Pata Posted December 28, 2024 Share Posted December 28, 2024 15 minutes ago, Sibierski said: Why do people think dropping Rashford is some masterstroke? He's just the latest string of players that's been made a scapegoat. He's been poor for ages outside that one season which got him the new deal but has still been a mainstay as a starter under every manager. I think it's clearly a positive sign that Amorim doesn't feel he's obliged to start him due to his mega contract and local kid status but is ready to instantly get rid of him (which won't be easy with that wage).

Stottie Posted December 28, 2024 Share Posted December 28, 2024 1 hour ago, Pata said: And their performances haven’t even been as bad as the results. Understat's expected points has them a smidgen above us. Man U are shooting somewhere between 5 and 7 below xG depending on the model. Bournemouth are massively below, but that's what you'd expect for a team with inexpensive players. Here's hoping the reversion to the mean is not tomorrow. All I'll say is that we should be going into it with a lot of confidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All people say is “Because his attitude stinks / performances crap”. Like, so are 90% of rest of the team? Yet some experienced guys such as Martinez get a free pass for a stinky performance after stinky performance. Get the reason to probably wanting to move him on as he’s getting to last window to get a fee and Garnacho is the future, but the way the fans are lapping up the Amorim stance is weird. Been the same for many many more players before Rashford when a manager has taken a stance and nothing has changed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
