DYC. 7,542 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 After all the hype and 200 articles in the Daily Mail, Memphis has been a bit shit hasn't he? As expected coming from the Dutch league at such a young age he's gonna have to learn how to cope with actual defenders.The excitement, attention and hype surrounding his signing is very strange. You'd think they signed a POTY candidate. Depay is for the future. Suarez ripped the Eredivisie apart and he needed well over 18 months before he became a star. Depay doesn't even compare to Ajax Suarez yet. iseah100 and Weckerz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11Drogba 2,000 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Physically they are ready, that's what I thought during the last 15 minutes. They don't play like a team though, Memphis seems out of place most of the time. If Rooney gets injured or suspended they are in trouble.

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Whilst I am pretty sure, Utd won't be champions, I got this feeling that they will finish above us. But the big tests are yet to come. Who the fuck are Tottenham and Villa. iseah100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who the fuck are Tottenham and Villa.Unless something crazy happens like a bunch of our best players get injured for long periods then them finishing above us would be pretty embarrassing. We're stronger than they are in just about every area. iseah100 and kellzfresh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Unless something crazy happens like a bunch of our best players get injured for long periods then them finishing above us would be pretty embarrassing.We're stronger than they are in just about every area.Of course they are but they got immense depth in midfield, whilst we have none. Which is why injuries are exactly the point. We can't expect Hazard to not get injured again. We are only a couple of injuries away to look like a midtable team.With the big EPL money in, every team in the league has strengthened. There are no easy games anymore. It will be much harder to go on a run like last season. If United get some injuries to key midfielders they can rotate in Mata, Schweinsteiger, Blind or Januzai whilst we could play Moses, Mikel, Ramires or Cuadrado. I hope this won't make the difference.

Popular Post! Amblève. 4,995 Posted August 15, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted August 15, 2015 So much hypocrisy and double standards in this thread, lol.If it was us scraping through a win it'd be seen as "Only results matter", "We'll get better, it's only the start of the season" etc etc etc. But because it's a rival they're obviously shit and unimpressive, which is true but such a shortsighted thing to say all things considered.

I actually commend Utd for winning two games they weren't their best in. People need to understand that whilst they aren't playing amazing they are still getting results. They're obviously still trying to click - it'll be interesting to see when they do. If they keep scraping results in the mean time then we've got a serious title rival.

They won't win the league though imo, just because of the lack of goalscoring players in the team and rooney looks rusty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they keep scraping results in the mean time then we've got a serious title rival.That is true but then again, last season they had periods where they picked up wins despite not playing well and it didn't get them anywhere. I guess you would just expect United, after 1 season and spending more than 200m under Van Gaal, to get better but so far, they still look unimpressive as last season and lack that distinct style of play or identity, if you like, that Van Gaal has talked so much about.
