Unpopular opinions thread [July edition] (self.reddevils)

I think this Mou will eventually drop Rooney from the first team in the upcoming season. If not, I'm afraid Wayne will become our own Gerrard from his last years at LFC, a club's 'icon' shoehorned into the first team, despite declining form which will hold us back

I don't think we should sign Pogba.

Why not?

Yes the fee like others have said but i just think its embarrassing to break the transfer record on a player we let go on a free. Another thing is that i feel Pogba plays best in a 3 man midfield.

the fee

[–]redaleksJose Mourinho 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's not our money and the club has more of it than they know what to do with. Pogba is already a top midfielder and only improving, he's well worth it.

"We have 10 average centre midfielders, which do we need one world class one..."

The price of pogba is what would bother me. Feel like we can use that kind of money more efficiently

We're weak at right back. Valencia is hugely overrated by this sub and not good enough to wear the shirt. Hasn't been for a few years. Darmian might come good but isn't ready to start. Ditto Valera. Ditto TFM. We are desperately in need of a talented right back.

I know it'd anecdotal but since hes come back from his injury he's looked good enough. If not we have to trust in Darmian. You can't sign world beaters in every position and waiting a year or 2 for Darmian to reach his peak wouldn't be a bad idea. Darmian isn't bad enough to ride the bench and we might as well sell him if that's the plan, how else would he develop

He's also being very harsh on Tony V, he's definitely fit to wear the shirt.

[–]shihvvbSchneiderlin 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

Darmian is a good RB. Before attacking, a RB should know how to defend which Rafael did not know.

Is this popular saying of the week

Rooney - Not our best centre mid (or even second best). Not our best no.10. Not our best striker. Stop trying to shoe horn him in to the team. His place is on the bench.

Mkhitaryan's stats have been inflated because BVB were playing some of the best attacking football in the world at the time. He is not going to produce/score nearly as many goals for a team in transition.

However, he is surely a big upgrade to our right wing.

I think Rooney is still good and deserves to start regularly

[–]mufcirclejerk 8ポイント9ポイント  (1子コメント)

Genuinely curious as to what in the last 2 years has convinced you of this.

[–]kw9403Rooney 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

I wouldn't say I think he deserves it but logically I think he we'll be a guarenteed starter under Mourinho no matter what

[–]Complexitylvl9001 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

On Rooney, I think Mou had to guarantee him a first team position didn't he?

[–]WaxTaxMax 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Where did you get that from?

This isn't an unpopular opinion. You get chased out of here with pitch forks for suggesting otherwise.

[–]PX44 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Darmian isn't considered good enough at RB for us because his offensive contributions are found lacking, but we should focus on the primary role for the position, which is defensive, where he is fine.

The only reason his offensive contributions became so important, was because of 1) how LVG sets up teams to play, but really, 2) we've had shit all for wingers for the past season - Lingard and Mata are not very good, and we have finally grabbed somebody that could be a credible threat without pulling defensive players up the pitch.

Even with the signings of Mkhi, Bailly, and Zlatan, we'll still strugge to get into the top four if we have Herrera and Schneiderlin as our 1st choice midfielders.

[–]BertrandRusJose Mourinho 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

idk if this is popular or unpopular but I think Rooney isn't good enough at midfield for us. He might hit those cross-fields balls and from time to time play an ok through ball but in spite of all that, he's just painfully average when it comes to the basics i.e controlling the ball, dribbling and basic passes

E: (Is this an opinion?) I think people are over exaggerating the Mourinho-Rooney love story. I think once Mourinho realizes the glaring weaknesses of Rooney which can't be ignored when it comes to being a CM, he'll drop him to the bench and play him like Schweinsteiger has been played in the Euros (coming off the bench to see of games)

Selling Mata to Everton is a huge mistake and will come to bite us back in the arse.

Don't downvote in an unpopular opinion thread idiots.

[–]danskzwag 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Sanches and TFM are similar and we really haven't lost out on signing him

[–]Complexitylvl9001 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I feel like egos will clash one way or another with Rooney and Ibra this year, I know Ibra talks about the massive respect he has for Rooney and how he's world class, but Idk if they'll click.

[–]danskzwag 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Rooney is average in all positions he plays
