    Casemiro should be off at half time. So annoying that he's been making basic mistakes for months.

    I wouldn't be against a Mount-Mainoo-Bruno midfield for the rest of the game, if Mason is ready.

    I'm worried we'd be even more exposed with 2 attacking midfielders in a midfield 3.
     
    Really low quality game but I still think we'll win this, we have the better team and our quality will find a way to exploit their defence. Honourable mention to Palmer though, best player on the pitch.

    This Chelsea defence can't defend or pass well. I also think Enzo is a problem for them, he looks as bad as the Antony signing for us. I don't think he's got the energy or athleticism to play that role in the PL.

    Another proof that Real will rarely sell a quality player
    On the other hand I fully expect them to show up one day and try to buy Garnacho or Mainoo

    They do sell them. Seen Arsenal their captain? Robben, Sneijder, current Girona left back, Kubo is a good player. It is possible to pick up good players from them but we picked old Casemiro and injury prone Varane. Rodrygo might come on the market when Endrick and Mbappe join.

    This man to man set-up in midfield is mind-boggling. Mainoo is so high up. In fairness, he has had some real nice moments in their final third, but we need some extra bodies in MF.

    It is our formation. Does not make sense nor does it work, but great we stick to it

    We play the same dumb as feck midfield set up no matter who plays, it is rather irritating, Mainoo tonight is in the McT role of chasing second balls and barely touching it in comparison to his midfield partners. Cas/Bruno 28 completed passes, Mainoo 15.

    It's so annoying. Got old about 60 games ago. It's time for the 4-1-5 to die.
     
    all this game is showing is one clear thing, there was no right answer in the whole EtH vs Poch argument before they were hired

    No, I didn't. I'm usually saddened to see such awful opinions within the United fanbase.

    However, seeing that most of your posts is bashing every player / manager and calling them shit, rubbish, etc. I guess you're just that venting type of poster

    You did, you giggled at your funny post

    Well, i could lie and say they are all class, but they arnt are they....im pretty consistent with a lot of sensible posters i see on here...other than Martinez, Hojlund, Mainoo and Garnacho(potential)...i wouldnt be sad to see any of the regulars leave

    Mainoo has way better ball retention, than Casemiro at #6, and Mount has really good work-rate. It's probably not perfect but would probably work better than Kobbie-Casemiro-Bruno. Another combation I wouldn't mind seeing is Mainoo-Amrabat-Bruno.
     
    Mainoo needs to sit in more. Shut some of the gaping holes. He can push forward when we are attacking.

    It hurts to say this but he has to see his players can’t be trusted to play this way and and he needs to dumb it down considerably. It’s that or he’ll be out of a job

    Onana is not one of the best shot stoppers around, but he's almost perfect for a possession-based side. I hope you will change your opinion on him eventually.
     
    Wild game. Both teams looks poor but glad we're back in it at half time. Big blow with Varane going off again.

    That’s clearly not what he’s instructed to do though. It’s bizarre but our entire structure seems designed to leave one DM on their own trying to cope with whatever the opposition throws at them.

    That's my way of saying he's not very good even on his stronger side

    I know it was a joke.

    His left foot is fine, he needs to 1) learn how to get power on his shots and not just gently curl it at the keeper 2) get a right leg transplant
     
    I still can't get used to how poor Chelsea looks whenever I watch their games.
