Sweet volley by Ronaldo. Definitely a more solid system but I also think Spurs are utter shite. Perfect opponent for us in this situation, they've scored 9 goals in 9 games. Should be as straight forward as it gets to keep them at bay.We're scraping by with the bare minimum here. We've looked good by dint if outnumbering Spurs in midfield. That's a good decision in Oles part. Otherwise we've been pretty pedestrian.
Spurs are so bad that I don't know how good we really have been.
Think Kane's attitude stinks. We know you are disappointed, but Spurs pay your wages, get on with it.Far better defensively than we have been all season. Having players that want to defend on the pitch makes a difference. Not as good going forward, but you'd expect that. If Ole ends up staying, I think he will keep using this formation.
We're still shit on set pieces, but I'll take this so far. Great ball by Bruno and goal by Ronaldo.Sort of performance that feels good when you are 1-0 up and mediocre at 0-0. Nice to see the team working real hard and fighting for every ball. The week on the training ground has done some good.
Much prefer this midfield version of Bruno Fernandes. Pleasing to see him keeping our shape and still being very creative.Solid first half.. set up solidly but the players are actually working hard when we are not in possession. Then using the ball well going forward with minimal mistakes…
Spurs look scared to death to me. Please don’t feck it up reds.If they are not going to sack Ole could they please at least sack this set piece guru?
He'll never get sacked. If he survives a 5-0 loss to Liverpool, nothing will ever threaten his job.
I have made my mind he'll be our manager for the next 20 years.Can Sancho play as a wingback? Might be worth a goMight be one of the best half’s I’ve seen from Bruno. That is where he needs to play. In midfield not making ridiculous presses and pretending to be a striker.
Still managing to get forward but he looks so much better in this role.
Good way of phrasing it. Meh beating shitWe’ve looked in a better shape with this 352 formation.
He's getting made to make a fool once again. Except him to ignore all this and keep driving his agenda though
He is a yard off his line. At most he has 3/4 yards to move. He can meet that with his fists and clear it.More I see that finish by Ronaldo
sublimeSpurs couldn't have come to a better time. They look cluelessMeh .. I don't know why we have AWB, DDG, Fred and McT starting. Everyone of them is poor on the ball. Matic should have started today .
Anyways nice half from AWB though. Him and Varane are the only players who could come out with their heads high. Ronaldo , except for the goal has been poor. Spurs is there for taking. Just put them to sword. Bring some pace upfront and a midfielder who can actually pass.Pleased with the half time lead and group effort. The goal was a bit of class by both Bruno and Ronaldo, reminded me of the match winner Cantona scored v Newcastle in the mid 90s
United defence still looking dodgy especially on set pieces so will probably need a 2nd goal in order to win this match.
Lamela too. I still remember when Martial tickled the cnut’s chin and he went down like he’d received a haymaker from Tyson Fury, getting him sent off in the process. Spurs are a bunch of diving cuntwaffles.
Balance is there.
What if he wins all of his remaining games, should he be sacked then?Great goal. Example of this generally shit, Fine Margins United.Decent reaction so far. Look fairly solid defensively. Working hard, pressing well. Had a couple of chances like that Cavani header and then a beauty from CR7.
Hopefully we can kill this game with another.
Though why is set piece defending still so bad even with this many numbers backRonaldo score but his overall contribution was poor. I think this is how Ole will be playing till end of the season. Expect Rashford and Greenwood to come on and the defence get tire. Much better football than the crap put up last week against Liverpool. Let's build some confidence with 5-3-2.We’ve resembled an actual football team today!
I’m not AWB’s biggest fan but he’s played ok but got a hammering in this thread.The approach has been much better. However, there were some warning signs after we went ahead. Increasingly Fred started to get sucked towards the ball.
At halftime Ole needs to remind them that we are 1-0 up. We don't need to go chasing upfield, getting our lines stretched. Stay compact, keep it tight, Spurs will chase the game and that will open space for us in the second half.
We have been shooting ourselves in the foot by trying to press in poor positions when uneeded. Today if we show discipline and game management we can bring home the three points.That was an absolutely brilliant goal
Nice to have a relatively enjoyable half where we don't concede and are actually winning the game. Big improvement, though Spurs are not making it very difficult.
Isn't it actually 3-5-2 ?Now Ole will cling to this formation like a drowning man and Sancho will never play.
yea, I m surprised nuno is picking him. He still seem upset that he didn’t get his move to Manchester city.
Nope! he is causing a lot of tactical problems for us. We will never realize our full potential with a player like him leading the line. His inclusion means no Rasford/Martial/Sancho/greenwood. We also cant win any penalties with him playing so many games.
He will have to be a brave man to leave so many talented players on the bench every week!
And what about the 8 players in his way?Moaning if we're losing, moaning if we're winning. This place is hilarious
Salute to those of you enjoying yourselves today. That's what it's about.Maguire, Shaw, and Mctominay are ass.
Rest are playing well. If we stick with this formation, I wonder how it will be against a team that isn't in a similar situation to usWasn’t spectacular but we’ve looked competent and we’ve worked hard. Great goal from Ronaldo, hopefully we can remain vigilant in the 2nd half and not screw this up.
I'm a nervous wreck on gameday.Haha, you are such a mood
With 7 at the back. Jesus if you want to see this week in week out go and support Wimbledon- Status
