In Rainbows's latest activity

  • Not everything was a fact. His footwork and dribbling have always been average. Just because he occasionally puts in a trick which gets him past a defender doesn't mean his dribbling was good. A good dribbler can average 3 dribbles a game. His...
  • In Rainbows replied to the thread Marcus Rashford (Out).
    Why not? Chelsea just did it. City have done it. If we truly believe he's not good, just let him be another team's problem.
  • Bring in Amass
  • But what is his ideal system? That's one of the main reasons why I dislike his managing this season. That it's what he's currently dishing out this season considering he refuses to adjust (not necessarily a bad thing in a vacuum), or it's...
  • You keep talking about fallacies, and you're the one with the straw man fallacy. Nobody is saying United park the bus. We're saying Ten Hag's tactics are crap because he doesn't value control or compactness. His team selections do not paint Ten...
  • Then Ten Hag either has no clue in how to incorporate a successful organized press, or he doesn't value it properly because Rashford's effort levels regardless of form, doesn't justify as much time as he has gotten. There is no logical line of...
  • In other words, we're supposed to believe he's trying to transition to a new style that doesn't fit Rashford, that he will achieve it by having newer players that are different from Rashford, but yet continues to play Rashford currently. Doesn't...
  • Start valuing compactness, and picking players that facilitate control, both in possession and in allowing you to have compactness. I'm not a results oriented person when it comes to setting up the foundation of a title winning team. Get United...
  • The reason why I don't believe in this explanation is due to results masking performances, and his player selection with the players he has. This shows the players are actually giving us results, and his tactics are making it worse for us. If...
  • It doesn't take this long to develop your style of play. Either he's bad at accomplishing the basics of what he wants us to play like, or his play style is crap and not worth continuing. Personally, I believe it's the latter. He doesn't value...
  • Angel Gomes uses his technical ability, patience, and brain to not let others tackle him. If you put him in a bad situation, he can find a way out because him being small + technical ability allows him to turn his marker away from him. He would...
  • The thing is, I don't have sympathy for someone about player profile when he doesn't even play those player profiles that he has at his disposal. Either he doesn't know how to recognize the right profiles (not in transfers, but in team selection)...
  • You would need 3 more Kobbie Mainoos that are also more athletic than Kobbie Mainoo to even have a chance.
  • In Rainbows replied to the thread U21s: United vs Liverpool.
    I actually think the fluidity is making the u21s not look as good. Before, we would promote you and you would stay in u21s unless there was an important FA Youth Cup match. Now, we're bringing back players who already have shown enough in u18...
  • In Rainbows replied to the thread U18s: Liverpool 1-9 United.
    Are you really counting on that happening again? Feels unreasonable. Most people base their opinions based on what's likely to happen.
