Probably give AWB 7/10

posted on 1/8/20

All bang on I would say.
The only thing I would add is that James should only be played on the left where he can be very good.

True. Not a good enough crosser to offer anything on the right.

Agreed. Or through the middle.

Pretty fair Ratings process. I’d have awb as 6.5 or 7. Otherwise about right, Bruno for impact possibly even 9.5.

And james a 6.

For some reason thought you’d given him a 7

If Fernandes isn’t a 10/10, you have very high standards

Pretty much agree with the OP. James maybe a 5, but not bad value for money.

Bruno 10... sole reason we are top 3

posted on 1/8/20

AWB a 7 purely for his defending

Needs a big Improvement going forward

Agree with the OP's ratings

Bruno has been sensational.

The others have been solid but we need even better from him next.

I'm not convinced that we'll win a PL with Maguire and AWB in defence but we'll see.

Agree OP, although James creeping into a 5 based on recent form.

Not really his fault though, early days for the kid.

He certainly is a major reason. He isn’t the only reason though.

From what I’ve seen of you guys, generous on James. I’d give him a 5.

Also i think AWB deserves an 8, he’s improved his attacking game a lot since joining you.

Shudder to think what AWB’s attacking game was like before because it’s been awful mostly.
I think he’s been a 7

Terrible in that regard. But imagine if he was good, or if he can step it up (I don’t think he will, doesn't have the raw ability and vision, but live in hope), he would be amazing. That defensive ability with quality ability to beat players with accurate and clever delivery, would be unstoppable.

Sadly I doubt we’ll see much more than a little improvement as an attacker.

All of them have been good signings, because all of them were necessary signings.

Ighalo and James should have been utilised more often.

Both better than the some of the wasters that get more time.

United still need more in the way of proper EPL quality strikers/centre forwards than just Ighalo though.

And someone to partner Maguire.

Yeah he was absolute rubbish going forward for Palace.

He’s been much better for you guys from what I’ve seen, still a long long way to go, but at least he has worked hard to improve a problem area. That deserves an extra half point for me

For me, Maguire is very comfortably a better signing than AWB.

Arguably our player of the season.

posted on 2/8/20

Extremely generous with Ighalo and James. Ighalo has had very little impact outside of a few cup games. And Dan James is facking shiiiiit.

James has been overused if anything. And I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that nobody in the entire division could have put in worse performances than him since around September time.

Ighalo has been used as he should be. He's not of the quality to start for United in the PL but is useful when we wish to rotate the squad for cup games

Teams have won the league with worse players in defence.

You are failing to take into account that IAmMe is genuinely so mental, he would sooner see James and Ighalo start than Rashford and Martial.
