Sackable offence to start him in the Premier League.
I found humour in Fellaini being a starter for us and now I'm doing for same for Weghorst, a far poorer player.

Oh without doubt. I liked the big afro guy.Comparing him to Fellaini is kinda disrespectful. Fellaini may not be of United quality but he did scored some important goals for us and his chest control is unparallel

Disrespect towards Fellaini always annoys me. A limited player, yes, but as you said he scored some important goals and he always gave it everything. He never strolled around lazily.Comparing him to Fellaini is kinda disrespectful.

Better question would be, has he ever won any header? Considering his height he must be the worst player in history in aerial duels.An absolute waste of a shirt. Offers nothing. I’ve said it before, has he EVER won a header from a corner?
He’s the only 6’6” forward in history who actually gets smaller as he jumps for a header.Better question would be, has he ever won any header? Considering his height he must be the worst player in history in aerial duels.
It would have been pointless to start him as a number 9 because he offers almost nothing there.
But we started him as a number 10 and shunted Bruno to the left for him, again - after all, it worked brilliantly the last time: we only conceded seven.
And then after 45 minutes of nothingness, he still got to come out for the second half. Absolutely baffling. Feels like deliberate sabotage.
It wasn't as tame as their goal though.Had a fairly tame shot that was saved
It was a mediocre shot but ironically I think it was one of his best ones in a United shirt. What a moment.Had a fairly tame shot that was saved and contributed a key pass for Antony's shot that went wide. There was a decent tackle inside our area.
At this stage, I suspect only Ten Hag understands why Weghorst starts matches.
Just end a loan early, what is really the point in having him here?
I refuse to believe Depay could've been any worse, and he was also desperate to come back.
Imagine moving Bruno out of position in order to accommodate Wout Weghorst as a #10. All while Sancho, Sabitzer, Martial & Garnacho sit on the bench. Just let that sink in for a while. Then remember it’s not the first time it’s happened this season. We’re in the twilight zone people.
I can’t even be angry at him anymore. It’s beyond him. It’s like putting a puppy behind the wheel of a car then blaming him when he crashes it rather then blaming the person who thought it was a good idea to put him in that position in the first place.
It does, however, give me some hope that at 30, I might still have a chance of becoming a professional footballer and playing for Manchester United. Because if Wout can, we all can.
It was an experiment that’s failed miserably. Bet he can’t wait for the season to end now, so he can get back to Besiktas and hook up with his other team mates again.
The Glazers didn't give the money for a Joao Felix loan.Should we have just spent the money on Joao Felix?

It's ten Hag's fault to keep playing him. He offers nothing, it's even more criminal to play him at 10 which means moving Bruno and Rashford out of position.
He offers effort and that's about it, he's incredibly weak and surprisingly awful in air for such a tall strong player. He never seems to win any battles and is so slow it hurts transition.
I know we are really short of options specially in the striker position. But Weghorst can't play again he's by far the weakest link in the chain.
