Jesus, most on here have bitched and moaned about how we don't have any genuine wingers in the side. We sign one in the summer and suddenly he's too predictable. Frankly, aren't all wingers who hug the touchline somewhat predictable? They're either gonna go forwards or back and will eventually get to the point of a cross.
It's early days too. He's doing what he knows for now. Wingers don't necessarily need tricks either. Balance, pace, confidence and technique are the key elements and he has all of those. Giggs never relied on tricks. He mainly 'skied' past defenders by being direct and showing wonderful balance. He's still fitting in and has scored our last two goals and came the closest on Sunday too. He was a threat to Insua, beat him a few times, got to the byline and got ZERO support from O'Shea and no-one showing for him on the inside. Considering it was an area we were clearly looking to exploit, I felt sorry for the lack of support for the lad.
£#%&! me, victimsing the new lads when the experienced ones were the real letdown yesterday.

"victimising" ffs. I'm sorry, but if you want to play for Manchester United then I'm going to judge you harshly. And if you're going to play as shit as all of our players did on sunday, then expect to be criticised. I'm just saying exactly what i see. Valencia hasn't impressed me. Believe it or not it actually takes a bit to impress me when you're playing in one of europes top 5 teams.
If all we want from our wide players is running and crossing then why didn't we keep Richardson? At least he can take a free kick ffs.
