Agree. A defensive combo of Saliba and Martinez would have been a rock solid combo. Gabriel is the way to get to Arsenal for opponents.I’m glad Timber turned us down I can’t shudder the thought of Licha in this arsenal team.
Fecking Arsenal wanted him at left back.I’m glad Timber turned us down I can’t shudder the thought of Licha in this arsenal team.
Would easily have been the best in the league.Agree. A defensive combo of Saliba and Martinez would have been a rock solid combo. Gabriel is the way to get to Arsenal for opponents.
Id still take VVD and Konate over that. But it would have been good agreedWould easily have been the best in the league.
As it stands Saliba contract is expiring in summer.
Martinez is the best passing CB in the league. VVD dropping a bit basically means he is at a similar level to Saliba. And then you have Konate's injury issues.Id still take VVD and Konate over that. But it would have been good agreed
VVD is as good a passer by the way and quite onbviously Im not just talking about current formMartinez is the best passing CB in the league. VVD dropping a bit basically means he is at a similar level to Saliba. And then you have Konate's injury issues.
Thank you for that excellent analysis.In real life maybe but when you refer to someone as a butcher you think hard man, hard tackles, takes no sht. You dont think skilled and clinical. When they call a murderer a butcher they are not referring to his/her excellent surgical knife skills
WC is coming up, Varane will be back for boxing day. Only a few games to get through. United should have enough at the back to see us though, hopefully.He's good but I do worry that he needs Varane next to him to get the best out of him. Still not comfortable with Maguire or Lindelof next to him.
I doubt our defence will be rock solid until Varane returns. Those two will make us wonky again. Which is why we need to let one go and sign another CB who is starter material.He's good but I do worry that he needs Varane next to him to get the best out of him. Still not comfortable with Maguire or Lindelof next to him.
The media/pundits don't do well with admitting they were wrongHe's amazing. I don't know why the media aren't gushing over his displays this season.
It's an incredibe shot, and that guy has a picture and memory for life now.That’s quality! Imagine being that fan and a professional player tweets about you. Quality scenes
Thank you for that excellent analysis.
Took the weekend and didn't come up with a single name. He's the best CB in the leagueI'm struggling to think of better CB's than him in the league
At the time, probably although our goals conceded leaves a lot to be desiredTook the weekend and didn't come up with a single name. He's the best CB in the league
There hasn't been a word spoke about him since Carragher wouldn't stop talking about his height in the first game.He's amazing. I don't know why the media aren't gushing over his displays this season.

That's why fan created content is robbing them of views, these days.There hasn't been a word spoke about him since Carragher wouldn't stop talking about his height in the first game.

He’s not really like Vidic. He’s more a hybrid of Rio/Vidic. He’s so much better on the ball than Vidic was and looks more of a reader of the game like Rio than Vidic who relied more on physicality.Our new vidic? Surprised anyone hasn’t compared them really. Both warriors and fighters. Martinez is scared of nobody and nothing.
Based on those first couple of long balls - how about putting him on corners? (If United ever do a long corner again.)Tweet

He doesn't play for Liverpool. Simple.He's amazing. I don't know why the media aren't gushing over his displays this season.

I wasn’t joking! He’s a good header of the ball I wouldn’t want to take him out of the box
Joking aside, height isn't necessarily a key factor at those anyway. In the Dutch national team, Frank de Boer was always absolutely awesome at them (including attacking headers), and he's just 1.80m/5'11".
They said he was shite in this thread. I still remember coming here after the brentford game where literally De Gea, Maguire and Dalot were a total disaster yet they came here to write Lisandro off just because he slipped in a header.Remember when people were hoping we’d play him at DM?

Still can't believe someone tried to tell us after the first several games, where even then it was clear he was a step above, 'Martinez has shown the same passing ability as the other centre backs (Lindelof and Maguire)'.What’s that Lindelof fanboy called? He needs to watch this
The funny thing is that he's pretty good in the box too. It's not happened lately but he's got on the end of several good chances.Based on those first couple of long balls - how about putting him on corners? (If United ever do a long corner again.)
I was impressed with him in the Brighton game. You could see immediately. Lindelof seems a decent guy but he’s never ever impressed me.Still can't believe someone tried to tell us after the first several games, where even then it was clear he was a step above, 'Martinez has shown the same passing ability as the other centre backs (Lindelof and Maguire)'.
