Basically every criticism against Ole encapsulated within one half of football.
This will be the end of the manager if he can’t develop.You can see the flaws in the Arsenal team yet we’re making them look so much better. Hate the way we do this all the time. We can’t handle it when there’s expectation on us to win hence our terrible home form. Need changed quickly 2nd half.3.5 home games into the league season and yet to win a half or even put in a good one.
Arsenal look a bit toothless, but we cannot get out of our own half. Home league form is a really worry.
I expect Cavani on for Greenwood fairly early on.I said it in the last game. Feck the diamond. Our players average IQ is so low they cant adapt to any other formation but the 4231 and even that they struggle with after 2 games.Don't know what to make of thatGame is set up perfectly for a Bruno Penandes special.No added time ?
Anyway, pretty weird how we can't replicate our CL performance in PL so far. Against PSG and RB we looked like a potential CL winner or something, but then we have such games against Chelsea and Arsenal ?
But there's a good thing, that we got past such period without conceding. Arsenal will probably get tired as the game goes on and we definitely have a good chance at winning this with it standing at 0-0 so far.Absolutely pathetic. Can't play out of the press. Can't keep the ball. Can't even press because Arsenal are winning every long ball they play. Playing at walking pace at home against a rival when we haven't won a home league game all season. Utter disgrace in terms of mentality. Only positive is that we haven't conceded yet so we could still turn it around.
Changes, either in terms of personnell or setup needed desperatelyA shambles.
Everything Arsenal do is slick and fast. We're playing in slow motion by comparison.
Our piss poor attempts at pressing is pointless.
Greenwood and Rashford can't handle the slightest physical confrontation.
Fred is having one of his nightmares.
We will be blessed to get a point from this.I would bring on Cavani for Greenwood, and preferably VDB for McTominay, but I think the card situation likely forces Fred to be subbed off instead. I don't think the formation is the problem as much as the players' performance level and their inability to deal with pressure so far.
Honestly, yeah. It’s pretty shameful from us here.Ole needs to change it. We cannot get the ball to Bruno at all.
Bring on VDB and take off Pogba i feel.Mike Dean: stops play for an injury.
Also Mike Dean: adds no stoppage time for injuries.
Pretty much what I think. VDB would help in bringing the ball out.Stinker of a half. Need to get one of the mids off and get Cavani in the middle, and Rash and Greenwood wide.
Fred is playing about 2cm off the centre backs and doesn't have the ball playing to be the playmaker from there.
This seems a system that wastes the best features of at least 3 of the mids.Incredibly shit half from us. And can we please stop being fannies? The reason we cant beat their press is because not a single player takes any responsibility besides Rashford and at times Bruno. Everyone is just passing it sideways and does not try to get forward unless they have acres of space in front of themPogba and MCT off for Donny and CavaniSome really unintelligent play. First few mintues we gave away possession with some outrageous cross field passes in our own half.
Painful half, lucky to be 0-0. Let’s hope for a reaction 2nd half.Cavani should have started this game, its too physical for Rashford/GreenwoodA dreadful blight on our reputation as a football club, mitigated only by the realization that Arsenal just put in their top performance possible but still scarcely managed to make De Gea break a sweat.Back 4 and McT and Fred are all fecking crap on the ball. Worst half of football I've seen in a long time.Some fans are so delusional that they don’t realize that this was how good rb Leipzig were before we trounced them. Arsenal will regret those missed chance. I expect a more high intensity United next half, and perhaps a sketchy goal to give our players more confidence.McTominay’s movement to show for the ball is a joke. He may as well just drift even further right and take a seat on the bench.
Pairing up with AWB on the right they’ve got to be the least technical pairing in the league. We’re not playing out the right side with them anyway.The diamond isn't working. They are pressing really high up the pitch (something that we should be doing). Just seem really slow and not at the races today. Reality check.Shite. Playing like they don't care that we're languishing 15th in the table. No cohesion or urgency whatsoever.Matic and Donny for Fred and McTominay please.Bit of a nothing game so far. Football needs a crowd.
Exceptionally rare to see no injury time isn't it!no urgency and too slow.Mctominay looking like the midfield version of Dan James. Bring in Matic for Fred and Donny for Mctominay. Fred is doing well, just worried that second yellow is coming.What a crap half of football.
We have created absolutely nothing other than the Greenwood opportunity.
Need to play far better 2nd half otherwise I can’t see us getting anything in this game.Such a difficult team to watch. So many players can't string two games together without reverting to calamitous or just shite. CL will only mask Ole out talk for a while if we continue to be shit in our own league.
Big half needed and some bottle to be shown.Arsenal with most of the ball away from home at Old Trafford with 52.5% of the ball
Fred has again been poor in the first half again like against Leizpeg, but not just him. McTominay doesnt seem to offer anything on the right and Pogba and Fernandes have struggled to get on the ball and make something happen.impressed with Arsenal, they press well and are solid on the back. Arteta tactically is much better than Ole and Lampard.
Pretty sure he was just doing us all a favour so we didn't have to watch any more of that shite.Arsenal dominated us, had the clear chances and we just can't get a hold. Serious changes need to happen.Matic on for McTominay pleaseMajor improvement required 2nd half. Average Arsenal outfit made look decent in that 1st half.- Status
