Rashford and Haaland Nominated for Premier League player of the season

Published

The Premier League player of the season contenders have been announced. They include Manchester City players, Kevin de Bruyne and Erling Haaland.

Tottenham’s Harry Kane and Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford also make the shortlist.

I’m a die hard United fan but the fact that Haaland smashed several records in his debut season are the entire reason these awards exist.. If you don’t give it to him with what he’s done, nobody else deserves it, not even close.

Basically Rashford set the bar low the last few seasons and now he’s scored more this season suddenly people think he’s better than he is!

SPORTSFILA can’t believe that Salah isn’t on the list and Rashford is 😮 they are both nearly on the same points in terms on table position but individually Salah has 19 goals with 10 assists and Rashford has 16 goals with 5 assists.

Rashford’s 29 goals in all competitions — a haul that includes just one penalty — is his personal best by a distance and the most in a single season by any United player during the post-Alex Ferguson era. If this award were judged on sheer output, Rashford would win it hands down. Fernandes (11) is the only other player to break double figures this term.

It is Rashford’s post-World Cup form that has powered him to this award, specifically a midwinter run of 17 goals in 19 appearances that included a winner away to Wolves after sleeping in on New Year’s Eve, a goal at the Camp Nou, another in a Wembley cup final victory and a new, briefly-viral goal celebration.

Congrats: Guardiola 100% Going to Win Champions League with Haaland

Before you say anything, yes SportsFila.com is a huge Man United faN.

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has been nominated for the 2022/23 Premier League Player of the Season award.

The England international, 25, has enjoyed a stellar campaign in Erik ten Hag’s first season in charge at Old Trafford, scoring 29 goals in all competitions. He has played a key role in the Reds’ resurrection under the Dutchman and is just one goal away from becoming the first United player to score 30 goals in a single season since Robin van Persie exactly a decade ago.

Rashford, who scored three times for England at the World Cup in Qatar, has enjoyed the best campaign of his career to date. He has been United’s go-to man and has stepped up time and time again.

Of his 29 goals, 16 of them have come in the Premier League, meaning only five players have scored more than him in the division this season. He has also chipped in with five league assists, meaning he has directly contributed to 21 of United’s 51 league goals this term.

What went wrong for Real Madrid in Champions League?

Picking Manchester United’s player of the year each season over the past decade has either meant selecting the one outstanding candidate who is clearly head and shoulders above the rest or scratching around for a single squad member worthy of the prize.

You do not have to think too far back to the days when David de Gea would be the only viable choice, being named the Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year four times between 2014 and 2018. More recently, Bruno Fernandes has taken De Gea’s place as the default choice with back-to-back wins in 2020 and 2021.

Gareth Southgate to Manchester United Doesnt’ Make Sense

Published

on

There is NO REASON for Gareth Southgate to be linked with the Manchester United job

Gareth Southgate is the only person in the Universe who can turn Manchester United into Middlesbrough within no time

The English media is trying all their best to push Southgate to united, but he is championship level manager at best

The England national team is waay better than this Manu squad, and he has had 0 success ( reaching semis ain’t success). So what exactly are people expecting if he becomes Manu boss

Absolutely no way! Why would Man U hire Southgate? That would be the worse decision in the history of the game.

ETH outwitted Klopp last weekend in one of the best and most dramatic FA cup clashes in years and I’m sorry but Southgate would not have won that game and ETH has had to deal with Ronaldo, Sancho, Greenwood and so on, he deserves more time

I have been saying this for weeks now. If United were under any other manager especially Southgate, they would be fighting for relegation right now. The problem at United is not Ten Hag but the players.

People keep saying that Ten Hag’s style of football at United is not attractive and no identity but there is so much that a manager can do if the players themselves are not good enough or not putting enough effort. Ten Hag’s Ajax were playing attractive football and he managed to get them to the SF of the CL.

Without him, look at Ajax now. And the media keep pushing their agenda to get Ten Hag sack and replace him with a much worse manager like Southgate. If Ten Hag is managing England right now, with the players they have, we won’t see such a passive football like we saw yesterday vs Brazil. Ask Liverpool fans, would they replace Klopp with Southgate? I rest my case.

Liverpool blame themselves for FA Cup loss to Man United

Liverpool only have themselves to blame for loss to Manchester United. Had to find a way to squeeze in the random Bruno slag off in between. Dude was dead on his feet at full time, and had to slot in to center back for the last 30 minutes.

SportsFila reflect on Manchester United’s 4-3 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup Quarterfinals and look ahead to the semifinals where Erik ten Hag’s side will take on Coventry.

How come everybody seems to have forgotten that 2 of LFC’s goals were pure luck?

More shots, same shots on goal, higher goal expectancy. What is this narrative that Liverpool should have put this game away, if anything we should’ve put this game away! They had a good 20, 25 minute stint where they kept the ball in the second half, but did nothing with it, we deservedly won this game.

For Liverpool fans: don’t say that we lost to Manchester United because Jota Trent Alisson and jones didn’t play. We have to stop doing that every time a team loses a big game it’s very stupid because had you won, you wouldn’t be saying that. Don’t forget that when y’all drew 0-0 to them at home Trent Alisson and Jones started. Keep in mind how well they’ve been playing despite having lots of injuries they almost beat Manchester City’s full strength squad last week.

Also, you lose to Manchester United, 2 fringe players for them decided the game for them, Liverpool didn’t play well and a loss is a loss you have to accept it otherwise you’re a sole loser and are unwilling to take it.

It’s interesting how nothing much is said about the mistakes made by Liverpool, but all criticism is piled on Bruno; how supposedly poor he was.

Ten Hag Says Man United Are on Track

Published

Ten Hag claims United is moving in the right direction 👀 WHAT DIRECTION IS THAT?!

Every time he speaks after a dismal performance after the match I always sit there saying to myself “What on Earth are you talking about”.

The media trying so hard to get ETH sacked…..when liverpool had bad injuries with VVD out, y’all didnt have the same energy

Most fans want ETH out because of his poor tactics and substitutions. I also felt he should be braver to drop non-performing players irrespective of names, and even play academy players if he has to.

Now I’m ETH in because I realise from Rooney’s and Ole’s recent interviews that the mentality of these players are incredibly low and it’s no longer just speculation that the players can’t cope on this stage.

I can understand ETH saying positive things and coming off as “crazy” but if you have players who are weak minded and aren’t willing to fight, you can’t be tough cos they’ll cave and where does that leave you for the rest of the season?! Jason Sancho case in point. I rather come across as insane to the media but hope that I’m lifting the team enough to get a string of performances to save my job and give the fans at least something to cheer about until I can have a summer clear out.

 

Keane is a freaking legend but that approach with these weak players will kill them and ETH would lose the dressing room.

This man keeps dropping off bombs on and off the field..A gift that keeps on giving..Most delulu man on this green earth
What a GIFT! Hand him a 15 years contract and 5 years add ons

The problem for Utd in recruiting an elite manager in the Summer is that Liverpool, Bayern and Barca will also be looking for new managers.

From the moment I heard “A new era begins. .” from ETH. I knew it was the joke of the century. He has the guts to say it while Klopp/Guardiola are competing against each other by 1 point in the Primer league he acted like he can compete with them ro
