Wish he had been playing under a better manager while with us. Showed at West Ham and Spurs what kind of player we missed out on. Not that he was terrible for us, but he under the right manager he could have been way better.

Really? I just think he was overrated.

Not sure. Reckon hes going to go down the "hard graft" Greame Souness route, rather than actually trying learn the game.

 

Don't mind him as a blerk though.

Tireless, I will give him that, and certainly became more positionally aware with age but he was never a great technician of the ball.

 

Give me a Longstaff type all day.

Was West Ham player of the year two years in a row, was in contention to get it the season they were relegated too and was in the England squad. Was Tottenham player of the year first season for them. Looked like he was playing more creatively for the other sides than us in addition to the work rate he had. As alluded to above, it was a lot of spinaroonies and sideway passes I rarely saw of him afterwards.

Parker is one of the most overrated players I've ever seen tbh.  Great professional but quality wise very limited after Charlton.

Aye those irritating pivots were mainly down to the fact he was playing in a shit team where most players either weren’t good enough to find space or didn’t actually want the ball at all.  Instead of playing it back or just lobbing it forward he wanted to keep hold of it to try and do something.  I think i’ve said it before on here but for me, he was one of the better players in a really poor side.

Just had a look on red cafe and it seems most of them want him out now.

 

Aye its hilarious, I didn't realise one of the first things Solskjaer did when he got the job was give Phil Jones a new 4 year contract with the option of another year.

1. Redcafe is ridiculous and shouldn't be used for a basis as to how Man United fans think.

 

2. Ole has nothing to do with the contracts, and that's the major problem at Manchester United. Ed Woodward needs to fuck off back to the financial side of things and bring in an experienced director of football to work with the manager and make the footballing decisions.

Hope you are right, the longer it takes for the fans to turn on him the better.
