How is our attack fine? Can't dribble past a man between them. Defending against them is pretty easy.What is it with Rashford/Martial and flicks?
Surely even they must know that they never come off?'Rashy' can feck off with his constant flicks as well.
You'll always get idiots who are over the top but there's nothing wrong with pointing out where we are falling short either. It's a fine line.
Agreed. I might write a little thread on it after the game because I think ole is doing the right thing - not asking both wingers to tuck in as full backs as we have done for years. Doesn't seem like we actually have the quality or confidence to punish teams on the break, especially not if pogba has a bad game, but the intent is there. Will force our new and very expensive defence to improve and stand on their own two feet.The non-purchase of midfielders is the greatest oversight in the club's modern history.Maybe James on for Lingard?
Just like the days of Sir Alex. Who needs central midfielders?
This game is getting worse
So far looks like that is exactly what's going to happen.
One thing I'll say is that pairing Andreas AND Lingard isn't a good combo.
Yep. I would love him to succeed but it's definitely worrying to see us start like this. All i can see is us running around like headless chickens with no quality to show for it. If this was Mourinho, people would be going crazy right now. Not being backed in the transfer market doesn't excuse poor coaching. Poch got to a champions league final last season with no signings. I expect much better.Pogba's been hanging around Lukaku too much, he looks a bit on the chucky side. Seems off the pace as well
Hit the woodwork twice? One shot straight at DDG when straight in on goal.....I wish we would stop with these fancy flicks that never come off and end up conceding possession in the middle of the park.
Our young attackers need to learn how to trap and play a good pass, rather than a backheel flick without any vision of the other player.You fecking blind bastard, lino.
Rasher is a streaky player.What an interception from our 80mil signing!Maguire has saved us today.We are so sloppy.
Martial feeling something.Maybe James on for Lingard?
Just like the days of Sir Alex. Who needs central midfielders?
249 in 753, for an attacking mid those numbers just ain't gonna get it done if we want to challenge.
Grumpy, probably.
So many of our players just don’t learnWhy did Tyler say it was good to see Sir Bobby at OT, like he isn’t there at every single game?So many simple balls gone astray.They keep losing momentum with bad passes in attack.
But...none of them are goals. Let alone a 1.3 goal.Pereira is a pretty pointless player. Looks busy but never does anything substantial like getting a tackle in.Why can't Pogba just do the simple thing instead of trying to make everything tricky?Ole's team talk must have said 'do a few more flicks and it will all come together'
yep scoring increases rating by like 1.0
I'm too lazy to find the poster you commented on, but agree with it too!
Every year its 2012 for us.
I like it too, but it’ll take a while to make me confident we won’t feck up while doing it.Jimmy, Jimmy. Wherefore art thou Jimmy.. Our midfield needeth thou
He hasnt been looking well for years.
Not really. They look as disjointed as us. They are passing a bit better because they had Sarri for a year, it won't be long before they sit back and start hoofing and crossing aimlessly.
I think he's saying we should be 1-3 down no?Lingard and Pereira need to be subbed pronto. Adding absolutely nothing.
Great, so it means he's doing his job!why the feck aren't people coming back to help defend? lingard/martial/rashford51 min
Chelsea work the ball from our right to the opposite flank and Pedro gets a shot away which deflects wide for a corner.
He's 81.- Status
