly diabolical lately. How the manager doesn’t see it is impossible to explain.
Can you really blame Pogba for wanting to leave?Half of the forum members would score that before rashford.
