  1. Can penalty-taking be trained?

    Yes you can train so you have the ability to score the penalty, it's doesn't mean you will be a good penalty taker though. On the training pitch the premier leagues players will bury penalties time after time after time. There's videos with average players scoring whilst blindfolded. It's 12...
  2. Post match vs Nottingham Forest

    Lisandro, casemiro, Shaw, Maguire, lindleof, malacia, mount, Amrabat, martial, hojlund, all out. 10 different centre back pairings alone in 20 games. Why do people expect we are going look cohesive?
  3. Jadon Sancho (Out)

    @THE ZOL At the fourth time of asking, could you please tell me what he has been scapegoated for so I can understand? Yes - I agree public criticism won't work with everyone including Sancho evidently. But if you're not putting in the effort that is required of you, than your manager is...
  4. Jadon Sancho (Out)

    @THE ZOL 1) - Why shouldn't players be criticised in public? ETH has criticised other players, Rashford and Garnacho are two example of this. Neither threw their toys out the pram, they took it on the chin and came back into the team . Fergie has done it before, Rooney as you mentioned, Nani...
  5. Jadon Sancho (Out)

    @THE ZOL Zol, I replied to you in the Sancho performance thread but you seemed to have missed it. The reply seems apt here though as well to your above posts so I'll post it again. 1) Sancho didn’t warrant being criticised publicly? Why not? Other plays have been, rashford and garnacho are...
  6. Jadon Sancho | 2023/24 Performances | Dortmund (loan)

    There is a lot I disagree with in your post (pretty much all of it in fact) but this part in particular. 1) he didn’t warrant being criticised publicly? Why not? Other plays have been, rashford and garnacho are two example of this. So why shouldn’t sancho be called out if he hasn’t met the...
  7. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    Some balance to the discussion. Not excuses as ETH simply has to be doing better, but- Your first choice RB is out, both your starting CB's are out, and your 1st, 2nd & 3rd choice loanee RB are out. There is no foundation to build from at all. A GK in his first year, make shift CBs, a...
  8. Moises Caicedo | Chelsea agree £115M fee | signed for Chelsea

    2 years difference, which isn't much longevity wise, but it is at an age where you are still developing. Where Moises could be in 2 years is quite significant, whereas mid 20s (Mount) is where you expect to see more consistency rather than actual improvement
  9. Manchester United vs Newcastle United

    Ahh, not televised :( any rivers would be most unwelcome...
  10. All ticket/travel information thread - 2023/24 edition - Please be careful purchasing tickets

    Is this tickets for the whole season? or will there be another release later in the year?
  11. Manchester United vs Newcastle United

    Any recommend a river to jump in?
  12. Will you be paying for the Newcastle game?

    Nobody pm me a river okay, that would be just be unwelcome
  13. Ole Gunnar Solskjær | 2021/22 Discussion

    That's how it used to be. The manager had control to build his team. it was like that under SAF and it was kept that way post SAF, until now. Different point of matter, but, personally i don't agree. I think Ole is the man to the rebuild, and he'll get us to a point where we have a team with...
  14. Ole Gunnar Solskjær | 2021/22 Discussion

    Thats how it used to be, under SAF, and since then. Others could advise and provide opinion, but the manager made the decision. Now it's not, now the decision is everyone's. If someone doesn't agree then the transfer doesn't go ahead. Stops short term signings by a mgr. Exactly how it should...
