It also doubles as a charity event. Can't have rich people bidding on items in a canteen. It also serves as awards ceremony for the youth teams and women's team. Shouldn't let the poor performance of the first team dampen their fun. Also, the first team I'm sure bids on some of the charity items so reason enough to invite them.
Player Awards 2019 | Luke Shaw wins
- Thread starter GDaly95
- Start date
Lindelof finished second in the Player's POTY
Shaw hasn't been good. Far from it. He's just not been quite as bad.
Speaks volumes if Pogba and Martial wasn't near the top, despite a few on here saying they're our best players and must keep, their own team mates don't rate their contribution enough to vote for them.

Where's the OP summary?
Geoff risk a boycott there.
This is amazing. He's completely right of course.
The MUTV presenter looks like he wishes the earth would open up and swallow him.
Looking at the average ratings on here, Luke Shaw was the Redcafe player of the year so stop fecking whinging!
Shaw just about deserves it for me. I liked Boycott speech. He was right, and it needed to be said.

One of my friends worked the bar on the night, said all the players were incredibly miserable and when 11pm came they all bolted away. Pretty much reflects what the rest of us have been saying, too many of these players don't give a damn about the club.
Top two players of the year for us are defenders in a season where we’ve broken records for goals conceded.
You couldn’t make this stuff up could you

There's very little to cheer about especially since I was one of the very first people to acknowledge this decline much to the outrage of most people in here. Some might say I would be gloating by now but I assure you I can't be more miserable. There's nothing satisfying in predicting the decline of the very club you have loved since you were born
I am also uncomfortable on the criteria of how this award is given. Players voting players might make sense when you've got a talented lot with the right attitude to succeed. However with these miserable lot, well, I fear it becomes more of a popularity contest. I mean can you imagine this fat slob, who can barely beat the player or defend ending up player of the year of the treble side? Id say he would be terrified training week in week out with Roy Keane around.
Don't take me wrong I don't hate Luke Shaw. I just think he's nowhere near as good to be United's quality and so is most of this team. There's absolutely nothing top notch in this season and the club should have had the balls to cancel these event for this year.
Deserved, i think he's been our most consistent player over the season.
On the other hand, can you imagine the reaction if they had been enjoying themselves? Stayed out late laughing and joking when the fans are miserable as hell, and they've got another match to play - no, I don't see that going down well either.
Pogba has the best stats in pure productivity among our players. Not even David Silva, De Bruyne, Alli, Gundogan and Bernado Silva have contributed more goals and assists. He should be winning this award on that alone IMO. Its been a shite season though, no one really cares. Shaw has had a decent season, no problems with him taking this if the players think he deserves it
Did you know that pessimists more often go into depression than others? And that in depression people perceive the world differently and skewed? And also important in this regard, pessimistic and depressive people show huge weaknesses in taking in new information than others. This leads to when something develops in a positive way, they struggle to notice, and think others are naive, overly optimistic or plain stupid when they describe the possitive change. Whereas when something develops in a negative direction, as they most often will have expected already due to their pessimism, they will see it as confirmation that they were right all along, and that their judgement is sound and even better than others.
People in a normal pessimistic state will often be able to say that somethings might be good now, but will likely deteriorate. In a depressive state they’ll often say that everything is bad, and it’s meaningless to differentiate much further. Discussing nuances will be difficult with them then.
If this pattern is pointed out to them, they will often disregard it as prejudicial by others (typically, most others are naive optimists or stupid), or if negative expectations are bad enough, that others will have an agenda.
Anyway, congrats to Luke Shaw, one of the most consistent this year of a variable bunch.
Does that has anything to do with Manchester United or football in general?
Fair play. It's amazing how many people can't handle the truth being said out loud.
Probably last time they will interview him for POTY awards. They will make sure next year to choose someone who is going to say all great things about how next year will be our year etc.
Go figure.
