The Official Man Utd Thread - Part 3.

[Nollaig O Muracu]

Every elite manager worth his salt in Gerrard's era tried to buy Gerrard to play him in midfield.

Which manager was the cause of this?

 

[Nollaig O Muracu]

It's almost as if their opinions about Gerrard are disingenuous and should be ignored?

Sure, it's not like any professionals share that opinion, is it?

When I was director of football at Real Madrid I had to evaluate the players coming through the youth ranks. We had some who were very good footballers. They had technique, they had athleticism, they had drive, they were hungry.

"But they lacked what I call knowing-how-to-play-football. They lacked decision making. They lacked positioning. They didn't have the subtle sensitivity of football: how a player should move within the collective. And for many, I wasn't sure they were going to learn".

“You see, strength, passion, technique, athleticism, all of these are very important. But they are a means to an end, not an end in itself. They help you reach your goal, which is putting your talent at the service of the team and, by doing this, making both of you and the team greater.

"In situations like that, I just have to say, Gerrard's a great footballer, but perhaps not a great player."

And this from the fella who said Vidic was okay Or is it different when ye do it?

. I just find it funny that Bruno is getting so much praise from the same SMC’s who had no time for Gerrard. That was my general point.

Football fans are bias shocka, innit?

He was just alright, creating is his job so he did that part of the game once or twice.

Otherwise meh.

He created 6 chances, 2 big chances.

You SSB.

He created two big chances?

Wow!

Sure a half decent keeper would equal that from kick outs in every game.

You don't half get carried away by Bruno Nollaig boy.

The chances he creates for the opposition balances that out though.

Just an average baller in my opinion.
