Ugarte's performance is perfect. He needs a partner like prime pogba
Ah 45k, congrats AJ. Also, "Another" great video 🔥🔥🔥
Another Sporting player.. Just donate us rashford bruh
Closest thing to Roy Keane i've seen since. There are going to be a lot of clueless united fans moaning that he's garbage blah blah but hopefully this video helps.
Glad you got it. Said it to my son during the game on how well he broke things up, laid off simple balls, worked incredibly hard and looked vocal.
Keanoesq performance
Are we allowed to get gassed yet?
Ugarte is the Michael Carrick we’ve should have had and been missing for a long time
I was sceptical about playing 3 at the back, but Amorim's system really gives key players the cover from an extra man to be aggressive in the tackle and win the ball back asap… they're still finding their attacking combinations, but we can see the team is clearly instructed to keep the ball and not constantly looking to play on the break and then losing it… no more basketball matches
Great analysis – let’s go MAN U !
Hey bro , you got your 45 !! Let’s go !!
He’s genuinely been one of our best players recently and I’m here for it
Me alegran sus comentarios!a partir de ahora tienen a quien va a ser el mejor 5 del mundo,porque solo tiene 23 años y mucho para aprender y crecer;pero ya es un señor dentro de la cancha!con una categoria y clase propia de verdaderos cracks!!Grande manuuu!!!🇺🇾🇺🇾🇺🇾
Calm on the ball. Aggressive without the ball 👏
Not hard to dominate a midfield of foden and gundogan
Ugarte was great in this game. He's improving.
In this game we had a greater passing percent than city, also they only made 30 more passes than us. We are progressing
45!!!!
He's abit of a defensive monster tbf. So many tackles.
United fans figuring out that a 23 yo player that has gone from Sporting to PSG for 60M€ and from there to Man Utd for 50M€ might actually be a good player.
Ugarte is a younger Casemiro, and while prime Casemiro always had a streak of attacking brilliance in him as a goal threat(late runs into the box, insane long shots and good in dead-ball situations) Ugarte seems to have a sense of a good key pass/chance creating pass in him in place of being a direct goal threat. He's mobile, no-nonsense, very good and more importantly not afraid of getting a tackle in and has the sense to cover for the more attack oriented players. EtH (and Luis Enrique at PSG) has a very VERY specific profile of midfielder in mind and was running the risk of not even playing Ugarte because he didn't fit that mold perfectly but so glad we now have Amorim instead who's letting Ugarte just do his thing in the middle.
Even before Sporting he was known as a very smart player.
I found this video comp of Bruno/ugarte long passes, casemiro is no where close to this guy, I can't wait for him to to reach his form
