Froggy Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Not going to bother reading through the recent posts but I expect: 1. Good posters just praising Ronaldo for the performance. 2. Awful posters saying Ronaldo bailed out Ole and pretending they're happy as it keeps Ole in the job longer, as if the Man United are any relevance at all to Newcastle. There'll be at least one. All that can be said is what a bloody player. Special. Would have taken a draw away in Italy under any manager in our history by the way, and would have certainly taken being in this position in the group with two games left and a Young Boys game at home to qualify. Still trust the club to make the right decision. City on Saturday will be tense as fuck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just obviously far, far too good to not start, but a better team would be using him less and reaping all the rewards imo Why is Fernandes' influence reduced/Sancho not getting a look in when they play entirely different positions to Ronaldo? Not being arsey, not seen loads of ManU this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a uneducated, incorrect assumption that is thrown around with no basis whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's turned 21 this year and just moved from another league. I would call for patience. Disgusting money yes, English premium and all that, but give the kid a chance. He'll get tons of opportunities in this team. FWIW Greenwood very, very rarely played through the middle as well, and all of his best performances came from the right. The players missing out on minutes because of Ronaldo are Martial (who's career is all but over at us) and Cavani (gone in the summer). The 5-3-2 will see Cavani more involved mind.

It's probably a realistic signing in your first window under the Saudis. You can take Maguire for a fiver too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not being arsey, not seen loads of ManU this season. Fernandes doesn't seem as prominent as I've seen him before, but admittedly that wasn't loads and yeah looking at his goals and assists I'm probably wrong on that one. Sancho just isn't really playing, the front 3 he's in now is nothing like the one he thrived in at Dortmund and doesn't seem set up to work in the same way. Seems a bit weird when they apparently chased him for 3 years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
