Clear elbow by Crouch on De Gea. You can literally see him lifting his arm to hit De Gea, and nothing.
This is why I'd like us to play 433. An extra midfielder who can press well and pass well would be great.That's poor from DDG but Crouch really can put his arms anywhere he likes can't he?Pogba so wasted in midfield 2 - needs to be free to roam, Stoke are closing him down really well.Martial's been pretty bad so far.Of course it's Jones.Yea this aint 4-3-3, more like 4-1---------2-3Very indisciplined performance. It's like we think we can just turn up and win...We haven't learnt our lesson with this choupo something guy!Martial is contaminated from RashforditisPogba, Martial, the defence all way too casual so far today. Get your shit together and put in an impressive performance so Sanchez doesn't get turned off!Shaw all over the place positionally. Pogba fannying around like some exhibtion gameDefending has been unusually bad for 4 games running.Aboy JonesAnother chance for Stoke - Jones blocks it off the line
Yeah shoot from 90 yards out on your right, that'll go well
Would prefer Sanchez tbhThis is getting a little sketchy.We need to introduce Herrera here badly for balance.How did Jones not get recognition from commentary for that block?
First mistake in 4 years from DDG
I thought it was my feed at first.Welp. 25 minutes against relegation candidates Stoke, and we've managed a left foot goal from a man with no left foot, and a long range shot blazed over, while Stoke probably should have scored 2 or 3. Really riding our luck here.
True. It wouldn't hurtPut Ander in. We're open as suisse cheese.Jesse and Lukaku are very isolated.Fecks sakes Martial. Don't be doing that at this stage of the match.This is getting a little sketchy.We need Herrera in that midfield 3.We're far too casual. Having said that, the ref is having a poor game so far. What was that non-decision on De Gea? Crouch pretty much elbows him.Simple pass Shaw has to make and he fecks it up.Our passing is shocking in terms of weightmartial's having a dodgy oneWe're literally playing
---------------------DDG-----------------
Valencia ---Smalling -- Jones --- Shaw
------------------- Matic -----------------
----------------Everyone Else------------Valencia scoring with his left has spooked our players more than theirs.
Yeah awful today and not tracking backPoor so far. Passing far too sloppy.
It's only 4-3-3 when we're playing well, don't you know?Everything Crouch does is a foul, but it's never given. Every header he goes for, he goes behind the defender and pushed them down by the shoulders, always seems to get away with it.Is Lukaku playing?Nice play Lukaku- Status
I actually like it though
