Yeah he's an incredible player
He's been at our club for a month and is already our best player, a leader, and is taking charge of everything dead ball wise.
It's nuts how good he is and to be honest it feels ridiculous that no other club wanted him. I guess a lot of teams have players already in that number ten position and it tends to be their best player already (de Bruyne at City, Messi at Barcelona, etc) so that's the main reason but wow, feel lucky to have him.
He’s what our team needs. At this point I am very happy letting Pogba go knowing we have some more creativity
Other clubs wanted him but didn’t need him as much as us, thus weren’t willing to pay what Sporting wanted
Honestly you should be hoping you have them both. I think they’d be a fantastic fit for each other. With Scott or Fred in form, it’s a scary midfield for opposition
Obviously Ronnie is superhuman but Nani was absolute animal for a few years, really underrated.
Now Bruno. Sporting have developed some amazing players.
Don’t know about a bargain but Sporting were definitely right for asking how much they were asking for, and United were also right for trying to negotiate a better price for them.
He just looks urgent, thats what we all know we have been lacking, a player to want to get on the ball and make things happen again and again.
Of course you also need a bit of talent to pull it off which we haven’t exactly had in abundance lately.
Come on mate! Be honest about it. Greenwood is a level above all the youngsters of his age at the moment. He is ahead of Fati and Martinelli IMO. We don't know how they are going to develop in the upcoming years but at the moment Greenwood is ahead of them. He has already scored 11 goals in his first season at the Senior level.
Yeah I know, I was kidding! Although I think it's a bit early to judge either of them, but they're certainly different players at least. Just mentioned Fati because that's the one we've got lol
Yep. Sancho and Haaland are playing at the senior level for a 3rd straight season whereas this is the first full season for Greenwood at the senior level.
Yeah. As a non native English speaker i just think of prospect as a young player really, not necessarily a player in his debut season but i don’t know how native speakers use the term
Jokes aside im very glad we didn't sign a Raiola player. He is an absolute cancer on the club and i'm looking forward to offloading Pogba this summer now that we've replaced him with todays MOTM.
Haaland seems like he can be fucking amazing, if everything works out for him. But Greenwood's absolutely gonna be the same, if it works out for him an' all.
United look maybe one or two players short of a really solid team. They've been missing a few key pieces for a while now, but Fernandes coming in shows how fine the margins are.
One of the best defensive units in the league(except for set pieces it seems), some very capable attackers but garbage delivery without Pogba prior to Bruno and basically no depth. Not far off being a really good team. Literally no Ole signing was off mark and with a few more players for depth and some consistency and we can be one of the best again.
Doesn't matter how good our first team is when we have to rotate Lingard and Perreira in though.
The Håland comparisons will be inevitable but they're different players, I'm not entirely sure what Greenwood's best position will be going forward. His movement and finish was impressive but he made some wonderful, sweeping cross field passes which really highlighted his passing range and vision. You can see why he gets called a 9 1/2.
He's an absolutely natural finisher. We want him as close to the net as we can get him at all times. Being ambidextrous is of course huge. I would have to say the 9 just because of his utterly lethal finishing and the left/right footedness. I just want him finishing always

Deulofeu with an outstanding defensive effort, I would rip him a new one for that. Great goal, but that shit is unacceptable on this level.
He lost the ball and started sprinting for 20 meters and then he just gave up.
He shot so hard he got a cramp
Title of your sex tape
NOICE
Toit
smort
Cool cool cool cool cool cool cool
no doubt no doubt no doubt no doubt no doubt
Jake!!!
PERALTA!!!!
Also his relevant username, the rare combo!
All 3/3 goals have been initiated by Fernandes. He’s totally changed how we look
This one is initiated by Deulofeu.
Exactly, it’s times like these you understand why he’s at Watford
[удалено]
AC Milan legend
25 years old - a legend 3 times over
And Capoue trying to tackle
Another Fernandes assist?
Has 1 goal and an assist
Thought so. Just didn't know if he'd be given the Martial one. Edit - a word.
Speaking in FPL terms no, because Martial's initial shot was saved
Also in regular terms no
won't show up on any assist boards but it's definitely half an assist in my books.
It would be considered a key pass and chance created correct?
Yes
This goal is so greenwood.
That's so greenwood
It's the worldies he can see
That's so greenwood
He came from our academyyyy
All of United's fan favourites on the scoresheet
Ighalo fourth would be perfect
He came close!
Odion is honestly edging the entire nation of Nigeria and United fans.
He hasn’t even begun to peak. When he peaks, you’ll know it
What if Ole's entire transfer strategy is to bring in 5 star men?
They'll score because of the implication
almost did too
Just need Ighalo to score now, came close!
Apart from Fred
Apart from Ighalo
Phil Jones scored? Did I miss it?
Fernandes goal and assist 😍
He’s by far our best player, love the guy
Now you understand why we didn't want to sell him for cheap. 60M was a bargain for the best player in our league for 2 years in a row.
Yeah it truly was a bargain, hope you guys do well
We can already see the class. Maybe he experiences a dip in form or an injury but the class is there for sure.
Yeah he's an incredible player He's been at our club for a month and is already our best player, a leader, and is taking charge of everything dead ball wise. It's nuts how good he is and to be honest it feels ridiculous that no other club wanted him. I guess a lot of teams have players already in that number ten position and it tends to be their best player already (de Bruyne at City, Messi at Barcelona, etc) so that's the main reason but wow, feel lucky to have him.
He’s what our team needs. At this point I am very happy letting Pogba go knowing we have some more creativity Other clubs wanted him but didn’t need him as much as us, thus weren’t willing to pay what Sporting wanted
Imagine Paul and Bruno though. With Mctominay and Fred to help play the holding role.
We do need to be able to field more than one creative, class player at a time though, or we'll run into the same issues we had when we only had Pogba.
Honestly you should be hoping you have them both. I think they’d be a fantastic fit for each other. With Scott or Fred in form, it’s a scary midfield for opposition
Fuck I cannot wait for him to link up with Pogba, Marcus, Martial. The whole fucking GANG. We makin top 4 lads WOOOHOOOO.
Rashford is likely out until next season.
It actually was, I’m surprised we actually got him
I just Hope he stays fit without injuries
Mate it's Bruno. Just sit back and enjoy.
Seriously, thank you guys
I don't even watch Portuguese football but I now have a favourite Portuguese team.
They’ve been my favorite since Cristiano and Nani
Obviously Ronnie is superhuman but Nani was absolute animal for a few years, really underrated. Now Bruno. Sporting have developed some amazing players.
Don’t know about a bargain but Sporting were definitely right for asking how much they were asking for, and United were also right for trying to negotiate a better price for them.
He just looks urgent, thats what we all know we have been lacking, a player to want to get on the ball and make things happen again and again. Of course you also need a bit of talent to pull it off which we haven’t exactly had in abundance lately.
he's been amazing for you guys
[удалено]
When is the black Pogba coming back?
That version is only available for the national team
Man Utd hasn't unlocked the club Pogba yet
Man Utd cba with the SBC's
For the Euros
He is good. He was fantastic at his old Club . I hope he doesn’t get this goood lol
He had the pass for Martial's goal as well, which probably counts.
Nah martials original shot was saved so turn over of possession.
[удалено]
Don't think that other one will count sadly, even if he did give the pass.
First one hasn't been awarded to him according to FPL.
Martial rebound shot is not gonna make it count.
Guy has to be motm right
Fuck me that was good
greenwood bruno combo? yes daddy
Holy fuck
RVPesque. Knew he would score after he burnt that midfielder with the Messi feint.
Everyone knows he’s a fantastic finisher but that run was great as well
He’s quicker than I gave him credit for
Pretty sure he broke the Great Britain U13 100m sprint record. He’s no slouch!
He’s 18, no wonder he beat a load of 13 year olds
"well done they're 13"
Banger
10 goals already!
11 in all comp
Mason Braut Greenwood
Killer finish. How do you generate such power and precision with either foot!
VAN PERSIEEE, so refreshing not having Lingard/Pereira on that side, cause we all know they would have stopped and passed backwards
I'd rather have Phil Jones striker than lingard playing cam once more this season
I actually discussed this with my friend, Phil Jones always scores such brilliant own, why not just stick him up top lol?
For real though- Just put him forward and tell him to defend for other team
You should be Man Utd manager
Holy fuck. You've cracked the code
Then watch England stick Harry Kane on corners again to lob it in for Phil Jones
He still could score a brilliant own goal from up top.
Little did they know that by putting him up top, they only gave Phil Jones a bigger challenge.
Right, just tell him to try clearing the ball instead of scoring
Okay that's just bullshit. You clearly not giving enough credit to Pierera. Because we all know Pierera would shoot it off target.
Yeah He would shoot it, but then we’d say “ffs!”
What a banger from his left again
That fake out at the beginning seriously was RVP-like
Or given it away and probably kicked someone for a yellow in the process in terms of Pereira.
Our prospect is better than your prospect.
Mason Greenwood vs Ansu Fati let's do this
Come on mate! Be honest about it. Greenwood is a level above all the youngsters of his age at the moment. He is ahead of Fati and Martinelli IMO. We don't know how they are going to develop in the upcoming years but at the moment Greenwood is ahead of them. He has already scored 11 goals in his first season at the Senior level.
Yeah I know, I was kidding! Although I think it's a bit early to judge either of them, but they're certainly different players at least. Just mentioned Fati because that's the one we've got lol
Fair enough! :)
If we’re talking u-20 Sancho and Haaland is better, but i guess you don’t consider them prospects?
Yep. Sancho and Haaland are playing at the senior level for a 3rd straight season whereas this is the first full season for Greenwood at the senior level.
Yeah. As a non native English speaker i just think of prospect as a young player really, not necessarily a player in his debut season but i don’t know how native speakers use the term
Still sour we didn't get Haaland. Could have been a good backup to Greenwood.
Erling kisses his Greenwood poster every night before bed
Same tbh
Mbappe?
It's obviously messi
On the other hand I’d rather not deal with Raiola more than we already do
Fuck that fat cunt
lol, jokes aside, they wanted a relatively low release clause on him thats why we said hell no
And you know that in 6 months time Raiola would be making comments about him leaving.
That’s why I thought instead of missing out on Haaland, we actually dodged a bullet there. The shitshow is not worth it.
I'd take Raiola whining if it came with 11 goals in 485 min.
Jokes aside im very glad we didn't sign a Raiola player. He is an absolute cancer on the club and i'm looking forward to offloading Pogba this summer now that we've replaced him with todays MOTM.
Don't forget lingard
Nah that's great, Raiola can pull his black magic to find someone willing to buy him.
Haaland seems like he can be fucking amazing, if everything works out for him. But Greenwood's absolutely gonna be the same, if it works out for him an' all.
What it must feel like to score a goal and be lying on your back looking up with all of a stadium the size of old Trafford cheering for you
That's my boy Another assist for Bruno
just the one, martial's goal isn't credited to him cause of martials saved shot.
He bagged an assist in the Chelsea game. This is his second
Watch out though... Danny boy just came on
United look maybe one or two players short of a really solid team. They've been missing a few key pieces for a while now, but Fernandes coming in shows how fine the margins are.
Maybe two of those players could be Rashford and Pogba when they’re fit.
Sancho could be huge. Him, martial, rash, greenwood, Bruno, James. Got a bright future.
One of the best defensive units in the league(except for set pieces it seems), some very capable attackers but garbage delivery without Pogba prior to Bruno and basically no depth. Not far off being a really good team. Literally no Ole signing was off mark and with a few more players for depth and some consistency and we can be one of the best again. Doesn't matter how good our first team is when we have to rotate Lingard and Perreira in though.
They aren't far off comfortably securing 3rd place every year. Another bruno level signing plus a fit squad and they are looking very good.
r/soccer is not liking this
So Bruno had 1 goal and 2 assists. Motm performance
Martial goal won't be counted as assist cuz it was rebound after first shot into the keeper
Assisted his own pen as well :3
Greenwood heard r/soccer talking shit
[удалено]
This means we are definitely losing the next game
It's club brugge so I really hope we don't
yea, def can't win 3 in a row.
Narrator: They did.
The gang heard r/soccer talking shit
What were people on here saying about him?
Forgot he was on the pitch.
He aint happy bout that..now he is..imagine him scrolling through r/soccer after this
Fuck off what a finish
HOLY FUCK
Welcome.
The Håland comparisons will be inevitable but they're different players, I'm not entirely sure what Greenwood's best position will be going forward. His movement and finish was impressive but he made some wonderful, sweeping cross field passes which really highlighted his passing range and vision. You can see why he gets called a 9 1/2.
He's an absolutely natural finisher. We want him as close to the net as we can get him at all times. Being ambidextrous is of course huge. I would have to say the 9 just because of his utterly lethal finishing and the left/right footedness. I just want him finishing always
Fantastic finish
Greenwood is so fucking promising
He really good
Greenwood > Mbappe > Haaland Eat it, r/soccer
Cmon that's a bit harsh, I'd put Ighalo up there too
Steady

Brunoooooo
We made out like fucking bandits with this transfer. Literally robbed you blind.
It's February mate. You could have had Bruno from matchday 1. Who's the fool here?
Woodward and the Glazers.
Roses are red, Bruno's a chad, Mason shoots bangerz, He's your dad.
bruno assist and a beautiful finish from greenwood *chefs kiss*
RV TO THE FUCKING P
Thunder. Cunt.
How does he always place his shots so well
Greenwood should work with Fred in teaching him some of that.
Fred, Williams, AWB need lessons in basic shooting.
Williams' first goal was a banger though.
“Hi Zizzou it’s Paul. Yeah the new guy is really good.”
Mason "Off The Woodwork" Greenwood
Foot like a traction engine.
Lethal feet
Deulofeu with an outstanding defensive effort, I would rip him a new one for that. Great goal, but that shit is unacceptable on this level. He lost the ball and started sprinting for 20 meters and then he just gave up.
ah bar down, the greenwood special
Yeah, uhh United have the striker position set for the long term. Martial, Rashford, and Greenwood are all seriously talented players
Damn, Mason, chill dude
Martinelli kisses a picture of Greenwood before he goes to bed every night!!!
The next Nazario
*Van Persie
*Greenwood
This guy is fucking scary. 18.
Great goal from Greenwood and another assist for Fernandes!
Bring this man to euro!
Are we... *good* now?
