It's become pretty evident that simply isn't the case. The two previous managers tried to replace him, and he ended up becoming key players again under them. Not surprising he's not a big player for PSG too. Criminally underrated.
Football fans having over the top obsessions with individual players on social media is no longer weird, unfortunately.
Very true. I'm guilty of it myself.
How does he even start for PSG with this logic?
I didn’t see the whole game but my understanding is PSG are finally playing a back 5 with a billion pound team? I think that’s what they really needed. A more solid defence and some steel in the middle. play one or two less attackers.
I know a guy who has gone back to supporting United because Ronaldo's back here.
Did you watch the game, lol?
What was it Brian Clough said about great teams needing a blend of concert pianists and piano shifters?
32 year old man on TikTok will always be weird
They were playing a back 4.
I thought with the Hakimi signing they were going to a back 5? Looked to be 3 central at all times in the highlights?
Very true. I'm guilty of it myself.
Reo-Coker to United FFS, c'mon Ole. It's time. He's only 37 and with his physicality he could have kept going til he's 40
They weren't particularly amazing yesterday to be honest but what's wrong with thinking Herrera is a good but not great CM? He was the same for us.
Eh? He was excellent. Doing so much of the dirty work. He was filling in all game at right back, and then PSGs furthest forward midfielder a moment later. He kept the ball well and had excellent off the ball movement, often creating space for others.
No one at PSG (bar maybe Verratti) kept the ball well. Herrera in particular was guilty of erroneous passes numerous times through the night
Nope. 4 3 3 but herrera plays on the right of the 3 and has to do the job of 2 men because messi doesn't defend. The right back is ridiculously attacking as well so he sounds alot of time sliding into rb.
They werent amazing in beating City who are probably the 2nd strongest team in the competition 2-0?
Yes I've seen the match where the best lineup in the competition beat the 2nd best lineup 2-0
I've got to ask, what game were you watching?
Ah Jeez, I remember you! This reply is less shocking remembering how hard you crusaded against Lindelof being obviously fouled by Diagne.
Thats it try to distract from the fact you're suggesting an average team with average players beats City in the champions league, or gets to the final 2 years ago
Yes.... that is exactly what I am saying. Watching the game now. Adieu.
Agree. People don't understand tactic. Herrera may not be a DM to cover the whole back 4, but he's tactically clever to be used to fill in and support defensive duty. Something I don't see we with Fred.
Not just that but has has an attacking threat with a great goalscoring record this season, and even for us came up with big goals and had a season where he got plenty of goals. Ander has qualities not just in defending, not just in running around a lot, but also in attack which allows him to do all of them in a team where he has teammates also doing those things. At PSG for example he has players like Gueye who does a similar job, or sometimes wins the ball even more than Ander and that means Ander doesnt have to worry so much about doing all the defending so he can get forward more and be that goal threat. At United he had to do the defending for Matic and Pogba, so of course in that system he was unable to get forward as much or score as regularly.
I could ask you the same thing!
I don't know how anyone could read my post and come to the conclusion I said he was great on the ball.I could ask you the same thing!
I don't know how anyone could watch that game and compliment PSG or most of their players for being great on the ball
You said he kept the ball well!I don't know how anyone could read my post and come to the conclusion I said he was great on the ball.
I said he was good. Hyperbole is an ugly look for you.
