    He is showing signs of improvement to me. Looks far better in that wide left role. If we could get him some confidence I think he'd improve again. Not saying we will end up with a good player, but I don't think he has ever shown is best self yet. I don't want to make too many excuses but there is hope he can get better if nothing else.

    Definitely improved but some people take far too long to get over it.

    Manquillo was an example he's actually a vert solid rb and has been a good few years, but he still gets hated on.

    Joelinton is definitely a lefty and he rarely ever has played there.

    Joelinton does done absolutely ****e things and some good things

    He seems to be getting regular assists and he is really the only one who can act as a target man, although the ball often doesn’t stick well enough.

    His finishing is abysmal and will never get any better. Its not confidence, its lack of technique.

    Bottom line is we have no one to replace him so may as well stick with him.

    No not quite.. Just sometimes the person that creates the chance or plays the biggest part doesn't get the official assist.

    He's a frustrating player, but of you asked their full back of he had problems he's say he was a handful.

    Fans me included at times in most cases only motive the eye catching things like dreadful shots and failed through balls.

    I think players like Hayden for example me never try to take anyone on or play a telling pass.

    Joelinton is creating chances and having shots. Miggy had one opportunity and he air kicked the ball.

    He was assaulted yes but I’m not seeing any end product. Stats don’t lie mate.

    He created no chances as a cm that I can recall. You slated longstaff and quite rightly so. But what is Miggy bringing right now?

    Honest question because I can see Joe at least bringing something.

    And Miggy isn’t a CM so why the **** is Bruce playing him there?

    Almiron created the chance at old Trafford... He was outstanding last night... He wins the ball countless times... I noticed the drop the minute he was off.. Fraser did **** all on or off the ball.. Zero.

    Because Bruce is a crap manager

    I don’t want to comment on Fraser as I think he’s not trying. He’s not a good player but he is better than what we are seeing.
