They're certainly triers!Why do they need so many touches?Martinez good, Fred bad
Neither can FredFred still doing Fred thingsMidfielders nowhere to be found to receive the ball
Plenty of players get out of there elegantly. Fred is just an accident in posession.
Wait until you see FdJ
If we are to become a possesion based team those situations can't be a problem.As usual need some creativity to get through the Brighton defenceSo afraid, Dalot. So afraid.McT alot more forward than usual, interesting. He can't play dm so it might fit him.Harry and Martinez are passing well
He’s posting Poch’s CV out to all the big clubs in Europe10mins in, too early for ETH out ??Cheeky cross to the back post there Dalot ffs.
He’s overwhelmed
Can't believe people constantly defend himWhat is the point of Dalot? Could have crossed it or played in Sancho, dithered, turned backwards and then puts Eriksen in troublecan see us ramping up efforts for a right back after thisMaguire slowing things down and pointing as usual.First ten mins and we can see again how incompetent this midfield is.Simply cannot rely on a midfield of McFred to move the ball effectivelyMartinez is dictating play at the back, very happy to see someone take the lead. Won't be surprised if he turns out to be our next captain.Amazing how McT goes in hiding mode when we start from the back.
Yes. They are a bundle of nerves.
Erik needs to get the sports psychology up and running. Been happening for consecutive seasons..McFred doing McFred things
Barca watching McFred and adding a few more millions to FDJ price.very nervous start for us.
Bruno should have buried that chance.Fred hasn't inspired me with much confidence that he can be our dm this season
More forward position means the space even more tight. Lets see if he can work the ball out.
Sad isn't it? He had all the time in the world to deliver a cross but chooses instead to pass it back to Eriksen.Shocking we are contemplating going into the season with this squad. Its obvious how crap we are.
He doesn’t need to be captain, we just need more players like him who take responsibility for what’s happening and don’t stand around looking for someone to blame instead
Let’s be fair, give him 5 more minutes!
Yup. Worrying for sure.Eriksen (head +number) give me slight Alan Smith vibesMcFred’s almost unwatchable.
There is no midfield, its just Fred. McTominay is more a CF atm than a CMConsistent thing through pre season to have 1 midfielder playing with the CB's and the nominal partner to be super high, almost like a 4-1-4-1.
On the ball at least.- Status
