He’s been worseTeam seems suicidal. Can you pinpoint a clear game plan looking at it?
ETH being reluctant to stack the midfield and a poor record in matches like this is not a coincidence.
The defence is in for a long night with Bruno, Rashford, Martial, Garnacho and McTominay treating the ball like a grenadeSome amount of miserable negative c*nts in this thread.We're going to get thrashed or be lucky and somehow get a draw. There's no way we're winning this. I'm always wrong when I make statements like this so I'm hoping this means we win.
But seriously, McT better stay in position and not bolt up the pitch like he usually does.
Even if Dalot alone not having this issue, the other 3 in the defensive line is regular culprit of said offense. Our implementation of the offside trap generally is the poorest among top sides.
Onana is starting.
The standards are in the basement.
Total Football.
McTominay is starting games clearly due to ETH utilizing hi goal scoring ability to offset the lack of goals from our true attackers. The question is whether the trade of worth the risk. So far it's not that bad in term of result, but it's been equally a heart attack inducing tactic.Dalot at LB
Put Varane in FFS!
Proof there is an issue with him and Erik
Newcastle is tougher than EvertonStill concerned he seems to be eprservering with two players in midfield that will probably be playing higher up. Putting a lot on Mainoo here.Not digging this line up. Onana at this point could shoot someone on 5th Avenue, and he would start in goal.
Shaw at CB over Varane, reminds me of when Ashley Young kept DiMaria out of the team. (that happened, didn't it?)
Is Mount injured? Amrabat? Why play McT as a DM?
Anyway, smash the bar codes!Think Bruno will be vital in everything we do today.With all eyes of the nation watching you, Marcus, it’s time for you to put in a top performance.Varane now 4th choice CB? He's done isn't he?Hopefully, the midfield will not collapse. We need a statement win
Mainoo is Yaya Toure and Frenkie De Jong rolled into one so we'll be alrightNewcastle always play that same cheesy 80s song before kick off
Nothing gets past you.Why do they have the flags out?! It's not a cup final FFSMainoo, what a man.
Cheers Michael Owen
6th choice. Martinez, Maguire, Shaw, Lindelof, Evans all seems to be ahead of him now.
That’s exactly how we setup though isn’t it? It’s like we’re completely unaware of our own deficiencies.Reckon we will give them a decent game if Mainoo plays to the level he has done.
Unlike OnanaWhy is Maguire down as captain on BT? Presume it was a mistakeMainoo going to have to carry us tonight.Come on United
And he has been in great form in the league. Your point?
ETH doesn't see Varane as a LCB so he's competing with Maguire for RCB, a competition Maguire seems to have won.TNT graphic has Maguire as captain. Who wants to tell them.
Forgot those 2!Not a great team we have. Missing Casemiro and Eriksen from the form they showed last autumn.Who handling VAR today?Let’s go United!
I like The ten hag flat cap look
Forwards can be afforded more leeway to be played into form, with defense not so much.Bruno making friends with the ref. Hope that helps us
So was Varane- Status
