I thought Bruno was pretty average, still don’t get the hype. Just a FIFA player who shoots on sight, a glorified Darron Gibson.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

You also think the Covid lockdown is an unnecessary social experiment so we take your crazy theories and bin them.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I never said that you vacant ignoramus. Nice to see you in your United safe space after everyone gave you a good slap on the politics thread.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Lol, you leave the politics thread every couple of hours when your views rightly get laughed at. Peter Hitchens is your hero ffs 😂

Face it. You’ve just shown you know less about football than you do about politics. Which was already shiiiit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I never said Covid lockdown was a social experiment and I don’t consider Peter Hitchens a hero, what an absurd comment. Utterly bizarre.

My views get considered and debated, yours get laughed out of town.

Your lack of insight matches your total lack of grace, it is quite embarrassing. You have the views and outlook of a 13 year old boy and write like a parody of far left opinion.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
that is pretty rich
your first comment is bruno was average. You lost all credibility after that
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am so sorry I triggered you by criticising your deity. Diversity of opinion is important, and I am sure there are dozens of Chelsea players you think are crap or average or overrated - you are welcome to think that.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

What an odd comment.

Face it, you didn’t watch the game.

So make use of the 5 permitted subs

...:.:

We did. Pogba was never going to start two games on the trot.

Ole needs to grow a pair and find a way to start both these guys in a midfield 3. He's constantly harping on about playing attacking, attractive football and taking risks yet he's too scared to set up the team without at least two defensive mids.
=======

Give him a chance. They have only been both available together for 1 game and Pogba hasn't played a game since Xmas

Was very impressed with Fernandes.

Pogba is a class footballer, just needs to play regularly.

The rest of your team has a lot of weaknesses though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
now that is a fair comment

as a utd fan, I would add that the likes of rashford and martial usually play themselves into top form so they were always going to struggle in the first game post a long layoff

Anyway I will leave you Robb to your safe space, night.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Sounds like you need to run to your safe space.

Pro-tip - watch the game before you criticise players. It might help in your future endeavours 👉

I thought Greenwood made a massive difference when he came on for you guys.

That ball from pogba to Rashford on the half volley was outrageous

posted on 19/6/20

Bruno is class. Just needs to be less selfish at times. Then again, considering how useless our front three were tonight, I don't blame him for trying the spectacular tonight

Any ideas which previously banned Chelsea spacker this one is?

Just some knobber on the election thread who thinks we shouldn’t have had a Covid lockdown.

.......

He should have done better from there for sure. Poor first touch.

Greenwood can pass and move. Dan James can run really fast.

He’ll stagnate on the right wing though

An idiot then. I shall just ignore the fool in future.

How is Greenwood as a lone striker? I know he's still a little weak physically but would it be a terrible idea to give him a run of games through the middle and have Rash/Martial either side of him?

Something about Martial in the striker position doesn't work for me. He's too one dimensional for me. He's best when running at defenders. Doesn't get in positions to score tap ins / headers and misses too many chances

Yeah I agree he should’ve done better, pass was ridiculous.

It was almost like the reverse of the goal Rash scored against Spurs last season.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

It's probably a better position for his development right now as he'll get more of the ball and be in the game a little more than up front. There aren't many 18 year old players who come in up front and make an impact against tough PL centre backs. He's certainly a lot more classy and technical on the ball than James is though and always manages to get a good chance when he's on.

Yeah.

The worry is that he’ll be overplayed. I think Ole’s handled him really well. It’s just annoying we’ve had to rely on James so much on that side.

Hopefully we’ll get Sancho and it’ll make a massive difference.

he's looked a lot better on the right than up top this season, though if he's added 3kg of muscle during lockdown that should help.

only problem then is that martial's never convinced on the right (either).

Tbf I was joking - was a reference to a comment that Dunc said to myself and Darren.

I’d love to see Greenwood there every week.

Martial was starting to get into the game once Pogba came on. I thought he was hard done by coming off instead of Rashford. He should have got his shot away from that Bruno pass, came very close to scoring but for a good Lloris save and I think he also played the pass for a Bruno shot that wizzed just past the post.

I’m 100% certain that if Sancho was playing on the right in that second half we win that game

BK, Rob’s taking the piiiiiss, it was what dunc said the other day.

I agree completely with what you say. Shades of RVP when he first went to Arsenal. He didn’t start regularly as a striker for a few years for that reason.
