Tactics getting ripped apart on Sky.

How dare they? Don't they know there's injuries and EtH didn't get De Jong or Kane????

I say longer, think it will be 3-4 seasons before we challenge and that's getting every signing bang on

Plus foot injury, muscle injury and metatarsal injury.

Hence me saying breaking his foot in the post you quoted and replied to.

I find it interesting that even though we try very hard to press, we never seem to get the ball, always a step too slow, whereas the opponent can just break up our attack easily and the transition looks so seamless.

Ekeke · May 6, 2024

Evans is not a premier league quality defender

He’s also NOT a centre half.

Not the point. Anytime he gets remotely near the ball he throws himself over.

Genuinely McFred was better set up than any midfield this season, and thats saying something...

"Let's let him finish the season"

Great idea

jasT1981 · May 6, 2024

IF we lose this. And we most likely will. The most points we can get is 63.

For Context, our season with Moyes we finished on 64.

Always confused when people say this as it quite evident there is a style of play and patterns that are repeated. It’s just most of our players aren’t up to task and make stupid errors.

Most of the players at Palace would be considered not good enough for our team, how are they able to help their team keep the ball and sustain attacks and defend?

Then look at us, so many gaps in the team, players struggle to find a team mate to pass to.

I get the injuries, you cannot go through a season without any but any player that comes in should know what the team is trying to do.

Right now it's like hoof ball from Onana or let's pray Garnacho can do something.

A Manchester United manager should be able to organise a team, this guy can't

SouthMancRed · May 6, 2024

We were going to Palace expecting to get cuffed and that is exactly what is happening. That is the level we are at. It should be unreal but it isn't. Can see the same again in the second half with 4 or 5 not being over pessimistic. To Palace. This is where we are.

De gea saves that

Probably why he’s got a massive queue of clubs wanting to sign him.

you’ll notice absolutely no mention about Onana at all on the analysis. Strange that when they’re slagging literally everything else

I don’t think so. The prize money if nothing else would help ffp.

Shouldn’t Ten Hag be playing a style that suits the players at his disposal then? Something about the definition of insanity…

Gary Neville pretty much asked this and he pretty much said it’s not in his nature to play defensive football. He was tasked with bringing progressive football to United and that is what he plans to do.

Think everyone knows with the current crop of players the best option would probably be to sit back and try to break on teams. Ole ball basically, We don’t have the players to be able to play progressive football.

Do you have us losing by only 2?

i remember as a kid, seeing us beaten 5-0 at Selhurst... it could easily be that again tonight. Pretty likely to concede again in first 10-15 of second half. I was also there the night we all but sealed our first PL title. that team and this one are from different universes

Jamie saying take Casemiro off and put AWB at CB. That's how bad he's been. Mad.

At least he would be moved out of left back

Sure, of course I am. Are you gonna be following your bald overlord to Bayern?

Dude, you hate watch a football team you supposedly support and hope they get beat because you don't like the manager.
When this guy gets the sack you won't know what to do with yourself.

If either of us is likely to follow him to his next club it's you so you can be miserable somewhere else as well as on here.

The midfield set up is asinine, we say this every game and the Ten Hag defenders never seem to be able give a defense of the tactics.

Thought it was a stupid decision even at the time, we got 10m for one of the only good runners/engines in the entire midfield.

This is why you don't play a high pressing system when you don't have the players for it. Casemiro, Evans, Eriksen-they have been done at the highest levels for quite some time. Yet instead of employing a system that protects their lack of pace, we choose to expose it. EtH has let an entire season slip by already, what's one more game, right? And that's the state we're in. It's not even a surprise any more.

This is the truth. I can't believe we're playing this way, it is so obviously and visibly senseless.

Moyesys United would spank us right now.

Beachryan · May 6, 2024

Imagine making one of the most decorated players in the modern era your captain for the night, asking him to fill in at CB as your squad is absolutely destroyed and then he goes and twice gets done one in and the other practically in the opposition half.

ETH should have hauled him off to make a point, even if he has no one else to put on.

Also having seen the two replays, why are people blaming Onana? I'm annoyed his passing his been poor, but those two goals are hardly his fault. People seeing what they want here.

Disappointed by Mount, no idea where he's playing or what he's supposed to be doing but not being involved at all is not a good look.

Total clear out needed.

Not entirely although there will be a few departures. I do think we have a few decent players who are being made to look bad by the ridiculous tactics such as the constantly mentioned insane amount of space we allow teams in midfield. I think the younger players especially are being set up to fail and could change a few opinions in a better coached team.

Alemar · May 6, 2024

It’s a problem when 10 players have been utter garbage in the first half. Only Garnacho was probably just “poor”, but all the rest … beyond dreadful

AdNani · May 6, 2024

I don’t see any good in keeping Ten Hag anymore. At least get an interim in till the end of the season and get a bounce hopefully. At least give us a chance in the final l.

stu_1992 · May 6, 2024

So deflating. This is a clear game where injuries are fecking us. Just a huge gap for their first goal which you would hope wouldn't happen if we had a proper defense.

Then the second, Evans getting absolutely skinned. I can't blame him too much, he's probably not properly fit. Hasn't played for a while. It's just insane we're at this point.

That was Kambwala, who also got injured. We've been absolutely cursed this season.

I’d rather play an 18yr center back (Jackson is it on the bench) than Casemiro or Evans. He might get physically bullied but he’d have the legs to play higher up the pitch.

Is it possible that we're throwing these last few matches to ensure that we're not going to qualify for the Conference League?

No we just simply aren't good enough to make it.

We're a bottom 3rd side in a position that massively flatters us.

Another £30m+ hole in the transfer funds for the summer.

I just dream about waking up to the news that ETH has been sacked

Yeah. Said it over and over again. Injuries or no injuries, the team doesn't look like a well coached team. That's not down to the players quality.

Mainoo is going to need a lot of physical development over the next couple of years, really bar a few flashes he has struggled greatly since his international debut.

Hes been poor tonight but the kid is being shafted by the fact the midfield other than him is non existent. A decent set up and he will be a cracking player.
