Agree with u on everything except antony steve mate but ten hag didnt send the offer for 90 mil he just asked for a player. Then that player works as hard in defence as in attack when other wingers give 70-30% in attack. I back antony i think if we could sustain possesion in the final third it would show his real qualities with intricate through balls and winning the ball back high up. He plays the ten hag way… but the team doesnt 😮
Onana had 41 passes to no effect whatsoever ~ he’s crap
Bruno is infinitely better than Scott McTominay but he’s crap as well
Ericsson no way far too slow
Have a good one Ste and cheers for the hard work. It feels like we start with only 9 men with some of the ghost players. No crosses and very limited balls from the midfield. I really feel for Rasmus and you can see it in his expression, he can't evolve as a player with this current team, you cant learn to play football without a football.
ETH is implementing fire fighting football. We are yet to see his actual style of play. You can make the argument he doesn't have the players to do it but how far does that argument go when he's bought the gk he wanted, the cb he wanted, the rw he wanted, and a project striker. What was the purpose of Mount. Donny ,someone who knows his system was never really played. We've seen managers at other clubs, implementing their style yes getting beat but you can see what their doing. ETH hasn't showed anything.
Antony is rubbish
Kambwala is a BIG unit for a 19 year old. I thought him and Mainoo along with Evans and Shaw were the best players on the park for us yesterday. There is something to build on but we need players and to get them we need to get rid of the deadweight, Martial, Sancho, McTominay, Antony, Maguire. We may not get great fees for them but the amount we save on wages will allow us to pay more for players to get what we need and bring them in on smaller contracts, because we can pay them 3 times what they are on now and they will still be in the lower echelons of our wage structure.
Being completely honest. NONE of our attackers are at the level. Antony , Rashford pellistri garnacho. Nowhere near good enough for where we want to be. Hojlund I can see potential
June 2014, 10 years is approaching for Shaw yet you describe him as the bright spark 😂
Amad Diallo MUST get into the starting 11 when he is fit if we refuse to buy another RW.
I can see man utd winning the World Cup brexit and getting my local chipper to change their oil top talent players don’t want to come here it’s stinks of Ebola
United averaged one goal a game. If we scored 1 goal a game it means we shouldnt concede a goal in order to win!!! Impossible
Steve i would like to wish you and your family a merry Christmas and thank you for all the content that you provide
If Antony is the anchor, McTom might be the final nail in the coffin…
I know Antony is not playing great and his price tag will always be held against him but he created a perfect opportunity for garnacho and he put a really nice ball across goal that Hojlund did not get to. For me we need Casemiro back and McTominay off. Marcus needs to find his form or we need to find another forward. We still need another striker and at least one world class CB to allow us to play riskier football.
The fucking irony of clicking on a Manchester United video on YouTube and the advert that pops up is "adopt a donkey" 🤦♂️🤣
Ole wasn't the problem but the player's that we have doesn't have that ❤️ heart for the time
Its ugly maybe route one direct ball launch to our striker its not pretty but at least he may get a s hot on target
But stee according to united fans the board must pay whatever it costs to get ETH his first choice or they’re not “backing the manager”… so instead of looking at an alternative for antony we paid stupid money, same for Mount 😂😂lol
I wonder if we see Bruno on the right, Eriksen 10 with Mainoo and Amrabat at CDM. It’s solid and creative. Whatever happens I’ve got faith in Ten Hag even if this season looks like it’ll be a bit of a struggle.
Im 43 years old and have always looked forward to every game.Even after enduring the last more than few years of pretty much dross.But , this is worse than dross its a fkin disgrace and the manager HAS to be accountable at some point.He has progressed this team backwards.His signings especially in the summer have been shocking.
the CB didn't show any signs of nervousness and that's massive for a debut for MUFC. I have high hopes for the kid
Mctominay the iceberg?
Antony again ? He has been our best player in the las 3-4 games, we were shit when he was out too, why does he always get the stick ? Everyone else has been shit, bruno can't create against a low block, garnacho can't beat nor shoot for that matter Mctominay is Mctominay, why always Antony ?
We were controlling the game well,but winning is the name of the game which means you have to score.if the fourth official added three hours extra time we still weren’t gonna score,we need two wingers and two forwards,so we can Loan Garnacho and Hojlund out next season,and sell Antony,Rashford,Martial and Sancho.will we get them? Will we fu@&.Merry bastard Christmas 😂
We have to many players like bruno who if they don’t do what they are good at they are just mediocre players that are not good enough if Bruno’s assists dry up he is not a good enough player to merit a place as a Manchester United player, if rashfords goals dry up he is not a good enough player if mctominay does not score he offers nothing else at all. All other top teams players can play ball they are good solid footballers that contribute to the team even if they go through a bad patch of no goals and assists Manchester United don’t have that.
Remember Giggs? Running down the wing? Beckham? Probably 2 of Sir Alex best wingers. What is different is left footed Giggs played on the left side and right footed Beckham played on the right. That way they could CROSS the ball and strikers like Ruud or Yorke could score for fun. Then Ronaldo came in and changed what it was to be a winger, or so it seems. Cut inside, go for goal, forget crossing, who needs to do that.
Look at the goals we have scored this season. Hojlund goal from a rashford cross from the RIGHT. We are playing with a right winger who can't play with his right foot, and Garnacho who is clearly more comfortable on his right – look at the chance missed vs west ham which came to him on his left. What the hell is the idea? If Antony gets on the ball, unless Dalot is making an overlap the defence knows there is no threat on the outside. No cross is coming. The plan cannot be get Antony on the ball and eventually he'll cut in and score a blinder into the far corner… can it? Is that what it is?? Both the right winger and the right full back MUST BE CAPABLE OF THREATENING A CROSS (and vice versa).
Play Antony on the left, rashford on the right, Garnacho impact player for whichever needs to be replaced first. Cross the ball. You have a striker desperate for service, a goal scoring threat with mctominay arriving etc. LW – left foot RW – right foot FFS. Just that alone should up the chances created.
There is no 5 things. They are all shocking. Call it lads ?
We are relying on a young kid in Garnacho because we don't have a senior left winger, Rashford has gone. And we are relying on a young striker that has potential but we don't have a senior striker. Not right to be resting all United hopes on young developing prospects
Eriksen, Martinez and Casemiro were all good at offloading the ball last season, maybe that’s what we’re missing?
lol sancho showing his ass has nothing to do with Antony but everything to do with Sancho himself. lazy bum
Merry Xmas Ste.
All the best for you and the fammo.
Well done trying to find positives wherever you can during this shower of shite.
You identify the one plus and blow it out of proportion. Eg Mainoo.
I know it's getting increasingly harder to manage with this bunch, but somehow you're able to make content that isn't all moaning and angry. Even though you probably feel like that.
Appreciate you man.
My wonder is, wtf are they doing in training?
Any chance you get down and have a look.
We haven't scored two similar goals in recent memory.
No identifiable patterns of creativity and none out from the back.
What are they working on????
