As a right winger, there is no point playing him. He is so much better as LW. Ole should have changed much earlier, Pogba as a LW wasn't a threat at all to take on TAA.
+4I am so annoyed with his performance. This big shot player has zero ball control and awareness! And he literally walks about like he is the king! Please. Sign Sancho so this one gets a kick up the ass!
We were never going to start Greenwood twice in two days though.Made a mess of it putting him on the right, should’ve put him on the left with Greenwood on the other side from the start.
Perhaps not no, maybe in hindsight we should’ve tried to get it so they’re both ready for tonight but in fairness this schedule has been impossible.We were never going to start Greenwood twice in two days though.
It's been steadily getting worse the past two years. Today was shocking thoughJust me or his work rate especially for the defending/pressing is awful this year?
I remember it was not that bad last year. Even Greenwood seems to work harder.
Just watched Rios 'Between the Lines' with Rooney and Rashford. Not sure when this was recorded but something about Rashford just seems 'off', he doesn't come across as a young guy loving his job or enjoying life. A particular point at 17:30 he talks about how he gets angry at himself if he failed to make a pass so probably trying too hard after the smallest of mistakes. Hopefully just needs a break and is back to his best next season.
Frustrating to say the least. If this kind of form continued into the first half of next season then I'd be concerned. Still a kid though so time on his side.He must be tearing himself apart evert game then if he really gets angry.
He makes so many bad decisions in promising situations that get over looked.
There is nothing better on the bench, play good / play bad / play shit, hes not going to get dropped. Sign Sancho to at least give him a kick up the arse. The hardest part of his game is making good decisions and he is shocking at making good decisions.
Rashford in numerous games has had TAA, yet, in this game we play him RF, where he's never the same player. Sometimes the decisions by Ole leaves me a bit, what?
Look, yes, he doesn't play great on the right, but if he's truly a great player the difference between playing on the right or the left shouldn't be the difference between abysmal and excellent. Great players find a way to still have decent games in unfamiliar positions. It shouldn't be that the drop-off is massive. Even Daniel James, for all his limitations doesn't play substantially worse on the right than the left, so why should Marcus?
I agree mate. That would make most logical sense to me.Can't disagree with this one bit. Baffling.
This forum is convinced Pogba is the answer though on the left. Couldn't be more wrong. Because it worked Vs a suspect Roma team it's now the answer. Pogba is a CM. France don't play him as an unorthodox winger.
Rashford left. Greenwood right. Pogba in middle. Drop either Fred or Mctomminay.
Agree with all you are saying. Despite the Hyperbole, I think Ole has found Pogba position and thats in a 4-3-3. Play that against Liverpool and it' suicide. Despite the other match day thread, 4-3-3 is not wingers and Pogba was bang average today.He's made 36 good decisions this season.
He's out best LW by far. This Pogba fad lasted three games. Absymal tonight and not a threat at all. Also cost us a goal with two mistakes in 15 seconds.
Pogba should be playing in the middle and Rashford wide left. The end.
