Great debut for Milan. Hopefully he'll keep on with the good and hard work.

QUOTE (milanbuf88 @ Aug 31 2014, 11:13 AM) A lot of running? Muntari is the laziest "hassler" I've ever seen! Huh? He had one of the better distance covered at the World Cup (obviously per game, not total) and most certainly did in Milans MF last season. "lazy" is the last thing he is. Technical ability? Yeah, I agree he's nowhere near the best in that regard. |

This is a very clear example of how stats can sometimes be totally mis-leading, his jogging around hikes those numbers up big time |

In any case, let's not argue over something irrelevant and enjoy the win! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I disagree. One only has to count how easily Lazio countered once Muntari was off.
Playing box to box in a midfield three is insanely difficult. INSANELY F#CKING DIFFICULT. Trust me on this. And he does a stellar job. Candreva was quiet till he was taken off. And he scored a goal and actually got involved in goal scoring situations. Yet all anyone here can see is one off tackle or one skyward shot. Not realising that he probably sprinted from the other half to be there to even receive the ball. Would I take Modric over him? Sure. But until then he's the best we've got. Right now for me, it's Poli who gets the bench when Montolivo comes back. |

No jack, Lazio were already getting the upper hand on us before Muntari left the field, he's irrelevant in this case, it was De Jong that dropped off a lot in the second half which allowed Lazio control of the midfield. Muntari doesn't play box-to-box, Muntari plays as Muntari wants. He's just completely undisciplined as a player and tactically ignorant. Oh and Candreva was quiet because SES and Bonera were doubling up on him, and it's not like he's Ronaldo, he only got into it when our players started to tire out a bit and we lot control of the midfield |

I thought Essien was a disaster positioning wise whereas I could always see Muntari 'jogging in' and cutting off passing angles. Anyway, it won't be the first time people watch the same match and interpret things differently. |

Muntari would be perfect in the double pivot or even as anchor, but as mezz'ala he's totally not suited. He jogs around the field and doesn't pressure the opponent. He's decent only when we're closed in our own half, as that's when his physicality and tackling skills come to fruition.

Lol, it's a good thing you're not a woman max, or you'd be easier than a working girl desperate for work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) I've personally never said that I don't like the guy as a human being, he seems like a good guy, but as a footballer, I simply cannot stand him, he's so limited, lazy and tactically limited. Just cannot stand watching him on the pitch for us. Hopefully now with Van Ginkel and Bonaventura his time on the pitch will be very limited |

read in FI yesterday or the day before, Muntari is very content and wants to retire at Milan (IMG:style_emoticons/default/king.gif)
He's been a good servant for the past couple of years, under which all coaches relied on him to battle that midfield. |
