Whatever. Noway has he been better than Rashford for a year. He only started playing well since April. I love Greenwood and most United fans I know do, but that doesn’t mean that people should invent stuff which is not true in order to praise or defend him.He’s one of the top young players in world football at 19 years old and he plays for Utd. If you need any reason at all not to love him you are batshit mental. Fact is he’s been better than Rashford for a year at least and better than Sancho thus far. That’s not over the top, that’s the reality and outside of Ronaldo he’s been our best attacking player this season.
the worst player on the pitch with Dalot today. He should sit on the bench few games.
Definitely not factual. Both had huge parts of last season where they where having stinkers quite frequently although Rashford was contributing with goals and assists. Towards the end Mason picked it up and Rashford continued to be awful but over the course of a year Greenwood wasn’t better than Rashford IMO.He’s one of the top young players in world football at 19 years old and he plays for Utd.

Just banning some of the idiots would be a healthy start!What kind of repercussions are you suggesting? Artillery strike or just strip them naked and chant shame at them through the streets?
He also set Sancho up at the six who promptly slipped on his arse.
Some really weird takes in this thread. You would think this is the Bruno thread.
Nah. Not really, no.the worst player on the pitch with Dalot today. He should sit on the bench few games.
Yes it is. Wow. Greenwood may eventually be great, but he isn't great today. He definitely wasn't great yesterday. It would be nice if someone on the team pointed that out to him, didn't seem to happen during the game.
This was also an incredible pass considering Greenwood was off balance, being tightly marked and had less than a second to make it.
Did he? Perennially offside and offered nothing in the build up. Thinks he needs a rest.
I know he made these two passes, I too watched the match. My take is based on his overall performance, he was a liability to the team off the ball and was one of the reasons we were pressed hard. His pressing is non existent, his defensive contribution is not good. We cant have him and Ronaldo on the pitch. He needs to watch how hard wide attacking players work off the ball, he need to see Salah, Mane, Mahrez and Raheem how much pressing they make if he wants to play as a wide player. Dalot was left alone facing 2 sometimes 3 players and Dalot is not that good to deal with such situations.Created our two best chances of the match. Did Bruno, Pogba or Sancho create any from open play ?
Another ridiculous take.
Greenwood seems to get harshly rated here due to being rated highly in general. Plus it seems that unless he scores a goal, he's apparently played badly. Given Ronaldo is the main goalscorer there's every possibility that the likes of Greenwood may have to be more providers than they earlier were which isn't really his natural game.Created our two best chances of the match.

I also thought that he should have helped Dalot more, especially as Dalot was so shit.Could have helped out with Danjuma but he was decent up the other end, far less selfish this game. Decent performance overall I thought.
Just me or he didn't seem to get along too well with Ronaldo on the pitch?
His body language seems totally different with Cavani.
Yeah, Dalot was getting absolutely rinsed, especially with the fullback pushing up so high, yet when we see the replay, Greenwood would just be stood around half way up the pitch watching. It's possible that was tactical but it wasn't a great look. I thought he was better in attack than against Villa though, I'd say Ole had a word with him about his selfishness in the previous game.I also thought that he should have helped Dalot more, especially as Dalot was so shit.
Greenwood had a good start but his impact has been decent at best. He's still very young and needs to be managed properly

To me it seems like Greenwood wants that goal too much that he forgets about helping the team, defending. Hence he's been very greedy in the box where his decision making has been horrible at times and potentially cost usYeah, Dalot was getting absolutely rinsed, especially with the fullback pushing up so high, yet when we see the replay, Greenwood would just be stood around half way up the pitch watching.

I suppose it's all about finding that balance, at the end of last season he found that balance nicely continuing into the start of this season. It's only 2 games where he's been particularly greedy so far this campaign.To me it seems like Greenwood wants that goal too much that he forgets about helping the team, defending.

Are you counting this one as one of his ‘greedy’ matches?I suppose it's all about finding that balance, at the end of last season he found that balance nicely continuing into the start of this season. It's only 2 games where he's been particularly greedy so far this campaign.
No, I was counting the league cup game against West Ham and the game against Villa.Are you counting this one as one of his ‘greedy’ matches?
People probably have a chip on their shoulder writing him off when he was having a rough patch last season. People would rather Greenwood be shit than admit they were wrong.He’s getting an awful reaction on social media at the moment. There’s so many absolutely stupid Utd fans out there. Tbf judging by the reaction in this thread he clearly isn’t as well liked as you’d expect from a 19 year old Man Utd superstar!
Mason and Cavani trained together for at least 6 months before they clicked.Just me or he didn't seem to get along too well with Ronaldo on the pitch?

I'm pretty sure his dip in form and selfishness is related to the record of teenager scorers.
As soon as he turns 20 he will start focusing in the team instead.
