Leeds United 0:2 Manchester United

Superunknown · Feb 12, 2023

Weghorst needs to do something in this game to justify his selection. I'm just not seeing it with him, but the truth is that we have very few options for that specific position.

Fooks sake Owen commenting again! Wish they’d pick another ex United player any other ex United player… Annoying little cnut!

Weghorst plays every game because he's dutch, there can't be any other reasons. Absolutely fecking ridiculous to start him every game based on his performances. If we'd gotten a better striker in we'd still be in the title race.

Yeah, because he’s Dutch!!! That’s the real reason :lol:

His love of weghorst could be his downfall, if we don't get top 4 then big questions have to be asked about ten hag judgement with team selections, I thought we had seen the last of favouring big lumps up front when mourinho left

Only clueless people would ask those big questions, main thing is progress, which is obvious thing to see.

Putting Maguire in for this is batshit crazy.

Wait till you see him start against Barcelona.

OmarUnited4ever · Feb 12, 2023

Worrying line up with Maguire at CB and no DM to protect the backline, but I still expect a win today, this is a chance to cement top 4 with Newcastle & Spurs dropping points.

Happy to see Sancho starting today.

Suv666 · Feb 12, 2023

Why the feck is Maguire starting?
Are Martinez and Varane injured?

The Dane · Feb 12, 2023

Fred needs to treat this as a career defining game. One more shit show like Wednesday and he should be shown the door

redshaw · Feb 12, 2023

ETH is trying to integrate Weghorst and hope it can pay off for the later stages, perhaps Dalot can get him some service. If it's not happening in this game he can move Rashford down the middle and put on Garnacho.

Weghorst has looked ok linking up with our best team but now we have injuries/suspensions he's looking a lot worse and less involved. I don't think we've offered much to him in all his time here but he's been a good foil up front if we have our best players like Eriksen and Case.

We’ve massively regressed since Weghorst came into the team.

Because he's rotating like 99% of Redcafe want him to.

Dan_F · Feb 12, 2023

If he knew he needed to rotate the centre backs, surely you do that for the home fixture, or rest one first choice centre back at a time.

All a bit strange.

Prodigy24 · Feb 12, 2023

High levels of inbred in the Leeds stands.

Same. Perhaps unfair at this stage, but he has looked like a big lump so far. Well below standard. Let’s see how the big man goes.

Need something from Wouty today.

Nah, it's where you rotate and when. We had an FA Cup game against Reading at home. That was a chance to rotate. We could also have rotated quite a bit in the 2nd leg against Forest in the League Cup. This is Leeds away and we looked absolutely piss poor against them at home. And he goes with the same midfield, and Dalot at right back next to a centre back with no recovery pace against their danger man. Seems to me that he's calculating that top 4 will be achievable and that he wants to go full strength in the Europa.

Are you telling me Erik can actually beat the caf's tendency to panic about lineups?!

Bruno or Sancho on the right?

DJ_21 · Feb 12, 2023

rashford and sancho will probably do a lot of interchanging.

NoLogo · Feb 12, 2023

A better start then last time would be great. Common boys.

I think Sancho, possible they rotate though

Seems crazy not to start Martinez then. we surely aren't going to have Shaw/maguire in the Nou Camp

Varane is who is rested for the Barca game. It'll be Shaw and Varane. Martinez our for the game so its forced.

The Firestarter · Feb 12, 2023

Rashford on the right is getting annoying

Edit: the graph was wrong!

mikeyt · Feb 12, 2023

Leeds forwards have pace, Maguire doesn't = Why is he starting!?

studs · Feb 12, 2023

We've already seen that Leeds can score against us, not once but twice. I wonder why Ten hag would play maguire, he's going to be swinging out of anything that passes him.

Yes, he is downgrade from Martial, but "massively" and that being only his fault and not including injuries, Casemiro red, thick game calendar bringing fatigue etc? That is being massively biased against him. That is simply, objectively, not true.

He won't be, surely not.

Jazz · Feb 12, 2023

Just seen the line up why on earth is Rafa and Martinez on the bench...

kidbob · Feb 12, 2023

Come on Jadon, another great performance please!

No Idea For Nickname · Feb 12, 2023

Come ooooon United.
Manchester United!

3-0 United. Leeds to will start fast and be gassed after 20 minutes.

The thought of giving a championship striker minutes to help him integrate is amusing

I get the Shaw starting at CB and Malacia Lb for practice for Thursday. But it was an opportunity to play Martinez CDM instead of Fred. I’ve never been a big advocate of playing Martinez at CDM because of how good he is at CB, but in this unique circumstance I certainly think Martinez would not perform less than Fred would in that position. Anyway let’s see how we get on. I fear Fred will get the life pressed out of him today.

Ten Hag has said at Ajax that Martinez doesn't have the legs for CDM in his opinion, so I don't really think he sees him as an option there

PoTMS · Feb 12, 2023

Weghorst better fecking score today. Hopefully today is the last we see him start for a while. He can start against West Ham in the cup.

kidbob · Feb 12, 2023
