Fred has improved so much, stats show that too
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Even forgetting stats you can tell he’s been so much better by just watching.

Easily top 10 midfielders in the league this season. Arguably top 5.

He was good for a while.

Giving him that massive new contract was arguably a worse decision than us giving massive wages to Sanchez.

I did think Fred’s improvement was getting a bit overhyped at the start of the season. But to be fair to him he’s just been getting better and better.

I’m not really a fan of his style, to be honest. But it’s hard to deny his impact in the midfield this season. The break really came at a bad time for him.

Teams give Fred the ball because there is a zero threat when he has it. Such a limited player. His only saving grace now is that he can pass to Fernandes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Like I said. Lazy assumptions.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Happened at Anfield. Every other United player we pressed but when Fred had the ball they had a breather. They even let him find row z with a couple long range shots.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I remember him being the best player on the pitch in that game for much of the 2nd half. Commentators said the same.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------
It happened. I specifically remember Gary Neville saying he’s been outstanding and he’s not a biased commentator/pundit. Doesn’t suit your agenda but it happened.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Which agenda is that? People can have different opinions you know? Not everybody is a biased United fan. Majority of fans who aren't United fans will say Fred has overall been poor. Yes he's been better than woeful this season, yes he has improved but he's poor. I watched him play for Shaktar a few times and he was outstanding. Running the show, dribbling, long range shots. He looks a shadow of that player.

Overall though, with his reputation I consider him a flop.

Also Lacazette should be nowhere near this list. Ridiculous inclusion.

Name 10 better this season. This should be good. You’ll probably try to fit Gerrard in there somewhere.

There’s only one red - he’s making big improvements every game and the stats back that
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I agree he's making improvements. I agree he's settling into the team and I agree he could get better and better. However the level the improvements have brought him to, wouldn't getting him in to a title challenging team. That could change as he continues to improve.

Clearly haven’t watched him this season at all. Been very good and has performed against all levels of opposition.

His shooting is still dreadful though.

I could probably name 30. However I'm not going to waste my time. If you think Fred has been good then crack on, whilst teams with actual good players win trophies. It's a confusing time for you no doubt.

I think it matters. Form isn’t something you can just flick on and off. He’d finally found form in a United shirt and it was interrupted, that’s never a good for thing a footballer. Even tor the best ones it’s not.

Yes, it's especially important for players who had a hard time and are turning it around, you need to keep it going as the slightest disruption can dent the confidence and you're back to square one.

I don't see what's delusional about that. He should be in with a shout, no doubt. Just because he isn't an attacker, doesnt mean he shouldn't. I prefer midfielders over attackers, plus I'm obviously biased. He would be my choice.

Alberto Moreno being a good player is a funnier TOOR opinion.
