Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [30th - 31st August 2014]

I am getting to the point where I can't even be bothered to watch. Young and Valencia are just an embarrassment to football in general.
 
Other than Ronaldo, have we had a decent corner taker in the last 10 years? Giggs was woeful 90% of the time. It's shocking

Not being played in the correct way either..

Young's alright on the left wing, coming in and running at defenders, he just doesn't get the chance though really. And Valencia is alright as a proper wide man..

No and no. Neither of them is any good at either role. Valencia was appalling last season and Young hasn't been any good for years. The only time they ever look passable footballers is when we are playing a slow paced friendly where the opposition don't give a ****.

I think it's more of motto he's carried around with him for a number of years rather than being a one off thing he said before taking the job at United.

Nah, they are alright, granted they both shouldn't be starting in an ideal world, but the squad doesn't have better. You can't expect them to be Ronaldo and take on 2 or 3 players which is what they are being asked to do at the moment. They are ok when they 1 on 1 and have space to get behind the last defender.

All we need is the win here, doesn't matter how ugly it is. Will give the platform to build on.

Think we'd be doing a lot better without all our injuries though, this style of play really exposes the fact nobody at the back can pass properly. :(

They've got the right sponser then as we all know American cars are ok in straight lines but terrible at corners.
