It was enjoyable to see Ibrahimovic at united but cavani for me, we were little too predictable with Ibrahimovic in the side and one paced.
This is a fair point. You have to build in the negative Jose factor.I’d say Cavani is more suited to our style. Marginal. But also notable that I think Cavani is playing in more fluent side than a Jose side.
Wait are you going to pretend Cavani hasn't missed loads of sitters? Until his recent string of goals he missed a bunch of sitters.haha zlatan the serial misser!
No doubt one of the most overrated players in our history.
The undisputed king of the big miss! irc he had double the number of big misses than the next guy in the prem.
and his goal stats were inflated because he used to take penalties.
and his goal stats were inflated because he used to take free kicks - haha got you on that one, his free kicks were absolutely diabolical!
Just because Jose used to say after every game he is world class and the rest of the team is crap doesn't mean he was!
Which sitters has he missed this season? He has had some half chances to decent chances that he didn’t put away but I don’t recall any sitters.Wait are you going to pretend Cavani hasn't missed loads of sitters? Until his recent string of goals he missed a bunch of sitters.
He is a player who needs a number of chances only difference is zlatan influences both sides of the ball. Off the ball and on it.
I agree. It's what everyone has been saying all along. Zlatan was a better fit for that side and manager's style. Cavani suits the current one better.we have a vastly better team and less negative manager
What are you talking about he has missed loads of sitters even against Roma he missed 2 sitters. Cavani is and has always been a players who needs 3/4 chances before scoring. The only difference is that he has great movement. Which zlatan also has anyway.Which sitters has he missed this season? He has had some half chances to decent chances that he didn’t put away but I don’t recall any sitters.
For some reason some people seem to think that any half chance is easy to put away and every striker has to score every chance they get. I’d love to see what of you would have done with these “chances”.
So has Cavani the difference is zlatan created plenty of chances for others aswell. Zlatan contributed 38 goals and assists in 46 games. You guys really are bugging. He did way better than Cavani has it isn't even close.Ibra wasted so many chances, it kinda soured me on his time here
Yeah having a more fluent side definitely helps attackers and as you mentioned - both top top players. Pity we got them both as stop gaps, when they’re past their best.This is a fair point. You have to build in the negative Jose factor.
Both top level players in their time. Pity the both of them wasted a large portion of their prime in Paris.
I don’t know if you’re related to Ibrahimovic or something, but you need to relax. All I posted was that his flagrant misses soured me on his time here. I do not need you throwing whoscored ratings at me.So has Cavani the difference is zlatan created plenty of chances for others aswell. Zlatan contributed 38 goals and assists in 46 games. You guys really are bugging. He did way better than Cavani has it isn't even close.
Cavani has 17 contributions in 33 games. And isn't even involved off the ball anywhere near as often as zlatan whilst also missing chances and playing in a much better team.
Who scored has Cavani at 6.7
Zlatan at 7.5 in their respective united seasons.
Its just recent bias. Zlatan also won us a final.
Neymar will not be playing as a high level at their age.I think Zlatan was exactly what was needed then, a vocal leader, someone to keep Pogba in check and raise the level of what was pretty much an old poor squad (De Gea, Pogba and a few aside).
Cavani is what we need now, a stable professional who will provide the finishong touches to a very good young team.
Both have proven their value and to compare them is difficult, whatever both turned out good.
Looking forward to Neymar in a few years

How? Yesterday cavani missed 2 sitters and scored 2. He misses alot of sitters that is how he always has been. He isn't anywhere near as good as zlatan on the ball. Thats just a fact.Are you extracting the urine?
And Zlatan isn't anywhere near as good as Cavani off the ballHow? Yesterday cavani missed 2 sitters and scored 2. He misses alot of sitters that is how he always has been. He isn't anywhere near as good as zlatan on the ball. Thats just a fact.
Where is the issue?
What are you talking about? Zlatan has absolutely superb off the ball movement. That is why he was able to get into so many goal scoring opportunities.And Zlatan isn't anywhere near as good as Cavani off the ball
As for missing chances. So did Zlatan he used to miss 2-3 sitters at times and people were going crazy how every keeper suddenly turned world class when it was our poor finishing that was costing us games
Half the goals and assists in half the minutes.Ibra
Cavani
Oh cmon Zlatan never moved off the ball like Cavani does. Zlatan's way more static.What are you talking about? Zlatan has absolutely superb off the ball movement. That is why he was able to get into so many goal scoring opportunities.
Also that was my point both zlatan and Cavani miss loads of chances difference is zlatan creates way more chances for others.
He did though both sides he'd come to the ball and go in behind. How do you think he got so many chances? Especially since he played in a worse team.Oh cmon Zlatan never moved off the ball like Cavani does. Zlatan's way more static.

A lot of disrespect for Zlatan's time here it's ridiculous. It's like we can't love both, no, one of them must be shit.Zlatan was main player in EL and League cup. Two trophies ffs. Despite how much i love Cavani, no contest here.
Like everything here. "You are with us or against us". If you think that something is better then by default, you are saying other thing is shit. Amazing logicA lot of disrespect for Zlatan's time here it's ridiculous. It's like we can't love both, no, one of them must be shit.
I enjoyed the prospect of having both leading the line for us at different times, but of course for some here they can't even do that.
You must really hate Zlatan.haha zlatan the serial misser!

Agreed. Cavani is much more likeable as a person but this wouldn’t even be a thread if they both hadn’t been on a free from PSG. They are different players with different roles, both with injury problems but one vastly out scored the other and won trophies.Zlatan was main player in EL and League cup. Two trophies ffs. Despite how much i love Cavani, no contest here.
