People saying sell him.. sweet christ, come on.. Hes a young raw player with tonnes of potential. Has shown what he is capable of.

he needs guidance on his workrate, decision making and attitude. If he knuckles down and properly works on them he could be a hell of a player.

I will say though, if he thinks he's already the finished product, and decides he's not arsed with working on any of them, then yeah, thats when we get serious and think about moving him on.

His attitude def seems to be an increasing problem, someone in that dressing room needs to have him by the scruff of the neck reminding him his responsibilities, but unfortunately I dont think theres many in there would do that.

And thats not even mentioning these new rumours about him and brother being the recent leaks
He thinks he's way better than he is.
 
He deserves a couple more seasons of development and steady game time. Rashford will leave most likely, we will need him to step up. I'd bring in Cunha or Kvara as one of the 10s. Both would be great.
 
:lol:

Glad i made you guys itch!
I dont support United for its fan base and i never ever will. its vile as seen with is social meda bullying of Maguire and Rashford even if the need to leave. With the players its like a drug i cannot stop now taking because im so addicted to it but if i knew about the side effects like its disgusting fans then id support another club for sure. Just a drug now that cant be stopped just as the other fans constantly bully our players.

@Lyng

I support all United players and have never bullied anyone. I always wish Hojlund proves me wrong but he doesnt. Especially when players that cost us 70 million pounds to score or play well against bromo, i just want to get our money back Just as people wanted to get money back on Sancho & Antony asap! Garnacho is much a better prospect than Hojlund and had much more influential moments over Hojlund scoring against Bromo or newport county or Brentford imo.

Theres like 20 people off the top of my head that dont see it with Hojlund and like 3 who constantly support him no matter what.

....or Bayern Munich....
By the way I am not one who wants rid of Garnacho. I am simply pointing out your double standards.

His potential has been massively overblown by large portions of the fan base because he was given more match time than he ever deserved. Antony and Sancho flaming out so spectacularly left a huge vacuum in the squad, Rashford's inconsistency compounded this. At a properly run club, Garnacho gets integrated slowly, having to compete with actual premier league caliber wingers for a place. In an alternate timeline he most likely doesn't make enough of an impression and gets moved along for a nominal fee. No ill will meant toward him. But players of his caliber have been shipped off every year since time immemorial. It just feels different because of a few flashy goals and the ridiculous circumstances that enabled him to become a quasi-starter.
 
Garnacho whilst playing as a forward in comparison to Amad has better interceptions and blocking stats.

Amad has better tackling, heading & clearence stats than Garnacho but to me this is more due to him having a new position deep in game as a wing back; especially things like clearences and heading.

Ive said it many times but Garnacho as a wing back needs to be tried out.

2 out of 5 stats are defensively better to Amad whilst Amad has been the most defensively positioned to elevate his heading and clearence stats.
 
Despite his lack of decision-making and finishing, he is often our most threatful player. And in contrast to Hojlund or Rashford he at least gets into scoring positions regularly. Only problem is that he carries way too much responsibility on his shoulders for a 20 year old. He should be more of a rotation player who is still being introduced more and more to the team. No reason for hate though.

To me, that would be Amad. The feeling I get with Garnacho this year is that he is trying, but nothing comes out of it, and expectations are low, as he is not in a good moment.

Where with Amad, everytime he has the ball, you are hoping that something will happen.

I agree there's no reason for hate. I just disagree with the first part.

Amad is by far our most threatening player, and he's a wingback.

It depends what you mean by threatening. Garnacho gets into goal scoring positions more frequently than Amad and is a better finisher (and that was the case when they were both playing the same position). Amad is a better player currently though and more likely to create something.

Spot on really. He should be an exciting addition and not our first choice player.

He gets into great positions and does muck them up often (the Hojlund goal I couldn’t believe how bad his touch was).

Glad we have him though, think he will become a good player for us.

I don’t agree that Garnacho is definitely a better finisher.

Garnacho is not a good finisher at all. He gets into a lot of good positions but his decision making, ball control, and end product are really poor. In a better team, he wouldn’t be progressing past impact sub but because we’re shit he’s getting a lot of minutes. And in that time, unfortunately none of the things I listed have improved.

He has been so far for us - it’s been a weakness this season for Amad. Sure, might not prove to be the case long-term but currently if a chance was to fall to one of them I’d want it to be Garnacho.

Agree to disagree. Amad shows far more composure in front of goal, for me.

Garnacho has better instincts to get into those goal scoring positions right now is probably the best description. I think if you gave both 10 clear cut chances Amad probably comes out on top in pure finishing ability, but as we've seen in a more extreme version with Hojlund, there's absolutely a vital skill in being able to constantly pop up to get those chances. It's one of Garnacho's best attributes honestly because it keeps him relatively productive even while playing horrid.
 
Hes already done quite well for us, turning just 20 this summer. Even if he has one or two seasons of slow develoopment, he can just shoot up at 22, 23 once he gets stronger and more mature. Important thing is to see if he can fight for every ball, and the great things come. He should look at Amad and try to compete with him. already has a slight edge over Rashford but shouldnt get complacent. Amorim looks like a person young players like.

I agree to an extent. Amad has yet to have anywhere near the opportunities in his favoured role compared with Garnacho. I wouldn’t be surprised if he improved a lot in this area if given consistent starts in an attacking role.
 
Sadly, Garnacho's decision making continues to disappoint. Its starting to be a concern.

At a basic level, he thrives in wide areas where he can stand up a full back and this sytem does not really allow for that. If he cannot adapt then there are question marks over his future.
 


A simple square ball to Amad here is an easier chance to score not the pass he made.

He is so average.

I'm not going to be too critical on these types of chances. Amad and Hojlund did it themselves too in the same game. Yes they deserve criticism too but at least the intention is right.

I'll be more worried about his all around general play and decision making. There are probably only 1-2 must start players in the team and the others like Garnacho need to be in constant rotation to fine tune their game.
 
There’s been leaks before Garnacho was even in the first team squad.
 
While obvious BS, Granacho has been accused of being the dressing room leaker


Who even is the guy alleging this? I'm not familiar with the account, but I'm dubious and wouldn't be surprised if this is just attention seeking.
 
He’s simply not a good passer. It’s been discussed in here but his general passing ability/vision/IQ is poor.
I am thinking but his pass to amad in the fa cup match on that last minute counter winner V Liverpool wasn't a great pass either.
It wasn't the worst pass today at least
 
The ball to Antony isn't poorly executed and isn't a terrible choice there.

Amad was probably a slightly better option but not the end of the world.

I don't mind him choosing the slightly lesser option in moments like that. It's when he doesn't pass at all and ruins attacks by being selfish that is the main problem.

Clowns with managers name as twitter handle dissecting every move to shit on young player ruined it, cnuts like them are the problem.

This twitter handle is so toxic with baseless allegations too.

There were a bunch of other accounts too which made posts on 'X' on this very thing accusing this Morgan guy and how Garnacho and his brother were behind the leaks and how that guy always posts when Garnacho is starting.

I don't doubt Garnacho isn't behind the leaks as he and his brother are rather active on their socials but then that 'Frank' or Amorimball guy has also been leaking lineups for a while now so not sure why he's not being targeted here.

Obviously this person has never played actual football in his entire life. Okay you have 2 options, sometimes you choose the wrong one. In real time it's hard to find the most optimum option and you don't have the time for thinking through it. He's young, give him time ffs. Still one of our most talented players. These type of decision making comes with experience as much as talent.

He tries too hard, makes things too complicated, and he does all the basics wrong. He needs to go back to basics and focus on doing the small stuff right again instead of trying to score worldies and take on entire teams.
 
I am surprised by how many technical mistakes he makes. However, people forget how young he still is, just had a baby, so things might need to develop a bit more
