I've been really impressed with Mertens. I don't care if he's 30 or 31. Technically he's very very good and he should be one of the main targets for RW. Can also play LW too. We don't even have any wingers at the club so we should be looking for more than 1.
Or even simpler than that, a player that actually tries to feed him. Mertens is a player that gives him respect. I wouldn't trust Rashford, Sanchez or Lingard to ever play it through to him. Martial does it sometimes but there's a real issue with the chemistry of our attack.
The Belgium coaches have just been saying recently how much he's improved this season. Mourinho is transforming him, not sure what you're on about. The difference is in the players around him.
Everything we hear about him from coaches is positive. Eager to learn. Incredibly intelligent and driven . Humble. We're looking at that ideal United player. He will be great for us.
Yes?
I'm not sure why you single out those 3 players here. Just because it doesn't come off that often doesn't mean they don't try.
The differences between us & Belgium is their player from fullback , cm and attackers were keep looking at Lukaku , try to find him , check his run & feed him regularly . We didn't
they would if they can only win a major honour
I don't think Rom would be our starting striker with these 2.
If that was KDB with that ball you know exactly where it's going.
You don't recall classics like this from last season? I remember it happened against Bristol the game before too!
I haven't even watched United a lot, and I've seen this happen a lot from the the said players (especially Rashford).
This is exactly my feeling. All of his finishes at the World Cup have been top drawer. We need to find a way to consistently service the lad next season. His conversion rate is superior to Kane - what he lacks is the same supply line.
I can also recall "classics" when they do feed Lukaku, including Rashford in the 1st half of the season. Rashford clearly lost his way a bit as the season wore on (seems like he's trying too hard to imitate Ronaldo

), but claiming that he wouldn't "ever" feed Lukaku due to some lack of "respect" is, I believe, revisionism based on his poor 2018.Feck me, look at Rashford?

Go rewatch Belgium's first game against Panama and how many times Hazard/Mertens have been selfish, taking chances themselves instead of passing it to Lukaku or even squaring it.

He's had the capability to score goals like that for ages (e.g. here, here and here) he just got very few opportunities playing in an Everton team that was built around crosses.
Like most of our attackers, he’s suffered due to the way that the manager has set the team up.
Jose isn’t shit, but the tactics he’s deployed for the vast majority of last season do not compliment attacking players at all. Our whole game is based around not conceding, which makes us a frustrating and painfully boring team to watch.
I'm supposed to support England, but the english media constantly crucifying United players and the English FA being so badly run has made me dislike England.
How good do they think England are?! They have everything to fear if that's what the guys on the pod think about Lukaku.
The english media always make it difficult to like England in every World Cup. I don't support them anyway, but i also don't dislike the team. There's a few players i really like. Obviously the United lads, but some others also. But the shit that surrounds it (the media, the pundits, the commentary) is just so grating.
Well judging how defensive they got when Jimbo challenged them slightly on not giving Belgium enough credit, but lauding England for only just beating the same team, they're either extremely insecure or genuinely think England are one of the best teams there.
What's wrong with that? No he isn't, but there's no getting away from the fact that he's great in the air. Some decent balls in to the box on the odd occasion and he would be scoring more goals than he is.
