To expand on my whinge about the likes of Sancho's performances who rightly got hooked at half time last Thursday against Omonia, a team made out up of journey men who would struggle in the Championship. He was taken off along with Malacia, as he too was having a shocker, because he looked totally disinterested. To scramble a win against opposition like that shows how dire we presently are. A comparison : Sancho v Foden, both the same age and 2 years ago most would have said that they were almost equals in potential. Fast forward and Foden is now scoring goals and making assists, running at defenders, causing havoc, and being one of the first on the team sheet for England. Sancho has regressed to a point where he is not worth a place in our starting 11. Interesting if anyone saw an interview this week between Joe Cole and Paul Scholes. Scholes was asked what was our greatest ever Managers main demands of a player. Scholes, a man of few words said just one "desire" that's how SAF evaluated his players and if he didn't see "desire" he moved them on or left them in the stands. Today as we know some players are just so precious and lacking character, Ali ,Lingard, Pogba you could make a long list. The club is now apparently scrambling to get Ganarcho an extended contract ,to lose him would be a disaster IMO .If you want to see "desire" he epitomizes it and there are others in the youth pipeline waiting for a chance. Lastly Scholes was asked who was the most under rated player he ever played with ? Quick as a flash, Michael Carrick...hear hear Don't forget Foden (and most other City players) had his time out of the City starting XI. If you want a place in their team you need to be in red hot form, and that's the standard we need to get to at United..... I wouldn't write Sancho off just yet, you can guarantee he will be thinking about where he went wrong and looking forward to his next opportunity.

On the positive side of things, at least we created a hatful of chances, but average finishing and a superb display by their goalkeeper kept us at bay. I'd be more worried if we weren't creating the chances in the first place! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand what you are saying , but we are not putting teams away. I know a win is a win , but when it is by just one goal there is a possibility that points will be dropped by one mistake at our end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyF Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Decent performance. If they had a proper striker it could have been a lot more, without needing a lucky Fred deflection to get ahead. Definite improvement though. At this rate they could get top 4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, any player who sits on the bench, right in front of his manager, with an ear ring dangling from his left ear, deserves to remain on the bench - By leaving early, it showed disrespect to the Manager, the fans & his team mates - Very petulant behaviour from a United Legend. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo should of gone in the summer, he might get you a few points but his playing days are numbered. Dropping Maquire was brutal but needed doing and imo it’s a massive shame what has happened to him at old trafford as it wasn’t so long ago the whole country was behind him in the 2018 World Cup that indeed made United spend 80 million on him in the first place. Maybe Ten hag can bring the best out of him yet but it looks like he is doomed now and every single mistake will be jumped on by fans and ex United pundits. Sad thing is he would probably flourish under the guidance of klopp or pep but the chances of him joining either team are pretty much zero after being captain at United so it’s hard to see where he goes from here? Probably be a Leeds/wolves/villa type club I guess There we go... some sensible comments finally! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
