It was a covid year...hardly a comparative
The squad included
Ole freestyle football, i.e. very different style...him and all staff gone. We had the 2nd highest pens at 11.
Pogba...21 games, 5 subs, 3 goals he has gone
Greenwood...21 games, 10 subs, 7 goals...on extended bail, may never return
Cavani...13 games 13 subs, 10 goals, he has gone
Matic...12 games, 8 subs, he has gone
Henderson...12 games, 1 sub, he has gone on loan
Mata 6 games, 3 subs, 1 goal...gone
James, 11 games, 4 subs, 3 goals...gone
Martial 17 games, 5 subs, 4 goals. He has become even worse and getting less games and goals.
Rashford 33 games, 4 subs, 11 goals. He has since had surgery and got 4 goals in 25 games. Not the same player.
Bruno, 35 games, 2 subs, 18 goals (9 were pens) Without so many pens he got 10 goals the following year so not quite so stand out.
There is very little about that season that is the same. In theory we should have improved after that season. James out and in came Ronaldo, Sancho and Varane.
Ronaldo has been our best player and wants to leave. Despite him being the best we have still overall been shit. A lot of what worked in 20/21 won't work again.
So yeah enough of 20/21 comparisons and positivity. I'm not buying it.
