Love that slot was honest in saying we deserved more than a 3-0 loss. Seems like he’ll already be better than klopp in the sense that he won’t be to biased and will give honest opinions.

Amass had Salah in his pocket the whole game. Rewatching it on MUTV. Even win battles using per strength against Salah. Amass also looking to be the only player we have who can put in a cross.

After watching yesterday's game I have a couple of insights:

Casemiro needs to be sold ASAP, the amount of time he gave the ball in our own half is geniunely worrying. Eriksen needs to join him as well.

I know some people put their nose up at Ugarte who they believe is a very basic passer. If can get someone for the DM role who won't give the ball away and instead keep it simple and pass it to a teamate, we will cut down on the amount of times the oppo teams will shred us on the counter.

De Ligt needs to be signed yesterday. It's crazy that we are haggling other 3-5 million Euros, when we have to rely on Lindelof and Evans as our CBs.

As for Lindelof, the should be done here as well. He literally offer nothing of value.

And its been this way for a decade. I had assumed that this INEOS lot were good business orientated, but how can it be good business to keep paying the likes of Casemiro? It would be cheaper in the long run to let him go at a knock down price, say 20 million or less even just to get him off the books and off the wage bill.

Casemiro earns a ton of money that United agreed to pay him, they could give him away but unless someone pays Casemiro wages he's gonna say feck that and there's nothing the club can do

Casemiro needs to be sold ASAP,

Nobody wants to buy him or for that matter, Sancho.

The worst thing about this is that it gave the Scousers bragging rights.

I dont understand this stupid "basic" passer argument. How is that relevant when you have a players like Eriksen who will never even earn himself a position for any pass bcs hes just attrocious on the turn and can only play in walking tempo, and same applies for Casemiro being super slow and very lazy in his passing.

Both players lose the ball so much for us it is essential to get rid of them and replace them with a hardworking players. Football is not about 50m crossfield pass, its about quick short passes and winning the ball in transition higher up the pitch. I can see if we field players like Ugarte, Mount, Bruno, Mainoo, we can start pressing higher and finally close the gap to the top6. If anything we havent been bad at passing as much but we ranked so low off the ball..

The vast majority of people here seemed to have forgotten those stats after the Cup win.

As they say, the league never lies.

Exactly the jury is out on all the Ineos Fan boys, if we finish 6-9th this year, the short term good will, may very quickly turn to vitriol hatred that’s how quickly our fan base turn.

It's only human nature: the more desperate (in terms of winning) people get the more extreme and overexcited they get. We are in the delusional stage, which can turn on a dime into sheer anger in no time.

From: People need to calm down, we've got a serious footballing team running this club now, Ashworth and Wilcox will have their targets. I'm not worried

To: What a bunch of fakers, Murtough 2.0 etc after our first couple of losses!!!

Believe it or not, college football teams actually play American football.

As a side gig?

I’m pretty sure ineos have come in and got a reality check over the last 6 months. It’s a big job and will take time, you don’t erase 11 of years of mismanagement and neglect in one season. Ain’t happening. It’s a long term project.
