Man U didn’t control the game we just weren’t good enough clown 🤡
Cruyff looks very ugly in your book
Glazers Out!!!!!
what does it actually matter in the end? because Manchester United have paid for success? doesn't matter who or where the money comes from because it all does the same exact thing? Casimero was bought for 70 million from Real Madrid 5 times Champions league winner it doesn't get no more underwhelming than that? sad day for football and once again money talks but I swear yeah if any divvy starts mouthing off when Newcastle go in for players honestly!
Newcastle had 0 chance of scoring against that back four with Casemiro patrolling in front, they could have played all day and not come close
It was light work for United. Once they went ahead Newcastle had to stop playing in the margins as they like to do. Newletico could of easily lost by 5 or 6..
Going from McFred to Casemiro fills me with the same euphoria I assume crack gives you
FYI, for all those non Madrid fans, Casemiro has never lost a Finals😏
That clip going around of Casemiro arguing with Bruno mid trophy celebration about something he did wrong during the game is exactly the time of leadership the team didn’t have.
Most positive thing, aside from winning a trophy, was controlling the game. I think the team is finally starting to be able to do that.
Off side total joke
Newcastle missed Pope`s passing out from the back, he sets up a lot of their attacks.
Wonderful player ❤
Now the next challenge is to find a young DM who has the potential to turn into a quality DM in next window so that he can rotate and replace him in 3 years, because if we don't do that, the drop in performance will be too sharp
You were right about Bruno. He was terrible again, just like all our big games.
Thought utd should have had 4 or 5
Seems Tifo are also hating on C.Ronaldo, it's funny how they rotate the jerseys in the background constantly, but he has never featured. Anyways doesn't affect his greatness
Honestly you cant blame Karius for the second goal, I'm a goalkeeper and it annoys the sh*t out of me when people say you reacted 'ToO EaRlY' that's literally what the job role is, to have fast reactions, there's no one with fast enough reactions to also anticipate for a deflection at the same time, if the ball had been going left and deflected right would people be saying he dived too early? he's only getting stick because it looped over his head and the fact that it's Karius, he had a decent game, that second goal was just unlucky, I never thought I'd feel sorry for a premier league footballer but I genuinely do for Karius
Some of the best, most insightful post-match analysis I've seen for a while
You don't necessarily need to have possession to control a game of football.
Yet another manager, Ten Heisenburg has outclassed🏆💯
It's crazy how hard these games are to watch as a fan as described in the 2nd half because Im always on edge and anxious. I support United and could not enjoy the 2nd half at all, but when you do look back at the game and consider, United looked fairly comfortable in the second half and dealt with everything that Newcastle threw at them well
It's really easy to talk…
Hopefully Jon Mackenzie watches this
Steady Eddie….
It's like you guys cover United after every single win smh
I am really happy that United can play multiple ways of football. We can control possession and pin teams back when needed, as well as defend and counter like today. Newcastle struggle breaking opponent's down and it just resorts to Saint Maximin ISO ball.
Cristiano couldve been there, if only he had graduated from kindergarden :V
Show Jon this
Legend has it that Wan-Bisaka still has Saint Max in his pocket.
I wish we got a smidge of this level of tactical understanding during games.
Back when he was still at RM Casemiro would basically always play well, even if we lost. I wish we didn't sell him 😢
JJ gotta lay off the beers
newcastle? more like oldcastle lmao haha
Casemiro represents vintage madrid
Who is taller? Weghorst or Joe Devine?
Thanks for saying “complete control without the ball” … many so-called experts were crying that Newcastle were better, United got lucky, etc. had no clue what’s going on … everyone at United’s defense played amazingly well … with all the possession in the world, Newcastle didnt have a single decent opportunity at goal for DDG to deal with … the closest Newcastle came was Burns’ header off far post, but even then Dalot was already present at the post to deal with the ball should it arrive on target …
First of all, you need a haircut 💇♂️ buddy , second you can't win a trophy with a defender like Burn. , WTF, varane vs Burn. , english players suck
Erik Ten Hag the bald genius
do liverpool vs madrid analysis
I love to see Karius and Maguire redeemed themselves
you didn't say "Subscriiiiibeee to the chanel" 😀
Casemiro…. woof. Ten Hag is truly letting him cook.
What a manager we have man!!! ❤️
man i love jj bull the bullet so much
Ten Hag was literally playing chess
The video was mostly about ETH's tactical prowess and a solid team performance tbf, but Casemiro is brilliant. Give Karius a break though, it was an unkind deflection. I don't think he deserves to be singled out.
If Ten Hag knew he was playing defensive, why would he start Dalot over Bissaka?
