Id say playing a key role in his massively unfancied nation reaching a world cup semi final outranks this. He won a league in Belgium, a cup in Holland, played in a European final and got a move to one of the biggest clubs in the world.

Weird post unless you think football is twitter or YouTube

And Kleberson won two regional leagues, a national league and the World Cup before joining United. That went well didn’t it?

A lot of my United supporting fans were saying he's better than Rice at the start of the season.

So we've got McTominay who is better than Rice, Amrabat who is better than Rice and Mainoo who is better than Rice. Well we must be 6 points ahead of Arsenal then right?
 
I'm not defending his mistake today, it's really poor. But how is someone like him able to adapt to this league if he never gets a consistent run of games in midfield?
 
Awful. More often than not, buying a player on the back of good international tournament performances is a poor strategy.

Well he was on the pitch sure but Ounahi looked to have much more quality on the ball despite having a lack of end product and he's playing for Marseille 6th place in France and En Nesyri got a couple of goals to keep them going and he's at 14th in La Liga Sevilla. Both of them were better

A midfielder that offers left back cover.

No really, ETH played him at left back in the past when he had a shortage there and we did the same thing this season

Why not just buy a cheap LB, make the loan we had year long or even just keep Alvaro.

We have literally wasted 9m down the drain.
 
Disastrous signing. Which should have been obvious to anyone making decisons at the club.

One of those players that can look good in a slow league or World Cup, really fancied himself to make the step up but can't. Maybe in an ideal scenario with lots of time to build himself up but right now he can't help us in the short term.

Thing is, he didn't even look that good in a slow league. None of the top Italian sides wanted him
 
The straw that breaks the camels back on ETH this guy is. His signings have been truly awful on the whole.
 
I don’t judge him too much for the error today. Has not been playing a lot and then gets thrown into a game against the best team in the world so this can happen.
Not good enough to be part of our squad in case we have any ambition.

What are you talking about. The poster said catching mbappe is his career highlight. I disagreed. I've no idea what what you're saying has to do with that simple point

It’s not a weird post though is it? You are being weirdly over sensitive about a player that’s bloody shite! It’s a joke, of course he has achieved more than that but when we signed him, quoting “catching Mbappe” was the no.1 thing that was said

I’m assuming you are either a family member or from Morocco but even then he’s actually Dutch so *shrugs

No im neither. It was a lazy post and a bit stupid. I suspect you simply put too much stock in that clip yourself.
 
He's a severe indictment against future transfer proposals and loans coming out of Serie A. The Premier League does NOT allow you to have so much time on the ball and it means you either react quickly or you will feck up.

It's not like he was dominating Serie A either. He was an average player for a mid-table side. That seems to be all it takes to be a United transfer target these days. None of the top clubs in Italy moved for him during his four seasons playing there.

Awful. The highlight of his career is apparently catching Mbappe once, which we can now see was down to Mbappe having the ball and also maybe having a long hard think about what he was gonna do with it

Amrabat was very good in the World Cup throughout. How he’s playing now for United doesn’t change that.

I'm actually amazed how bad ten hag's signings have been.

Its almost a skill to be so consistently poor with picking his choices. Clearly, he cannot envision whether players can transfer their skills or abilities well into our league or not -- even after a season under his belt.
 
With ETH at the helm, I don't think agents will be using the United name/factor to boost their players' transfer prices. If anything, it will scare clubs off the player.

That's the thing. He had a whole season under his belt. And long tournaments. So he knows how fast PL football is, and how fast even lower league teams are. Yet he's suggested a player like Amarabat who he walked past 12 years ago and liked the cut of his jib.

I'm glad INEOS is indicating this is the last time they're building a team for a manager.
