@aijukaT97 @FPLfrasier Bruno’s not turning up In games like semi finals against Real Madrid? Taking his team to the triple? Multiple league titles and cups? Bruno for most of his career at United has been dunked on, not dunking on others

@Cryptocris77 @FPLfrasier ‘On every big game’ like Bruno doesn’t dunk on all of them too

Strong argument that Bruno is the best creative player PL has ever seen KDB only debate for me really.

@F4REVERMANUTD I never said I don’t rate him, he’s a great player but the KDB comparisons are a joke

Cry about his body language all you want, the stats prove he’s world-class while carrying a poorly run club.

@F4REVERMANUTD Dumb take, fernandes has had multiple extortionate teams built around him, United spent more than City a lot of the time and he was constantly coming up short, getting well beaten, finishing very low in the league and throwing his toys out the pram when things didn’t go his way

Fernandes played a brilliant through-ball during the 2022/23 season, it was often Wout Weghorst a hard-working but severely limited striker—trying to convert it. Fernandes' statistical output is actively punished by his teammates limitations

@MusialaEra The guy is English, way more English than French, I have zero problems with Dembele playing for France because hes always been French, speaks French and was raised there, Olise has a London accent ffs, it’s a shame England let him pick France, Saka has that rw on lock OUAT

Very funny discourse. You believe Olise should have chosen England because he was born and raised there. But when it‘s let‘s say Dembele who was born and raised in France you believe he should play for Mali because that‘s where his father is from. Hypocrites all of you

@taahir98 He’s at a restaurant in London my friend (he’s a Michelin star chef) works at, Salah goes there quite alot apparently but this is the first time he’s come with team mates, I got a text from my friend when they walked in and a couple hours later they posted this, hardly a holiday

The standard is on holiday again 🤔🤔🤔

@ammandev This is such a BS narrative, he’s had multiple mega money teams built around him, United have outspent city at times and he was surrounded by huge names and always disappointed.

If Bruno Fernandes had either that City team or that Arsenal team around, he’d be clear of this record, I’m absolutely convinced. 🪄

@GunnerPuls Gerrard widely considered better than scholes and kaka I never really got the hype bar a couple of seasons at Milan

All-Time Top midfielders Pyramid Do you Agree chatt??

@BBCNews No, he’s also had multiple extortionate teams built around him and has always fallen short, he’s a good player but the hype is mad

Is Fernandes most creative Premier League player ever? bbc.in/3PJNx6w

@amyungruff @MoSalah Casemiro somehow being a united club legend after I’ve witnessed him drop stinker after stinker since he signed for ridiculous money is hilarious,

@MoSalah Leaving Liverpool in their worse season meanwhile Casemiro is leaving a club legend. You’re also a legend but you’re leaving in the worse era that you are also a part off 🚶🏽🚶🏽🚶🏽

@forst1996 @McFlybowy At that time walker was not considered that, Gundogan was no way near that title either, and compared to WR Pogba, Zlatan, Sanchez, Lukaku, Mkhitryan, Matic it was absolutely nothing

@Cryptocris77 @McFlybowy Walker was already very comfortably the best RB in the league when he was at Spurs? Gundogan was amongst the absolute best midfielders in the world at Dortmund. Mahrez had just won POTS. Cancelo was widely regarded as one of the best fullbacks at Juve

The strongest case for Sir Alex Ferguson over Pep Guardiola is actually pretty simple. Football management is more than tactics. Pep may have influenced football more stylistically, but Ferguson mastered every single aspect of management at the highest level for over 25 years. He wasn’t just coaching a team, he was running an empire. What makes Ferguson unique is that he built multiple great teams from scratch and kept winning through entirely different football eras. Most managers have one peak cycle. Ferguson had about four. The early 90s side with Cantona was different from the Treble side. The Treble side was different from the Ronaldo/Rooney era. Then he still won another title in 2013 with a squad that honestly had no business dominating the league the way it did. That level of reinvention over two decades is probably the hardest achievement in football management history. And unlike Pep, Ferguson did not always have the best squad, best structure, or most money. He regularly outperformed stronger teams through mentality, adaptability, and sheer force of leadership. There’s a reason rival fans still talk about “Fergie Time” almost like mythology, his teams psychologically overwhelmed opponents before games even started. Another thing people underrate is how difficult Ferguson’s environment was. The Premier League during his era had constantly changing rivals: Arsenal under Wenger Chelsea under Mourinho with Roman Abramovich’s money Liverpool historically Newcastle’s rise in the 90s Blackburn spending heavily Then later the rise of billionaire-backed clubs Yet Ferguson remained the constant. Pep, meanwhile, has mostly coached elite, ready-made superclubs with extraordinary infrastructure already in place. That’s not his fault, but it matters in historical comparisons. Ferguson turned young players into world stars repeatedly. Beckham, Giggs, Scholes, Ronaldo, Rooney different generations entirely. Pep improves elite players, Ferguson often created them. And then there’s the longevity argument, which is massive. Staying at the top for 25+ years in football is nearly impossible now. Dressing rooms change, tactics evolve, player power grows, ownership changes happen, pressure increases. Ferguson survived all of it and still retired as champion. Pep may end up as the greatest tactical coach ever. But Ferguson’s argument is that he was the more complete football manager leader, builder, psychologist, developer, winner, and cultural architect all in one.

@LFCLaurie The last couple of days has changed things, slot won the league sure but he had klopps squad and they were poor from February ongoing til now, he is very uninspiring as a manager as well, terrible with the media and rn it feels like we’re just wasting time until he goes.

Don’t think you can underplay what a huge gamble this is from Edwards and Hughes. We know Alonso would jump at the chance to manage us, so if he goes to Chelsea and succeeds while we stick with Slot and he flops, the criticism is going to be through the roof.

@mcmulhar I’ve never looked at his team and thought they were too attacking, they’ve consistently been too boring and not attacking enough whilst still managing to lack any defensive solidarity

Arne Slot was criticised for being too attacking at the start of this season. He ends it being criticised for not being heavy metal enough. If you stop to ask *why* the playstyle is this way currently, you see issues beyond the coach. Most prefer not to ask.

@McFlybowy Peps team destroyed Mourinhos, tactically he’s on a whole other level to Ferguson and showed that when they met.

@McFlybowy I disagree with a lot of the ideas that he only signs ready made superstars, far from it, Mourinho spent a killing at United on massive names and peps biggest name was Kyle walker, who he turned into the best rb in PL history, he made Raheem Sterling look like a world beater

@poculumwinecup He was far more athletic than rice as well

Gerrard has the same thing as Rice where because he's white people don't really acknowledge his freakish athleticism. However, he's so far clear of Rice technically that I should be placed in twitter jail for putting the two of them in the same sentence

@ItsAllOutFooty He was absolutely rapid, people just assume he wasn’t because his pace is in the 70s on fifa 🤣

@Watch_LFC Stupid statement, they won everything, reached 3 UCL finals and got 90+ points more often than not, they only didn’t win more because of a cheating City side, you literally can’t ask for more and they were great to watch and made alot more chances from open play than slotball

I am absolutely not here for the revisionism over Klopp’s era of football and his coaching style. We were all here for the years where we kept coming up against the limitations of Klopp’s philosophy: 1) Great in matches with big spaces but poor when teams didn’t give us space in behind. Season after season we struggled against low blocks. Klopp and Ljinders couldn’t coach our midfield to draw apart teams with the ball to make space for high quality chances when we faced low blocks. So we signed players like Keïta and Thiago to do that with their natural talent but… 2) High intensity meant lots of injuries to players like Keïta and Thiago at the worst moments so we went back to problem (1). All our creativity was basically from Trent. It wasn’t a brand of football that was conducive to consistent success. We had great streaks of huge success, seasons where we almost won quadruples but ultimately we failed in the final stages of the seasons because of the intensity and not being able to break down teams in the biggest stages. We had success but we needed to evolve the squad to be able to play with multiple weapons, not just hard running, intensity and relying on Trent and Salah’s individual brilliance.

@josh_uglyasf Chris Brown is some families attempt at recreating a modern Michael, he wasn’t half as talented musically, not even remotely close, he was a great singer and dancer though and a lot less crazy.

Do you argue with any of these???

@bouakoikai2 @ActuFoot_ He and his team are much better than zidane and Real Madrid, PSG are actually comfortably the best team in Europe, Madrid got crazy lucky, wrong decisions and won games they deserved to lose constantly.

@ActuFoot_ Il veut se comparer à Zidane mais ça marchera pas
