Such a dumb argument. Leicester won the league with bunch of anonymous players that played as a team.Second-half kick-offI hope the inability to bring in a new midfielder this summer doesn't come back to bite us in the ass.
We were getting dominated before the goal.Second-half kick-off
No changes at the breakPogba has played for France in that position and he was not half as good as he played further forward. This is crazy. Ole trying to put round pegs into square holes. We are not playing as a team but as 11 individuals. We never played like this and why try it now.A little more conviction at the sharp end and there are more goals for United here. Examples include: Shaw's weak cutback, that needs to be decisive and sharp; Rashford's flick, again that needs to be simple and decisive; Martial generally in terms of getting a shot off - getting that shot off will force a defender to close more quickly next time, opening space for others.Good start
Bloody hell
How do you get 1.3 goals?
The problem stemmed from Rashford not tracking AzpiMaguire flattened Zouma there
And after it.
I've never seen a United player with such a low passing stat in a half. Ever.
Don't worry, give it a few months and Bissaka will turn into Darmian.We need to get the 2nd goal if we want to win this one.
Both teams look about 4th place worthy. We are still a level below the top 2-3 based on todays showing.
However, its a big game and chelski are up for it too. It was never going to be easy and historically they have gotten the better of us many times.
We just need to improve a bit more in our link up play and the strikers need to be clinical.
I wonder what changes Ole will make? Dan James incoming?
Not sly if its true.Our attack is fine. We have potential contributors on the bench. The real problem is the midfield. Pogba and Andreas have been horrible. Pogba seems a bit bigger, his touch, movement...its just really off. Hopefully he gets better. He's leaving mctominay really exposed. Lingard is a bit invisible, but still provides a counter threat.I dont understand why we're so narrow off the ball.
Of course it is going to bite us in the arse maybe even today.
Some objectivity would be most welcome here.
That doesn't change the fact they always raise their game against us.46 min
Quick start by Chelsea and they win a corner almost straight from the restart.
I saw it mentioned online that Chelsea warmed up for ten minutes more than us before the game. Would that make a big difference?This playing out from the back stuff isn’t good for my heartoh look good start hahaha46 min
The corner comes in and Zouma can only head it well wide for a goal-kick.
Not great, decent. I’m fully confident we will win this. We caught Chelsea on several occasions, better final ball/finish and it’s in. The two shots that hit the woodwork were from individual errors, they haven’t been able to open us up properly.Only 45 minutes so let’s be careful with to harsh judgments.
45% possession at home tells us that our 4231 formation needs more quality up front. Pereira and Lingard runs a lot but their overall quality isn’t good enough. Maybe 433 suits us better?
What’s worrying is our slow build ups and that we are so unsynchronized in our pressing game.
OK. Solskjaer let’s show managerial skills and change things that don’t work.
It's an indirect go at the whole team. They voted Shaw player's player in a deliberate attempt to render Jose pissed.We've defended great I think. AWB probably our best defender so far. Midfield apart from McTominay is lacking. Pogba still can't stop dwelling on the ball, he's been caught out twice. Lingard has pressed well but otherwise hasn't done much. Good penalty by Rashford but he and Martial have been sloppy in overall play (Rashford stop with the flicks).
Chelsea have played well I think.
Must have pained him seeing Shaw win POTYPerfect example of Pogba there. Pops the ball back to Lindelof but a terrible pass up to his chest. Timing is off.
1.3 goalsevery time i see ole's number two, I think it's bloody phil neville!
That means its going according to expectations. We bought well for the defence. The Midfield was always going to be the issue after the feck-up by Woodward/Matt Judge.
The fact that Rashford is our highest rated player is astounding. Purely because of the penalty surely.Aaron "One man team" Bissaka
Re Neville's comment, I'd much rather United continued to play. That awful nervous retreat and capitulation once a lead is established has been one of the most depressing traits of the last few years.
I like it. Would you rather Smashley and Mike Smalling hammering out hoofball? It's Ole's influence.
Probably might have! They looked much better at the start.
They are and they became fans because were winning every week - now we aren't very good they don't know what to do.
He wasn't wrong though. If you're talking about him saying Maguire needing to cover for Shaw a lot.
xG probablySloppy passing from both sides really. Its a tight game and the nerves seem to be in full force.- Status
