He's just saying what everyone else is thinking...United need to be quicker in the final third. He wants United to dominate games the way they used to...same as we do.
I don't disagree with his sentiment, we are far from sexy in the final third, I think Wayne is not our striker, we need someone else - Not that Wayne is not competent,I feel he's more productive and happier in his usual 10
Back to point, I've never heard him compliment United. If he ever said anything positive was because he had to(somewhat forced) to agree with his co-commentators compliment - Sam Allardyce is similar.
