  1. Alejandro Garnacho | 2023/24 Performances

    Rashford's last year level was between Ronaldo 06/07 and Richardson 06/07. As you said Ronaldo was considered the second best player in the world back then. He had already been probably the best player of his national team the last summer. Rashford was not even good for a few good months last...
  2. Striker options?

    Pavlidis would be a good 3rd choice striker. Or a backup in the bottom half. His record with the national team is not really good. He seems more like someone who can succeed at the Eredivise level, but I doubt he can be a reliable top 6 player backup player. For Greek players I would suggest...
  3. Most exciting teams that never won anything

    But it wasn't an exciting team. Only in 2018, I remember the team was able to dominate and play fun games (for me the best side in the WC) . On 2014 and 2016, it was a boring team, centered around defense and physicality.
  4. Marcus Rashford (Out)

    Oliseh can be one of the options. Kvara too, but maybe he is too expensive. Thinking that we also have Diallo and Forson, I would go for a more experienced forward. Unfortunately, I don't keep up with the rest of the leagues, but certainly there is someone with this profile in Spain, France...
  5. Marcus Rashford (Out)

    Pellistri and Greenwood are not in the club. Martial is not even used. Antony is now a bench player. Essentially, we can replace Rashford and all the rest with 2 players.
  6. Transfer Tweets - Manchester United - 2023/24

    Or we can structure a deal with massive add-ons but not based just on league appearances etc. More like titles. I think Rooney was like that? Eventually, if we win a PL title I doubt we would care if he just become 70m squad player in a team that wins the league.
  7. Managers' leeway for defensive tactics

    Because I said that Maguire can't play at an attacking team in the highest level. I didn't say he can't play at the highest level at all.
  8. Managers' leeway for defensive tactics

    Is England playing attacking football? I am not watching England regularly, but in the World Cup, they didnt play attacking football against the better sides.
  9. Managers' leeway for defensive tactics

    No, he can play at an attacking team. Just not a team that can challenge in the highest level.
  10. Managers' leeway for defensive tactics

    So, Ole decided to stop playing counter football, after having already spend 120 millions on Maguire and AWB, players suited only for defensive football. Smart guy. Same with ETH. If your players can't play your football, don't play them. I m sure if he had make it clear that Bruno, McT and...
  11. André Onana | 2023/24 Performances

    Even at his low period few months ago, he didn't seem afraid to ask for the ball to break the press.
  12. Kobbie Mainoo | 2023/24 Performances

    I am sure even Scholes would look lost at some points with Bruno and McT next to him. We need to find a cm to accomplish him.
  13. Music Remixes or covers better than the original songs

    Led Zeppelin - When the Levee Breaks Vanilla Fudge - Keep me hanging on (depends on the mood really, since I quite prefer the original some times) Run dmc - walk this way
  14. Who replaces Ten Hag?

    I don't necessarily disagree with you. He has shown he is not top class. If you add the awful transfers then there is no other choice. I just think that if we had a better squad planning prior to him, he would need to a) rely on McT etc and b) he would stay away from recruiting players like...
  15. Who replaces Ten Hag?

    Well he is not. He has provided some good results and his legacy will be good if Garnacho, Mainoo and Hojlund manage to become dominant. But he has proved that he is far away from pep and klopp, even Arteta and Ange. He is not elite. 1.5 years later and we still play dross with only some...
