Interestingly, Navas who was so devastating against Shaw in the first half, changed wing in the second half, and didn't even try to outpace Valencia and send crosses.
Think that's because Navas is extremely one-footed imo. Nevertheless, Valencia was fantastic today again.Interestingly, Navas who was so devastating against Shaw in the first half, changed wing in the second half, and didn't even try to outpace Valencia and send crosses.
Another good 6/10 performance, been a very steady performer this season.
He's a freak, we won't have to worry about that for years.We'll struggle to find a good replacement for him.
DID WE EVEN SEE A LEFT FOOTED CROSS?!
Valencia will be comfortably the best right back in the league next season.
He's really impressed me recently, and no one had been a bigger critic of the lad than me. still pretty suspect positioning on occasion but has the pace to recover.
He's started getting some lift on his crosses too! No more shin smashers.
Still one of my favourite things to see at Old Trafford is when an opposition player engages in a test of strength with Valencia... most folk just bounce off the man.
He's made of granite, I remember Rio tweeting in amazement at watching him in the gym "throwing weights around like I threw Torres around".
He didn't have much competition to be fairOur best signing from that summer in 2009 by far
Fractured arm and has had surgery.
