Absolutely feck all has changed.
I thought van Gaal was supposed to be a football genius (and not in an ironic sense like Moyes)All over the shop at the back again. Terrible defending, getting caught out like that and especially at a time when we had Swansea on the back foot is not on.
Those goals were no luck. We have been shit at the back and it shows in broad daylight.How the feck do we dominate possession, yet whenever they get near our box it's a big chance? We look like headless chickens trying to defend.Let's remember we're missing Evans, Rafael, Shaw and playing Blackett and fecking Young in defencePoor subs sums this matchFelliani missed the cross.No right back
Adnan is not a wing back
We aren't ready for this system yetthe problem is Smalling, Fletcher, Young all staticProof, if needed, that pre-season form means sweet feck all.Poor subs as well. How Herrera comes off before Fletch is beyond meWe lost our passing after herreras sub
it seemed like we were in for another goal
exactly. terrible sub that...Come on utd
Do you think that with most of our defense, one of our best midfielders, and two of our best strikers injured it's a good time to judge how good the squad is?
Yes.In other news, does Scholes know he's on camera?Unlike moyes, van gaal will learn from this.At least this has happened when there's still time to get in new signings. Surely we will see a couple come in now.Even moyes didn't lose his first game...
Exactly, he took him off when we were on the frontfoot. Why?Time to spend some money this week it seemsGlazer was probably thinking "the squad is fine, I'll go watch us win today."
Laughable. Name and shame them feckers, ffs!I'm still surprised Herrera was bought off. One of the better players.These players cant perform at OT. We lack speedBar Blackett we have no defence. Period.Hopefully this will light a fire under van Gaal's ass to fecking sign some decent players.
Can't pretend I understand that either.
But but, I was accused of being pathetic when I said that our defense was weak this morning.This squad is not good enough for top 4.
Vidal is a must now and so is a quality CB.
No need to assess the team for any longer,we need signings asap.The lack of real quality at the back is showing.
I'll see you all in about 20-25 years.Feck off with the records
It's obviously going to be Nani, even though the defence was at fault, Blackett's inexperience cost us.Old ghosts from last year still around the defenseAnd Fletch carries on pointing to defenders rather than be availableWe haven't lost a opening fixture at OT since 1972!- Status
