Whoever the new manager is I pray their very first act is to call McTominay into his office and tell him to find a new club.
He is a pitiful excuse for a footballer.

He had enough space to attack in front of him, yet he slows down and then he needs to tackle. Also he's showing he's wayyyyy lower class compared to Bruno.
He's the press trigger for the opposition team. Once he gets the ball you press him and tighten on everyone else too, best way to regain possession in a dangerous area.
Completely disagree. He's been rubbish. Ruins attacks by squaring the ball or back passing when positive options are available. An absolute nothing player who has a good game a few times a season.
Fairly poor so far in terms of team play. Sancho looks promising. Vdb OK. Ronaldo getting stuck in. Hopefully a better 2nd half.We’re ugly. Take off fred or mctominay, vdb drops back to midfield and properly link the lines. No one does that at the momentWe are all to reliant on Fred and Mctominay.
And they are simply not good at that. Offensive work that is. Defensively, they are fine.
With our fullbacks rarely crossing the half line, its all to thin upfornt. Not enough bodies.
Something got to give.
You either take out on of McFred, or you tell the fullbacks to get forward more.How much did AWB cost again
Him and Maguire being so incredibly slow on the ball is really hurting us.We need 2 x cm's in the summer.Bring mctominay for Bruno. Bruno, vdb and Fred midfield is good enough to play
100% and it starts from moving mctominay out of the base! if he plays he needs to be higher up the pitch out of the way.Telles has been crap. Fred has been Fred (always looking busy without doing anything productive).Do we take a 0-0 here?
Yep, think villareal have been a bit shut but but if they were playing better they could have created a few chancesDonny and Sancho link up very well.Pros - We are not losing
Cons - Same old rubbish
It sums it all up that when walking off the pitch the commentator says the most important thing is Utd haven't conceded yet.Rashy will win us this second halfUnbeaten so far under Carrick.
Progress.
100%. But we already know that. And two of them cost us a combined 100m.
We're looking as much of an underdog as ever, playing underdog football, but at least we've not conceded yet.
This Villareal team is well drilled and they play like a team, but I also think they're massively overrated and a good refs detract from their main attribute which is shithousery.
But there isn't a single thing from that first half that suggests we should win this though, is there?This team needs some deep deep surgery.Need to fluke a goal second half. That Telles-Ronaldo combination looks promising.
Yep he’s being exposed for the shit passer he is. Villarreal are daring him to play through the lines and instead he’s getting Telles hounded out wide
Pretty happy with what I’ve seen. Team has a shape, not this everyone freestyling football we have become accustomed to, and we have not tried to rush when we have the ball, we are trying to be careful and put passes together. As a foundation, it is exactly what I want to see.
Spot on. The weak passing is causing the issue but people miss that as it's the receiver that makes the error.
We're always glass half full.We're on the same wavelength
Really poor first half. Nice to get in at half time without conceding for a change I guess
We don't dominate possession and our players are crap in possession.Like watching us under Mourinho. 0-0 and hardly created anything when we did have the ball
At least we ain’t losing I suppose.We were pretty crap. They weren't much better.Get McTominay and Fred off for Bruno and Matic 2nd halfRubbish half.
He needs to get them in there and show them some triangles, a rectangle and a few other shapes for this second half. Not one of these gowls has a clue how to make an angle for a pass, or how to make themselves an option for the passer.
He got rid of Fellaini for this joker too. At least Fellaini is difficult to play against and if you get the ball in the air to his chest he will control it.Probably the best we could expect. We have sacked the part of the team least responsible for coaching and tactics so it wasn't like we would suddenly begin rolling back the years.
I don't understand why we can't string passes together and never seem to have control of a game.
Not looking forward to Chelsea.
His delivery is good, but he's been caught twice, one with a standard ball over the top from the GK. He's been poor with possession as well, repeatedly getting caught on the ball. Granted, Maguire isn't doing him any favours with those passes, and he hasn't played much football.
I agree though, McTominay is just a body in there, but offers nothing at all. Neither are good enough, which is the Real issue here. But Telles probably just justifies his place as a squad player who can fill in adequately.They really don't work hard enough off the ball to create space. Still so vulnerable to the press, sometimes looks like a bog standard fitness issue. Earlier Martial didn't keep a ball in you really would have thought he had the pace to get to.
Been fkin awful.
Of course. Could go through tonight with a draw.- Status
