Did he really say that about Schneiderlin or they missunderstood him?
He played two games before and after the New Year and that's about it, his last game before that was more than 20 days earlier.
Surprising he is in the 'red zone' when he seems to have played less games than others.
No it's the new "I'm pulling an excuse from my backside because I'm not going to assume my decisions".
Correct and also "I forgot Schneiderlin plays for us" having only played 2 matches in the past 5 weeks
Wasn't his stats last year really great? In terms of minutes played, distance covered etc... I highly doubt he's a man who frequently finds himself in the red zone. Physically he's probably one of the very best in the club.
Another player LVG is seemingly clueless about and has no idea how he can use him in his team.
Yep.
We should be using him and Bastian similar to how we used Carrick and Fletcher. Morgan is similar to Fletch.
Newcastle 3:3 Man Utd
He needs to step up and be more dominant. Newcastle are awful, yet our midfield is struggling at times. You could see that he doesn't have the calming presence of Carrick and BFS in front of the defense. Everyone gets a bit panicky around our box today and the defenders obviously feel the need step out more than they usually do. Still, I'm not expecting that from him. He could and should make up for it with his tenacity and energy but he's not showing any of that today.
He's been completely invisible... if anything Fellaini is having to do far more in our midfield then Marouane Fellaini should ever be expected to do.
It's harder for him since Schweini's not playing there with him.
True. Morgan has been poor so far.
No idea why he isn't playing today.
lol
lol
Needs someone next to him to do the pretty stuff. Fellaini isn't that person.
I think he was still in the red zone. Shite.
Really shit. He's half a midfielder basically... and when he's not next to anyone who can make up for his lack of other half (note: Fellaini isn't that person) he looks completely clueless / nigh on invisible.
Did not look like himself at all.
He isn't the player who turned in excellent performances for Southampton. Maybe the philosophy man has something to do with it but he really has been off form for us.
Did nothing. Newcastle just went through the CM like it didn't exist.
I'd give him a zero in all honesty if I could.

He can't play in a midfield two.
Oh this is exclusively our version of Morgan that I'm talking about... the player I wanted us to buy for Southampton is yet to move to us in my opinion.
I also thought he could have done better to block their third... criminally slow to react.
Tbf to him, Fellaini is the worst midfield partner he can ask for.
Didn't notice he was playing
I was just about to type that. I honestly struggle to remember what he was like at Southampton now. I remember he was really good but after so many mediocre performances I've seen of him, it's hard for me to imagine him being a stand-out player in a game.
Okay, so alot of people on the caf had us convinced he is an amazing midfielder and can even play a bit, pretty much allround stuff and one of the best midfielders in the prem they assured us...
wtf is the shit he is serving up. He has been nothing more than average.

Another player whose position and role in the team are still undefined. Is he going to play as a deep-lying midfielder/anchorman or is he the workhorse midfielder who presses high up the pitch?
So what's the fuss with this guy then? Yet to see a performance above 5/10 I'll be honest.
He wasn't better than Fellaini.
He's made for a midfield 3, just not one with Fellaini beside him. Swap Fellaini for Schweini and we're golden.
3-0 Everton wasn't a coincidence. It was the way forward. Can we find that path again please and start following it again already.

No exaggeration, when they had the replay of the penalty given to Newcastle, I was surprised to see Schneiderlin there. That was an hour into the game.
He needs a better player besides him (instead of Fellaini). Next season, someone like Gundogan could bring the best of Schneiderlin. Also, in the near future a young player like Neves to rotate with him would be good.
was worse actually.
I agree, both were shit but at least Fellaini won some battles, Schneiderlin was invisible.
Very poor today. Even defensively too. Has to be more authoritative.
To be fair, I don't think any midfielder can play well with Fellaini in a midfield 2.

I dont think he deserves the hate today, he had good moments and bad as well but people are out of their mind in a game like this tryna blame a first player who they see make a mistake. Calling him worse than fellaini in this game is a joke. Try to put Schnedierlin out of the team and play fellaini there and give it a go other way round and give schneiderlin a proper partner and we are solid again just like we were, fellaini is causing chaos, too slow to be in the right position
He doesn't seem to have the same marauding box to box style he did at Southampton. It was like there's an invisible wall at the final third he wasn't allowed to cross.
I don't think he did badly, he was practally alone against a very physical midfield. Desperately needs a creative cm to partner him.
I think Fellaini was all on his own in midfield.
Schneiderlin was a complete ghost and it's happened a lot this season.
Way too generous. He was against a physical Newcastle midfield and he just went completely missing. At least Fellaini was trying to make his presence felt (and doing a shit job of it) and getting involved in the play (and doing a shit job of it), but he wasn't leaving Schneiderlin isolated at all - they were alongside each other quite often - they were both just too incredibly shit to actually do anything.
If Schneiderlin requires a decent midfielder next to him for him to not be absolutely abject, then that's pretty worrying.
