This. Fans need to understand that an interim like RR is not allowed to just drop players like Maguire & Rashford.
Commercials dictates that these United DNA players must play. And even if you drop them, who are you going to play in place of Rashford? Martial's gone. Greenwood's finished. Lingard's almost gone. Mata's legs have gone. And you are left with academy prospects who you cannot just throw into the Premier League. RR has to play within the allowable guidelines that is set by the club. As interim, he cannot even bring in a player he needs (Zakaria at CDM) or let players leave who don't want to be here (Lingard who was blocked by the Board).
Van De Beek's performance? Most passes. Most tackles. Most touches. Most aerial duels won. Most possession in the middle of the pitch.
I started watching Everton games from last week for one reason and one reason only. Donny Van De Beek.
The interim manager u are talking, is not just interim manager.
He is going to be in management 4 months later.
Contract signed. Ya, consultant or whatever.
If he also can't drop either one, then no future manager can do it.
Provided most fans won't be fans of other clubs, so should we just stop watching football?
By the way, if by dropping those players, can come out results with wins streak.
And play them again to show the board and the world how bad they are.
And in the end secured CL place, then that will be an answer to the board.
I agree the board is money focusing, like to play politics.
That is why if RR can't even convince the board to let him drop at least Captain, by using theory of CL commercial $ value vs UK players $ value.
Then why we even need him in the board 4 months later.
It prove he is not good in politics either.
And even moron know Maguire value has dropped to the floor. He become a laughing stock for the world.
CL commercial $ value vs laughing stock $ value.
The baord like power and politics, but it is not they are moron.
Stop those management conspiracy theory.
RR is nowhere a top manager, that is a fact.
VDB is another proof, no more than 10 mins in the eyes of RR.
Not even a start, not even 30 mins even when Pogba + McTom (Fred) is injured.
He would rather use Matic + McTom (Fred).
If he can make VDB another world class Superstar who generate big commercial $ value with low salary.
The board will be more than happy.
