Keepers get lobbed, it’s hardly a surprise when your fullback plays a perfect through ball to the opposition. If that shot is any less perfect than it was then he saves it anyway, from the position he was stood in.
Manchester United vs Lens (Sat 5th August, 12:45 UK time)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
I know its pre season, but the football has been shit. some great passes, but garbage buildup. Poor football.
Most of the United players still don't look sharp with a week to go until the season starts.
Won't make top 6 this season.
The Bruno - Garnacho pipeline is very effective.
Furthermore, the Garnacho - Mount connection is almost telepathic, they link up well together.
That's the spirit!
We have a collection of De Gea supporters who are desperate for Onana to fail at the expense of United and the manager doing well so they can say ‘Dave would have saved that’
Lots of positives in our play
Dalot messing up isn't his fault.
He doesn't need to be that high up though, that's the point.
We weren't that high up the pitch so just In side his box would have been perfect. Anything more and you're inviting a shot like that should a turnover happen.
9/11 players don't look up for it. Hopefully they'll get up to speed before season starts.
It's David May. He probably was.
At what point do we start worrying about this season?
christFinally.. A shaw shot
Come on, it's only pre season
Erik will be quite pleased apparently
Calm down
Overall I don't think we've had a great preseason. Not talking about the results. In general we've been underwhelming with our possession against set defenses and unimpressive with our pressing (I maybe wrong here) and definitely not great with our transition defense.
Utterly crap performance so far. Just like last year we've had a poor pre-season and don't look ready, typical.
Yep. We have been a bit sloppy now and again but otherwise decent. Still not the required standard but it will come, especially with another couple of new additions.
Noted.
Apart from the playing out from the back and Garnacho I’m struggling to see much
Exactly. It's lapse of concentration from Dalot, nothing to do with Onana.
This is terrible
We were winning it all in that decade, just in case you're not even aware. It was also the best decade overall for football.
Such a stupid thing to say.
Ten Hag looks abit pissed off.
Car crash of a thread. Everywhere the consensus is Dalot played a poor pass, until you come to the damned RedCafe.
When the season starts and we continue this performances.
To be fair to the poster, this could be the 4th loss in a row and we’re still looking incredibly disjointed as a team and relying on individual effort to make something happen again.
Is Varane really that great on the ball ?
We’re already in full meltdown and the season hasn’t even started. Gotta love the caf
It's on Dalot - mistakes like that are unacceptable because we all know that that is Onana's game out there.
Dalot should know.
Rashford is a shocking CF not bothered at all doing any hard or physical work at all.
De Gea posts here under multiple alias
We don’t look any better than last season and even if Hojlund comes in and is a monster from day one, that still won’t fix our clear issues.
We NEED Amrabat and another midfielder.
We NEED Amrabat and another midfielder.
It's ridiculous reading this
Not sure why I am during this. Also realise why for the most part I avoid it during matches I watch on TV (not at the game).
Everything is OTT
Lens will have known coming in they’ll get chances to lob our keeper and they took it.
I think we are struggling with our phase I build up.
That is inexcusable.
