Zero fecking energy
We will get done here if we’re not careful can see it coming.
If Rashford won’t play further up sub him off please ole. Martial wide and igalho up top

I think he's been told to stay deep.It's far too obvious its tactical.

 

[Revan]

Yeah but one has room to improve while the other is a finished product

Yeah sure. Players' technique suddenly improves after they are 21. I mean, I don't remember a single case of that happening, but as always at United, time is gonna magically improve things.

 

[Fluctuation0161]

Pogba, Bruno and Matic have problems with Tielemans, Nididi and Choudhury. Leicester's midfield is stronger physically than ours, and Bruno in particular has problems with that.

Also dirtier than us and the ref is letting them get away with it.

 

[TheLord]

Chelsea winning 2-0 at half time.
This is the biggest 45 minutes in United's recent history.

 

[pascell]

Pogba and Fernandez are just nowhere to be seen. They can't get the front three going. I'd bring on Fred for Pogba, and Ighalo for Rashford. Put Martial on the right.

Can't do much when they have a back 5 and 2 DMs in and around their box, the best thing for us would be to get an early goal and force them to change it up.

 

[dal]

If there ever was a time where Ole needs to earn his money, it is now.

Remind them we are Manchester United, stand up and be counted and have the courage to fecking play.

 

[mav_9me]

This is nerve wracking. Have a headache from the tension.

 

[Rozay]

Same old.... start OK then let opposition back into game. Looks like tactic is holding on til late and hoping to get a goal on the break when they become desperate. trouble is, what happens if they score before "late on"...

Gary Neville is right: we are predictable. I'd add that unless Bruno has an excellent game, we look as ordinary as we did before he arrived.

Tell me again the point of Pogba... done almost nothing although I suppose we should be grateful he hasn't given the ball away in a dangerous position yet. Rashford looks exhausted, martial is a bit quiet. Wonder if Iggy should come on for one of them. Only Greenwood looks any real threat. Is Mata on the bench? If he has a good game, he might be able to open up their defence

Very worrying, especially with Chelsea going ahead just before half time. This feels more tense then any last game for years - even those we needed to win to ensure a title, maybe because those title-winning teams were so much better than this one

Pogba has been far better than Bruno tbh.

 

[space]

can't take this

 

[RooneyLegend]

Martial isn't in the game which is bad news for us. We desperately need to get him involved. Leicester give Pogba this much space can only bode well for us.

 

[mu4c_20le]

This is nerve wracking.

Imagine how leciester fans must feel then

 

[IAmAWinner]

Rashford is bang average. If we get Sancho, Rashford should be benched. Simple as that.

 

[-Supreme-]

Sancho's arrival will put him out of team and bring Greenwood more in the center.

Take this to Rashford performance thread, you will get shot down.

He's the caf's golden child, Rashford is undroppable in their eyes.

 

[jderbyshire]

My big worry is us trying to defend a draw after 70/80 minutes.

I couldn't take that shit.

Need to be going for the win no matter what. Get that 3rd place.

 

[Suedesi]

Or in his own half when is under pressure. The only time I am comfortable on seeing him with the ball is when the opposition just ignore him and let him have it knowing that he cannot do anything with it.

130 million spent on defense and we look anything but the finished article there.

 

[fps]

I am worried about: De Gea, AwB, Williams, Maguire, Matic, Pogba...
I am not expecting much from: Bruno, Rashford
Hoping for something special from: Martial, Greenwood.

Not the best recipe for success.

We don’t need success, it would be nice, but things are fine as they are. Space is going to open up in transition in the second half.

 

[Cassidy]

My big worry is us trying to defend a draw after 70/80 minutes.

Agree. We need to get a goal before 70 mins

 

[prateik]

Vardy telling Atkinson when he is planning a starfish.

 

[BlahRules]

Also dirtier than us and the ref is letting them get away with it.

Bruno got fouled by Justin but it was said to be fair when he never got the ball.

 

[Withnail]

I can see us scoring. I can't see them getting two

 

[Schmeichel=God]

Operation 'let AWB have the ball' seems to be every week now.

This guy is not good enough for a PL title aspiring team. He's woeful on the ball.

Beginning to really worry me to be honest. My consolidated opinion now is that he is actually worse than final seasons Valencia going forward.

 

[Woodzy]

45 minutes to show what sort of character this squad has.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

so this is it, this season all down to these 50ish minutes !

 

[mu4c_20le]

Vardy telling Atkinson when he is planning a starfish.

 

[Skåre Willoch]

Come on, lads. Finish them off with two quick goals! Believe!

 

[Paxi]

I don’t understand why people are saying Rashford has been poor? What barometer are we judging him on? He created a good opening for Greenwood had some decent touches. Had a half volley on goal and sold a cb down the river but missed the shot. He’s been our most dangerous forward imo.

 

[Himannv]

If anyone has a good river, please drop me a PM with the link.

 

[Andycoleno9]

Now comes situation because i am Ole out. In first half Leicester killed our game. Now i woukd expect from my manager to make tactical changes. Rash and Mason are completely shut. We must make use of them.

And don't allow Leicester easy counters!

 

[SirAnderson]

Here we go! Let's do this!!!!

 

[Zen86]

Leicester have hardly been great I expected far more from them, if we can just take a little more care with the ball we'll win this

They really missed a trick. We’ve looked tired, sloppy, and low on confidence in the last few games. I fully expected them to fly out and pressure us from the beginning.

 

[NK86]

Our title winning team had leaders across the dressing room. Who do we have in this team? Who can the players turn to when they are a bit lost or tensed. Maguire surely doesn't seem to be as commanding as I had hoped. Greenwood seems to be the only one showing for the ball. Martial and Rashford just don't seem to have the fight now it seems. Let's hope we can get one out of the locker.

 

[MyOnlySolskjaer]

I get Leicester's plan, they are keeping it tight and shutting down our attack and will go more offensively in the 75th... But what the hell is our plan?

 

[ghagua]

Bruno and Rashford off. Fred and Ighalo on with Pogba at 10 and Tony LW, we win comfy

Agree.

 

[sammsky1]

Im currently telling myself we have europa because my heart cant take a loss here. I have work i need to do today but im afraid i'll go straight to bed if we lose.

Might have to keep reminding ourselves of this late into the game!

 

[thepolice123]

feck me can the defence hang on. They were almost carved open a few times.

 

[Based Adnan]

He didnt miscue and most players will het out paced by Vardy its hardly a critism not being able to keep pace with him

Apparently covering the near post (as you should do) is miscuing the ball and being outpaced by Vardy (but still recovering the ball) is grounds for criticism.

Ridiculous.

 

[DickDastardly]

This just might end up 0-0.

 

[Andycoleno9]

What a ball Matic

 

[Bojan11]

Oh Martial

 

[Vernon Philander]

brilliant Matic
