I think we’ve been decent, honestly. With just a tiny bit of luck we’d be two goals up.

Not really, if we're being honest.

His faith in his defence + keeper must be so low if he feels that he can't even risk playing attacking lineups vs. West Brom at home.

We'll see what happens in the second half. I still expect us to get the win, but I don't think it'll be the big statement that it could have been.

We’ll win 1-0, probs a pen, Ole will keep his job but we’ll all stay depressed...

Watching United is such a labour. It used to be joyful. This is a chance to show everyone what they can do. But we don't even have flat track bullies. Some kind of bully would be great. But we look like we have just got out of bed. Directionless dross.

What does Mata offer other than being a nice wee bloke?

Ole saying he wants the fans in. Ole should thank his lucky stars the stadium is empty.

Yes. At the end of the first half there would have been a chorus of boos.

RedSky · Nov 21, 2020

VdB for Matic and throw on Cavani around 60mins in for Mata. Baggies haven't really put us under much threat and we've been close. Just need a little more creative variety.

Mickey Owen slating Martial - says he doesn’t want to score enough.

He's not wrong. I don't have time for Owen mostly but he talks some sense about strikers.

I wouldn't hook Martial as I don't think he's been terrible and his link-up play adds a lot. But his lack of ruthlessness in front of goal is a problem. I feel we should bring on Cavani, play Martial off him and withdraw Bruno deeper so he has some space to play his passes.

Renegade · Nov 21, 2020

Ole will get out his seat in the 80th.

Alvaro Maestre · Nov 21, 2020

This is not about the players anymore, Ole is not good enough tactically.

Can someone please explain to me the right-hand side?

Maybe I just don't understand football but I was under the distinct impression that when you play with a player wide like Mata who constantly tucks in you should only pair them with full-backs who are keen and able to fill the space and overlap constantly.

What's the point of a nothing offensive full-back behind a RW constantly tucking in? How in God's name can you switch the play if the RB doesn't have the brain to push high and wide?

Either O|le doesn't see the issue tactically, or he prefers it that way.

Obviously he sees it which is why he wanted to buy a right winger in the summer. Our board weren’t capable of getting it done. Now that we haven’t, we have little other option on the right.

Spurs beat these lot in the last minute. Chelsea went 3-0 down to them before getting a point. Think we doing ok we need to up the tempo

So what you're saying is - we're going to lose. Got it.

By “tiny bit of luck” you mean them playing without a goalkeeper?

Random Task · Nov 21, 2020

Failure to win tonight would be our worst start in 40 years.

That's not good is it?

and we keep being told Ole understands the club's DNA: and I'm going to be the next president of America

This. Should have started with this as well.

This was the perfect game. Pogba out.

West Brom bringing the cones out for a quick training session before the 2nd half starts? The feck

Ranchero · Nov 21, 2020

The way we are playing the subs will be Vanguard class.

Offside said:
It’s because even when he can barely run and is getting dispossessed so easily he still doesn’t take donkey touched or make ridiculous stupid decisions like all of the others.

He also makes runs. Actual off the ball runs! Slow, but definitely existing, runs.

Prodigy24 · Nov 21, 2020

fecking hell, how can he seriously let Mata walk out for the second half?! Ole ffs get a grip.

Saddy · Nov 21, 2020

No changes - really ?!!!

OldTrevil · Nov 21, 2020

Let's hope we see better play especially from the midfield, Mata, Matic, Bruno and Rashy have played so many wayward passes. We need more precision in our game and Martial needs to break his league duck despite his overall good play. I'd bring in Cavani and VDB for Mata and Matic to freshen and speexd hings up especially if it remains 0-0

See that Jake clown on BT Sport saying “you look at that and see 2 evenly matched sides” is just a load of absolute shit.

2 shots each in the first half. If United play to the same standard in the second half WBA will be delighted. We should have another gear or 2 but I’m not so sure, the lineup is wrong and we have no plan apart from get the ball to Bruno or put it into the box once their defence is set

I only even watch maybe a third of our games anymore because the football is such trash. Today simply confirms why I've stopped watching football. It's not like I'm going to start supporting another team, so when the choice is to watch United or to just not watch football, I've increasingly begun to choose the latter.

Agreed. And some people still say "at least Ole's football is entertaining".

It's one of the biggest myths on here. His football is shit.
