#ManchesterUnited #JoshuaZirkzee #Zirkzee - Спорт
Sounds like the perfect replacement for Martial. BTW - it is not about how many goals he scores, but about how many goals he is involved in.
Bullocks! Why do Manchester United fans do this…..this fanbase slated Martial for lack of goals but somehow we are now okay with a low-scoring forward. I’ll believe it when I see it
@@KC-lt7iw martial is slated due to his inconsistency and injury
@KC-lt7iw Martial was slated injury, inconsistency and lack of effort. He had a season or two where he wasn't injured and was consistent and scored enough goals we accepted his low effort. Its a bit different, zirkzee is by all accounts a hard worker, has a good injury record and does enough outside of scoring goals unlike martial
@@KC-lt7iwfact.. If zirkzee does the same as Martial..
They would celebrate him😂
I noticed it last season… Everyone mentioned how Hojlund received the least passes among PL strikers.. no one mentioned that Martial received the 2nd least per game 🤦🏾♂️
@@Akeem-uk6pl If your argument is based on Martial last season alone then you've lost the argument. Injuries, effort and attitude go a long way for fans opinion. Hojlund also had the best shot conversion % last season. Also Martial was on 250k a week.
I would be gassed to see Rasmus and Zirkzee on the field at the same time can’t wait for that game
Really? Why ? It’s not like they r mbappe and Vinicius junior
I m not excited about this Zirkzee guy
We will struggle next year with these two
@@winoo3610 well I’m optimistic and when you’re optimistic you don’t really expect to struggle but remember it’s a possibility 🫠
@@winoo3610 your opinion. Also, try not to share it too often.
@@winoo3610that is because u don't watch more football.
I was just about to say this, like an old school Dwight Yorke type of role (SS) just behind Rasmus would work a treat. Maybe in place of Bruno to give him a rest from time to time.
People also forgetting that RVN started as a number 10 and became a striker. So that might help with the coaching.
Ruud started a Winger.
@@mrsastre9404 Not in the pro game at least, maybe in the youth. Den Bosch, Heerenveen and first season PSV was number 10.
I think he's an exciting player who is going to get better. We suffered last season from a lack of creativity going forward, we were at times very predictable and easy to defend against. This issue also meant that Hojlund dropped out of position a lot to get the ball and Rashford didn’t get the ball in good positions as he did the previous year.
If Zirkzee can get regular games and adapt to the premier league he could be the very player to solve a lot of our issues. And if he does do well, this will help drive the team forward.
Secondly, getting Ruud back is genius. He can pass on so much experience to all the players and not just the forwards. I also see Ethan Wheatley improving under Ruud, and Amad too so bring it on!
Everyone is all about hojlund,but i feel this is when you will see Amad Diallo taking the premier league like a storm..coming in of Zirkzee would give Amad the ability to run in behind defences..
Amad plays more in between the lines, zirkzee would defo be useful for Rashford and garnacho though
Zirkzee with Amad and garnacho for the low blocks, Hojlund with Rashford and Amad/garnacho for the high lines.
@@lancerevo9747 Hojlund and rashford don't work together, Rashford would be better playing with Zirkzee, he's similar to Martial
@@user-dz9gk1dj3x but that's exactly what I wrote.
The main point I see is that Zirkzee, Amad, Rasmus, Rashford and Garnacho give the squad different options.
Finally Five things 🙌
Ruud was a monster Ste.. He flung defenders around the place.
Zirkzee is better then ruud and one the best strikers in the world 💯
@@mohammedhussain977hahahahaha
@@mohammedhussain977tell me you know nothing about football without actually telling me
Rashford will massively benefit from playing with Zirkzee
Rashford would massively benefit froma kick up the hole
@@dor843088 I don’t disagree
Will Zirzkee benefit tho? I would rather play Garna and Diallo as starting wingers. Rashford should be 3 choice as is his level
@@yourguyin2554 Zirkzee plays deep which will draw defenders and leave space for the wide players with pace to run into, Rashford had that with Martial or Weghorst when he had his good seasons. Zirkzee is also a pass first striker looking for his teammates, so yes it would benefit him also. Dialo will be better with Hojlund as he doesn’t really attack the space behind the defence, he’s more of a ball to feet winger.
@@nephilim811 Replace Rashy with Garna. Rashford isn't the main guy. He is 3rd choice. Garna and Amad are the future
I think Zirkzee could play as that creative false 9 with 2 of Højlund Rashford, Amad & Garnacho working as split forwards
Or as a striker partnership with Garnacho, Kobbie, Ugarte (or another six) and Bruno as a midfield.
Initially i was concerned that this guy would step all over Bruno's toes but then I remembered how well Weghorst worked in the pocket. Either way, our biggest issue is feeding Hojlund more than it is shoe horning this guy in
We should move the fuck on from Brainthwaite… not even worth 45 mil to be honest
Watched his goals from last season.
Anyone else see a lot of van Nistelrooy in the way he times his shots and rounds the keeper?
Did he get coached by him somewhere?
Nope. Bayern youth teams. Loans to Anderlecht and Parma. Sold to Bologna.
Yeah hints of Van Nistelrooy v Fulham in the way Zirkzee hits some of his finishes when the keeper doesn’t expect it.
@@Hyde_Hill cheers
@@BM-qn6fg Personally I see more late career Kluivert when he became more a hybrid 10/9 only Zirkzee has more dribbling while Kluivert excelled in small spaces.
Love your content Stephen 👍
I can potentially see Zirkzee benching Rashford tbh! The fact that he's constantly looking to bring other players into play and create for the team for me Rashford will need to step his game up and not be so damn predictable when on the ball in the final third.
Could be our agile version of Bergkamp in the future 🤷🏾♂️
Zirkzee is mctominays replacement, both operate same areas of the pitch
I hope so!!!
We wanted Zirkzee last summer didn't have the cash for it.
Ste I’ve been to the euros but hardly watched any games Howson. Thats dedication!!
Every action Ruud took, the smallest movement of his body involved getting the team a goal, preferably by him.
He didn't have Ronaldo's physicality but, he was most instinctive goalscorer I've ever seen.
More distinct than RVP you think?
Play Zirkzee with runners like rashford and garnacho have Hojlund with creators like diallo could work a treat
I think everything will eventually align with a deep laying forward as bruno starts to be faded out the side i love bruno but i dont think he works in a possession based formation unless we can look at playing him deeper ?.. but he floats alot and thats his game that is literally what makes bruno bruno is that he is all action he isn’t a system player .. i struggle to see him in this side in 2-3 seasons time
Honestly, not giving up on Hojlund by any stretch, but he's not shown he's ready to be the main man, thus far. We will need at least 2 of Hojlund, Rashford, Garnacho, Amad, Mount and Zirkzee if he comes, to really have really good seasons, otherwise struggling in a fight for top 4 happens again.
Disagree - Hojlund had shown patience, persistance and strong mental fortitude during a tough infinitum stretch of not scoring - largely because he was not being serviced. If he is, he will convert. He has shown to be performing excelently against his xg.
We’re going to be in a fight for top 4 anyway next season. We’re getting stronger like everyone else is & you don’t go from 8th to contending in a year.
@@arrowzen7433 If he was playing for Spurs or Chelsea last season, with that return, we'd be laughing at them for wasting 70m. Had a really poor Euros, too. Guy still has time, but he really needs to step up. Can't help but feel he should have been the back up last year, and again this coming season.
Not sure why everyone thinks bringing in Zirkzee is a solution to hojlund's lack of experience. They've played about the same number of games but zirkzee is 2 years older. No idea why we don't go for an experienced and proven striker instead of Zirkzee.
@@kxyoto8541 Shouldn't go from 3rd to 8th, neither. As it stands we're not favourites for top 4, imo. Before you say injuries, Chelsea, Newcastle and Spurs also had really bad injuries, too, and they'll be 3 of our biggest rivals, you would expect.
On topic I could see hojlund playing from the right sometimes with Zirkzee playing false 9.
I just want us to identify our targets early and quietly and the foockin deals done quickly.
I’d love to see United have 4 cbs in.
De Ligt and Martinez
Yoro and Branthwaite.
Completely move on from other managers’ signings that were always deemed NOT good enough for United
Do what we gotta do to get the other defenders out the door.
Keep Evan’s as an example and player/coach.
I am excited for Zirkzee. I still dont understand how Mount will fit our team this season.
First sub for multiple positions. 8, 10 and both wings. As well as tactical switch ups.
If they could get this year’s amortised amount for Mount, they’d 100% sell him.
Benchwarmer. Will do a job when he is called on.
When you do, you’ll be the first one. Wasteful.
Depth
👌🏼❤️
Morning ste
Hes more no 10 than 9 and csn play on the wing . Skillful and strong lad .
Ste's dream is seeing Zirkzee scoring against England tomorrow 🤣
Off topic : when Greenwood goes, would you consider doing a video on how United have failed to guide the best young player at the club since Ravel Morrison? Pre accusations, lots of people around the boy knew of his toxic relationship and questionable behaviour. As a club we need to have more of a holistic approach - ie all psychological work etc.
We also failed to guide Ravel Morrison, sadly some people just aren't for guidance, they go their own way and that doesn't always lead to where they expect.
That perspective takes all fault away from Greenwood. It's like making a video titled "How Juventus failed to stop Paul Pogba from taking steroids".
@@BAReactions no, the attribution of blame is not a mutually exclusive proposition. Clearly, Greenwood must face up to the situation. This does not mean the club are immune from blame. football is a working class sport, where oftentimes young boys from challenging backgrounds get launched into positions of perverse power that they are not mentally equipped to deal with. I don’t believe the club got hold of Greenwood properly. His toxic relationship with his GF was known to be a problem by friends and locals. As a club we need to have a better 360 around our players, especially youngsters coming through our system.
@@Nametaken144 yes, because they clearly don't think about these things and haven't for the last 100 years or so
He is his own man who shouldn’t need a club to tell him how to conduct himself amongst society lol
I am hoping Zirkzee and Bruno can find a way to work together as they occupy some of the same spaces in the final third
I think Man united should go for 442 formation with two strikers and with two wingers
A younger and cheaper version of Toney? Seems like a similar player to me.
Was hoping zirkzee would be given some more playtime today against England today..not the extra 2 mins
I don’t think he is as good as Ste is making him out, but, the profile of the player will fit in, and with the fact that we are crying out for effort and versatility at the forward three, he’s capable of displacing someone in time.
Could we be moving to a false 9 type of front 3 where Zirkzee plays a Kane creating sort of role and instead of Garnacho on the right, it's Rasmus, he did kind of like to attack from the wing while at Atalanta and having 2 really big guys on the front and if you need to switch from Zirkzee at the 9 to Rasmus while in the middle of the game without a Sub and let Rashy do his thing on the left and not worry about at times playing the 9
Don't over expect. I hope he will start cooking and help manutd to win. But with recent signings expectation level is low.
Considering how our wingers play, he would probably have a better time then Hojlund
Bita Berba about him
you wish ...
only kidding ... berba was top tho
Ste please react on your next show to talksport claiming that Arno Slot is a better manager than Ten hag and Ten hag is very threatened by Slot's appointment
Number 1 that we sign him
He loves dinking or rounding a keeper and has s few goals from awkward angles that i dont think hed get away with in the prem but his control and physicality could make him very useful. For the price i have no complaints whatsoever but hopefully he learns a few things from RVN.
SCISSOR ME ZIRKZEE!!!
When the tours starting again ste?
No matter what kind of players we will im just wish united has more lucks than last year with less injuries players for this season haha
Why don’t Utd get Menghi back Ste he had a top season last season obviously in a limited team but they put up a great fight. Better than Branthwaite and cheaper.
Yeah buying him back for a bag of cash, after letting him go for peanuts 12 months ago......not going to happen.
Massively agree with this, surely we could get Mengi for £20 million, save £30 million on Branthwaite and then go all out for Doue and Ugarte.
Nobody else concerned that Wout was ahead of him for the Dutch?
Do you agree inacio is better than branthwate
Can play in left back, left cb, right cb even and 60 mil release clause
I think MDP & Weghorst are keeping him out of the national team and look how they performed in the Premier league
Tchoumani and Camavinga are benched for Kante and Rabiot and Kante plays in the Camel league... Internationals is not the final frontier, Michael Carrick was not picked nearly often for England when he was one of the best CDMs in the world, it happens
Sometimes international managers aren't known for making the wisest decisions with team selections and subs......
I don't think he's good enough personally but I'm willing to be proved wrong
Zirkzee in for Rashford?
45mil bid for Braithwaite
35mil bid for De Ligt
Two solid options at cb
Everton won't let Thwaite go for £45 million, and we shouldn't even have bid that much. We need to move away from this kid, and get someone who's good enough to dislodge Guehi and Konsa from a squad. The kid isn't good enough.
Zirkzee for Rashford? Is Zirkzee a winger now?
@@RT-far-Tcompletely agree. Particularly as we’re seeing players like De Ligt are going far cheaper. There are options out there. Not a massive fans of De Ligt btw but think he’s better than Branthwaite. Would far prefer to see us going for Guehi if going for an English player.
I don’t watch serie a but at the same time zirkzee didn’t impress me at the euros at all
Drama free window… before we’ve signed anyone, that’s a statement. Let’s see how they get on shifting players out.
Personally think INEOS are allowing Ten Hag a few of his own personal signings until they’ve properly set up a scouting network and defined targets. This player is pretty average and screams yet another ‘I want him because he’s either Ajax related or Dutch’
For his style, age, experience in Europe and price, what options would you consider instead??
Keep the dream alive Stephen, everyone needs a F/T job mate. We need to put food on the table, we all have responsibilities and necessities, keep your passion for United and your UA-cam career alive! Work, and work more, stop listening to haters and folks who wish to exploit you, eventually you will make it! That's just the way of the world! They wish for you to fail. Keep the dream alive! Keep your passion alive! Even Rio works his UA-cam gig part time! He is a guest presenter! So, take cue from him and keep at it!
Zirkzee... nah, does not possess the pace to succeed in the Premier League. I think he will be pulled apart... but if he presses and brings the wingers into play, then, then... we have something. But he needs to enhance his understanding with Garnacho/Rashford etc.
Mata, Berbartov, RVN, Odegaard are/ were not pacy but thrived/ thrive in the epl
@@Zamunda- berbatov had ridiculous skill mate. Mata... Chelsea got us to buy him at a time when United had begun to crumble... upfront it is all about pace. Not expecting fireworks, we all thought weghorts was world beating... look how that turned up.
Now Olise is off to Bayern. Personally I think it’s a mistake and there was a spot ready and waiting with us..
I think he’s going to regret it.
So I hope Amad can step in and step up and make the position his own.
We ain’t getting rid of Antony.
But I think we should be thinking of turning him into a leftback..
I’m serious!!! Cuz it’s a problem position when our current left backs have been an injury problem from the start… what else can we do with him?
I Pray he proves me WRONG!!!!
I wanna have faith but………
You know what I’m saying
Not
A
Lot
He's
Mid
Juat another mid af Dutch player.
You talking about all this shit show the clips!! Let me know when you've ever seen rasmus scoop fake shot the keeper 🤣🤣 zirkzee would be the most technical attacker at the club. Amazing dribbler, great IQ, and his creative is needed basly
First to comment....first to view
Its looking to me like rude is being primed to be ten hags replacement i think this is why they only actived the one year exstention give rude a couple years to get used to the place
Why are we going back to signing people who eth nows , I judge signings by where do they rank in prem in there postion , do holjund or zirkee get in top 10 no , do any of our rivals fear any of them no ,.
We are not in the position to buy 3 to 5 players in one window that fit that mold.
Need to work our way back to getting the best in class instead of creating our own.
Stop is Ste we not playing 5-3-2 that’s what that is not 3 in the back because we playing with 3 centre backs and 2 wing back who are also defenders not my team
The more i see of him the more i think he's overhyped just because he can move about nicely, the guy doesn't score goals... imagine getting a striker who has only scored 12 goals in 2 years
For similar money we could have got Santiago Gimenez who scored 23 league goals last season plus 6 assists and he added 2 goals and a further 2 assists in the UCL. United even scouted him last year but chose Hojund instead for nearly triple the price. Only just turned 23 and he scores.
Zirkzee looked awful when the Netherlands brought him on, he looked out of place, nervous and clumsy, might just be me but im not excited at all by this signing, i hope he proves me wrong 🤞🏻
He only got to played less than 10 minutes in the game and you're already hating ffs
Hopefully he’ll ignite a spark in Anthony as I’ve not lost hope in him yet!
@@amekaiza no ive watched him in other games and highlights etc since i knew we was signing him, checked him out a bit..! Im just not buzzin over this signing
@@jaysparrow6631 same, i think there is a good player in Anthony
@@jaysparrow6631 Antony is a lost caused I think. He has no right foot, he is not blistering quick and his movement off the ball isn't great. I feel Antony is a LWB pretending to be a RW.
What to expect from Zirkzee?
1. Hardly any goals because his wingers can't cross.
2. Gesticulating at his wingers, who can't cross.
3. Scoring 12 league goals, because his wingers can't cross.
4. Running around fruitlessly because his wingers can't cross.
5. Getting criticised because he doesn't score many, because his wingers can't cross.
Summed up well
Zirkzee is like a Martial type striker, they help create chances, much more suited to the other players we have compared to Hojlund
I don't like the profile of striker that Zirkzee is Ste. I hate watching strikers like Kane, Zirkzee and Martial that constantly drop deep into the midfield.
If we sign Zirkzee it will leave us without a real focal point in the attack and it puts too much pressure on the likes of Garnacho and Rashford to pick up Zirkzees slack.
What if Rashford has another season like the 23/24 season? I also dont see Garnacho being ~20 league goal player. Zirkzee only averages 6.5 league goals per season. We should be going for a established clinical goal scorer that doesn't drop deep.
We have hojlund a completely different style of striker
@@georgecallaghan4206 Yes and that's also my problem with getting Zirkzee, our fans complain about there being no consistent style of play. Well you you won't see a consistent style of play by signing the polar opposite to what we already have.
We need to be going with a more experienced version Hojlund. Someone like Artem Dovbyk or Alexander Sørloth would be ideal. The 2 strikers I named don't have a ton of shots to score and they both don't drop deep into midfield.
@@-_-DatDude Look at how many different options city have… are Haaland and Alvarez remotely the same striker
@@georgecallaghan4206 Alvarez isnt a striker pal, he is a forward but last season(23/24) he was mostly used as a no.10 mate. The small amount of games that Alvarez has played as lone striker he uses his pace to run in behind like Haaland does. Zirkzee doesn't do that mate. Zirkzee will constantly come deep occupying Centre Mid areas mate.
Literally every striker City had since getting oil money, runs in behind. Roque Santa Cruz, Jo, Bony, Adebayor, Aguero and Haaland. They all run in behind and look to score mate, all of those players are extremely similar.
If we want to see a consistent style of play like City we need to be consistent with our player profiles. No point signing counter attacking, possession and Gegenpressing players... You will get a squad with no identity like we have now.
@@-_-DatDudeFirmino and Origi aren't the same no.9s they thrived for Liverpool, in different ways, Higuain was a box 9 at Real Madrid, where Benzema was more a false 9, facilitating for Ronaldo, at Real Madrid, Rooney and RVP were different 9's in Ferguson's last season, we won the league, so was Berbatov and Tevez, Yorke and Cole were different types of strikers, again we won trebles, and league titles with them, Muller (when he played in the no.9) and Lewandowski, were 2 different styles of 9's, for Pep at Bayern, Messi and Zlatan, again 2 different 9's, in Pep's Barcelona
Another FLOP
I think he’s shite
A mate has 2 tickets for the England v Spain game on Sunday
He paid £360 each, including flights but he didn't realise when he bought them months ago that it was going to be the same day as his wedding. 😦
If you are interested, he is looking for someone to take his place.
It's at Blackpool Registry Office, at 3pm. The bride's name is Sarah -- she's 5'7" and quite attractive.
Why is no United fan channel talking about Mason Mount, it’s as though he has left the club already 🥹 don’t forget ETH gave him no 7
Talk about what?
