Michael Owen talking like he’s the first person to suggest United playing a 4-3-3 with 1 DM.
Great something else that I need to pay for even though my cable bill is close to $200.BT Sport throwing cold water all over the caf by showing the performance statistics of McFred vs not-McFred.Michael Owen just declaring the solution to United’s problems. Can’t be arsed with these pundits.10/11, thought Ole would go for McFred & Pogba LW/LM, hope to see Sancho impose himself today, Villareal defenders tend to foul a lot so we should run at them and get set-pieces in dangerous spotsMcTom needs to sit back & do the dirty work today.
I’ve been pointing that out for months, I would have thought it’s pretty obvious why Ole plays them. We win a lot more when he does.
Becuase Matic legs have gone.I'm worried about the midfield.Paramount+ panel over BT's any day, and even Carragher is on it.
What midfield?
Most here think that’s impossible though.
With the DM’s or lack thereof we have I tend to agree.
Its just Hopes. Prayers is not starting.
You need to worry less and embrace the chaos. It’s going to be fun.
You haven’t seen the lady pundit on BT Sport then…
Tbh Matic is even worse than both McT and Pogba. If you remember his Newcastle game. At least McT and Pogba still have legs to chase after.
Yeah, I was kind of kidding with my posts; everyone probably still remembers those with/without McFred stats and the with/without Pogba in midfield stats.
I sort of agreed with him… (it won’t happen again, sorry)
FBs more cautious, allow Pogba to focus less on defensive duties and leave that front five to score goals…. which they should do.
Thankfully a fellow cafe shared, so I don't feel left out. Roses are red...We must be due a beautiful performance. Everyone turns up, everything ticks. No one gets sent off. No one skies a pen. 3-0.
Indeed. Bet Owen is looking to slide in her the dirty dog.
Yeah, if anybody is to progress the ball it’s Pogba, that’s his job.
I want Scott to sit and put a proper DM shift in, break up the play and keep it simple, nothing more.Come on! We have to win this one
Oooo look at me, I'm playing football in a gown and these floor have moss on them.Let's win, eh
McT is not a good passer, but at least he doesn't miss simple passes as much as Fred does recently. You can make a 15' combination of the simple passes he missed this season alone I think.
And tbh I don't know why people keep saying McT is the worst passer. For example he got one to Ronaldo in the WH match which even Bruno should be proud of while I can't think of anything like that with Fred.McTominay has been terrible since returning from injury, and in general I have several serious criticisms of him...but he and Pogba have looked quite good when they've played together the last few times. Hopefully it's a combo that will work.I'm shitting bricks here.I mean, seriously, what is the point in Micheal Owen?Really hoping for a good reaction from the team. Feels like a bad performance tonight could be a turning point for Ole.Must win, come on!Irish media rightly calling a spade a spade in terms of what should be expected of Ole
I think I’ll decide what I ‘should’ be in favour of, as a United fan, thanks.
I think any United team should be attacking as a default, and the overly cautious approach against relegation fodder and the like has been doing my head in. But I’m a bit nervous about all-out attack being a last ditch effort by a desperate managerActually thought he'd play 2 of mct Fred and matic with the changes at the back.
Especially after playing 2 of them against villa with a back 5 at home.
Can't ever seem to understand what goes through his mind, it's almost as if he heard the complaints and decided he'd get slaughtered if went with 2 of them, even though it'd be entirely reasonable with the back 4 we have today.Cmon lads!
Let's get this win.Ronaldo wearing proper long sleeves. Come on Reds.They WILL pull it off tonight.
Come on United!Kick-offHuge game, come on lads. Win and good performance please.- Status
