An assist. AN ASSIST.
He kept Pirlo on the job for an entire season. Don't know I want the same thing for us, tbh.SAF told him to keep him his man in the job and boy is he trying to
Sensational goal. The team looked better balanced with someone alongside him doing the running.
Was never the issue. Rather telling how a media narrative can be peddled & gets picked up.
Has never pressed, has always scored goals.
Which onethat finish though
Somebody needs to check on @Bebestation and @captaincantona.
I'm not 100% sure about this because I didn't watch Juventus but I think the big difference is that Juventus played a 352 with Ronaldo and Dybala.
This was again showed in the video I posted showing that playing a 2 man striker partnership would stop the pressing problem United currently have. This is why Bruno tries to get forward or Greenwood tries to get forward. Currently no pressing Ronaldo as our main and lead striker means our opponent CB'S can shift position and pick pockets of space to open up and pass as soon as it does. Its very easy. A 2 man strike partnership sits with each CB and stops that happening. Also 3 at the back is going to help defensively.
Good to see him in a striking partnership finally.
Will stop alot of the pressing and positioning problems.
Hope it works.
We’ve been patchy for 20+ games, well into last season but yes it was Ronaldo who lost us games he didnt play in &/or wasn’t at the club for. Having a world class finisher is never the issue.Ridiculous wasn’t it. I resisted biting when reading it on here and just waited for the inevitable - Ronaldo winning a game of football. Only took three days..
I'd say just rotate it - Ronaldo Cavani Bruno with:This setup suits him greatly. Means we can't get Sancho in the side, and prob rarely greenwood. But this is the best way to use the players we have.
Which one
You said that much something was bound to stick, I mostly remember he was the fault for the team leaking goals and shouldn’t start matches…Told you guys before the way to sort it out was to play it in a strikers partnership because he is not a lone striker.
He has always played in a striker partnership and had one at United, Madrid and Juventus.
Making him lonely had its problems.
The fact he has a partner means the partner can press and position themselves instead of Ronaldo who would have to do it by himself as a lone striker if we played him in a 4231. Ole managed him right today.
See, this is what I was telling you from before - we need to play 2 strikers if we are playing Ronaldo.
We played better Pressing as a team completely overall rather than when we played 4231 didn't we?
It's because now when we do it - we don't get opened up by one man staying still and one man going forward.
Finally some tactics that worked and also linked with what I said
You said that much something was bound to stick, I mostly remember he was the fault for the team leaking goals and shouldn’t start matches…
But we’ll forget about it now and celebrate
Well let’s just say, they are definitely not ok now… probably their worst day of season.Somebody needs to check on @Bebestation and @captaincantona.
Good job it wasn't straight at Lloris as it would've ripped his head off. Loved that one.I wish that second goal stood
