What do you people expect of him when we've been so poor as a team, he's barely played the last year, Fred's been awful and Pogba doesn't defend.

It was a red, his first one at United. The pitch is pretty bad but there is no excuse for that. Annoying as it is, it happens. Hopefully we can hold on to the lead. AWB still a great 1 on 1 defender for me. He just made a mistake
3 at the back, Shaw and Dalot as wingbacksPoor Donny
3-5-1 now I guess. Makes sense.That's proactive management. Harsh on Donny but was also harsh on Sancho. Blame AWB.It was a red, but I hate these kinds of reds where basically both players go for the ball and one of them reaches it a tenth of a second faster and the other pretty much can't avoid fouling him. Then it's a matter of utter spatial randomness and a few centimeters to determine whether it's a yellow that has no real bearing on the match, or a red that completely changes the result. You're going for the ball and suddenly there's a foot right where you're about to place yours in the next instant. Unavoidable, unintentional, but the rules are the rules and the red is correct.
Minutes later there's an essentially identical challenge in the other end of the pitch, but because one player steps on a different and less painful part of the other's foot, it's not a red. It's pretty much a roll of the dice. So fecking unlucky, and now it might make an otherwise comfortable CL group much more troublesome. It's not as if AWB shouldn't have gone for the ball, just rotten luck.
Solid performance, should keep him in the starting 11 against West Ham on the weekend.Ole doesn't have the balls to do anything about Ronaldo or Pogba. Pogba has been atrocious. Ronaldo ain't gonna do shit with 10 men and you take Donny off who has been one of our better players? Fred again has been a calamity. Bad management, even if we win this game by some miracle.I feel so sorry for Donny.Let's see if Ole trusts his squad... This is a scenario where you should really be using your bench through the half
Truth. So unfortunate. Let’s hope it doesn’t cost us in the end.531 makes sense. Good decision.
Yeah same with Sancho. Just made sense tactically.5-3-1 is probably the right move with Shaw and Dalot for the widthLindelof already causing Varane problems.VDB was better than Fred. Ole subbed out two low confidence players.
Dalot probably plays more attacking while Lindelof covers for him at the right.Sub Ronaldo please.How does Fred stay on the pitch over Donny?I know we are very up on the Ronaldo trajn... But it would be nice to be able to sub him since he won't do anything to defend, but we probably can'tSo unlucky for DVBThis was a good change imoI thought Donny did OK tonight.
Being convinced he was coming? Which he did? Being right? So it was a red then? glad that's sorted.Hell of a daft tackle, deserved red.
Being a twat when people said they preferred Grealsh, but naturally you overlook that.
Look, I've stuck with Lingard throughout and I've never gone nuts about Sancho being the second coming, but no thanks.
The entire point of keeping good squaddies like Jesse is being able to afford better players the time to bed in. The same holds for Amad, Elanga, etc although bizarrely people see him as a hindrance and not an enabler. He's a Plan B/insurance policy, not a Plan A.
I just mentioned Evra/Vidic having a mare early days, having JOS was huge then... to ease them in, not because John was our future.
Not that it matters now, with AWB off subbing out Sancho and leaving the entire flank to Dalot was the obvious choice.Siebatcheu? Isn't he a Pokemon?
Fair question actually.When you play 3-5 you need bit of pressing done in the middle. Don't see that happening.Everyone: let's slow it down, keep the ball, be sensible and structured.
Bruno: hits first time volley length of pitch to no one.
Love him.
Christ.Glad Pogba's having this kind of game tonight and not against West Ham. Get it out of his system.Fred and any pass more than 5 yards.Jesus how negative can you get. Ole's outdoing himself here, Van De Beek off Varane on, Sancho off Dalot on. Hey Young Boys come and attack us.Should be a redRef took his time thereGet them a fecking red now.
He won the league and got to the cl final. He got fired when he still had the chance to still win the league again. He did more than decent at psg.- Status
