McTomminay as a LWB? Or another body chasing shadows in the middle and playing with 4 defenders, blocking the opportunity for our wingbacks to get forward?Very poor attempt by James there. But at least it's a meaningful counter attack, I guess.Aguero scores that - that’s the differenceJames should have passed the ball. His decision making needs major work.Martial was unmarked!!!!!Poor attempt from James
Yet in the pre match he said we’d be going toe to toe. Which I’m glad we’re not, we’d get bummed, but it’s weird he says one thing then does another.Oh, man. That was such superb pass from Bruno to Dan James, too bad James can never score from the right
That's Championship quality from James there.
Not only his decision makingDan James is just not the same player as his first few games
No go 433 and match them why are we being so scared for?This is feeling like a matter of time, unfortunately...Yeah let's make a bit more mistakes in front of the box.Freaking poor by jamesHad to pick up the wife and kids, so missed the start, how have we fared? Good to see its still 0-0 at least.James had to do better there. No point having all that pace if you can't do anything with it.Why didn't Ighalo start this game? This is a physical game we needed a physical striker up top. What does James offer?Feck off Sterling you bellend.Nothing shot from James.Exactly the same foul he gave on Rodri on the opposite side
Yeah. Ighalo poaching in their box would have been much better, right now.Could we be anymore passive? That city back four isn't up to much.
Yeah, James didn't even look up to notice him. He just made a beeline for the goal.Martial was open in the middle, great strikers run by him, sad James missed him.
Harsh.
Even so, it’s about natural pace. You either have it or you don’t.
Because Aguero is a known speed merchant?actually martial was hiding behind defenders and not up with play... no surprise thereSeems like James used up all of his form in the first 3-4 games of the season, and has been coasting on fumes for the rest of the season.
City dominating possession, united hoping for the counter
Of course as a CM to prevent them from flooding our midfield as they are doing.
Yeah good luck hoping for our wingbacks to have any impact going forwardVery deep for the home teamHad zero expectations from James there, I'll be honest.
he wasn't up with play.. hiding behind defenders
Last time we were on the front foot at OT against City we got rippped to shreds.their defence is there to be got at. We need to show w but more going forward & stop panicking.
I never thought he was good enough. Compared to other winger, he just lacks so bad in every department except pace
Thats all he knows . Defend counter maybe get lucky scorelike ole to explain leaving out scotty- Status
