i cannot believe he scored a goal with his right foot....he must have closed his eyes and just swung his boot when Mason put it on a plate for him
Ha I thought of you when he scored! He's not my cup of tea at all but he chipped in with a vital goal today. With his horrid right foot too. Excellent!@MrSingh2002 another goal involvement for that terrible DM Fred...
He did! But to be fair, we were taking a lot of punts at that point in the game and the box was filled with United players, there was no need for as many hit and hopes as we were doinghttps://streamwo.com/file/61acda1fef6e7
Did Ronaldo punch his hand in anger because Fred took the shot on?
His shooting technique is underrated.Why the fuss about his right foot? He’s always been rather two footed and equally inept at shooting with either of them.
No it hasnt. Once again an inability to give him credit for improvement. This is one of the most requested improvements, and shock, horror, nobody is asking him to improve on that match. Because he did it.Because crediting Fred for forward passes now, is like crediting Metallica for making heavy music in 2021.
His passing into the final 3rd has always been good and he's always been very quick in transitions, decent touch, decent on both feet, etc. There's plenty written about it with stats to back it up. He's by far our best CM.
Always looked like he could have a good effort from range even if he never scored, although Im not sure I quite got him standing there for freekicks when he used to do thatHis shooting technique is underrated.
His first goal for us, against Wolves was with his right foot.Why the fuss about his right foot? He’s always been rather two footed and equally inept at shooting with either of them.
Enter Amadou Haidara.As I said in the McT thread, imagine how much better we’d be if we played with two Freds instead of McT + Fred? Says it all really.
MinutesRalf has transformed Fred’s right foot in a matter of days
yeah! He’s savage. We knew it all along.Nothing pleases me more with this team than to see Fred excelling. 4 games in a row he has had a really great shout for MoTM. I love this guy and I hope more of our fanbase really start to appreciate what he brings to this team.
I think he is better than Kante and have done for a very long time. Perhaps not as physically strong as him, but he's a much better footballer and is more ambitious and technical in his play, despite it not always coming off.Finally playing his Brazilian CM role and it's starting to show the difference.
Nowhere near as good as Kante but it's good that we have our version in the squad.

Just my opinion mate. I've always considered Kante a limited player. A necessary cog in a well oiled machine. Good at what he does? Sure, but merely functional, rather than his media inflated reputation as the 'second coming of Roy Keane' he is portrayed as being.

Each to their own man but Kante is one of those players...very high level for years and not much debate around him...he is easily one of the best in the world at doing what he does...not usually a debate. I’m not get into belittling Fred. He is doing great of late...onward and upward.Just my opinion mate. I've always considered Kante a limited player. A necessary cog in a well oiled machine.

Yeah, no problem with any of that palEach to their own man but Kante is one of those players...very high level for years and not much debate around him...he is easily one of the best in the world at doing what he does...not usually a debate.

This would be a very functional midfield. To play a pressing game, the midfield has to be a real workhorse. We can rotate the front 4, which allows for us to stay fresh.Enter Amadou Haidara.
