    It still baffles me how such a smart footballer could be so dense off the pitch. He appears to be genuinely stupid. Still love him though.
    I think he's a bit on the spectrum (I don't say that flippantly or disrespectfully - it's just the impression I get.)
     
    Hojlunds movement has been a lot more aggressive. Hoping that they'll simplify his game and make him a lot more effective.

    Great finish, Mazaroui again our best player.
     
    Malacia and Antony have both been shite. Mazraoui is a fecking baller. Get him at RWB and Dalot at LWB and we should improve second half.
     
    Mazaroui is class, head and shoulders above everyone else in the squad on the ball. We need him on the ball closer to the goal, should be moved into right wing back.
     
    This has nothing to do with injuries, he was just as bad before he got injured. Just a typical ETH signing.

    If we actually want to play a high line then occasionally defenders will get caught out like that. It happens to City and Liverpool. Once the pressing improves up top you hope it becomes a rarer occasion. The Bodo lad did really well too.
     
    We really missed a trick not appointing Robbie Savage as our next manager. He's really picked apart Ruben Amorim's system with his incredible tactical mind
     
    Everyone was saying Mazraoui was injury prone when we signed him but he hasnt missed a single game through injury yet as he?

    I'm a bit reticent to comment on injuries and availability, because it'll be sod's law that he gets injured in this game or the next.
     
    Change up the wingbacks - Malacia (who I do quite like) just isn't at the races and Antony looks as impotent as ever.
     
    Hes good on the ball though and he acts like a sort of playmaker as a wide centre back against a low block. I like him where he is honestly. We just need Dalot on one side and Amad on the other.
    We need Amad closer to goal. Not out wide.
     
    Mazraoui, Hojlund and Ugarte have been excellent.

    The contrast in excitement levels from the Premier Sports commentators between when we scored and when they scored was fecking hilarious. I actually burst out laughing before celebrating that goal.
     
    Good we're 2-2, both their goals avoidable... Amorim won't be happy. Even though we have 2 goals we're not creating enough, not testing their goal. Story of our season so far.
     
    You can see in moments what the idea is. When the press works there isn't really a way out and we win the ball back high a lot.

    Also control games a lot due to the extra centre back meaning we've always got an option when in possession, once we can figure out how to defend counters and move the ball quicker I think we could look quite good.
     
    Good football up to the final third, then our lack of end product from the sides hurts us. Neither Malacia or Antony can cross, combine with the inside forwards or even drive down the byline effectively. We need creativity....Amad is an obvious solution, but moving forward, creativity in attack, and athleticism should be what we should be looking at.
     
    That goal is of the highest quality. We don't get this lad in enough scoring positions....
     
    He could do De Ligt's role as a back up but I don't see how Maguire fits into an Amorim team.

    I'm not sure where Yoro fits in either, anywhere across the back 3? RCB or the the central CB? I haven't seen any of him, hence I have no idea on his profile.
     
    I can't believe how good Maz has been for us. He performs in every game. I don't know if it's because we're just shit, but seeing a player constantly perform is amazing.

    Hopefully he can stay fit because we need this quality in our team.
     
    Watch 15 mins, Antony is pure shit and Mount is non existent. Why United is always playing 8-9 versus 11?
     
    Maybe ETH was on to something with Maz as no10. He's the only technical sound player we have, certainly feels like that sometime.
