He can be extremely successful in a set up where he doesn't need to do the running, he just needs to be the player that doesn't give you the space to exploit. And that can only happen when the players around him give him that chance. I.E, Other CB partnerships leaving little room to work something or pushing them towards Maguire and then himbjust stepping in and taking the ball, releasing it (Sooner than he likes to atm) and then getting back into his position. Hes more a positional player than a man marker. |

Martial will score plenty of goals if he stays fit. Can't see us getting a better striker in our current state. |

Offensively, the movement is £#%&!ing awful, the midfield is awful. Not sure what youre expecting from Maguire ? To do their job for them ? To start the chain of events ? Who's moving for him to even pass to ? Whos creating space for him to step into ? |

Only Aguero, Sterling, Mane (Which kills me to say) are close to the best the prem has atm? We've been so used to having great players over the years, we expect every player to have the same abilities. We wont see another Ronaldo, Rooney, Cole, Yorke like players that much because the game has improved and so have the players coming into it, because of that, hardly anyone can fill the boots of a "World Class" player. We were blessed to have the teams we had and the Manager we had. What do you expect? For every United player to live up to the past greats? Wont happen. |

And the attackers are our best players. Which backs up the point about issues being more collective than blaming the forwards. |

The midfield creativity, or lack of, is a big reason for the lack of chances. Theres no through balls, no one two simple passes. All over the top, side to side or my pet peeve, going bloody backwards. Opposition know that so sit their defenders back, wait for the shit over the top ball, gain possession, play one ball through our whole midfield, for Maguire to try to take control, get spun and leave a Grand Canyon behind him |

Our team is awful. But the talent is at the front end of the pitch. Martial has 3 in 6 in the league; Rashford 5 in 11. They're just about doing their job with no supply line. Stick anybody you want up front, a midfield of Fred, Mctom and Pereira with AWB and Young as full-backs isn't helping them win golden boots. |

Think they’re on 12 so far? Considering Martial has been out for a while, and Rashford had a terrible spell of form, it’s really not that bad. |

I will defend AWB though, hes been solid for the most part, very hard to beat one on one, seems to be In the right place at the right time, making last ditch successful tackles, not going down, standing the ball up, being tight to attackers and not making rash tackles. Yes he was at fault for the Bournemouth goal but that's just young determination to win the ball. His decision making in them situations will improve with maturity. Fred and Pereira dont fit the style of play we want to instil. The English game is too fast for them both. And Young, well he just needs to realise that just because hes the longest serving player atm, doesn't mean he can do whatever he pleases. Lazy @#%&!. |

These attackers we have now are the best chance to get that attacking prowess back, obviously its not working yet but you've got to give them time to know each others game surely? When we dont have fully fit attacking options then yeah its gonna be very difficult. Rashford or Martial cant do it on their own with that midfield behind them. Hence why the creativity and chances come from them playing together. And Greenwood will slowly become part of that the more he plays with them. I dont think we should of sold both Lukaku and Sanchez because at least with one of them, we would have injuries covered and a bit more experience. |
