You could put him in a 100m sprint for an Olympic Gold, and he still wouldn't break a jog.
Scott McTominay is the laziest footballer we've ever had

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.
He would just hide behind the guy in the next lane.
I don’t think he’s lazy. He’s just not very good. Most of his running is him trying to recover the ball he lost.
His second touch is always a tackle.

At least he put his collar down. Clown. His second touch is a tackle.
He doesn't run though. He's always jogging
He really needs to come off. He’s gonna get sent off otherwise.
Not sure about that. I would not call him a footballer
He's worse than cow shit and horse shit put together. Simple as. Absolute League 1 level and he's stealing a fecking living. Get him fecking sold to Preston, the ugly cnut.
Technically, I can't remember a worse midfielder for us. He would be nowhere near the first team without that growth spurt. He's not good enough to play mdifield for Scotland ffs!.
Look at him for that goal 
He's not accelerated once during his little stroll back

Cheap man's Fellaini
No, he’s just jogging towards his own goal and not actually making any effort to win the ball back if he’s not close enough to foul.
He’s fecking shit.
That yellow he received was literally because of his stupidity in overrunning the ball and then lunging recklessly into the tackle.
Fellaini had his uses and was very vital in some matches, even important ones for cups. Scott McTominay is a nothing footballer, I doubt even a relegation side would take him.
He’s not lazy. He’s just not very good. We have to drop the nostalgia act of playing our young una’ and purchase real quality.
Yeah but apparently he is a good player cos four different managers have continued to select him and according to some on here can get into the squads of Liverpool and City.
Sancho is worse.
What makes you say he's not lazy? When have you actually seen him break his balls on either side of the pitch to win the ball back, or drive it forward?
People who defended him during the off-season need to stop talking about football because they are clueless.
Fixed.
I’m tired of the guys here constantly making excuses for him too. Years arguing against what is fecking staring everyone in the face. A Championship player playing weekly for us, not as an emergency for one season either, but year after year.
He's absolutely fecking dogshit
Laziness is literally the one thing he isn't. You could have chosen anything else.

I’d rather we start Zidane. At least he has basic playmaking skills.
Dunno about lazy but he's perhaps the worst regular starter we've had in the past four decades
He and Shaw are main reasons it's so difficult for us to build from the back.
Always fail to run to show up for the ball when CBs have possession. Just slowly jogging

Horrible insult to the big man. McT's not fit to shine his shoes.
I can't stand another season of Mctominay.
I'd start a 50 year old Zinedine
Someone earlier said that there was no evidence of McTom going hiding in games. Hope they are watching the game today because this is what this trash midfielder always does.
Hes a joke.
ETH is quite daft playing him in my opinion. Hes so shit and its so obvious.

Championship player. He’s garbage
He has no business being anywhere near the starting XI. It is an utter crime when he starts for us.
He's just a terrible, terrible football player. Should be nowhere near our squad.
He isn't premiership level let alone top 6 level.
Unbelievable that he is still starting games for United.
He wouldn't start for any other team in the league, so why does he start for United?

Rashford is both lazier and just as shit
You’re not allowed to call him lazy OP, despite multiple examples across multiple seasons.
How does he play let alone start for United?
Genuinely though is there anyone better in the squad? My guess is not. That's more of the problem.
