Anyone with a bit of nous may have noted my comment about rooney debut for united and would not need to wonder or publish stuff like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old man outshone rooney at united. Outshines him in USA has played across some of the world's best teams and pretty much carried Sweden for years and you think rooney was better. Absolute rubbish that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, but you could have seen Rooney's debut when you were 6 yrs old and had no appreciation of football. Hence my comment on your age and lack of appreciation of Rooney in his pomp stand.

Read an article this morning where it was saying this deal will have repoccusions for many teams with players contracts coming up for renewal. They quoted your side and how difficult it will be with the likes of Alderweireld and Dier (currently on 70k I believe) when they see what they have paid Shaw, particularly Alderweireld I would imagine.

Its WAY WAY 2 much money . Got told by a kid that 'worked' at southampton att that shaw was managed by his pop's and he marched into murrys office at the chavs and told him how much he wanted apparently got short shrift hense him signing for utd!! BUT IMO he's the best in the prem at his job atm.. liverpool lad looks the part though defensively i'de still have shaw down in front of him..

It's a very close call between those two but I'd probably agree with you. Ibra's record, and the amount of different teams he helped to the title, is insane. But... I would say Rooney is the better all round / team player, Ibra is the better striker. Contrary to what somebody (maybe you) said... IMO Rooney's best years was when Ronaldo was at United. He was better as part of the main supporting cast rather than having the pressure of being 'the main man'... I'm talking about United btw, not MLS.

Popular Post carmine Posted October 21, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2018 Quite impressed with United in the second half. By far the best i've seen for them so far and reasons to be positive. Cruel to concede a goal so late but probably a fair result over ninety minutes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the chavs looked very decent too....both sides played well and deserved a point each. What I'd do is get Lukaku out of there and play Rashford and Martiaal up front with Sanchez supporting them....Lukaku should still be playing for Everton IMHO.

Exactly playing with Lukaku up front is hindering us, Yes he will score goals if served on a plate. Martial up top with Sanchez and Rashford for me.

Sparkles Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 United second half gave glimpses what most of us know is required go direct and with pace.Taken a while to sink in. Didn't look like a team that was not playing for the manager and more importantly the club. I hope the Daily Mirror journo who said that Mourinho would be sacked after the Newcastle game,win ,lose or draw was still wiping egg off his face. Young did a remarkable job on Hazard ,mostly closed him down and Chelsea don't pose a huge threat without Hazard pulling the strings Shaw also looked more confident than I have ever seen him,new contract hasn't hurt. I hope to see him and Dalot sewing up the full back positions long term.Watch videos of Dalot and you will see his potential. Mata also has had a good game calm and creative. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about Young and Hazard, he did a great job and it affected Chelsea because rather than offloading early, Hazard kept holding on to the ball for too long and slowed down Chelsea's movement. A key part of the game for me and yes, Shaw is really back to the player he once was, although i just can't get over the new salary!! I haven't seen anything of Dalot but he's supposed to be extremely talented. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickG16 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Martial is a striker not a winger, last 2 games have proved that. Smalling has actually been something of a rock this season!

End of the First half I was thinking you had gone backwards again following the Newcastle game. Lukaku 7 only touches! But to be fair second half looked the more dangerous and played with far greater pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
