Some will point you in the direction of stats, where we have a much higher win % with Morgan.

But watching each week, he is a decent player but nothing more. Never really dominated a game, never put in a man of the match performance (he was quite good vs everton last year though), just 1 goal and 1 assist, occasionally makes a nice pass.

Yeah, I remember being impressed by him in that Everton game.

Would you say he's a United quality backup/rotation? Seems like the general consensus is that he's been decent but not set the world alight.

United quality backup/rotation

I have no issues with him being given a peripheral squad role but we need significantly better players to be brought in for our central midfield positions.

It's sad that all our midfielders are basically squad players. All that money wasted when we could have pursued better players for less. To be fair though, Morgan did have an amazing season for Southampton last season.

Fair enough.

What I meant was, say, having Kante as a starter and then playing Schneiderlin occasionally as rotation. Or is he not even that good?

[–]LDN2016 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

both are the wrong profile of player for the system really.

i get kante's work ethic is really useful but matuidi does the same with a lot more technical ability.

kante's an upgrade on morgan but you really need even better than that.

look at someone like koke who presses like a maniac but then he has outrageous technical ability too.

Hard to say really. I think he has a place if he has good players around him but i wouldn't be so sad or suprised if we sold him in a few seasons

Underwhelming. I thought he'd really energize our midfield but I am having my doubts about him. Southampton may have been his level.

Southampton may have been his level.

Absolutely. His NT don't really rate him either.

From what I remember, he was playing very well during the early parts of the season. Did he drop off? Or was it just a case of fans overrating him in the beginning because he was a new signing?

Any remotely attractive player gets the whole gushing fan girl treatment. Stick Diego Costa's face on him and watch half of his supporters wither away.

He's been thoroughly mediocre in a system designed to get the most out of him.

Anyone who attacks us bypasses the man with ease and he has absolutely no chance of growing into a deep lying playmaker role. He just does not have the technical ability to ever be a Xabi, Pirlo, Carrick, Verratti, Modric etc. esque figure.

If he's just going to be a destroyer type holding midfielder there's about 5 players in the French NT alone ahead of him in the pecking order, maybe 6 or 7 if we're being a bit more objective.

Interesting. Seems like you rate him lower than the other commentators.

Yeah, I get that van Gaal's system is based on low risk and defensive pragmatism, so I figured a guy like Schneiderlin would thrive in it. Do you think he's suffered from not having a Wanyama type of player next to him?

He cleans up messes. He isnt a playmaker like Xabi Alonso

Have you not watched any games?

[–]bellend1234[S] 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

If I watched United games, I wouldn't be asking.

[–]StannisJrScholesy -2ポイント-1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Better than Coquelin, that's for sure.

Last match he was amazing. Proper sweeper.

Proper sweeper.

No he wasn't.
