  1. Manchester United vs FC Twente

    It worked a lot in his first season, with Casemiro, Eriksen, Bruno. Also allows the football ops team to scout better and specifically for a player like Eriksen, who compliments Ugarte and Mainoo.
  2. Champions League 24/25 | Matchday 5: November 26-27

    Griez is such a wonderful footballer and how he's evolved has been a joy to watch from a distance.
  3. Christian Eriksen | 2024/25 Performances

    You can have both in your team and having different types of players in central midfield is always good for tactical/match up reasons. Having a well rounded central midfielder who can dictate tempo and control many moments within a match via possessional play, line breaking passes, making the...
  4. Christian Eriksen | 2024/25 Performances

    He was surrounded by willing runners such as Collyer and Garnacho to his left, with Ugarte and Casemiro behind him. Almost floated around in a midfield 3 then moved across the pitch like he did at Brentford a few years ago. There's a stark difference in the pace and tempo of the game when he's...
  5. Manchester United vs Barnsley

    we want 8
  6. Manchester United vs Barnsley

    well deserved and earned goal by Eriksen. he's been good the past two matches.
  7. Manchester United vs Barnsley

    we want 7...
  8. Manchester United vs Barnsley

    Antony only good for a half or out with a knock? Edit: Damn tv graphic said De Ligt was subbed in for Antony, but no subs for United, ha.
  9. Manchester United vs Barnsley

    all three forwards have scored in the first half.
  10. Life after ETH — the next United manager

    Regardless of the next manager, there has to be some type of continuity of tactical setup and player ability, not wild swings either way. That has to be established by the new football ops and not entirely on a manager. Brighton does it well, City did it well, Spurs did well but same output...
  11. Transfer Tweets - Manchester United - 2024/25

    Too late now, unless United sign a free agent CM (e.g., Rabiot). Ugarte, Mainoo, Collyer, Eriksen is suicide. I don't see Ashworth and the football ops team doing anything like this unless they have an immediate replacement.
  12. Erik ten Hag | 2024/25 | Sacked

    The performances were good and promising for majority of the matches. And you're counting the Charity Shield which went to pens, that's a nothing burger. I'm sorry if you cannot see the clear improvements in style and tactics the first PL matches, I really am. Is it perfect considering players...
  13. Erik ten Hag | 2024/25 | Sacked

    Calma calma...he had one bad season. Finally, the club has competent and rated people overseeing football ops and recruitment and squad coming/goings, but the job isn't done regardless of the manager. Unless the squad miraculously loses quality and has a massive injury crisis again, think we'll...
  14. Jadon Sancho (Out) | Chelsea reach deal to sign on loan with obligation to buy

    Sancho might have more talent, but nobody gets a free pass. He's been a poor professional and hasn't performed well enough in training. If those things change, he might get a look in. But looks like football ops wants to get him out as well as they're on the same page as EtH.
  15. Erik ten Hag | 2024/25 | Sacked

    The overall talent and depth improved from last year, however there are still player quality issues across the front line when it comes to goal scoring. If EtH cannot improve this current team in performance and mostly getting full results by at least 8 to 12 points from last year, which would...
