I would drive him to the airport myself if we get offered anything close to 30 million
Rasmus Hojlund (Out)
- Thread starter Raoul
- Start date
I expect it'll need to be a loan the state he's in. I'm sure he'll do a Rashford and remember how to, yknow, run.
Was so hopeful for him to come back firing after the international break. Hes blown it at his childhood club. With all the chances in the world (more than he deserved).
I think there’s a player there but maybe it’s too late for him at Old Trafford. He might not be good enough but at least he tries and that’s all we can ask for
Every time he goes off we look 10+ better he’s absolutely crap
Forbid Juventus to watch the remaining games of him.
yeah i can definitely see him having a career. Forlan left Utd and moved mountains when he looked out of his depth with us.
But no matter what you do in your career, getting your dream move and it going so badly is just horrific. I do feel for him.
He has to be moved on in the summer, I’m sure he can go back to Serie A and get himself back on track. Of course the big issue is no one will pay enough for us to break even in PSR so he will have to be loaned out.
Worst striker since Dong Fanghzou.
Alan Smith was better than him.
We used to criticize Berbatov when he came, but just look at Hojlund.
We can't blame the coach, the tactics or the team mates when the player is that awful for 2 years.
He just gives you nothing, doesn't links anything. His runs seems good but it only seems.
I am done with him. There are at least 20 strikers/forward in the league better than him.
Someone posted yesterday on twitter that the summer with him, Onana and Mount was a disaster... that hurt so much

Alan Smith was miles better than him. Always be a cult hero of mine at Utd. The leg break was so cruel. Would love someone like him leading the line now. Had that sort of “ill go through you for a shortcut to get the ball” mentality that Bellamy/Deeney and those types of players had.
How much would we have to sell him for in order to break even with the financial rules?
Whatever the amount is (guessing somewhere between 35-45 million) no club in their right mind is going to pay it. I fear we're stuck with him.

Who the hell criticised Berbatov?
There was plenty of criticism in his first season, because he played with a lack of intensity, and because he replaced Tevez in the side. The forward line became less dynamic as a result, and he only got 9 league goals that year.
Berbatov got plenty of criticism in real time. I even recall Stoichkov giving him public pep talks to perform at United
His languid style wasn't appreciated by many, it was brilliant when it came off but he often got "lazy" and such criticisms. It's easily forgotten now, but that's what happened then
Huh? He was pretty divisive.
Berbatov slowed down our attacks and really didn't seem to fit in with our front 3. We arguably a much better side before we signed him.
Should be the first out the door in the summer, we need a top class striker, we can't go into games with Rasmus up front.
He seems to want to show how strong he is wrestling defenders and not creating runs, comes to the ball and no matter where the ball goes in the box he's miles off it.

I don't know who would take this guy. Happy to move on quickly, though.
Almost everyone because they felt he broke up the Ronaldo/Rooney/Tevez trio.
Lots of people. While great fun to watch and sublimely talented, he didn't work that hard and wasn't enormously mobile. The team was worse than before.
Lost all faith on him, he's not going to improve anywhere close to being a top striker, sure he may end up being a decent one but that's not what we need and can't keep wasting minutes on him hoping he might eventually turn out decent.
Too many elemental flaws in his game that I don't think can be coached at this stage, just move him on. I don't think we can get any more than 20M but whatever, just don't waste anymore minutes on him. Let Chido get them or another youngster.

It was a bit of the farce how he struggled to hold up the ball and I’d brushed aside by their CBs, then Chido comes on and the CB can’t budge him. There’s got to be something inherently wrong with his technique or something when shielding the ball, because I’ve never seen a CF struggle so much.
The first time we seen him for United he came off the bench against Arsenal away and I remember him pushing Gabriel and I thought this kid must be strong.
I don't think I've ever seen any player use his body as poorly as Hojlund does.
I think he has some raw strength, but he really doesn’t use it well. He also seems to have poor balance sometimes.
These aren't even basics anymore, it's whatever the stuff before basics are
It was really odd to watch. Hojlund backs into the defender, knees bent to use his weight. But like you said I think this throws off his balance and when he’s leaning on the CB it just allows them to use his own weight to just nudge him to the side. Chido Obi received one pass at chest height and he just stood upright and barely budged when they were pushing him. And Chido, whilst tall, looks like there’s nothing to him.
I’m sure the coaches can figure it out but it’s odd how nobody has managed it yet. There’s CFs in the league far smaller than him who can shield a ball miles better than him.
