Manchester United vs Lens (Sat 5th August, 12:45 UK time)

[Crimson King]

We’ll be seeing a few of those this season

Bet we don't see one.

 

[saik]

Finished 2nd last year behind PSG and they’re unbeaten this pre-season.

Very well drilled team.

Finished a point behind PSG last season.

Finishes 1 point behind PSG.

Cheers lads!

Problem with a sweeping keeper, unless you have a very quick and mobile DM you are always exposed on the counter. Neither are the CBs quick enough to deal with this higher line. Not sure ETH has really thought this through.

Nothing to do with DM ffs.

 

[TrustInJanuzaj]

Just not good enough from Dalot. It’s a two yard pass and it’s just lazy and lacking concentration. As much as I want to get excited that still just symbolises this team far too much.

 

[ShinjiNinja26]

The midfield balance is off. We need someone more defensively solid to play alongside Case. I’m not sure about Mount and Bruno together

That’s why it’s vital we sign Amrabat, he offers us far more solidity in midfield when paired with Casemiro.

 

[Woodzy]

Onana

Not his fault. He’s a sweeper keeper playing the way he is expected to. You don’t give the ball away like that as a defender, Dalot 100% to blame.

 

[Frank Grimes]

FFS. MOUNT CRAP, ONANA CRAP. TEN HAG OUT!!

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

Dalot awful.

 

[SuperiorXI]

Dalot not doing well

 

[Catt]

What happened??

That's what's worrying me.

We don't look solid enough at the back at all and our rbs are both not the best on the ball, that error could've come from AWB and no one would be shocked.

 

[AltiUn]

We’ll be seeing a few of those this season

I'd be staggered if we saw more than one 45 yard first-time chip this season.

 

[ShinjiNinja26]

Shite from Dalot.

 

[pratyush_utd]

Dalot

 

[peridigm]

We’re going to concede a lot of goals early on until our players get used to Onana.
Dalot should have done better there though.

 

[crossy1686]

To be fair, that was fecking shit by Dalot. He's shite in possession sometimes.

We need a new RB badly

 

[PlayerOne]

Made us look silly. Worrying form going into next weekend. Players don't just switch on and magically click

 

[mav_9me]

AWB and Dalot have now made shitty midfield passes, the finish is class though!

Just have to live with them for this year. Not much we can do unless we can find a cheap RB prospect.

 

[Adisa]

Chipped twice in three games is not a good start for him. Dalot with a shite pass as usual didn’t help but still, I can see it happening a fair few times more this season.

It's a nature of how high he plays which is why we bought him.

 

[Semper Fudge]

Now you keep your arse in the fecking penalty area, Onana.

Dalot playing that pass like an idiot as well.

Nah. All Dalot.

 

[Gaidal]

We still need a rb, but we already knew that.

 

[ForeverRed1]

Awb rubbing his hands together

 

[RedRonaldo]

Dalot again

 

[Tom Van Persie]

Dalot has been awful man.

 

[AndySmith1990]

Rubbish from Dalot

 

[Sylar]

Well, Dalot at least had a few good months before the world cup last season

 

[astracrazy]

DDG would have saved that.

And would have been under real pressure 30 seconds before as he would have been glued to his line instead of sweeping up loose balls

 

[Ceteris]

some of our passing has been atrocious today

 

[Frank Grimes]

Dalot lacks something.

 

[Lights Out]

That's on Dalot for me, idiotic place to give the ball away.

You think?

Of course it’s on Dalot!

 

[Dannn411]

Has been coming. Disjointed start. Most of the team sloppy and sleepwalking. Need to wake up. Only 1 week left now.

 

[cyberman]

Made us look silly. Worrying form going into next weekend. Players don't just switch on and magically click

They do

 

[christinaa]

Defensive mistakes from our back four

 

[acnumber9]

It's a nature of how high he plays which is why we bought him.

Does he need to be so high when we have possession on the halfway line?

 

[crossy1686]

We’re going to concede a lot of goals early on until our players get used to Onana.
Dalot should have done better there though.

What? So that goal was caused by Dalot not knowing Onana well enough to not give the ball away on the half way line?

 

[JuriM]

Diogo overcomplicates things.

 

[Telsim]

Brilliant job that...

 

[Dinghy]

Still lots of time to get in a new right back. Don't know why the feck it's not a priority, they're both god awful.

 

[The Hilton]

Dalot not concentrating at all

 

[Unlikely lad]

Not sure ETH has really thought this through.

Yeah I’m sure he’s just winging it
