    Terrible defending, Altay has been poor as well but I suppose its not a suprise when he has played only once in about 18 months.
     
    dalot has the uncanny ability to always be involved in the soft goals we concede
     
    I'm in my 30's but I still chuckle when someone gets hit in the balls.
     
    It's always better to win 5-4 than to draw 0-0.

    Attack, attack, attack!
     
    Might be a bit poor defensively, might just be incredibly unlucky.

    Crazy but fun game all the same.

    Was that Michael Vaughan with Sir Alex?
     
    Not just the fans, pundits on CBS saying that maybe Ruud is the better choice because he knows the "United way" is hilarious to me. One better half against a very week Leicester side makes him a candidate for head coach now?
    Same on may channel :lol:
     
    Hard to say for sure. Walsall took this kind of Leicester lineup to penalties and they're a division below Barnsley.

    Football doesn't work so linearly but this lineup from them tonight is pants.
    Ten Hag had us on minus goal difference last season. That is utterly baffling at this club.
     
    fecking hell the shit we served up was all down to Ten Hag. Look at this performance. I can actually see the shape and the system. It’s so simple. This is more than a manager bounce.
     
    Never far away from Dalot responsible for giving away a goal. Two goals conceded against Leicester City reserves in one half is poor. Four goals scored is decent.
     
    One of the funnest half's of football I have watched from this Utd team in a long time.
     
    Can’t train away individual errors in a couple of days, and both goals against came from a couple of poor individual mistakes.

    However, the overall approach and shape of the team is infinitely better. Two solid CMs, showing aggression and tactical discipline, has allowed our forwards to be direct and dangerous. Could have scored six that half.

    Really should be on a clean sheet because the first goal is from nothing, just a keeper unable to catch the ball, and the second is a simple headed clearance missed.
     
    stupid goals conceded (what else is new), but I still enjoyed that half a lot, not going to lie. I'll take this over the dross under Erik ten out of ten times. Entertaining stuff.

    You’ve got to be fecking joking.
     
    How is Dalot getting blamed for that goal! Someone needs to give Casa a shout. Probably De Ligt.
