🚨I grew up in the era where Luis Nani was seen as “mid,” and now I’m expected to rate Sancho, Antony, and Garnacho?
Nani was a hard-working, useful player who still got hammered for “inconsistency” (and yeah, sometimes he was). Nobody cared about his confidence, whether he needed an overlapping full-back, or if he was better as an inside forward.
In 2010/11, he put up 28 G/A in 33 PL games as a midfielder and still got slated as the most inconsistent player in the squad.
Now, players with worse numbers get a laundry list of excuses. Standards have fallen, but it’s no shock — most United fans online have never even seen us win the league. #MUFC
Mbeumo DOUBLED his goal tally out of his npxG (15npG out of 7.5npxG).
The odds of that happening are 1% or 2%.
He was an xG underperformer in all previous seasons.
Utd are buying last season’s 2 biggest npxG/G anomalies - paying peak value money.
He’s also 26 in August.
All the eggs in the Europa League basket to deliver THAT in the final? You’ve chucked every league game for THAT? I’m so gone. I’m crashing out here, I’m sorry but the pan has spilled here, I’m beyond boiling point.
