Playing in a back 5 guarantees the opponent can constantly be man to man with all your attacking players. They have to spread to find space and they get isolated. Then there’s no central midfield to work through because Fred and Andreas are complete garbage.

Poch just got sacked why do we need him?
Spends £50 fecking million on a class right back and then plays him out of position. Clueless!This is one of the worst first halves I can recall; beyond bad. Ole needs something second half; I don't think it's melodramatic to say his job could be on the line.Have Pereira or Fred made a successful pass yet? You can't play what's essentially 523 if neither of your midfielders can passThe more I watch that goal, I don't understand why this is not foul or why it's foul for Rashford. Just not possible.Pereira is embarrassingly shit.If Ole somehow makes changes and turns this game around, I will change my vote from sack to keep. But he won’t.
Weird thing to say. He's had a much better start to his career with us than anyone could've hoped for. He's just going down with the ship at the moment.
Yes.. everyone is injured... in a squad that's already really weak.
Anything here would be a bonus... our best hope was Sheffield Utd having a shit day.. that isnt happening.I miss the international break
Played a lot of football in league one as well.
could say the same for Allegri
If we line up in the same system at the start of the second half, then this defeat (which it absolutely will be if we don't change it up) will be entirely on Ole.
Yes should have said AWB can also hold his head up.Worst they’ve been for a while. Pereira is so fecking shite
He’s stood up....next step will be a 75th minute changeWtf is martial doing out there?Sorry that's a foul. As shit as jones is. I bet you if that were us our goal wouldn't have stood.Leicester will come here and get nineI try not to be too negative but this is awful. Fred, pereira, James, Jones all 0/10 performances so far. I can’t figure out the shape, we are second to every ball.
Get Poch on the phone, now.Our game plan so far:
5 in defence and they stay in defence. Then 2 midfielders who help to those 5 and play short passes with them.
Then empty space. More of empty space.
And then come 3 attackers who run around...and run around.
Bloody fecking hell, my team on a 5 a side football looks more organised than thisWe should have changed it tactically by now when it clearly isn't working.Its getting really hard for Ole supporters to justify this shit circus week after week, but hey they’re getting really creative, dilusional, but creative.Can’t put Jagielka under pressure again!
They are a well coached machine, a team. Good coaching makes a big difference.Ole's response to this travesty will be to do feck all until the 65th minute when he'll bring on Lingard for Pereira. Then he'll bring on Greenwood in the 81st minute. Take that to the bank.Men against boysWorst half of the season?Going into the second half, go with Garner for Jones and adjust our shape accordingly. It may make no difference to the final result, but the extra body in midfield may put SU on the back heel.Never again will we find ourselves above Spurs in the table this season.
Don't forget the mighty NorwichIt’s like the players have never played together before. It’s hard work watching them ‘play’
What?? We are Manchester United. We are an attacking team and our attackers are not supposed to track back and defend, that is not in our philosophy.Terrible touch from Martial there. The worst of Martial so far, the striker who doesn't fancy it and doesn't like it up him, rather than the international class scalpel.
His job is safe.Martial can’t even control the ball the entire half. Bloody idiot. And some on here don’t want us to buy a new striker just so Martial keeps his place:
No issue with the signing, but we needed a midfielder. 80 million on a CB when are short in other areas is poor management from the whole club- Status
