Ahmer Baig · Dec 15, 2024

At least Ole got results against Man City. *hides*

I’m really not liking this new system of play at all . 6 defensive players and we still end up conceding every game.

We’ve conceded from a corner, we’ve been far the better team and we’re much more solid all round.

BaguetteBoy · Dec 15, 2024

How is that a foul by Martinez ffs

Atheist · Dec 15, 2024

Bruno must be bribing people at the club to take corners. What an absolute embarrassment

Ace of Spades · Dec 15, 2024

What the feck are we doing on set pieces ?

bosnian_red · Dec 15, 2024

Fine, but we need more confidence/purpose in the attacking third.

Also, we need to figure out our set pieces

Dargonk · Dec 15, 2024

Ok first half, but nothing great. Team has shown good intensity, but our final third just isn't threatening.

OldSchoolManc · Dec 15, 2024

That was just weak from De Bruyne. No way United get that

Adz_99 · Dec 15, 2024

It's all so depressingly predictable.

The worst part is we're not even playing that badly. There's just no goal threat. Can't see us scoring 1, never mind the 3 we'd need to win the game.

Gabriel Djemba-Bebe · Dec 15, 2024

Such a frustrating half. We didn't counter with enough urgency and instead gave them time to get numbers behind the ball. Unlucky goal to give away as well.

Minkaro · Dec 15, 2024

I can’t help but feel we’re playing City’s reputation rather than what’s actually on the pitch. We’re fully capable of winning this, but we’ve got to believe it.

I hate Ten Hag more and more every game for assembling this squad.

Yup

Matt851 · Dec 15, 2024

Martinez is just braindead, when you aren't any god at defending set pieces don't give them away pointlessly

Hugh Jass · Dec 15, 2024

Was decent up until the goal. Thought we were better. Another corner though. Will probably get hammered now.

Gazautd18 · Dec 15, 2024

We're going to break this manager as well aren't we.

Heinzesight · Dec 15, 2024

I’d just like highlight the fact Anthony Taylor is still a twat.

MonkeysMagic · Dec 15, 2024

When a team has no creativity, set pieces are invaluable but it's hard to find a more dumbest set of footballers that simply do not understand the basics of football that's our biggest issue.

laughtersassassin · Dec 15, 2024

Tbh we weren't awful or anything. Just an annoying goal to concede

We're not above being relegated.

I don't think it will happen, but it's a serious possibility. Absolutely nothing in attack. Nothing.

This is the most serious threat of relegation since the seventies. We just lack most of the things a PL team needs, horrific squad building by Ten Hag/Murtough and Ole/Woodward before them.

It is not his faul that Amorim wants to use a formation, we do not have the right players for.

big_jeffstar · Dec 15, 2024

This should be another loss for city…. If we could actually remember how to play football for a few minutes

He’s the worst I’ve seen in a very long time, how he’s still taking them is beyond me.

SER19 · Dec 15, 2024

So disappointing. A nothing city team, that we've treated like peak city cheat team.

8 goals conceded from corners already in league this season. Almost half the goals we concede. Should be ashamed of themselves

Freak · Dec 15, 2024

Our wing backs haven’t been very good. Other than that our general shape and has been good. We need to create more in attack though

BaguetteBoy · Dec 15, 2024

That wasn’t a bad half by us at all. Can’t believe I’ll say this but maybe Antony instead of Dalot?

RedRocket9908 · Dec 15, 2024

We arent even going to score in this game are we? We have shown no urgency to get the ball in to the City box and our main tactic when attacking is to play it to Amad who is always offside

3 shots on goal, 0 on target in 45 minutes.

I don't care which way you try to spin it, that's absolutely tumescent.

Spurs turned up and whomped them 4-0 ffs.

What are you trying to say then? That the new manager who is just a month into his job in the middle is the season is awful? Some of you deserve to be miserable.

saivet · Dec 15, 2024

Not to say we've been good but I've seen promising signs from us today. We need to be more confident in the final third. It's not just an attacker perspective but the midfielders and wings backs aren't offering enough.

The three CBs haven't been progressive in their passing either.

The corner situation is a problem but one that should be resolveable. It's not like we have a small team, but our organisation and strategy just isn't working in defending or attacking (poor deliveries too) them .

Scottynaldinho · Dec 15, 2024

Not long before we see Maguire at CF threads. Have we not seen enough of Antony to know that he shouldn't be near the first team?

Chairman Steve · Dec 15, 2024

Our attack is letting us down. Basically kids up front.

That’s the difference between this game and when Spurs played here. They had Son, Solanke, Kulusevski and Maddison up front.

mav_9me · Dec 15, 2024

We've done ok. But they've been poor too. They got lucky with their goal, but credit to Gvardiol for adjusting to finish.

El Jefe · Dec 15, 2024

We’re defending a lot better than under EtH but if we keep going down to set pieces we’ll be putting ourselves at a massive disadvantage because we just can’t score.

We aren’t a team that can consistently win games being a goal down. Our attack is horrible.

Sanchez7 · Dec 15, 2024

Much like the first half of the arsenal game, we have been decent but just don’t have good enough players in attack to punish their high line. They have the more decisive players, tactically it is even imo

I think we have already half broken him.

Dannn411 · Dec 15, 2024

We are fine defensively but this far too timid going forward. Everybody is scared to take a shot.

Dalot has been absolutely fecking dire.

The fact he was once POTY is a good as indication as anything of how bad United are post-Ferguson.

Chumpsbechumps · Dec 15, 2024

City have won one in their last 10 games.

We’d be at least 3 down against city of last season.

kouroux · Dec 15, 2024

We are as threatening as a newborn. There is nothing to create in this system with these players.
Dalot is a fecking moron, I had to say it
