Manchester United vs Real Madrid (Thu 27th July, 01:30 UK time)

Eriksen is looking like Mata in his last season for us. He's running in mud out there and he's weak as hell too.
 
I mean if you don't count Mbappe what left winger is better than him? Kvaratskelia is the only one I can think of but he's only had 1 top season and I'd personally still have Vini ahead of him.
I mean don't get me wrong. He's a good winger. He's got pace, tricks in him, but he isn't what I'd call truly elite.
 
Either the whole team press or don't. A few pressing is pointless
 
Might as well play with 10 men. Rashford is absolutely bad. Offers nothing. Waste of a player.

Pretty much this. Always second to every ball even when you think he should be getting that ball since he's closer than his opponent yet he'd somehow get there second. He's got no legs to play against good teams who have energy.
 
Same question right back at you, because his whole torso was offside. Maybe you think new offside rule is active, don't know.

It’s no use to try to talk sense. He was offside, though I wouldn’t go so far as to say “clearly” offside.
 
Onana is so sure on the ball that he allowed the RM player to run almost right up to him before passing it out and then we had a HUGE midfield gap to run into.

Is this what a competent ball using GK is like? :drool:

Also...we are desperate for a striker. It's so obvious.
 
Agreed. Never understood the hype around him. Peope went even as far as say he should be one of the favorite for Ballon d'or. The guy just doesn't look special to me. Watched it for both Madrid and Brazil and every time I see him, I'm left baffled by the hype. Looks like most wingers I've seen who have got pace, some trickery but poor end product for the most part. That's how I see him.
If 20g/15a in all competitions is hype and poor end product, United need some of these hyped poor end product players.

The commentator already said they’ve been told it was onside. But you guys keep talking sense.
 
Wan bissaka with the give away any time he tries to do anything that isn't passing it back
 
It seems almost every time we sign a new player they get assigned corner duty :lol: :lol:

players just gradually get shitter at set-pieces after we sign them

the new lads are allowed to take them until they turn to shit before the next summers signings take over
 
This season is going to be a long one if we do not improve the ability to press. Liverpool, city and arsenal away will be bloody murder again it looks like.
 
Casemiro has scuffed every shot

Garnacho, good effort. Our bright spot in attack
 
Our play with Onana is INSANE....Martinez is almost a CM.

I'm loving this. We just need a striker.
 
Onana must be the most two footed GK ever. He’s equally comfortable with both feet.
