samuel - united WE stand December 29, 2012

WeAreUnited - Hernandez and welbeck are forwards but they're of different ilks and style. let's be honest, hernandez is better in terms of coming off the bench.and poaching a goal, welbeck on the other hand needs regular matches in his effective position which is centre forward. Danny is still a work in progress in terms of being a predator striker and being clinical but he'll get there and that's why fergie admitted he needed time. His all round game is all there and just because a player has not scored, it doesn't mean they have not performed.

We Are United @ 17:55: "Welbeck was a disappointment today, but when he was moved to the right, he was a beast."

I thought the contrary - DannyTheLad was a beast leading the line, holding up the ball and generally harrassing both the central defenders AND FumblesFoster.

What about AshleyBloodyYoung - he had an assist when our former favourite, OG, scored the first but he missed yet-another point-blank shot in the 61st minute. Overall, he was just not UTD-quality again.

a pretty hardfought win today to sum it up.its absolutely fantastic that we have RVP.its also absolutely fantastic how we defended today.brilliant to see vidic back.we've got half a century of goals now.the only way we can maintain a high GD is to defend like we did today.on to wigan then.

@WeAreUnited:
Right, but Hernandez could HAVE and should HAVE a hat trick by then.
I'm not bashing Hernandez because he is a good player. But when he was a lone striker, he was very ineffective. Welbeck can hold and distribute the ball well and is better than Hernandez, his quick one-two passes with Rooney/Kagawa/Cleverly is a joy to watch. His movement with a ball is fantastic too and he is strong. And as you said he has a good future ahead of him. He just needs to work with his finishing a bit more. But that should come pretty soon if he gets a regular football.

Kagawa was fantastic for us today......

Great vision- wait until he is fit

Carrick- yet another good stint.

Clev- did well first half....disappeared in the 2nd

Vidic- welcome back Nemanja!!!!

Valencia- needs to find a left......one dimensional yet again. Poor for me

Danny boy- good 1st half.....nothing in the 2nd

Smalling- penalty in the first 5 mins could have been a disaster . He is NO right back!!!!! Btw, neither is Jones

Costas - I have said my bit on welbeck, good player but he is just below united class, he works hard but there is very little end product to his game. I do not see much difference between welbeck, and sturridge. He will get you the odd goal or 2, but when its needed he does come up short. It also shows how crucial rooney RVP and hernandez actually are to the team

@denton:
I agree with you. I thought Welbeck is good at what he does best.. being a forward. That's the thing that people here just don't bother to appreciate his skills at holding the ball and playing a nice short passes to open up defenders.

And agree on Young too. He just played it safe again. I thought Valencia was better than him tonight. Young did not bother to beat players, but the reason why our left flank looked a bit better at times because of Evra's support. Young did not even try to cross the ball more often. Once he got 2 players with him, he became very ineffective. Too bad though I thought his crossing has a very nice curl to it, hence an incisive pass.. bummer a confident lacking I must say

Fergie said loudly that chica must have ran his socks off on that dead pitch on wednesday,so was never going to start today.Welbz was fine,but lots of improvement needed.someone actually criticised young here for what actually,seriously that's a joke.he brought the first goal and the valencia's pull back he missed was one of those things,not like he didn't want to score.Vidic Motm by some margin and our defending was brilliant.carrick and clevrerly tired in the second half,understandably.we played how many matches in a week nw for God's sake,players aint machine.Valencia much improved considering he was playing right back in the second half and completing 90min after another.Kudos to all the lads,can't fault no one.some people needs to take a good look at themselves,you don't just slag players for the sake of it,Terrible...Bring on Wigan

quoting @fergie the boss

also shows how crucial rooney RVP and hernandez actually are to the team.

I know that it isn't measured only in goals, but this season in 4 games where we have comback, Chicha has scored every time, so yes it is about the goals.

Welbecks all aroung game is crazy good, nothing bad can say about that. and yes Chicha is a great supersub but the lad has scored also when he has played 90 minutes. HE uses hsi chances.

But this is nothing impossible that Welbeck couldn't change, he will have his scoring instict. and yes he hasn't played this season so much, only as a winger. People over here know I always defend Welbeck cause the lad has potential and will be a great player.

It's just that, goals are what defines a striker. No matter what, and this implies in many strikers. But the hold-up play is a lso a huge part in todays football.

So iif the lad could combine both like Chicha has done it this season, then he will complete his potential. If Chicha can improve his all around game, Welbeck can imrpove his goalsscoring game.

peace. :)

Positive to have kagawa back and looks like he's hit the gym and get the upper body strenght needed as he was getting bullied in that number 10 attacking playmaker role and his class was not in doubt. First touch, quick feet, skillful, mobility, passing/vision and all were on show again within the minutes he was on the pitch. He has the ability to bag goals as wel. He's a welcome fresh player added to the team, he will hopefully keep improving.

And @redlagion mate,

Yes Valencia was better today, but if it was Nani in his shoes, he would be blasted over here, and don't say no. Cause we have been there.

Anyway, won't say anything else, cause that's how I saw the game, the most important thing is 3points, no complaints, Vida and Kagawa are back, Danny got playing time, RVP scored. clean sheet and most importantly 7points ahead.

TOP OF THE LEAGUE BABY!

Not united class.. What is united class exactly? If he wasn't, why has he been handed a new contract and fergie looking to build the team around home grown players?. How many games has welbeck started considering he is never going to be an effective sub?.

WeAreUnited - I have said this, and said it allot, rooney and RVP gives us the complete strikers, its most likely we will buy the dortmund forward, so welbeck goes further down the pecking order. Welbeck is a good player, but I would rather lose welbeck than hernandez. You can easily find another welbeck, its very hard to find another chico, especially what he does, and its vey hard to find a striker who can score double igures and off the bench. I also feel chico has improved greatly, yes he is a goalscorer, but his movement and impact has made defenders think, for me I never thought we would find the new ole G solkjaer. For competing against rooney and RVP, 10 goals is a sensational return, especially with the few starts he has been given

How many games has welbeck started considering he is never going to be an effective sub?. The logic that a player has to score to have a good performance is used by those with a simple sight of the concept of football. Welbeck is talented, fergie knows he requires time to refine the composure he lacks at this moment. Is he a natural poacher like hernandez? No, he has a far superior all round game and if he can get the confidence strikers need to score regularly then it will go a long way to helping his development.

Was heartening to see Kagawa back in the line up today. Fresh movement up front, bags of creativity and the quick one-touch passes to unlock defences - we need more of that. That ball to Young for the cross that led to the own goal was delicious.

@WeAreUnited
hehe gotcha..
But then again.. the reason why sometime people are so tired over Nani because of his tendency to lose the ball when he doesn't need too. And the fact that his decision making in the game is more often than not is questionable.

Totally understand and this is a good discussion, but for our next Tuesday game pay a close attention to small things that count :)

RVP's shirt s read:

You

Letters were the standard BPL Player name Iron-ons. Looked like he did it himslef.

Now, the 64000 dollar question is "Who is Tchuna?" Best bet is the Dutch Ref that was beaten to death eariler this year or RVP's Grand-dad.

GC December 29, 2012

I felt our wingers were fine. I do wish Valencia would try to look for other options rather than just trying to cross it, especially when the defender will clearly block it from getting into the box. the frustrating thing is I have seen him feint a cross, cut back and find a pass, last season especially, so why not try to do that more often? He has the ball control and skill, so it's probably more of a mental block than anything. Young tries to play the ball a little more down the left rather than just cross it and he links up with Evra very well, Valencia could try to do the same with Rafael/Smalling/Jones. Kagawa on the wing for next match?
Defensively, I thought we were superb. What a difference a Vida makes, eh? Evans for me was also particularly good.
One thing that worries me is how much game time Carrick is getting. He has been inmense, but he has played most minutes recently and that's not an optimal situation for a 31 y/o. If we brought Sneijder in, we could rotate our midfield and it would be fresher both physically and mentally, provided we continue to play the same formation and don't switch formations a lot. This 4-2-3-1 is doing rather well for us and I think we should stick to it, assuring that regardless of personnel, we continue to play a certain way with minor changes (more attacking or more defensive/posession based) depending on the midifield pairing.

samuel - united WE stand - no has hernandez, and he has banged in the goals. Its my view, I do not think he is good enough, if he comes good I will eat humble pie, but I just do not see welbeck ever becoming a united class striker. United class striker? go look at the past 2 decades, cantona, hughes, cole solkjaer, yorke, sheringham, ruud, rooney, ronaldo, RVP, hernandez, that is your united class strikers.

@radlegion

yeah no problem mate.
I always do watch the small things, that's why I said my opinion.

Welbeck did good, but compared to Chicharito, he only kept the ball and made some runs, It was only when he went to the right, when I saw his determination. YES. he was denied 2 times, but that doesn't mean anything, cause if we count the saves that are made, Chicharito for example had in the last game 5 goals.

And I compare him to Chicharito cause they are in the same situation, the difference is, last season it was Welbeck who had the nod, and now it's Chicharito. Chicha has influenced from his first chance and Welbeck not. Not saying he will not do it. We need all our 4 strikers.

Valencia played good, better than in his last games. But that doesn't change the fact that, he isn't doing well. He is uncomfortable at the moment. If it was Nani, this would be instead of a thread, it would be a NANI thread. Icomoare these two, cause here it lies the doublestandards.

In my opinion we need both. But you have to compare in this situation where Valencia ain't performing. And why I say this you ask? Because we have been used that Valencia the SILENT KILLER produces every time, doesn't make decisions that only are implies for Nani and this is for many peoples opinions. The only reason why I say this is cause Valencia is not the player of the season that he was last season.

Otherwise we are good, they will improve, and we need all our players, just look how Kagaawa played, reminded me so much of Silva and Cazorla.

The only thing I don't agree is that Welbeck is not United class, let's give him a proper run as the lonestriker and let's see how he does.
He has potential and he will come good. But the question is, will he get his chance? maybe yes, maybe no, we'll see. Let's hope he will develope as the next Ronaldo, and if not then We Are ManUtd and we will survive. But that's not the case, WQelbeck will make it here.

And I think you reviewed Chicharito very good.
I think many here realise that Chicharito is better than Welbeck AT this moment, that's not the question, and nobody is saying he's bad, they just can't see that Chicharito should start every time when he can from the 90 minutes. ANd that he is the complete striker, he has improved so much thay you can say he is a complete striker.

We'll see. hope for the best.

GC - valencia is an orthodox direct winger. If you want technical link up play, he's not the player. His strenght mainly is to fly down the wing and cross, he's not that much of a technician to be making complex combination play. Valencia's strenght at this moment can't be seen. He hesitates, tries to make things more complicated when clearly he hasn't got the natural skill to handle it, the sooner he gets back to what he does best, the better.

On sneijder, he's never going to come in, in fact no significant signing will be made, added with the fact he's not similar to carrick and can't be a replacememt.

WeAreUnited - to be honest, with the way the wingers like valencia have performed, are we surprised we are linked with CR7? not really. If CR7 really is serious about not signing a contract, madrid are at a cross roads, so that will be interesting if united go complete bonkers an break the bank for ronaldo. Or they call Madrid's bluff, play it at their game, and tell ronaldo to look bring down the transfer price, if they some how can and he is available for 60 million, if I was united snap him up, pending if he has not lost the pace

samuel - united WE stand December 29, 2012

F.i.t.b - that's your view. Fergie will decide who's united class and who isn't and as long as welbeck keeps developing within the confines of oldtrafford, he may well reach the "united class". He has the talent and right temprament to be top class.

Log in to Reply

WeAreUnited December 29, 2012

I am not surprised, and this is not bashing Valencia only, but also Nani and Young. The only one who has improved when we look at their talent, is Young. Mased on his talent, he won't and can't afford anything more than what he is doing, maybe 5-6 goals in the odd places. That's why he was captured.
A squad player never a CR7.

As for Valencia and Nani, well you know the truth. LEt's hope both get a resting, anyway Nani is getting and the ycome strong.

I for myself would more than welcome Ronaldo. But we'll see. peace.

If that happens, how is he going to progress? he had a good season, but I am still yet to be convinced. Did I say he was shit? no, I just said he is missing that extra bit of quality that separates the good ones, to the quality ones

I'm driving so listened to it on the radio the lads on MUTV at half time had Valencia Utds best player after 45mins yet he's get slagged off again by some.Come to the conclusion some fans make up their mind about a player and it dose'nt matter what he does.I find this kind of tunnel vision strange against our own players

WeAreUnited December 29, 2012

cmon @wayne

you knwo you just saying,.

And who cares what the lad of MUTV says? they are also human like we, just has a job to comment.

The only tunnel vision here is the one against Nani. It's not bashign him, nothign liek that. Just that we need more from him. I think Samuel said it the best and I quote him :

"Valencia is an orthodox direct winger. If you want technical link up play, he’s not the player. His strenght mainly is to fly down the wing and cross, he’s not that much of a technician to be making complex combination play.

Valencia’s strenght at this moment can’t be seen. He hesitates, tries to make things more complicated when clearly he hasn’t got the natural skill to handle it, the sooner he gets back to what he does best, the better."

The last one is the best quote that describes that no one has said anythign bad about him. just that he ain't the player of the season that he was.

Like Nani also, he hasn't been the player he was last season. If we can get both back at their full strenght WE WOULD BE having a great advantage.

don't get it wrong mate :) nobody has make their mind. Like I said the only player getting doublestandards for years, well are Carrick and Nani.

Yeah right, not United class? What is that? I would say 'fans' who use that on our regulars are the ones who are not United class. Young did his job and still get blamed? Haters will always hate. Some people's idea of point blank is anywhere inside the penalty area, wow, it must be really hard not to score once you are inside the area. Wonders why so many players cant even buy a goal or assist while AshleyBloodyYoung could, he was suppose to suck so bad that he is one of the worst signings i thought?

My take on this is slightly different - I'd sound out his agent (Mendes, the guy who got "pocket money" for sending Bebe to OT) about the seriousness of CR7's desire to return THEN I'd low-ball TheVirus and let them stew. Madrid are not impervious to the general economic malaise in Spain so they can't level the playing-field to their benefit as they have done so often in the past. Money talks - and MUFC's commercial wealth is growing ca$h on trees. So, I'd offer them 50 million right now; 35 million in the summer; and/or 20 million when he's in the last year of his contract. AND I'd let Ronaldo know that he won't be making more per week than RVP or TheWayneBoy. Let him dream on that !

I know that "player swaps" are unusual in footie but sending Chicharito (plus $$$$) to Madrid in exchange for CR7 would be an interesting deal for both clubs. Chicharito is HUGE all over Latin America and his purchase would be a huge bonanza for RM's commercial department.

Of course, Ronaldo's wage-demands are likely to be somewhere-beyond-absurd which would probably put the kibosh into any such deal. If that's the case then he can set his sights on PSG and their petro-zillions.

Marq @ 20:25: "Young did his job and still get blamed? Haters will always hate. "

I suppose that you've aimed that comment at my earlier post ( @ 18:38).

Let me answer you - I don't "hate" AshleyBloodyYoung, I just don't rate him. In much the same way that I was a DimmySceptic. Dimmy wasn't good enough to get regular playing time; Young isn't, too. Not enough end-product - and end-product is what "United quality" is all about and has been for a long time while SAF has overseen the team.

I criticized Dimmy because he promised so much and - considering his four years, huge transfer fee, and great expectations - delivered relatively little (I classify myself as a "Sceptic" because I recognize that he wasn't completely useless, just not good enough). Likewise with AshleyBloodyYoung - big transfer fee and not much product.

About the "point-blank miss" - today's and not the three from the match against Newcastle - he was completely open, inside the box, with a clear sight of goal. The pass from AV7 was low and hard but he completely missed it - what is called an "air-shot". (Maybe it bobbled - I've not heard any comments about that although the pitch was not billiard-table-smooth today.) What one would expect from a "United quality player" is something more than that.

Marq, M8, I'm willing to acknowledge a mistaken opinion - but there has to be evidence to the contrary to make me change my opinion. Four misses inside the penalty area (on shots with the keeper at his mercy) in two games is hardly compelling evidence to the contrary. Dimmy was sent-to-Coventry for missing twice in the FACup semi-final against ManShitty in May, 2011; SAF hardly gave him a look-see after that. I would imagine that AshleyBloodyYoung's leash is both tight and short; if he can't produce end-product then he's going to be benched. If he can produce end-product then I'll happily admit that my impression (and criticisms) is wrong. So far, though, the empirical evidence is not on your side of the argument.

Such a poor performance. In the second half they all looked so tired. They didn't even attempt to look for the ball, play quick passes and make runs forward. Its shameful so many players were hiding.

De Gea - not tested

Evra - good
Vidic - good maybe MOTM
Evans - on another day could have cost us the game
Smalling - not a right back

Carrick - subdued
Cleverley - poor
Young - poor
Valencia - better than Young

Kagawa - poor
Welbeck - worst player on the pitch in red.

When Robin Van Persie came on we had quality up top and ball started to stick. Then we have his goal. What a player. Could be the winning ticket in the title race.

Daniel88 - complete bollocks. We were comfortable throughout. Perhaps should have tested the keeper more but it was more important we got through the game without picking up any injuries on what was potentially a dangerous surface.

Not sure what game you were watching TBH. Welbeck/Cleverley/Young worked really hard throughout, Carrick hardly missed a pass, neither did Kagawa.

We won the game, and after the drama of the last few weeks, kept a clean sheet. And you're fucking moaning.

Young doesn't have to prove his worth to anyone who adds bloody to someone's name given by his parents. Sir Alex trust him and that is enough. Otherwise Bebe would be the one playing.

Any wonder Evra has been performing much better recently with Young in front of him?

I watched a game where we were dominated in long periods by Graham FUCKING Dorrans.
I watched a game where we couldn't string 3 passes together.
I watched a game where we defended well but couldn't a barn door.
