Guest Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 I'd have rather kept Danny Guthrie tbh. I'll give this lad a chance but I've seen nothing in his game so far than "make easy 5 yards pass". You say that as if we had a choice. This is the Danny Guthrie that's been dropped from a side who hasn't won a single match? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Evra and Vidic were written off by most Man U fans during their first season and look what happened there. Give the lad a chance to settle into the premier league ffs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Still think he should start at RB - that's pretty much the only position where he's looked comfortable so far this season. Playing him there will aid his bedding in process and once he gets settled with the PL, then we can think about playing him in CM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 He's average, just like I said when he was with Ajax. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 To clarify. I'm not writing anybody off, that is such an easy cop out. The fact is we shelled out the majority of our summer spending on a player in a position where we were already very well stocked, at the expense of other, more urgent positions, where a first team player could have made us a stronger team. I remain hopeful that Anita will come good, but we should have never gone for him if it meant we couldn't go for other players we were after..

You say that as if we had a choice. This is the Danny Guthrie that's been dropped from a side who hasn't won a single match? Because their manager wants them to play a long ball game. Not his fault he's not that type of player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBoo Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Guthrie had an up and down NUFC career but one thing he did have was a bit of attacking nous from central midfield. Most of our central midfielders are defensive minded or just roundheads like Gosling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 I see Anita as a Modric style player, will keep midfield ticking over with short passes but won't get many assists/goals and won't get much credit for his role in the team despite keeping team flowing.

Kanj Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Some stupid comments here. Writing off a young a player who has played very little for us and when he has played the rest around him have not hit their stride either. Get a fucking grip people.

captainhaircut Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 I'd quite like to see him in a tucked in right midfield position. He's shown very good crossing ability, he's quick and we know he could drop in nicely while Santon bombed on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Blatantly struggling and will do until he grows back the Davids style dreads. Guthrie comparisons are unfair Anita is a defensive midfielder that sits in front of the back four and tidys up. Guthrie was a deep lying playmaker or attacking midfielder. I'm bot worried about Anita, I think he will be important for in the future. We desperately need another classy playmaker though, either to move Ben Arfa centrally and bring in a winger or to offer us more through the middle.
