Hello, my name is Fracture and I'm here to overreact.
Manchester United vs Perth Glory (Sat 13th July, 12:00 UK time)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Dunno what you expect from Chong when he plays on right side of the pitch, need ya remind you this is a team which played through left for years and its ingrained in their brains that right side doesnt exist, we could have Messi on the right, he would be ignored.
Rough game so far.#4 is a cnut
Why do people think James has been brought to sort out our RW? He’s a left winger isn’t he ?
Martial, Chong and Periera, so poor tbh.
James and Young have been our best players.

Their keeper is a Poo fan, get that cnut!
Not much has changed then.
Not true. Usually, he's not moving at all.Not much has changed then.
He is on the right now.
Hope he does well as the season goes. So far looks all hype no substance
Boring so far.
James is doing well, so is Young amusingly.

What's the point of the opposition defending the entire half ? I don't get it. It's a freaking friendly. Why don't they attack a little bit ?
Chong and James switched wings.
VAR!!!!
Alright, it looks like Chong and James exchanged positions.
Let's see.
Let's see.
No question this just underlines how much we crave creatives in midfield. It is all crisp passing without enough quality cutting edge purpose.
James the star so far.

Second half should be better I believe.
This will happen in the league next season. We better figure out how to break it down
This guy calling our manager AUSSIE who is he?
who is he?I remember people saying the same last pre season. Moyes pre season too.
It's only 1 half of pre season football, so of course means feck all, but the common notion that you can't really tell anything from pre season is a bit of a nonsense IMO.
Hi Fracture
Much better from Chong. Great to see a player dribbling like that.
Not really, the oppositions in PL will at least try to counter.
Loving the energy from the youngsters, Chong not settled in yet, hope he finds his feet.
Can't help but feel with a Bernado type influence in the midfield there we'd look 10x better. Some magic there to unlock defences rather than popping 15 short passes around the 18yard box followed by a hopeful shot.

That will please Aussie.
You see, he moved on left and he is more involved.
We play some nice Football but still look a bit clueless when it comes to unlocking the oppositions defence's. Axel Tuanzebe and Daniel James in particular have really impressed.
Wooo Chong did something! Maybe he’s better through the middle?
Not surprising as Young is a decent and experienced player with a head on him, and a tryer to boot. It's at the highest level where he struggles now.
Seems like with switching the wings Chong became more effective while James disappeared a little.
From the first 45 mins of the first game with a shadow squad? Are you serious?
"which will please Aussie, errrr Ole"
He is mainly right footed? He can play either side
Great run Chong. Looked a pen. More like it
We have predominately played on the left side. It might take a while to fully intergrate the right wing and as such whoever is tasked with playing that side will tend to struggle a bit.
Maybe like number 7 our right wing is cursedSeems like with switching the wings Chong became more effective while James disappeared a little.
We can't tell anything from such a game that's for sure. Maybe in the upcoming tougher games.
Same. However, it is pre season and I cant imagine this is the only system Ole will try.
Be interesting to see if we continue with a 4231 when Pogba comes on.
Good run from Chong. As with most matches I saw him last year he's not done much that has impressed me to be honest, he's muscled and crowded off the ball too often for my liking. Hopefully his decision-making improves and he stop going down quite as many blind allies.
