What are you suggesting we're playing then? In numbers, like? Clearly it's a back three centrally with Lindelöf, Smalling and Darmian, right?

Darmian is very defensive. Lingard definitely not LWB. Look at his positioning. We're play a 433.

TsuWave said:
we are. lingard is lwb. mkhi plays behind lukaku and roams

Lingard is not playing LWB. He's just been tracking Carvjhal's runs. He's in the centre of the pitch as I'm writing this post.

Isco is so good.

Who said its unfair? We've had our chances

We'll to me it sounds like people are using at as an excuse for our quite pathetic performance, and all it does is remind me of Klopp's excuses about the wind being a disadvantage to Liverpool.

On another note, we've been playing a bit better for the last ten minutes or so. Good to see.

Are we even being outclassed, or will that eventually overtake the word embarrassing on here?

Madrid are 1-0 up, you stupid fecks.

Real are nowhere near full pace and they are still miles above us

saivet · Aug 8, 2017

Pogba gone LWB?

Escobar · Aug 8, 2017

We can't create chances and get to the penalty box enough. Same old problem unfortunately

Needham · Aug 8, 2017

Pogba's deeper than the Titanic. Thought Matic was meant to set him free.

It's scaring me how easily Lukaku can get marked out of a game.

Admittedly, Varane is a nightmare matchup for him and most others

Difficult without wingers and when our FB don't make it upfront

Team should have considered that before signing him I suppose.

I always thought he was overrated as hell at Everton, hoping he can prove me wrong but that will be hard if we can't feed him properly

Sure. Not being as good as this Madrid side is no shame.

Agreed. If they're on level 10, ye're on 7 and we're on 6...

Drifter · Aug 8, 2017

Come on United!!

Andycoleno9 · Aug 8, 2017

Another season with lingard...

I'm fairly convinced Mkhitaryan is useless. Not knee-jerk either, as I thought as much for most of last season. He does some brilliant things but they're too far and few between. Either he has trouble with consistency or just isn't up to it at this level.

I actually agree with this, I like Mkhi but he's too inconsistent and we need players that have more influence in the game and more often. Wouldn't say "useless", but i agree with the overall sentiment of your post

Android1974 · Aug 8, 2017

After that run, the “slow” Matić might not get back from half-time.

Not only Isco. I would take any of their midfield 4 without a second thought.

Any chance of this going extra time or is it straight to penalties?

What is the difference between this thread and RAWK honestly ?

The choice of club

Offside · Aug 8, 2017

We've actually competed quite well until attack where we are so wasteful and they are so dangerous.

Madrid are 1-0 up, you stupid fecks.

And since the drinks break they have barely been in our half, we've been the better team since.

If I could pick any player in the world to join UTD, it would be a tough choice between Marcelo and Isco!

Marcelo as I think he's quite exceptional for his position.

red4ever 79 · Aug 8, 2017

how many subs can we make? cos i would make 7!

Phil · Aug 8, 2017

Matic our best player this half? Not huge competition.

broccoli · Aug 8, 2017

Lindgard kills every attack. He just passes sideways.

The state of this thread is 10x more embarrassing than our play, get a grip people it's the fecking supercup

It'll be even worse in three months times.

saivet · Aug 8, 2017

Good ball Pogba. Difficult one for Lukaku

freeurmind · Aug 8, 2017

Nice to Lukakau being strong and winning that header though the direction was straight at the keeper.

Not when the score is going to end up 4-0.

Send him off dab off!

You want Lingard sent off?

lsd · Aug 8, 2017

We are not playing three at the back any more are we ? Looks like 442 now

luke511 · Aug 8, 2017

Real Madrid fans after seeing Martial go on the maddest run to set up our goal vs them in the friendly, will be thinking why the feck is he not starting in this utd team. Boggles my mind.

Who cares about the result?

Its the performance which is embarrassing.

Dear me. I think we've played pretty well. After the drinks break I'd argue we've been decent.

Wednesday at Stoke · Aug 8, 2017

Solid header by lukaku

pseudo_canadian · Aug 8, 2017

Matic is class

Manny · Aug 8, 2017

Why the feck do we break then slow our attacks down in the final third?

littlepeasoup · Aug 8, 2017

Matic has been far and away our best player so far.

This thread is hilarious.

I'm not watching but even I know it's not that bad. People probably being drama queens as usual in match day threads and overblowing everything negative about us while over hyping everything done by our opponents.

He's changed it 4-4-2.

Pogba has been fecking annoying with his nonchalant attitude. Same shit as beginning of the last season.
