    today would of been his game, Valencia and especially Young had great chances to score but they missed.

    If we had Nani today he would of posed more thread on goal.

    We need to get Nani back fit and on form and make sure we do not sell him in january.

    You can say what you want about him but on his day when on form, he is a goal thread and unstoppable.

    I think he can still play a big part, i believe in him and so should all of us.

    Today's performance was terrible especially the passing game was really bad. Giggs came on and he showed the other's in how to pass the ball. he did make some clever passes.

    We had enough giving the ball away without Nani getting in on the act!

    indeed we did..
    when Valencia struggles it was always good to have that option
    am 90% sure he will be sold in January or at least a deal for the summer will be in place

    Nani is definitely a talent, but he's not a team player, he just plays for himself. He rarely tracks back, and he constantly ignores team mates in better positions to go for glory himself.

    I'm surprised that over the years this selfishness hasn't been trained out of him, but it hasn't and it probably never will, so we may aswell get rid of him.

    Valencia may not be as talented as Nani but he's a far better player to have in your team, as he works his socks off, and he's always looking to create opportunities for the forwards :biggrin:

    Nani's ego is bigger than his talent, he struggles to be consistent and his decision making is questionable at best, I can't say I'd be upset if we replaced him with someone like James Rodriguez or Griezmann, both left footed wingers.

    SAF has had enough of Nani, as have many of the fans.

    So much talent, but not the attitude and team ethic to go with it.

    When last was he consistently good for us? As far as I can remember it was the first half of the 2010/11 season, he was absolutely brilliant along with Berbatov, but then faded in the second half of the season... Luckily Valencia made an amazing comeback from his broken leg and took over the in-form winger role.

    I can't recall him being anywhere near his best (for more than one or two games at a time, spaced far apart) since that time, I may have overlooked a decent burst of form since then though. No doubt the big Nani fans will disagree, this is my opinion obviously, it's not gospel.

    To be honest, i think his career at United is over and will be sold in January or after the season ends.
