United thread 2018/19

All about chelsea being shit for me scum were well drilled and did enough.

Ole Gunnar Solskjær has denied Alexis Sánchez is past his best, saying that once the Chilean forward scores it will be like squeezing a “bottle of ketchup” and his best form will be released.

Fucking LOL!

 

[Mr.Feeny]

I used to say Pogba was one of the best midfielders in the world playing for the wrong manager and got shot down on here many times. He would have been absolutely bonkers for us, brilliant player.

He and Martial under Guardiola would look even better. All Solskjaer has done is let the shackles loose. But he's not really a top class offensive coach.
With good movement around them and good passing patterns (as is the case with City), each would look a level higher.

 

[Mr.Feeny]

His form since Jose's departure is incredible tbf.

To your point and Armaan's point, it has picked up but that was him with Juventus as well, and with France.
He has played under Conte and looked class, played under Alegri and looked class, played under Deachamps and looked class, And now is doing the same thing under an unproven coach in Solskjaer. He has always been at that level and the anomaly was Mourinho who somehow managed to make everyone look worse.

I still think Pogba would look better under Pep. He'd be even more effective, by a distance.

 

[Ancient Citizen]

I disagree, he's nowhere consistent enough to be brilliant or world class.

And I agree with you, for the reasons you state, who, in their right minds, would take him over De Bruyne? Or
any of about three City players, not counting other players better imo, from other teams.
The Rags have got form for pronouncing one of their own as the best ever, this Pogba has flashes of good play,
on occasion very good, but it is only on occasion, and almost always against inferior opposition, he's only good with
the ball, totally crap without it, too lazy and listless, plus if they go a couple behind, he completely throws his hand in.

Having watched the match last night the first time I have seen a full 90minutes this season and listening to the commentary, I thought I was watching one of the great utd sides . But than I remembered that I watched us play arsenal and Chelsea the other week and remembered what a truly great side we have here at City.
Last night was like two mid table teams trying to play football, both sides had a first poor touch and than would take one touch to many played at a slow pace. But going by the commentary I was watching a great utd side.
Do they watch City we are light years ahead of any team the premiership, I feel so lucky to be watching us .....

Tbf strachan on Talksport commentary said what last night showed was how far ahead we were of both.

I think the derby is our hardest remaining fixture though.

Fair play to those Rag wankers, they were brilliant in that away end last night. Notice the huge majority of their travelling support is lads between the ages 25-45? I always notice that with Everton and Newcastle’s support too. Much younger travelling away ends than we have.

 

[TheThirdDeano]

Wouldn’t take Pogba over a single one of our players.

Wrong attitude and a walking PR Stunt.
Performs well in 2 games a season and people start jacking off over him again. Crazy what you can do with media influence isn’t it?

The TV cameras spent more time watching them than the game.
Must have seen that twat in the snot and custard top about 12 times
