He needs to get out of this club, I've never hated watching a player for us this much before.
I have great respect for the person (his recent efforts to help a terminal fan mean he should be exempted from the C-word,) but the footballer is clearly not good enough. How he played today, effectively in place of Kagawa, I'll never understand.He's a fecking useless cnut. An abortion of a footballer.
this...it really shows that the defensive winger stance only has so much substance...when he fails to do that well...welpIsn't it funny that a "defensive winger" can't defend properly? What exactly was he doing for the first goal?
He was just back from injury ? Isn't it madness to start him in such a match ?
Same principle also applies to Jones.And bench Kagawa after a good cohesive performance. Moyes' team selection beggars belief at times.
Isn't he supposed to be a set piece specialist? He just boots it with no purpose like a child that's simply happy to get it off the ground.
Bloody useless. But it's nothing anyone, except moyes, didn't already know.
his set pieces yesterday were atrocious.
Same principle also applies to Jones.
Yes, Jones is a great talent and I love him, just throwing out there wasn't helping him at all. Young is a poor player but also he wasn't helped by Moyes when he gave him that start.You mean over Fletcher? Absolutely. Fletch has been consistently good so far, so let's drop him for a defender just back from injury. I want to root for the guy, I really do, but wtf?
For the life of me I cannot figure out why young wasnt dropped to the bench for this match. Then have Januzaj on the left with Kagawa in the middle considering it worked quite well in the last match.
He really is becoming one of the most disliked united footballers there has been...
was extremely overpriced for what he has delivered. Very middle of the road for united...
But Ashley Young does nothing. Literally nothing. That means he's no more physically strong for the purposes of a game of football than Kagawa or Januzaj because it doesn't come into play. His physicality or lack of it is entirely irrelevant because he does nothing on the pitch.My only guess is that Kagawa and Januzaj together just weren't deem physical enough to play both.
Maybe so but I still dont think Ashley offers that much in protecting his fullback. I personally would have preffered to so Adnan on the wing, hes alot more creative from there than he is in the centre at present. Thats not to say he wont be good in the middle long term but at the moment we could have done with Kagawa there as he has alot more experience in playing that position in big games.My only guess is that Kagawa and Januzaj together just weren't deem physical enough to play both.

He was. He hasn't had much luck and as soon as his confidence was built up, injury knocks him back to square one again. To me, it seems like Young isn't using the full range of his talents and is keeping things simple, perhaps to avoid another injury. He doesn't have the physique of a Valencia or the tricks and balance of Januzaj but he is a skillful orthodox winger that is woefully lacking in self-belief. He's not a bad player.Credit where its due - he was impressive in a couple of games before his injury and scored a couple of goals...he's tried but he simply isn't good enough
he's not Manchester United quality though and his corners were dire yesterday
Its hard to believe how poor all our wingers have been the last 18 months - have any of them strung together 5-10 performances in a row where you could say they made an impact or played well consistently?
he's not a bad player but even when given a run of games he doesnt really impress all that much. i did feel for him though yesterday. Being thrown into a game when you're not fully match fit is a pretty big gamble. Looks great when it pays off but when it doesntHe was.

I beg to differ on that, but I agree with the rest of your post.He was. He hasn't had much luck and as soon as his confidence was built up, injury knocks him back to square one again.
