Hojlund has an injury and won't be fit to play for a few weeks... lolz
Manchester United vs Lens (Sat 5th August, 12:45 UK time)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
The Bruno/Mount experiment doesn't put enough steel in the tackle.
We're easily got at. Casemiro way off the pace.
Who cares? It's just a number.
Midfield is too erratic, can't hold the ball for long periods.
I also think Shaw needs to improve his attacking game, he's a bit too passive these days

This midfield is not working...Mount is always ahead of Bruno who will always lose the ball leaving Casemiro seriously exposed.
That's why he needed to take a touch first.That's a really bad miss but with the spin the ball had and the fact it was a bit behind him, that can happen to the best of the players. Would be absolutely livid if it happened in a PL game though
I know 10 year olds that would have scored that.
We don't look good at all... It's a bit worrying.
He’s got a long season of defending ahead of him again. Fernandes and Mount are no.10s masquerading as central midfielders. Amrabat/the rotational midfielder is a must
Some of the football is lovely.
It has nothing to do with whether I am Danish or not. It has more to do with Mount. As I write in the first sentence, I don't rate him very highly. There were times last season (after Eriksen's injury) when I preferred Fred or McT to Eriksen. But if Eriksen is just somewhat back to his "old self", he is a far better player than Mount in my eyes.
Mount is a different player than Fred, but not better than him. There is a reason why, he was not in Chelsea`s plans anymore.
Behind him? It was perfect.That's a really bad miss but with the spin the ball had and the fact it was a bit behind him, that can happen to the best of the players. Would be absolutely livid if it happened in a PL game though
Loving the Bruno Garnacho link up
Bruno level 99 today
Bruno is absolutely amazing wow just wow
I missed a few of the preseason games but it seems we look a bit light in midfield. Was this the case in the other games?
Another chance miss.
Bruno's passing is unreal
Bruno and garnacho have been very good. Bruno’s obviously the deeper one with Mount further forward.
Garnacho's an amazing out ball, his positioning is good.
Mount getting into the box is a good sign, something we have lacked massively in previous seasons.
Bruno really out there quarterbacking
At least he’s getting into attacking positions
Seems like Bruno and Mount as 8 and Casemiro as 6. Not sure if this is what we will do in PL. Seems risky
Cheers. This is a nice Champions League game then. Very enjoybale watch so far.
Garnacho has been incredible so far
Some of you obviously didn't want Mount and are making sure everybody knows it.
Another beautiful ball by Bruno. Garnacho did well.
Bruno and Garnacho best players so far.
You can't be competing for Premier League titles with a midfielder that can't run. It is really as simple as that. Mount will improve us, and he's a far better goal threat.
With likes of Mount it will surely become just that
Bruno on fire today.
Classic caf match thread
Wow!
Onana just oozes composure.
Bruno is on fire.
As good as Rashford can be, he really shouldn't feel safe in his starting spot with Garnacho behind him.
