In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
Can we see it?
Wednesday works, just noticed I have court on Tuesday.
Anyone fancy knocking me up a simple graphic. Sharemytactics still hates me
I can do it
Sound, same formation that is in my write up then mate, cheers.
This was the plan/blueprint:
ended up with this:
Wanted to build around Prosinecki and Savicevic for ages but never got a chance so this sheep draft was perfect, specially as i see Carrick as perfect partner for Prosinecki in the middle so had 3 locked picks from the start that i can pretty much pick after everyone finished their teams though i was fully aware as you know that im facing a R1 exit(even managed to drop earlier).
Before we start i made some lazy ass shortlist so completely ignored i can easily switch sides for both Prosinecki and Savicevic which would open different players and of course, as i didnt you see Zanetti and Cafu going straight down the drain while GOAT left wingbacks and defensive rightbacks survive for the next round or two...
When's the first game?
Am waiting for Boris DeLa Fora, Boris De La Fora... Na na na na
@Šjor Bepo that fits Prosinecki well, but don't think it's best fit for Savicevic. He's played there some, but he really doesn't have to workrate to make things happen.
@Šjor Bepo attack and midfield turned out better than the blueprint.
Dzajic / Kocsis link is tasty.
Dzajic / Kocsis link is tasty.
Just stick him in a free role on the right and he'll be ok.
I'll try to wrap up my write up tomorrow and we can play Tue/Wed.
Dzajic is a myth, unbelievable.
The rest of it bepo
The rest of it bepo
its exactly where he played for Zvezda so its exactly where he played at his peak....
some prick blocked CziborDzajic is a myth, unbelievable.
The rest of it bepo
had to upgrade it given the fact i didnt get top of the line defenders....
Lads, please tag me on the day of your game and I should be able to set the thread up soon.
Please finish all games by Friday.
Please finish all games by Friday.
I thought he was an excellent fit.
I am not a fan of Kocsis as a lone striker but with Savicevic there, even he looks perfectly fine.
I haven't watched enough of Prosinecki though. Did anyone pick him in the Virgin draft? I am assuming he hasn't won a draft.
harms picked him
@BorisDeLeFora what's the plan? My techno midgets are good to go for 2 or 3 nights, but after that some malfunction comes out.
Where would you put him?
I won't be around much at all on Wednesday. Friday would be good and Thursday okay too if either of those work for you?
Can you elaborate on that? The second sentence doesn't make much sense to me at the moment.
@Jim Beam pick a day, any suits. Am doing my write up now
When you finish, just send it and we can start.
Were you planning with Maldini, Baresi, Nesta, and Cafu on first round
?tbf that was wishful thinking but yeah i hoped to get something close to that and id probably would if i didnt went Maldini first cause of lazy planning. Reckon something like Scirea, Facchetti, Bergomi + some stopper(maybe even Costacurta as he survived long) would be pretty "easy" to asseamble.Were you planning with Maldini, Baresi, Nesta, and Cafu on first round
Yeh. That's more doable. Although the timing and order have to be perfect.

didnt they both played their best football in a back 4? Cant say i watched Scirea that much but Kaiser i watched a lot and he is perfectly in his element playing in a back 4.
I just think Kaiser is a midfielder, more than a CB. He's just good on defending. But imho, why restrict him there doing a mere "defending"? It's ok against team with no great attack, so he can leave his post to venture forward. But otherwise, ..
tbf that opens up the whole debate, im 101% sure if he played in a modern game he would spent 90% of his career as a midfielder but sadly that wasnt the case so how should he be rated?
Id say as a midfielder he is probably a 8/10 player based on performances in that role, switch him to the defender role he is as clear 10 as you can get but if he played the modern game with players generally being much smarter and on closer to his level of understanding the game he would be a 10 in mids too no question.
Thing is, where do we draw the line between what if and what actually happened.
Also he was never really restricted, not even when he was facing one of the best offensive teams ever lead by a tier 1 GOAT completely in his element.
@BorisDeLeFora send it to @harms too
done
Are you playing Bale?
I've always had him as a talented player who needs a bit of carrying. Moment of genius but lacked genuine workrate (something not uncommon amongst the ball wizards). Dominant left foot, so tends to cut in rather than provide width stretching defense. A #10 or an IR would suit him best.
Yeh. He didn't venture forward that much against Netherland (or did he?), and played more like a DLP there from the back. So yeh. Now I don't know how to asses him.
It's the case when I watched Vasovic at Ajax too, when I was looking at his partner, Hulshoff. The amount of time he ventured forward, I thought he was a midfielder.
I don't think it's possible with back four. But there were cases when it could work. So it's just my understanding isn't that high then.
