Would be cool if Greenwood got the 7 shirt next season but that seems to sap player's powers these days.
MMM (Mason, Marcus, Martial) = BBC (Bale, Benzema, Cristiano)
- Thread starter Amadaeus
- Start date
I know that Sancho will make an impact as good as Bruno. But, it will be at the cost of one of MMM. Most likely Greenwood at the moment unless Martial shows disinterest again. I like the chemistry between these three and adding Sancho will most likely see Greenwood become a bit player because Sancho will always play if we get him.
If you think Rashford should be a bench player. You are the one that needs the make up and floppy shoes.
I’m not concerned by your opinions if they are all like this
Greenwood will be fine. I think it's Rashford who'll be in trouble.
Rashford would have 30 goals by now if he hadn't gotten injured. Thank Christ you lunatics do not run our club.
We still buy Sancho IMO. Greenwood is a number 9, but can obviously play out wide. Having Sancho adds another dimension to this team. Realistically we only buy him at the right price. If they still value him at absurd money then i'd prefer to buy a CB and LB instead.
Don't see us meeting Dortmund's original asking price with Greenwood's breakout. The 100m asking price required us to be desperate which we might no longer be.
Who drops out if we sign Sancho?
Which CB and LB would you sign of we don't go with Sancho?
First time we've had two players score 20 in years and one of them is being questioned. Incredible.
We play more than 1 game per season.
Someone also suggested Rashford should be loaned out lols.Someone suggested he should be loaned to us next season
I am hoping Sancho also signs and our attacking choices will be insane.
Friendly bump
its utterly ridiculous. Rashford should be on the bench or loaned out. Jesus.
Looks promising for you, I’m not fully convinced about your defence though.
There’s a stat that they’ve scored more goals in all competitions this season than Liverpool’s front 3.
Out scored Liverpool's front 3 in all comps apparently.
Edit: Damn.
Edit: Damn.
Because this just doesn't strike me as winning mentality. We're meant to say we're not interested in Sancho as it might hinder the development of what's already here, sorry but that just makes no sense to me. There will be plenty of games, plenty of injuries. None of our front 3 are even proven world class yet, competition is a good thing, not a bad thing, it's what allows the cream to rise to the top.
On top of this none of our front 3 are a Sancho type, none of them are even a RW in reality. Really on current form it would be Rashford to miss out anyway, the other two have been in much better form since the resumption, but that's why options are key, options lead to more consistency. We're in form recently, but yet we're still in a battle for top 4, miles from winning any of the big trophies, some context is needed before people go too overboard.
I hope we do something to fix the defence. Currently, Maguire is the weak link and I hope he improves dramatically next season.
That negative miserable tit would probably have disapproved of all that attacking football on display today
What I liked most recently about these 3 is they all can play as strikers, thus all of them can cut inside the box while the other 2 go wide. So much flexibility there. Gives the opponent a big headache.
whoever is his partner is the weak link.
Is there any top team that starts with a front 4?
Asking for a friend.
Asking for a friend.
How? Lindelof actually has been the better player since the restart.
They were switching it around more today. It must be a nightmare to defend against them
I disagree, and especially over the course of the season. I’m sure we can agree Bailly is a weak link.
thank goodness for our forwards today.
I mean, if we buy Sancho then one of the four will end up being on the bench a bit more than the others. Obviously in the short-term it'll be Greenwood, but after another season or so it'll end up being whoever is performing the worst (or perhaps combines the worst) of the four. It very well could end up with Rashford being the one slightly behind the other three.If you think Rashford should be a bench player. You are the one that needs the make up and floppy shoes.
I’m not concerned by your opinions if they are all like this
Obviously Desert Eagle is going overboard and it won't be happening in the short-term though.
And if one of them gets hurt (Been the case each season for Rash and Martial) what then? Throw James back out there for potential big games?
This idea that adding another young English contemporary of there's being a detriment to their development is overblown to me. I actually think it'd be positive for the developments of all of them having that sort of competition in the squad
Having 3-4 top class strikers/forwards never hurt the chemistry under Fergie and only helped sustain title challenges over whole seasons
Greenwood is still only 18 so relying on him as an out and out starter week in and week out is a tough ask, there would still be plenty of matches (60+ potentially) for everyone to get ample playing time
If we spent 30m on Maguire and given someone else the armband he would have probably had a different opinion
If we sign Pochettino and sancho we wouldn’t even need to greenwood and we’d dominate everything
When was the last time we had three players score 20+? Hoping Greenwood gets us there
With the fluidity and dynamism of this front 3 we are not overly reliant on one player taking the goal scoring load like we have been in the last few seasons. If all 3 can hit that 20-25 goals per season most defence's wont know how to handle us going forward. We should be able to score goals for fun.
What an exciting front 3 we have.
What an exciting front 3 we have.
Never in the PL era
Exactly, can't understand why people don't see that even with Sancho, the members of the MMM will still get loads of game time. Also, why can't all 4 play together in certain situations?
He is getting the nō20 next season
We need Sancho as backup for one of these three....
20 would be fitting but I think he's earning no.11
I genuinely think that our current front 3 is as fluid as our Ronaldo era front 3. They lack a bit of consistency (off days, where they are anonymous) and a bit of killer touch, but they have all the potential to get there and maybe even better them in terms of output
no.
but also this is not the thread - I’m as guilty as anyone for taking it off topic.
