Amad has really good delivery from set pieces
That’s on Garnacho for not being born and raised in Manchester
Yes, as much as anyone. But the team is above.We need to keep the ball better. Brighton look like a team we should be beating on their ground.Ohh no Amex is leaking
Rashford a clear weak link in our attackCas pissed off with Amad after putting in a great ball. Should have left it for someone else.Think Dalot was better placed for that crossShould have done better with the header there. Also ref should have done better by giving a yellow card for the double hand ball
What does var have to do with this?Another wasted chance, now it's Casemiro.
Man we really need to improve our finishing incredibly frustrating.This is just like last season. We can’t pass, we can’t find players quickly enough and playing around at the back is frightening. Zirksee should have been started and Mount should not be near this team, including reserves. We need an enormous amount of luck to get anything from this game.The amount of headers casemiro doesn’t guide on target is staggeringPawson always has that smug look on his face like a schoolkid who's let off a stinkbomb in the bogs.Once we find the scoring touch we are gonna be great.
Manutd old rule
Yeah so 25 minutes today has gave you everything you need to know about a player and to write him off.
Great stuff.Mainoo looking very very classy out thereI am surprised by that lack of passing from MartinezBrighton's high line is begging to be punishedSo many balls dropping in area where our no9 would be. Stop with this formation, Erik. Please stop.Love how the ref gestured ‘no more’ when refusing to get his card out. As if handball is something players do deliberately all the time.
And with Bruno about to get into a very dangerous positionWe're solid in midfield and defense, but useless upfront.
Yup. We should be playing Zirkzee.Brighton are shite in attack, or we are good in defence.They haven't created anything.Playing very well but let's get a goal.
Playing a striker might help.
Maybe if Hojlund or Garnacho played. Not with Bruno as false nine
Clearly Martinez had that under control but off you go.Lovely ball CasMount sighting
Not really, lack penetration and relying on forcing mistakes from transition play, but defensively infinitely better shape.Mount's having a really tidy game.
High line and a midfield formed of 38 year old Milner and Gilmore we should make some out of it hopefully.It needs to be Rashford taken off for Garnacho today and not Amad.
Rewarding Marcus for this level of application and body language just sends such a poor message to the rest of the squad about acceptable standards.Very solid opening performance to a tricky away fixture.We miss Garnacho’s intensity out wide today. Rashford isn’t really giving us anythingSee lots of empty seats- Status
