Why? 5-0 up at half time... surely looks like we could done without our premier league CB couple starting.

I think 5-0 only proves that it is the wrong line up and such an overkill of proven premier league players is way too much.

This has to be one of the all time worst posts. :lol:

Being 5-0 up proves it's the wrong line up! I wish there was a way of highlighting this sort of mad post for more to enjoy.

Pretty sure Ole didn't know what he was doing. The scoreline doesn't justify selecting 5 at back. Lingard, jones, mcguire and dalot scored is not by any tactical managerial genius.

I’m not claiming its a tactical masterclass or a genius decision. I’m simply asking what everybody (who crucified him An hour ago on this very thread) think now.

Good decisions can still happen you know. It doesn’t have to be a tactical masterclass for it to be a good decision. Do you just want to criticise everything bad that happens and ignore any positives?

we were fecking awesome in that game against arsenal... it was 1-1 at one stage if I remember right

Yep, then Yorke went on to complete a hatrick and Keano was rampaging all over the midfield. Great times

Tranmere goaly is a City fan..... we need to put a couple more in the back of his net.

I'd go back and "quote" all the armchair manager posts that moaned about the team pre game..... especially the comments about the defence/defenders playing.

But, by the time I'd finished, I'd have missed the entire second half and probably most of the day.

Doesnt the score prove that they were right and more premier league players could have been rested?

NewGlory · Jan 26, 2020

Worried to see Fred coming in as a sub, on a "pitch" that looks like this:

Hope he doesn't get injured. He is one quality midfielder we have currently.

mitchmouse · Jan 26, 2020

there are three words I never thought I'd hear in one sentence: "Jones is sprightly". Paul Dempsey must be up for an oscar

He reckons 5-0 proves it was the wrong line up!

Absolutely bonkers some of our fans.

londonredmaniac · Jan 26, 2020

Maguire stays on...Fred comes on...why???

Irrational. · Jan 26, 2020

Maguire off, Bailly on around the 60th minute mark please. None of this 'my captain must always play' bullshit.

I heard about that, so really happy we have made him look rubbish.

I've just got a funny image of Grant doing Cruyff turns in central midfield and threading intricate balls through to Greenwood

Honestly it would be great. He would probably shock us and score :lol:

Lets hope Woodward doesnt get the wrong ideas and now think we dont need any reinforcement this transfer window.

Oh, be certain of that.

Lee565 · Jan 26, 2020

Urgh, you just know lingard scoring against a bloody league 1 side will now warrant him starting the next 5 games in Solskjear's eyes

GifLord · Jan 26, 2020

Lingard and first touch

Around the 75th minute I reckon

Sorry, but where in my post was any hint of me trying to claim Ole is a top manager? Jeez mate, enjoy the game, you can only beat whats in front of you.

You were talking about those who don't think he is making good tactical decisions as if they were in the wrong. Just because a Premier league team leads 5-0 over nobodies after the immense failure that has been shown before doesn't wipe the slate clean.

I'm not watching the game. Came over your comment somewhat accidentally and thought it seemed like gloating over those with genuine concerns, just because the current pointless result is going our way.

tenpoless · Jan 26, 2020

Noooo not Fred. He's too good for this one.

Excuse me, when have I said all is well? I’m simply enjoying watching my beloved team whacking 5 past a team for a change.

You keep hoping we lose so you can rant and moan online some more.

Yeah , thats right, I hope they score 6 against us now.

Sandikan said:
You certainly see the immense step up in quality between the Prem and league 1, which we didn't at times when Van Gaal was drawing minnows!

LVG didn't care about opposition. He could make us shit against anyone. The mark of a true master.

LawCharltonBest · Jan 26, 2020

Ed Woodward will point to this game as a reason not to sign anyone else you realise

mitchmouse · Jan 26, 2020

now if shrewsbury can just stuff five past liverpool....

Not ignoring positives. I am rather enjoying. But I am not convinced yet to give Ole credit for this. But enjoying the match though.

I was laughing at fans who were claiming it was negative to play 5 at the back against Tramnere. We are 5-0 up and have barely got out of 1st gear.

Just give up mate.

Yes of course it is the lack of quality of the opposition - but this does show that players are also human and that performances are so much dependent upon handling pressure.

True and when you go into games with the wrong attitude you can make even mismatches like this look hard work, so the players and coaches deserve credit for how they've approached this. Obviously this performance doesn't solve our numerous problems but it's been very enjoyable, far far more so than we expected.

They were mostly complaining about playing a back 5 against this kind of opposition

No Idea For Nickname · Jan 26, 2020

What did I miss?
Oh look, Fred!
He will score as well.

For what it’s worth, I do not think Ole is a top manager. I do though really think we should all forget about the long-term problems for an hour and just enjoy this performance. We can moan about how United are doomed tomorrow.
