The Official Man Utd Thread - Part 3.

There seems to be a growing cash cow emerging in outraged Man Utd youtubers scratching for anything they can find to tell a story of outrage, bias and conspiracy.

Mirrors wider society imho

Not a productive echo chamber to spend too much time in my Super Manc Chap buddies
No m8, the criticism is not mild. He accused him of "Just Standing around". "Just standing around" is about as bad as it gets. Not only are you accusing him of being shit, you're also accusing him of not trying.

Which is complete bullshit. He works quite hard for the team, and the idea he has shown very little quality is nonsense too. He's doing very well holding up the ball and linking with attackers running off him. He's also scored a couple of goals and got an assist.

I agree with you about the cash cow btw. some of the fan channels have gotten as bad as the media for click bait. I've said that a few times on here already.
👍🏻



His assessment seems fair enough tbh. He's shown very little quality so far, but it's clearly still very early days.
Disagree, as above.
This young centre forward the same age as Wirtz but has been subjected to nowhere near the same level of scrutiny.
Lol, Wirtz cost a lot more than Sesko for a start. How do you think he'd be getting on if he played for Man Utd.?* Has Graeme come out and said he expects 4 assists in a game for a 100 million pound plus player yet? (I'm off for a wash. Feel dirty after defending Pogba, even if it was just to make a point).

Back.

I've seen a few citicise Wirzt, but I've also seen plenty (rightly) say give him time to settle in, and that he's creating chances which aren't being taken. Outside of my SMC bubble I've heard no praise or a call for time for Sesko. Nothing, nada, zilch.

Neville has said plenty on the Glazers (and other issues at the club) over the years.

Framing some mild Sesko criticism as his "hill to die on" doesn't seem to have much basis in fact.
Aye, maybe it was a bit OTT, but the fact is, Neville has become a very unlikable pundit shitting on the club that made him. I can understand you lot wanting top defend him for it.
 
Yes, if you stepped outside of your Manc echo chamber you'd realise that.
You’re barking up the wrong tree with this one. If anything they’re far more critical - just they do it about real things rather than what Sky go on about. I’m surprised as a data person you weren’t appalled at the hatchet job The Athletic did on Utd which was nicely shown up as a hatchet job.

TBF i hadn't seen that aspect of the criticism.

He works quite hard for the team, and the idea he has shown very little quality is nonsense too. He's doing very well holding up the ball and linking with attackers running off him.

I haven't seen as much as you, but I'd say that the link play aspect is the one area where he's probably delivered on expectations so far.

He's also scored a couple of goals and got an assist.

Which, objectively, is a poor return for a central striker.

Yet you re-post their content on here more than anyone...

Folks know that Wirzt is a quality footballer and perhaps choose to cover themselves a bit by criticising his slow-ish start but saying there are signs that he'll come good - and tbh there are. He could very easily be sitting on 2 goals and 5+ assists, with a little bit of luck & better finishing from his teammates.

tbh I've seen very little press about Sesko. He's been underwhelming but Mbuemo (and to a lesser degree Cunha) has picked up the slack.

I dread to think how the SMCs would react if there was a headline like this about Sesko, the day after a strong performance against Real Madrid...

I've got no time for him. I just like to argue 😉
