FPL Frasier
@FPLfrasier
He/him; May have coined the term “Grass FC”😜; FPL last 5 seasons 6k, 4k, 19k, 51k, 23k; UCL 20/21 329; MUFC fan; FPL, vFPL; Use fbref, FFscout for data
% of team's progressive passes vs pass completion - Marker size shows player progressive passes per 90 - Big message from this plot is if a team is highly dependent on one particular player for ball progression via passes, do not expect high pass completion for that player -…
If you break down last season, most of United’s dropped points under RA came down to fail to score first (or create at all), and poor goalkeeping. With Bruno, Ugarte, Casemiro, and Mainoo, I think we can survive by focusing on other positions first. RA's project at Sporting,…
People who believed midfield should have been our first priority, why do you think Amorim has been focusing on the whole new attack + goalkeeper before midfield? Give me Amorim’s perspective that you can guess.
I know it’s a FPL post, but still relevant for United fans. Many fans still behave like Casemiro 23-24 repeated his performance last season. There was a huge change last season, especially under Amorim.
Finally got a chance to have a look at CBRIT per 90 for Midfielders from 24/25. Quite a few players here who aren't minutes monsters understandably, so I've filtered out those with less than 15 90s played in the next part.
🚨 Marcus Rashford: “I don't have anything bad to say about Manchester United”. “I think it's been an important part of my life, I'm grateful... I just wish them all the best and I hope they are successful in the future”.
📞 "Yeah… It’s official." Rashford follows in Lineker’s footsteps.
Rashford was supposed to stay at United his whole career and break the record of Rooney. 🥲🥲 Good luck Marcus. Hope he kills it at Barcelona. A top form Marcus is still one of the best wide forwards in the game. Barcelona fans would hope that they see the best version of Marcus…
🗞️ Marcus Rashford has joined Barcelona on a season-long loan. Best of luck, Marcus 👊
Liverpool yet to receive an improved bid from Bayern Munich for Luis Diaz. Player has trained normally so far this week in Hong Kong. Real Madrid’s Rodrygo currently not viewed as a possible replacement if Diaz does go. No talks. #LFC
Never seen anything like this spending from the top 4 clubs.
Chelsea's pursuit of Simons + Hato could be part of a £1BILLION summer spend by last season's top 4 clubs. They are pulling away...and there's not much the chasing pack can do about it. With @JPercyTelegraph #cfc #afc #mcfc #lfc #avfc #nufc #thfc #MUFC telegraph.co.uk/football/2025/…
Brentford want more than £40m for Yoane Wissa as Newcastle fail with £25m bid 🐝 telegraph.co.uk/football/2025/…
People who believed midfield should have been our first priority, why do you think Amorim has been focusing on the whole new attack + goalkeeper before midfield? Give me Amorim’s perspective that you can guess.
🚨🗣️ @FabrizioRomano: "These two positions are the priorities, striker and goalkeeper, but keep an eye on defensive midfielders. It was something at the start of the window that United considered before putting it on standby as they wanted to focus financially on Mbeumo and…
Inviting the opposition press before hitting a long ball from the goalkeeper is a fine strategy, but if your striker loses 75% of the duels then this strategy just becomes ineffective.
🚨 RB Leipzig have REDUCED the asking price of Benjamin Šeško to £60.6m.🔴🇸🇮 #RBL (via @BILD)
If you are criticizing a tactical decision from a manager, first tell me why the manager might be taking that decision in the first place. Tell me the thinking of the manager behind that decision and what the manager might be missing. Obviously in an ideal world that decision…
If you have MUTV, they have a 20 mins highlights of the United vs Leeds game. Watch and do let me know when we allowed attacks through the center and what we could have done to avoid those attacks? You will get answers for what’s needed in midfield eventually.
🚨🗣️ José Mourinho: "Today, I think that with the change of ownership, which doesn’t have a lot of football experience but knows sports, it brings more sensitivity [compared to my own experience when I was at the club]. What happened to Ruben [Amorim] is that he’s been the coach…
What’s up with Bayern? Why don’t they just go and sign Rodrygo? Diaz is 28. If you are spending 80m on a 28 year old you expect that player to lead you big titles. Is Diaz really that player?
Bayern are set to make an improved bid for Luis Díaz and are prepared to pay up to €80m [@JacobsBen]
Watkins or Sesko? Should United go for the PL proven striker or younger striker from Bundesliga?
🚨 Ruben Amorim KEEN to sign one Premier League experience sriker. #MUFC [@ChrisWheelerDM]
🚨🗣️ @cfbayern: "It’s worth noting that Leipzig have to sell players this summer. They have a target to bring in €100M [£86.6M], and they have just two players in this range who can make the club money. Xavi Simons, of course, is one such footballer, with the other being…
Chelsea got £52m for Madueke. Selling Garnacho to them for anything below £50m - £60m would be a terrible deal.
🚨🇸🇮 Christopher Vivell - United's director of recruitment - is 'supporting a potential deal' for Benjamin Sesko, who can leave for a good offer this summer. RB Leipzig are 'willing to talk' if they receive a fee in the region of £60.6m 💷 [@cfbayern via @caughtoffside] #MUFC
