For the record, I'm not actually bitter about HM's move. Just think it's ridiculous how he's the new Franco Baresi purely because he now wears a Man United shirt. I agree. Players get more praise when they move to a big club. Ricardo will give through another excellent season without OTT hype, but when he moves to PSG next summer he will be treated like Jesus & Mohamed rolled into one.

I am fine with possession, but we do need to do something with it! I can remember some warning that we were going to see something similar to Puel's game (possession based albeit with more directness and results) and that a lot of fans would be in for a rude awakening. We lacked width yesterday, Maddison on left is a waste of time and it hurt Chilwell in the process. I'd like to see Barnes and Albrighton starting against Chelsea with Perez behind Vardy. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koke Posted 12 August 2019 Share Posted 12 August 2019 (edited) People forget that Swanses were more than just keeping the ball. They were sensational to watch between 2010-2014. Some truly outstanding football. Rodgers under Swansea were brilliant. And he did that with Dyer, Routledge, Michu and Joe Allen.

On that day I just thought that Chelsea were shit. People keeping banging on about Chelsea being statistically good and unlucky (because of the Lampard Love-in), problem was they weren't actually good! They were good in the same way Norwich were good on Friday. United are still along way off the likes of Man City and Liverpool at present. It a bit irritating what a wankfest all the media are having over Maguire now to be honest, they didn't give a shit when he was here, the spaffing over United is intolerable. The more crap like this goes on the more I hope he gets ripped apart by Man City or Liverpool when they play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Fox Posted 12 August 2019 Share Posted 12 August 2019 The whole Maguire and United media coverage has been absolutely nauseating. I still don’t think we should’ve sold him. Makes us look like fools. We just need an ex player at Spurs and Liverpool to complete the big 6 bum in and ridicule of our club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonezy Posted 12 August 2019 Share Posted 12 August 2019 Maguire did a solid job, but Man Utd had one of those days where everything went their way. Chelsea played some good stuff (well apart from their defense and especially Zouma) and hit the woodwork twice. Maguire has a great personality though and I also noticed how he was first to hug and acknowledge Pogba after both of his assists; he will be a huge plus in their dressing room with his attitude. I am sad that we had to let him go, but he wanted the chance to play for one of the giants, so what can you do. At least we got paid pretty well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Fox Posted 12 August 2019 Share Posted 12 August 2019 (edited) Worst opening day of a season since Bolton at home. We’ve got to endure probably a good 5 or so years for Maguire the warrior and leader at United now. Edited 12 August 2019 by Master Fox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
