Luis Nani
Looks like he is gonna be going into the new season just where he left off before he had that horrible injury which affected his confidence towards the 2nd half of last season.
He has been very impressive in pre season and the game V Barca, he played like he had a point to prove and was prolly our best player( just edging Cleverley and Welbeck).
His dribbling, passing and more surprisingly, his pace, has all improved. Not to mention he bagged 2 goals with clinical finshing too. Great to see.
For the new season, I expect him to have an even better one than last season, but this time, I expect him to be an even bigger goal threat and bang in at least 15 goals and get 20+ assists.
So what are your expectations for Nani next season?
PS. lulz at the rumours that we are thinking of selling our players' player of the year this summer.

Re: Luis Nani
he has been most impressive in the pre-season tour. lets hope he doesn't come up against carragher again this season.
his development at united has been very similar to that of cr7 except for nani has taken a little longer to become the player we all knew he could be. just cut out the selfishness and he'll be great. his decision making has gotten alot better too judging by the pre season.

Re: Luis Nani
This is what I love seeing. The vast improvement in his game, and he is only gonna get better.
He will be WC...imo, he is just on the verge of being WC. Just for the fact he can carry team like United ( remember last season during the Rooney turmoil). He can create a bit of magic when we need him.
Now we need Anderson to step up just like Nani has. Ando has been brilliant in pre season too.

Re: Luis Nani
i honestly hope ando can step it up. i think he needs more desire he's a bit too light hearted. if fergie gives him a good run of games this year which he has never had at united, maybe we will see him living up to all the hype when we bought him. he's strong, powerful consistently owns fabregas when he plays, SAF should deploy him as more of an attacking playmaker and leave the defensive stuff to fletch, park or carrick.

Re: Luis Nani
Let's not forget also, this is the first proper pre season Anderson has had with United. Could do him a world of good. let's hope so anyways.

Re: Luis Nani
Nani's patience on the ball and ability to create chances is so big for us, gives us more dynamic attack, can't just focus on wazza

He will in all honestly. The fact he and Val are up against each other for the RM position will be a good motivation for both of them and will benefit the team.
For me, depending how quickly Young adapts on the left, I think nani will start ahead of Valencia. Nani is our best winger.

Re: Luis Nani
we'll see. ferguson said he is available for transfer if the price is right. if you look at the statistics for nani this season he has NOT had a good season. you paid 28 mill€ for him when you signed him, think i heard ferguson was asking for something between 20 and 25 mill € now.. you might have to sell him if you want to get sneijder.. you guys have poor economy - remember?

We have the funds to sign Sneijder. It doesn't make any sense to weaken our team by selling one our best players.
Nani being linked to many teams right now, I just wanna know where this has come from. It doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

Re: Luis Nani
sure Juventus needs him, but that is not the reason i claim he has had a poor season? why would he be benched against barcelona in the finals if he is that good a player? you guys have a very strong team, and in turin we are currently building something to get back to the glory days, so yes.. we need a player like nani, but if he remains with united and has another bad season i see it most unlikely we will splash for him next year. you guys can sell him to a fairly good price now and have sneijder or keep him and sneijder will remain in seria a. in fact i tip the possibility that sneijder will come the same as if nani would join juventus.. sneijder is not a CM btw, he can not take scholes' old duties at all...?

first of all, go have a look at Nani stats and watch a United game before saying he had a bad season, he was left outta the Finals because Valencia and Park are better defensively, and you need player who can tackle against barcelona, and not to mention he was given are player of the year award by his fellow teammates....terrible season he had
Your Sneijder comments are ridiculous, and i'm sure Sir Alex Ferguson has been chasing a player who can't play CM ....i'll take his judgement over yours, Sneijders passing ability and ability on the ball allows him to play any role in the midfield besides a defensive one. just because Inter in the past have used him as a adavanced role behind the strikers doesn't mean he can't play elsewhere, Inter are changing his role this year if he stays with there new coach

Re: Luis Nani
I love how when Nani is on form Manchester United is at its dynamic and incisive best. Remember earlier last season, when Nani used to stroll up to the opposing defender and with two movements be flying passed the hapless defender allowing him to send in a good ball or go for goal.
As for his development, it has been extremely steep and encouraging to watch. However, if he improves his decision making further and be more clinical in front of goal he will be a world beater. Last season the only criticism I had was that he wasted quite a few gilt edged chances.
Nani, Young and Valencia - there is a reason United's iwng play is considered among the best in the world.

That's what I love about his play, the fact that he can shoot with both feet makes him so unpredictable...much more lethal than say..Robben, who relies so much on his left foot.
It benefitted him so much last season cuz defenders would be unsure whether he would cut in or not, allowing Nani to either whip in a cross or shoot at goal and score.

Totally agree however I pose a question for you. Do you agree that Nani is far more comfortable on the right than he is on the left? I felt that his injury coupled with him forced to play on the left, contributed to his dip in form.
Another point to make about Nani: he is NOT the next CR7. Ronaldo has always been a forward rather than a winger in my eyes, whilst I think that Nani is a winger to the core. He likes to play wide, beating his man and feeding the forwards. Yes he does shoot frequently however he creates chances (either for himself or others) but rarely is a finisher like Ronaldo who is played in by his teamates.

Re: Luis Nani
Interesting seeing Valencia have more assists - eight - than Nani in less games. He started the season off poorly, granted he wasn't in action that much. All this talk about him losing a yard of pace has been rubbished now, surely. I love Valencia, he's one of those players you simply can't hate. He is predictable, some of us treat it like it's a bad aspect, yet he manages to tear left backs apart with his power and space. In addition to this, compared to Nani, he is more direct and is more effective when drilling in low ball. It's debatable whether he is the better crosser.
Nani is the most technically gifted player in the squad. He's brushed up on so many aspects of his game, since 2009, where he looked destined to leave. His crossing is beautiful, especially when he picks out an area as opposed to crossing it straight to a specific striker. He's more dynamic and unpredictable. Take the Barcelona game where Valencia couldn't cope, his predictability was the reason for his poor performance. Nani is more versatile, can play as a right winger, left winger, or even as a central attacking midfielder, which we have seen him play in a couple of games, against Aston Villa and Wigan. However, we can get more out of Nani if he is allowed freedom, and Nani can make himself better if his decision making improves.

Re: Luis Nani
Haha, there is still a possibility that Park might start, we need his industriousness, but if Nani is match fit then I would like to see him on the left, with Valencia operating on the right, it's our best combination, even though Nani is predictable down the left.
