Our results since Ole's latter reign have really been disastrous, so many dickings and one sided wins where teams manage the game from half time onwards. We're like a playground bully, if you stand up to us and pressure us we won't fight back, we will just foldAlways remember, Newcastle beat us 3-0 at home this season with kids and 3 RBs playing in defence.
Ffs then you don't play a double pivot with a teenager who is an #8 and another #8 who cannot run longer than ten minutes, with the third #8 who can't defend as a #10Not making any excuses for ETH, but did anyone seriously expect any different with us starting with Evans and Casemiro at CB? That’s Maguire, Licha, Lindelof and Varane out. (Even Shaw who is a very capable CB)
There was no time last season where we played some of the “best football in Europe” and the “best defensive record in the league”.It did kind of work last year. Best defensive record in the league and at one point playing some of the best football in Europe.
Personally however I do think he should have made concessions and gone back to Ole ball. But people said they wanted progressive football and he is biting the bullet and trying to bring that.
However how do you fix players generally just being terrible?
Nah I think what we saw last year was a better footballer with more intelligence than Bruno and McT knowing where to position himself. He just hasn’t been played as much this season.
We still played that 3-1-6 when being offensive which is exactly what we are still trying to do, just now Cas is fecked more than last season and hasn’t been available to play with Mainoo in midfield.
Again the issue is more how poor we are at executing simple football and how often we turn over possesion and then not having the athletic ability in midfield to get back when we lose the ball. Something that shouldn’t be happening as often as it does. Add in the defence not coming up again because they don’t have any recovery space to recover anything in behind.
There is still a massive rebuild in progress but it’s just a lack of knowledge of ball that has people stating their is no style or system.
Do think However it is somewhat naive of ETH to Stick with it given his job and reputation is on the line. Especially with the casuals that can’t see the finer details.
Don’t judge him on this team. He’s a far better player than he’s shown this season and any striker would have struggled. It’s systemic not all down to the individuals.He's terrible, we laugh at Nunez but good lord.
How many of Casemiro's lunges or tackles actually come off? Maybe we should just promote an under 18 into the team to play defence.
Which rules?
Oh, absolutely. Almost as much as the hard on you have for the bald man.As if, other than United losing (are you happy with the scoreline or is not enough conceded yet?) I'm the only thing that has given your evening any meaning.
This gotta be, by far, Casemiro's worst ever game
