I think its fair to call him a Woodward signing.Do you have any actual evidence that he is a "Woodward signing"?
Evidence, not some stupidity like "Well, he's a big name player that was with us, and Woody wanted to get the fans onside" type BS...
Not a great game but he was the only one in the diamond 4 that used the ball well and seemed to understand the shape, he made a mistake on the penalty but it's fine margins, he should go in the summer as I think it's best for both parties, but he was far from the problem today, people thinking two CM's with dodgy 1st touches and no passing range is the answer is a bigger concern.

He's one of the worst "great" players I can think of. He's still living off of a reputation from years ago at Juventus but without that you're left with an average player who's a liability more often than not. We should've cut our losses long ago.
Would anyone have paid it? Even a year ago, he wasn't worth even half of that if you look at what he contributed to the team over several years.We were quoted 120 million a year ago. It is about 35 million now. Goes down a couple of million with every bad performance.

That's already two years ago, but yes, I reckon we would've got a good fee for him then.I would say if we sold him after the world cup we could have got most of what we paid for him back. We would be doing well to get 40 million now.
Ole really should just drop him ASAP. Against the top teams or away from home you just cannot depend on him.
Complete liability at both ends of the pitch. Should be a bench player moving forward and sold in the summer if a suitable offer comes in.
Tempted to say he's the most overrated player I've ever seen at Man Utd. Guess I just did.
Holding on to the ball so long wouldn't be so bad if you weren't so sloth-like when you have it. Poor decisions, weak mentality. We'll be better off when he fecks off, and so will he in a slower league.
The problem is, if they sack Ole the next guy will try the same all over again and appear justified when doing so. Just get rid.
If Giroud, the Chelsea bench warmer gets called up, Pogba always willMaybe he should've retired from the NT. He wont be called up anyways
I think what says it all, is that we are forced to play two fairly average, but whole hearted players in the position he should excel at.
When you struggle to fit in your supposed top player, it really does seem a time for a change of club is needed.
How was he not the problem?
He gave away yet another fecking penalty.
