There’s nothing wrong with the club - at least in this aspect. The fanbase is large and gets worked up easily. Minor issues are detected in medicals fairly regularly - it’s seemingly now become a thing to report it for United because it’s too easy to outrage farm the United fanbase.
Amrabat - Man United Player FINALLY - #4 confirmed
- Thread starter IrishRedDevil
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
I think Casemiro and Amrabat would give us the best balance and platform. This would also allow us to play better football as we’d be more solid and can allow the front 4 to cause problems in attack. I remember under Ole our best football was with Fred and Mctominay playing together surprisingly.

Now we have a system, players need time to be coached, understand and bed into it.
We’re not playing off vibes any more, can’t just buy someone and suggest they “go out and get stuck in”.
This is the way now, very few players will be thrown in immediately.
*’s new players would be an extreme example of this - Kalvin Phillips a VERY extreme example!

Amraback
Is this already the third signing we've made this summer where the player gets injured? 
It might be because we/I play close attention to this stuff but feels like this is spot on. Negative or positive what does it matter, all they want is clicks.
I guess Barca and their financial stuff has been used similarly. So maybe not just united. Am sure Bayern/RM in a crisis would be subject to similar nonsense.
Well he’s arrived injured so he’s off to a good start.

I feel with Amrabat - Rashford - Højlund we finally have a solid spine to build our team around.

I support the new 'signing players with spines' policy ETH has implemented; previous experiment with bringing in 'spineless' players like Sancho clearly didn't pay dividends.
Well thank feck for that. Sick and tired of the chaos with injuries, allegations and drama with our players.
People taking advantage of how low our emotions are right now. We'll latch on to any negative rumour there is - because in all likelihood its true.
Ducker you ducking beauty, the amount of fake news and gobshi$es that surround the club really is astonishing.
We need him more than Mount and Hojlund. A solid mid alongside Casemiro to hold the fort. Welcome to Manchester.
This made me laugh a lot more than it should of
Catchy
Personally, I'd like to see him play in a double-pivot with Casemiro, but the only way I see that happening long-term is if Sancho is sold AND if Antony is taken out of the mix as a result of his situation, and Mount becomes our wide right player, as I have a feeling we'll be back to a Case/Bruno/Mount midfield once Mount is fit.
Honestly, it's not the media, it's our fanbase that's toxic now. All our team can do is win really.
You have ex-players taking anyone's side except the club, Sherringh going on sky telling them Fergie wouldn't have thrown a player under the bus, when Ten Haag literally just gave team news.
You have people blaming the club for failed transfers that have barely played games for us. People crying about Evans and Maguire when 4 cbs( including Shaw) ahead of them are injured. You have people blaming the club for the handling of Greenwood, where I don't see anything else they could have done. They tried to protect his image without being part of his future. Sancho has been poor and has shown poor mentality over the last 3 seasons, somehow that's the clubs fault. Antony has a domestic violence case, that's somehow the clubs fault too. We are being lambasted for spending almost 200m on players, where Gary Neville is ashamed because we skrimped and sold to get Amrabat, yet we are stupid for signing Sancho and Antony for big money
I don't like the Glazers and they are horrible, but the things them and the club are getting blamed for is ridiculous. Our fans are impatient at the moment due to dealing with Woodward for years and expect instant success. It's ridiculous. All it's done is given the media a target in the club. We're 4 games into a season with 5 new players, where only one has played consistently. We have Amad and Mainoo injured, who would add to this squad. We have injuries to 3 of our back 4. Yes, we've lost 2 games, but to Arsenal and Spurs away. I don't see the crisis. Yet due to our fanbase, who pushed the narrative of not liking Mount before he even played, who pushed the narrative of needing more than Hojlund before he even played too. We have fans who are so eager to blame the club, supporting Sancho. It's ridiculous. It's easy just lumping the club, the glazers and everything together and blame them. But what exactly are you blaming them for? I see a good squad, who hasn't had a chance to start the season, with clear signs of progress. A good manager trying to tweak and get even more out of the team. And an impatient fanbase being exploited by rabid media personalities.

Sick of people posting shite on here that they’ve read from utter nobodies on twitter.
Oh more bullshit being 'reported' about a new United player and our fanbase laps it up. Who would've thought.
Yeah but McFred were not two 6s they were more like two no8s having to track back.
4231 gives up the middle of the pitch and the game ends up mostly played in your own half. CBs and full backs are under-used. I agree it’s more solid if you’re being dominated but we need to get away from that.
4141 or 4123 helps you press and win the ball high; the ball doesn’t come near your goal as much and you’re nearer to your opponent’s goal when you win it. It’s the way forward. We just need to practice it more and get better at it.
Without Mount, we will play a slightly different shape but I think it will be temporary.
All that said, Casemiro and Amrabat will be on the pitch together quite a bit and I think they will make a good team. They are both tough and wily and can play football!
When everyone is fit, we’ve got most bases covered now. The squad looks okay. Plenty of areas need improvement, in time, but we pretty much got exactly what we need in this window.
Well, I think Hojlund will make a bigger impact on Ten Hag's style of play, but Amrabat will be important in the big games as an extra lock, his physical presence and drive is essential to light the fire.
Watching us play on Sunday shows why we’ve gone for Ambrabat. We were missing that midfielder who wants to get on the ball and is a natural deep lying playmaker. Someone to knit defence and attack together. Can’t wait to see him play.
