  1. Kobbie Mainoo | 2024/25 Performances

    To be fair to Mainoo, none of our midfielders are well rounded players. Ugarte/Collyer needs someone with passing ability next to them. Bruno/Mount is a #10, and needs 2 players behind them Mainoo is a ball carrying #8, who needs a #6 beside him with some passing ability So the "find xyz...
  2. Manuel Ugarte | 2024/25 Performances

    Yeah, in terms of progressing the ball, or in terms of keeping the attack alive, he is. His one goal the other day doesnt negate any of that. We have 2 10s/inside forwards now, not just one. Bruno has been "crap" because he's being asked to play 20 yards deeper because we have no one in...
  3. Manuel Ugarte | 2024/25 Performances

    Our strikers are useless, everybody knows that already. We have one good #10(Bruno), and we are moving him away from where he's best(closer to goal), because we need a playmaker deep because Ugarte is dogshit on the ball. Its not about him being a bad player. Its about the net negative impact...
  4. What do we still need? Aka The never ending story

    I agree. Nobody would be linking us to fecking Quenda if Amorim wasnt our manager. He's not a proper winger either, so if we ditch our 3 atb, he would become a misfit. Bad bad signing Would much rather take a PL player like Kerkez/Ait-Nouri/Robinson.
  5. Mason Mount | 2024/25 Performances

    The frustating part is, there were lots of people then(and even people now) who would swear that the signing made 100% sense. People would rather do insane mental gymnastics to fit a transfer target into our team, than admit that a signing just doesnt make sense. Its happening right now too...
  6. Ruben Amorim - Manchester United Head Coach

    We've barely been able to get right profiles/players the last few years. Now we have to get the right profiles/players and make sure they fit into a back 3 AND back 4 formation? Yeah, I aint feeling too condfident.
  7. Marcus Rashford | 2024/25 Performances | loan to Villa

    I'd pass it too if I was playing alongside Watkins and Rogers, instead of Hojlund and Zirkzee.
  8. Amorim's Rebuild

    Ideally yes. But we also need to address CF, CM, #10 and WB roles too. Maybe even GK. CB falls way down the pecking order. Maybe sign an older LCB on cheap/free.
  9. Amorim's Rebuild

    Last summer we bought 2 CBs. For a combined 100M. Apart from that we already have Martinez, Maguire. We also have options like Maz, and Shaw who can play there. Going for another expensive CB means we fecked up somewhere.
  10. Amorim's Rebuild

    This is delusion, its one of our weakest positions. Our only players there right now is Dorgu, thats it. I dont count Dalot as an option there, he is abysmal there. And Dorgu is young and learning, we saw that yesterday. We should not pin all our hopes on him. He doesnt look ready to me. And...
  11. Amorim's Rebuild

    Yoro will get enough minutes, but at this moment Maz, MDL and Martinez are above him in the pecking order for me. Mostly because of his age. I dont agree Quenda is a "different level of talent". He's doing it in the Portuguese league. Kerkez plays in the PL, its a different much more intense...
  12. Amorim's Rebuild

    My picks : CM : Stiller(50M) LWB : Kerkez(50M) AMF : Cunha(60M) CF : Gyokeres(60M) Total spend : 220M We'll probably need to sell a few players to fund this Rashford - 30M Sancho - 25M Antony - 30M Hojlund - 30M Malacia - 5M Total : 120M Net spend : ~100M
  13. Amorim's Rebuild

    Sure we can. You need squad players. We paid 40M for a backup striker. We paid 55M for effectively a Bruno backup. Also idc how much we spent. I dont think Dorgu is good enough to be starting quality for a top 4 team. Yoro will probably play because Martinez is injury prone. Looking at that...
  14. Amorim's Rebuild

    Dorgu is a squad player imo. Leon is a kid, I wouldnt hedge bets on him. We need a proper LWB.
