You're wrong, as has been pointed out. The only thing Lucas has over Anderson at the moment is consistency. And it's not as if he's consistently good. He's just consistently average. Rarely terrible, never amazing. Anderson is 10x more talented and he's starting to put it all together. It won't be a contest by the end of the season, although those deluded twats at RAWK will still feel the same since they don't actually watch football apart from Pool games.

Well, Anderson is up against Ramires...it's not like he's up against Ronaldinho. It is a crap argument though, absolutely agree. You don't even have to look at England, there's enough examples in that Brazil team - up until this summer Andre Santos was starting ahead of Marcelo, I mean come on.
The stares for for free-kick goals, class 
Did against them in 2007-08 when Hargreaves scored that fk
I can't understand why the Sky commentators were suggesting it's not good sportsmanship to do that, even the Arse PIG was laughing at Ando's antics and he wouldn't have saved them anyway.
This lad has got better game by game. Ran the show. Immense.
He's taken it to a different level this season. It's all finally starting to come together for him.
I think he was a player who needed Scholes to leave to take the next step. Now he has been given the keys to the big red Ferrari, and he is ready to drive.

Nice chip pass to Welbeck for the first goal. So happy to see him on top of his game this season.
had some great moments today. i think his days on the bench are over.
A Xavi pass. and they say this lad isn't a play maker....
He bossed midfield again. Starting to maintain a good level of performances so far this season and we should be very happy with his progress. Keep it up.
im loving Anderson, very mature displays and is balatantly the main reason as to why Rooney scored the free kicks
The metaphor is beautiful. The only problem is that it's pretty inappropriate...

He's developing into the player his early talent indicated he has the ability to be.
I'm very pleased with the progress and I still believe he's a way to improve yet.

They also said he should be sold and he was useless, will they ever learn. Gibson over Anderson eh people?

it was an audi though.
Same here, the potential in the lad is incredible.
It's a pity Scholesy is banned. I so wanted him to eat his words
That was an abysmal claim. Million miles between them.
He is also fit and lasting the whole 90 minutes which is an added bonus. Hopefully he can stay fit for the whole season.
Was on track for MotM if he'd stayed on - great performance again though. He's going to save us a shed load of money not having to buy Sneijder.
If he keeps this up I'll have to eat my words about his lack of incisiveness and creativity.
Knowing Anderson, he'll be happy to eat them instead of me though.

Even Cleverley is way ahead of Gibson.
So all he needed was a proper preseason after all. He's looked class so far.
You can't help but like him. What he was doing with Chesney for the free kicks even had the keeper himself laughing.
Him and Cleverley seems to be working really well in tandom. It is interesting because we are playing without a holding midfielder for three and a half games and we have done brilliantly.
We need a gif of that.
He's looking good and if we can keep him involved, then obviously his fitness will improve more and he'll have his best season with the club. He's enjoying it, they showed him with Cleverly pre match in good spirts and we have good mobility at the minute. If they can contribute goals great but I think there is an unpredictability there which is a bonus for us because they can both carry the ball forward and run off the ball. Hopefully he can steer clear of injury, build on his form and break back into the Brazilian squad as that'll help his confidence and maturity as well
If anyone has a gif of the 2nd rooney free kick from behind the goal, i really think Ando blocking the line of sight worked brilliantly
FIFA or PES is never going to be real until they made ando doing that for our freekicks in their games.
Another good performance today, really taking up a leadership role I feel. I hope he can stay fit and cement his place.
Really? that must have been before I joined as I've barely seen any positive posts on Gibson, let alone ones claiming he was a better prospect than Anderson.

I saw that last year, and people bashing Ando made me laugh. A lot of people here said that Gibson was as good as him. Can you imagine that ? fecking hell
The lad just needed some to build his fitness, spectacular player.
Scholes-eque !!!
HAS to get into the Brazil team now, surely?
That is even mild. We were assured he is best at left back. Plus never good enough to ever be able to hold down a first team place for us.
I'm loving it at the moment, all that arguing over the last 2 seasons defending the lad and telling everyone to be patient, well now I'm gloating. The best bit is as well, the lad still hasn't reached his potential yet.
Nobody said Gibson was a better player. I remember some comments about picking Gibson ahead of him when Anderson was playing badly. I don't think there's a single United fan, anywhere on the planet, who thought Gibson was the bigger talent of the two.
Its a continuation of last season. When he played last year in the 2nd half of the season he was excellent too.
I have rarely got involved in this thread. For me it has always been obvious he is a top quality midfielder
He has barely put a foot wrong in this calander year
