Daniel Agger has admitted that he is frustrated by Roy Hodgson’s style of play at Liverpool.
The attack-minded defender will be eager to forget his brief cameo at Old Trafford yesterday after failing to prevent the cross that led to Dimitar Berbatov’s winning goal just two minutes after he had replaced Paul Konchesky at left-back.
Agger, who was also left out of the starting line-up against Birmingham City last weekend, has lifted the lid on his frustrations behind Hodgson’s approach to games and has refused to alter his natural game despite fears that it could see him overlooked for a regular place in the side.
"The manager's philosophy is that we play football in attack, but not at the back. That's not my style," he told Sporten.dk
“I'm not that type of player. I like to keep the ball on the ground, and that's what I'll keep doing. Time will show if he [Hodgson] doesn't want to play me because of that".
"I'll try to change myself, but I will never be a player who offloads the ball at every opportunity."
"I'll fight for my chance. I know what I stand for, and I think he [Hodgson] does too".

A disgrace to what supposed to a good(if not great) match.... Most of that were ridiculous....
I will just pick few...
The one where he hold his face like he just got a big nice slap from his gf who dump him.
Next, the one poulsen push into him and he acted as if a lorry just knocked into him... Brilliant...Should be up there nominated for Oscar award or smth...
Lastly, the one in the box, I dont think Agger even touch him and there, he falls like an invisible hand just dragged him down...
Great actor... From Ronaldo , Rooney to Nani, Fergie got a hand in training up actors that good for Oscar award...Bet that must be why he bought them in the first place, potential of acting above footballing reason.

Spot on. Players like him deserve to be yellow-carded and fined by FA. Disgrace to football.
no wonder, i kept wondering why skrtel is picked ahead of agger n my best was the former is more of a no nonsence kind of def like carra. but i'd like to see agger playing alongside carra once again, as we seem out of sorts at the back. now, i'm getting very frustrated with fans that have no idea what YNWA stands for, making jokes n fun of that.. i meant the manu fans.

+1
its very disturbing to the eyes of the natural for such an act..drogba, ronaldo, gerrard all have been blamed for diving as well..but nothing beat this guy..its like 6-7 dives in a match..its EPIC..
Maybe thats the reason why a Carragher and Skrytel partnership is kept from the first game. And why maybe Agger was chosen to be at LB considering he likes those runs.
I see some ppl tring to make a conclusion on us just on some funny statement,
whatever it is.. quoting from other threads (rival thread especially) was a wrongdoing..
you should understand how deep their wound.. things they have been whined about after the defeat :
1 - Nani playacting - This ons is true true 2 - Vida flying - I don't think so 3 - WC 2010 Final Ref decision over JOS act - Never think of that 4 - 3rd goal should not exist (considering JOS should be red carded b4) - Very good theory assumption 5 - SAF words to the linesman - Don't really see on this match 6 - Man Utd is no way if not because of Berba - Another funny assumption
Things they ignore/forget :
1 - Konchesky made a several big impact challenge against nani - Big impact? I would say tofu Nani 2 - Carra really pull vidic's shirt - Really? 3 - To thank JOS to made a challenge over Torres. If not, the ball easily stop by VDS, thus no free kick by stevie G - Then Man U should thank JOS. We never thank opponent. Why not thank our defence never mark Berba well? So no goals for ManU? 4 - Their 1st goal should not exist if Jonny Evans didnt do that clumsy challenge. - Same theory, if Berba is well mark no goal for Manu, ended a goal less draw. 5 - RH was too soft. Perhaps, he know how to respect SAF. Ermm.. they even said SAF was actually really too scared of Fat Spanish.. LOL - Normal, if can't take it just keep quite. SAF too did the same thing as well. 6 - Liverpoor is so so so poor without Gerrard and maybe Torres. - When w/o Gerrard and Torres?
I wonder why ppl can't make a solid theory, same for some our fans. What I see the match is, 1) Nani aka actor 2) Our bad defenders not really playing up to mark. Basically our defence tactic is quite ok, only think some our defenders never really cover their area well, most of them are running out of position. 3) Our attacking not very good link up. Only Ngog came in, there is some good running. Cole did a good run which his passing Torres result the free kick. correct if I am wrong.
i think we don play torres up front alone anymore.. he should give someone to back him up. ngog can be a holding striker and also can be a runner. he is the best to suit with torres now.
i really wonder where is the 'new manager' syndrome? so our players dont get it? why our play is still the same like last season? change of manager but things stay the same, whats the point? if they are so much similar, i would prefer rafa, at least he would take a swipe at SAF
