No Idea For Nickname
Patroness Saint of the anti-RAWKites
We had sun in our eyes in the first half, that is why we did not score 6 goals. Second half, we won' have that problem.
That's football. We could possibly make only 5 shots in the 2nd and end up scoring 2 more.
Now this is looking like ETH's Ajax. There's such a nice balance here between all the positional duos: when Rashford moves to the wing, Sabitzer goes up to cover him, but when Rashford returns Sabitzer gets back to midfield to avoid clogging up the space. While Sancho keeps his place on the wing, Antony is free to help out in defence or in front of goal. Similarly for Mctominay who's free to roam around while Bruno stays available in midfield. Martinez can press up high with Maguire holding it down in the center and Bissaka can overlap on the wing or tighten up as an extra centerback while Malacia remains disciplined in position.
It really is a joy to behold, and allows both attack and defence to flow effortlessly. Only a fired up Pickford stands between United and a massive scoreline.
Bruno is playing well today
Good game overall. Pretty much every one on song apart from maybe Bruno. Rashy unlucky in front of goal
I don't think he has been poor, really made some good runs and even used his right foot once. More of it please.Antony has been poor, sancho good
Sure they do but you simply don't get a 10/10 performance when you miss that.Are we going to pretend those misses don't happen even to greatest strikers let alone a right back? Ronaldo had worse open net misses than that.
A part from Bruno?!?!?Good game overall. Pretty much every one on song apart from maybe Bruno. Rashy unlucky in front of goal
He's been our heart and soul, his tackle to stop a counter was great too. Cant praise him enough.
Amount of chances ….dare say Kane would have had a hat trick and Utd out of sight by now
Not sure how you can disregard a forwards finishing. He has been OK apart from that but wasting two massive chances means he has been poor in my bookHow has Antony been poor? If you're talking about his finishing then yes, but he's been decent this game.
You worry about the legs there though dont youI really wonder whether ten Hag, going forward, will have him and Eriksen as our deeper options, focusing his attention on a play-making 10?
Yeah I suppose they were telegraphed a bit. A decent right footed winger scores those Anthony chancesI think any keeper saves all those shots. United hunting them straight at him hasn't helped.
A part from Bruno?!?!?
How could Sean Dyche not abandon the high line tactics after 5 minutes when their static defence was been exposed clearly?? A great manager? I don't think so. It could easily be 4 or 5.
David hasn't misplaced a pass yetRefreshing to see no player bashing in the match day thread.
I think it was less than that. Someone at work said it was 8 on target and 7 went in.Exactly. Liverpool only had about 10 shots against us and scored 7.
Glad we didn't purchase him though. He's on loan and will be gone in the summer when it expires.The ability of our team to create chances in transition is phenomenal. We might be the best in the world at doing that. Makes me question how Weghorst fits into all this and why did we bother purchasing him.
Sabi and Rashy have good connection
What?!Good game overall. Pretty much every one on song apart from maybe Bruno. Rashy unlucky in front of goal
I wish you were a newbie with nine likes just so I could be the one who promoted you for this.Yet again proving what a useless 'stat' xG is. We can all see it with our own eyes, we don't need some made up number to tell us the obvious.
