With United you know that B team can end up as our A team very quickly.
Club Friendlies - Aston Villa vs Man United on 12/09/2020
- Thread starter MyOnlySolskjaer
- Start date
could have won the europa league fairly easily though
Hope everyone realises the results of friendlies don't count for shit
If Shaw played CB does that saw we are pretty likely to get a CB?
3.6 Roentgen; Not great, not terrible.
Just a friendly. Lingard will step up once the season starts.
Martial and Fernandes will pull us through.
This is the sort of game we should have kept Lukaku for.
Why did we play the B team? Will the A team not have any games before Palace?
Let's be honest If that team was to start premier league games it would lose more games that they would win.
Coulda woulda shoulda. Given the circumstances of when it took place and we already had CL secured I think it was just so so stupid. Teams still in Europe have effectively been punished for this new season as their pre season (if you can even call it that) doesn't really exist.
Half our team will have to gain match sharpness now in competitive games against teams better prepared.
Doesn't look like. Some have played internationals so had some game time, I am not keen throwing players in who have not played at all. Pogba is a doubt anyway, unless he puts him on the bench. AWB has been in isolation, but no game time.
Most of them have international duties though.
There would be riots if that team started a league match.
Nope. Probably a first 11 vs second 11 in house game at Carrington. That's it.
Utter mess. Just like I was saying. We should have fecked off the Europa League after winning at Leicester. The turn around time is a joke.
Nations league was their warm-up
Ole has to learn to look for realistic targets rather than fixating on big names. So far we've been only linked to Sancho (and Thiago?) throughout the window ffs as if there's no alternative in the world.
Inclined to agree. I would want Sancho, but you would also think their are better options than we already have.
All we know is we got beat 1-0. Game seems to be shrouded in secrecy for some reason.
Oh and it was a full on B team.
For commercial reason obviously, otherwise no one would subscribe MUTV.
Villa twitter posted the score at least.
Because they won
Just shows the squad is not good enough, most of them need to be binned. Ole just can’t see past the English players.
I think it has dawned on Ole that his options to rest his first eleven are just about non existent.
I dunno, if we got thrashed 46-0 by Arsenal or someone in a pre-season tournament it might give the players’ confidence a slight knock
MUTV may as well not bother showing this later
Not sure how you're pining this on him.
Well, if a meteorite crashed into the pitch I'd say they might be a bit shook up as well.
Is this the anti-English bias you're always banging on about?
Why do these lads never take the chances they get to shine? It happens time and time again.MUTV may as well not bother showing this later
Difficult for pieces of coal to shine.
MUTV may as well not bother showing this later
I recently got a 1 year subscription to MUTV as it was 50% off, there isnt a lot on content.
If they had all the season reviews on demand that would be worth it but it really isnt worth the money, even at half price
I know, I was joking
Called it
That’s a shocking eleven. Our 2nd string is nowhere near good enough.
Double bluff. Well played, sir.
Which is more than I can say of Utd today. An utter disgrace to the shirt. :-)
Hardly a surprise we lost then, in fact I find myself judging Villa for not beating us by more
