Morgan Schneiderlin

[Goat]

Ha Ha Ha.

You know Bracewell wasn't Claus Thomsen dont you mate?

I know Morgs was head and shoulders above every single player in this league 18months ago.

He was anonymous. I can barely remember him being there.

That just reflects poorly on your memory, not the boy Morgs.

I think he'd be a great signing. He's a good player and proved so when at Southampton, it hasn't worked at Utd but that happens.

Schneiderlin. FFS I just dont understand the fascination with throwing pots of cash after a player who offers no specialism whatsoever. he is the ultimate Moyes utility player. We really are heading for the primordial swamps again if a no mark like this is seen as a big money signing for us.

I''d pay no more than £5M for a player like that.

Mate he's good. And I can say that from seeing him play from a very early age.

Sadly, but happily for you, I don't think we are even in for him.

What did he do to catch the eye? Five yard ball here and there and and the odd interception? If we cant ask Davies et al to do that and save us £20M we may as well shut the academy down.

It means he's bog standard. Not excelling in anything.

He was one of the best central midfielders in the league playing under Koeman in 14/15, hence the £28m move to United.

We need a central player who can do what Schneiderlin does.

He's available and knows the manager. Ticks all of the boxes.

Yes, and look at where he;'d end up: West Brom. That's the calibre we're talking about here.

We need creativity further up the pitch. Why on earth should we spunk £20M on a player like Schneiderlin?

In you opinion what is that?

Thats why.

 

[Goat]

Notice how he moves forward
Notice how he passes forward

Then tell me we have another midfielder bar Besic that does that.

Robles - Forster
Alcaraz - Van Dijk
McCarthy - Schniderlin
Kone - Depay

Going back to the players you used to work with. See the pattern...we all know who we want.

 

[davek]

Thats why.

All I'm seeing there are clips from two games he had a stormer in.

Youtube clips. Pfffft.

Yeah forgive me, but im gonna struggle to get the 38 games he played in that season.

If youve got a time machine we can go back and watch them together if you want?

Living down south I had a saints season ticket a couple of seasons ago. He is a good player but don't think he offers much more then and in form McCarthy. He is not a progressive passer so is one of those that can slow the play down which is why I think he has been found out a bit at United. We are desperate for creative players. We are really struggling to trasnsition effectively from Midfield to attack.
