It's Agbonlahor saying it not United FFS.

World Cup winner Raphael Varane? That Varane?

Ooooooh here comes the buyers remorse.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I thought he was going to be fantastic, surprised how it turned out

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

He was great for them.... Buyers remorse?

The title of this article is completely different from the actual content in the article. The article is about an old Aston Villa player saying how poor Varane and Case have been.

There really should be more vetting when it comes to articles that are allowed to be posted here.

But its always a race here to post the latest article on United

Such a bs misleading headline to stir the pot! It’s said by a gossip town podcaster, nothing to see here

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

This is not the opinion of anyone at the club, this is just ramblings of a fucking idiot. Gabby Agbonlahor of the shitrag that is TalkSport. And some quotes from Scholes as well.

As for the actual premise, it is ridiculous to suggest that a buyer club can be "deceived" when it comes to a player that has played a shitload of games for the seller club. We didn't buy Varane because someone told us he was good, we bought him because his quality was evident. No one was "deceived", that's just TalkSport being the shitrag that it's always been.

Now, I do agree that he isn't exactly a leader, or a transformative player like van Dijk or Diaz, but he is damn good when he's in form and in the right partnership, we saw it last season.

There is a reason Maguire-Varane isn't a pairing we see often: it doesn't really work. This is why Maguire-Evans has been our go-to in the absence of Martinez.

Don’t remember all of this talk about Varane when United finished with the most clean sheets in the PL last season.

Yeah making fun of United and their scouting is fun, but it’s a bit of an overreaction considering the entire team is underperforming right now.

Honestly noone should be buying big names from Madrid, they seem like masters at getting rid of players at the right time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Man United, where players go to die.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Baseless dribble like this gets upvoted because people want to believe due to Utd being in the mid at the moment. Genuine cringe headlines made for clicks and nerds for falling for it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That's just the man united effect.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

In FM, before buying an important player, I check their injury history. If a nobody like me can take 5 minutes to check something like that then Maybe United should, you know, check on small things like that before buying. Do the diligent work.

I wouldn't buy Neymar for example. I don't care how good he is. I need my players to actually be able to play at like 85% of my matches.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Hahahhahaahaaha pre retirement vacation for our players hahhahahaha

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Talkshite back at it again.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Should've put 'according to Gabriel Agbonlahor' in the title, so we all could've saved our time and ignored this article.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

well maybe you deserve it for clicking it despite it being from the clowns at talkshite my friend!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Varane was declining already with Madrid - they often sell a season or two before it really happens

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Put some respect on Jonny Evans’ back-up’s name.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

How does this work? Do they not have scouts and ask clubs 'nicely' how much their players are worth? Its not like real manipulated his stats or anything.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The problem with Rapha is his best games are past him already ,not that he's not good anymore .

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I would say United deceived themselves into buying Varane

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Aother Papa Perez masterclass, he had Varane in his prime and decided to sell him the moment his performance started to decline.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The thing is some players benefit from playing alongside world class players and it makes them look better than they really are. Id say Varane was a solid player, anyone who expected him to be world class is insane. Same thing with Casemiro

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Delete this shite, it’s clickbaity and misleading. Plus it’s from TalkSport, so it doesn’t deserve anyone’s attention.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

lmao this is a tiktok level title

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Talksport ya right!!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

His performances dropped this season, maybe he is past his peak or his motivation is just too low at the moment

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Fuck off did they. They were clowning on everyone saying they've signed the best defender in the world and they're winning everything?

Captain Hindsight strikes again.
