He's always good for a 'we need to take a look in the mirror' quote.

Fletcher was totally different class. Absolutely no comparison. He wasn’t a world beater but he was a good champions league level player.

ahhh so the “passion” and “he wants to play for United” voucher has expired on him.

we are talking about a man who plays at a CB or RB for Scotland because he isn’t better than mcgregor, Gilmore and McGinn.

he has never been good enough, he charges around against city or any traditional big games where emotions are high of the fans which mean his gung-ho stupid charging around is welcomed.

For years he has hid from the ball, always vacated the middle of the park chasing the ball and then fails to do the basics.
him and Fred play football like they are being controlled by two separate blind people playing fifa.

Fred is the better of the two and i believe can be coached to hold his position and press but it’s a joke we have both of them just stinking up the place.

As I’ve said until the cows come home, we are producing bullshit in our academy but because we paint out serves as a club that grows in own produce due to our success in the past it’s almost as if our manager feels this vibe and it’s forced on him.

A manager with free reign and no external pressures of “how’s we do thjngs at United” sells rashford, elanga and The Scottish Player immediately. and you’ll see where they end up.
Everton, schalke and Motherwell respectively!

He doesn’t hide or shirk but he’s not good enough to get in the right place at the right time and his control isn’t good enough so he mistimes tackles.

He gives 100% but the trouble is it’s 100% of average.

However, he absolutely should not be starting any games for Manchester United.

I've never seen a player hide more. He's terrified someone might pass to him.

I think he just doesn’t read the game very well so never in the right place.

This.

Mou, ole, RR and Slaphead McCloggs all picked him.

He is behind Fred in the zesty midfield spot.

LINDELOF, Fred and CE would be much stronger than anything with TSP in it..
