Their energy is unbelievable.feck me. Someone play James in there. He made the run about 4 timesJust not good enoughCome on don’t do this, City will punish you more than any other PL team if we defend too much.We're struggling at the moment. Need to get some possession and slow the game downThe feck pass was that from Rashford.McTominay and Fred's passing is just so average for the level we want to be at.KDB is utterly useless here. He will be lucky to appear in the second half.So we do seem to have problem stringing a couple of passes together which is a worry so early. City have not really troubled our goal but they are really tiring us out by letting the ball do their work while we chase everything.We don't treat the ball with care, do we? Very casual with it
I know i know" The red raiders" wtfMcTs passing is so so poorJesus our passing is fecking atrocious. Having to remind myself that getting angry at inanimate objects will have no bearing on United's ability to improve.mcfreds passing makes my eyes bleed
PED’s
Yup. Both terrible liabilties out of possession - so they need to offer A LOT on the ball to make up for it.
Statistically Rashford's among the worst in Europe for pressures and defensive contribution. Martial not much better.
seemingly he needs an operation and a month or two offOur midfielders cannot fecking pass the ball.
I wanted him to play today, but too often now he’s just sat in the middle of a City passing triangle.Please tell me we're letting them have the ball as part of a counter-attacking masterplan...
Ah I still havent seen the team sheet, I thought he was fit against Palace.Not too impressed by City so far, been on a great run, but hard to be terrified of a team with Gabriel Jesus as their main striker.
Especially since he is a midfielderA yellow for that???Is Mctominay sick? He seems to really be struggling, hands on knees during every breakLuke Shaw is legitimately our most consistent playerNever a yellow
+1 Why are we so horrible (in every game) at pass accuracy? It should be the easiest skill, in comparison, to hone in training.Every time we get the ball we just give it straight back to them, we have to get better at retaining it in the big gamesThe feck is that a yellow?A yellow for what exactly?!
He just came back from injury, may need some time to get his fitness back.Ref booking Maguire. Hope he starts booking their playersAgainst the better teams, we're not going to be able to control games unless our passing improves. The next player that steps into our midfield needs to be someone who can keep hold of the ball and spot/make passes, both short and long. We give the ball away way too much.A game we need Pogba in. No one to play the long ball to JamesFeck sake Maguire, that was unnecessary.
Looks like he got the ball though, but took out Jesus in the process, I think...The amount of anti-footballers in our team is so apparent every time we play city. Let's hope we can get lucky with a counter-attack or two and put another one past them.- Status
