Our worst player and that’s saying something.
At this rate, I'd just ask Scholes to just play again. He was better playing in his late 30's, I seriously doubt he is any worse going into his late 40's. Just get him some toes to suck on and bring him back.I'd start a 50 year old Zinedine
He's not good enough in any way. One of the my biggest gripes with McTomiany is that he is an absolute coward on the field - always hiding from the ball or looking for ways so that a teammate doesn't look at him and pass him the ball. That trait is the worst one you can have in a midfielder - a midfielder is probably the most important position on the field, he needs the ball. He runs the team. And McTominay is the complete opposite of what a midfielder should be.Not near good enough technically. He has to take about 20 touches of the ball before he can pass.
erikson was able to make one touch passes.
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.

Hahaha try Luke Shaw.
That entire sequence until his yellow card was so obvious. Everyone in the stadium knew it was going to go to him, except him apparently.
You talking about the Ericksen header that he got caught on his heels on and had to yank the Brighton defender back for? I was FUMING at that. Ericksen even gave him a little look before playing that header, and the lazy fecker still got caught ball-watching. Unbelievable. Malacia can't come into this side quick enough for me.

he isn't lazy.
he is simply a shit player, even if he put in a shift and ran his socks off, it won't amount to much.
Cheap man's Fellaini
Then why doesn't he put a shift in?
It's a genuine insult for Fellaini.
Hannibal, Garner and Zidane all say hello! All 3 offer far more than Mctominay.I think people need to realize that it will take more than one summer to rebuild our team. You can't simply replace everybody at the same time. So we will see more McT, Fred, Rashford, Dalot, Shaw. Unless we get FDJ it's almost guaranteed 5/6th place. Yes, ETH will make a difference but it will take more than one season.
Let's be honest here - will Klopp or Pep start McT in their midfield? Never. Will they play Fred? Probably not. We do and why? There is nobody. Simple as that. So relax and keep dreaming.
TBF most do.It's hard to fathom why some United fans refuse to acknowledge how poor he is in Midfield.
TBF most do.
A lot of the comments on him are a bit juvenile on here sometimes but like Keane said we're going nowhere with him starting in our midfield. Brighton took the ball off him on the first goal like taking candy from a baby.
He regularly is lazy though. When the opposition get in behind him he almost always does nothing but slowly jog back, letting all the opposition runners get further into space and doesn't try to help out defensively at all.Such a weird phenomenon that these days every footballer who is playing badly has to also be branded lazy.
It's not enough to think they're a bad player, now we have to also explain it as some kind of moral failing so we can justify loathing them
