I think that would suit TFM as all he'd have to do is defend and I think he's do well in that regard. He obviously isn't going to attack and man marking someone is more something he'd be up for

Perhaps, fingers crossed. He certainly won’t be charging up the pitch agreed and I wouldn’t expect him to, thrown in like this.

Feels so much like Southampton ugh.

Probably not but it’s easy money. You’d be mad not to for what’s probably half a days work.

If I was a serious actor, I'd give McDonalds a miss.

That definitely wasn't a pen.

He never appealed

Seen Chavs and Leic one out games whilst leading...not many on here confident we can keep clean sheet! We simply don't defend with much conviction to justify that faith.

Leicester didn't at Bournemouth.

MalcolmTucker · Jul 16, 2020

TFM and McTominay are definitely playing safer and it's killing our flow a bit - hopefully both grow into the game as they get more comfortable.

Martial and Rashford have been good, Bruno has got better as the game has gone on. Hopefully we step up a bit.

2 man midfield · Jul 16, 2020

That pen is a tricky one. My initial reaction was he got the ball, then i watched it slowed down and thought it was a pen. Then I watched it a few more times and can’t decide.

It’s not one player or the other. Every player in the first half touched the ball and stood still for a second or two, almost every single time. Even if they are tired they have to move the ball quicker and we will score a couple. We have to.

We've all played the game and know what it's like when you're too tired and your legs aren't as responsive as your thoughts. It's not as simple as just knowing to move the ball quicker, or move into space better.

Tbf Maguire slowed it down even more. Six touches like every time. Somewhat devoid of options though. Probably wise for Rashford to come inside and offer that extra option.

We needed to slow the pace down in all honesty and just take the sting out of the game.

How many times will this pen get mentioned

DWelbz19 · Jul 16, 2020

I’d get Fred (or Matic) on for McTominay. He’s not really up to much

When they slap that cheque down in front of you, you may think differently.

Annihilate Now! · Jul 16, 2020

Very rarely hear the studio ref go against the on field ref...so that's telling.

He did say it wasn't clear and obvious, which the bias in me tends to agree with

Random Task · Jul 16, 2020

For the love of chicken gravy, please get the three points tonight.

How did he used to be a winger?

Thank god he moved to right back because he wouldn’t make it past league 2 level as a winger

Inigo Montoya · Jul 16, 2020

I’m listening to peter Drury and Andy Townsend.

They’ve been good to listen to

More times than you've seen Roy Carroll's 'save'.

fecking this.

Stop chatting about the pen!

Well played greenwood

Scott playing two hospital passes already.

United Hobbit · Jul 16, 2020

My Liverpool supporting boyfriend was incensed it wasn't a penalty :lol:

(apparently it would have been if it was us)

RedPed · Jul 16, 2020

We really need to rack up some goals against Palace and Wham before the showdown with Leicester.

What maniac is that?

Check the Ole out thread.

A good first XI is all you need apparently.

I'm not entirely sure he's being 100% honest or if it just suits his position.

Ordinary saves.

Ordinary for him.

Bastian · Jul 16, 2020

Why not give a free kick there?

I only know of one poster who doesn't think the squad should need strengthening. Are there more?

He's not and never will be a Manchester United player. He found his level at Palace.

I'd rather throw him in than James, who needs a loan.

Nori- · Jul 16, 2020

Ole, please do NOT take off Pogba and Fernandes unless we take a 2/3 goal lead.

Not majorly fussed about the FA cup, we can rotate the squad for that. The Prems priority

Team've got license to kick greenwood.

United Hobbit · Jul 16, 2020

we need another goal at least or the whole half is squeaky bum time

To be fair, I swear you post something about your other half being fuming about something every game at the moment :lol:

Must be highly entertaining!

Inigo Montoya · Jul 16, 2020

Greenwood fouled. Plays on but then doesn’t boob the palace player

TsuWave · Jul 16, 2020

look at the way martial won that corner

Has to be wrong, Cafe said he is playing shite.

diarm · Jul 16, 2020

We need a corner kick coach. It's about 10 years overdue at this stage.

Who said Martial was lazy?

SirAnderson · Jul 16, 2020

Martial, Rashford scored, over to you Son.

Our corner coach has made his mark on Bruno already
