Hang on.
So you are trying to say that Ronaldo consistently scoring in the final minutes of some of the games is not individual brilliance?
We rely on buying Galactico class players
You pinpoint exactly what I meant
Ronaldo’s goals are off course individual brilliance, but the first goal also is an example of true team play and United style of Play.
Acoring in the first or last minute of the game doesn’t matter. It’s only about your perception.
The same argument “rely on individual brilliance” was also used before Ronaldo arrived.
Barcelona relied on Messi, Dortmund on Haaland, Tottenham used to rely on Kane. Many on this forum excused Liverpool’s almost catastrophic season with the injury of VVD, so I think the United critique “rely on individual brilliance” is very difficult to understand. Individual brilliance It’s certainly not a problem.To me it seems like the phrase is used because someone lack words or find it hard to describe what they really mean.
Is the problem lack of style/pattern? No in my opinion. I think it’s more about someone eventually doesn’t like our style of play. I recognise the football United want to play. The problem is that we don’t manage to implement it fully. Mostly because we struggle with the team balance and our midfield (Ole’s responsibility).
Just to say it….Neither me was happy with our performance yesterday and most of this season (the match against Tottenham was perfect. The match against City is win/draw or Ole have to leave his post.
