Manchester United 2:2 Aston Villa

Post-match discussion


Sun, 01 December 2019

We're not a team, simple as that. No movement, no plan, no idea, no confidence, nothing. Players are clueless and our whole gameplan when in position comes down to players camping on the ball and trying everything solo.

It will only get worse before it gets better.
 
I really wish he would quit cos this board will not sack him.
 
This is not acceptable. Screw the result and Ole in or out shit, the things going on the pitch or not going more like shouldnt be allowed to continue.
 
Did we really have a good transfer window if we spent it all on defence and concede 5 goals to promoted sides, and completely neglect midfield?
 
At 2-2 with 12 minutes to go I know I was screaming for Luke Shaw to come on. Was the kind of sub that we really needed at that stage. I know some people will think that Greenwood maybe needed more than 8 minutes but if anything I think he brought him on too early.
 
Juan Mata looks like an old man completely uncomfortable with the game going on around him.

It's appalling he was given a new contract, and he really shouldn't see the pitch for us - any game time he would get should be given to Gomes, not even for blooding a kid, rather, he can do no worse than Mata and at least there is an upside of improving the player and hopefully having him signing a new deal.
 
Same as usual, unimpressive, gave away goals, didnt create that many quality chances and when we did have chances we didnt take them
 
Fantastically unlucky as usual, should be top but the lucks just not gone our way so far, obviously we gotta keep Ole though doing a great job.
 
Another soulless performance. We are incredibly average. solksjaer isn't up to the job, the club are backing the wrong horse sadly.
 
So predictable that Fred, Periera and Mata would be domianted by McGinn and Grealish. Absolutely terrible.
 
Another poor game but with injuries he has to persist with the shit hand he’s dealt. Fred and perreria were so poor today. Outside a few nice crosses both were out played by villas lot
 
We are number 9 in the league, and top 4 is so far away. I know Solskjær is a true legend, but does anyone really believe, that he is the right manager for us?
 
Juan Mata looks like an old man completely uncomfortable with the game going on around him.

Mata and Jones. Shocking decisions to give both new contracts. Lingard is next I imagine.
 
Absolutely devoid of quality. Midfield pound for pound actually outclassed us. Do a combined XI of Villa and United and arguably 6 of our players on the field make it. We simply need better players
 
Without McT, no wins.
Pereira was consistent - shit always.
We desperately need no.10.
 
I thought we'd lose so positives n all that
 
Ive just fecking had enough. Have the opportunity to go 5th today and balls it up. We do the same thing every fecking time. I just dont know anymore!
 
It's not good enough. I'll support Ole until he's no longer manager as I've done with every manager post Ferguson. I'll still love the man no matter what, but too many times we've lost the lead in matches. We'd be top three if we'd won every game we've been ahead in. It's fecking infuriating
 
Nothing is working, no one looks good. This is worse than Moyes' United. Not sure what to do now. We cant hire Poch before the end of the season yet we gotta change something.
I guess we"ll just hope that Pogba and McTominay turn our fortunes around along with signing a player or two in january.
Ole is gone, the only question is when.
 
Im going insane watching this week and week out. I always find myself being optimistic before a game than end up disappointed. I'm going to stop expecting us to win and accept that we have completed the transition to a mid-table, mediocre, joke of a team. Joke of a manager.

It's fecking dreadful. We should beat fecking Aston Villa. If this team were to find themselves in the championship, they sure as helll wouldn't earn enough points for a promotion.

Dreadful.
 
It hurts a lot less when you have 0 faith in this team.
Once you put emotions aside, this is not really surprising. Thin squad, shit planning and most of all a very average position.
 
Second week in a row.

We were bad but got an underserved lead. Then we decided it wasn’t really fair on the opposition so handed them a draw.
 
It's easy to point the finger at Ole. I think he needs to go, the romance of his tenure has ended, it was a nice thought, but quite frankly, he barely inspires anyone or anything. He sits there, glum, barely reacting to anything and some of the football on show is absolutely dreadful.

Ole needs to leave. The coaches barely seem to be covering the basics.

List of things that need doing:
1. Ole leaving.
2. New coaching approach
3. Director of Football. Why we don't have one is anyone's guess but I'd put money on it being Ed Woodward being a stubborn prick.
4. Players need to spend less time doing promos for L'Oreal and Levi's and more time actually doing what they're paid to do: play football. Only once you've earned the respect and accolades, then you can lap it up commercially. The way some of these guys (I'm looking at you, 'JLingz') use United to boost their own standing commercially is quite frankly doing my nut in. Nobody plays for the United shirt anymore, they play for the paycheck.
 
Ole simply isn't good enough and there's no point in this tenure crawling about aimlessly. Put an end to it already.

The thing about this is that not one single person will be able to do anything with Fred and Pereira in the midfield. We will probably look better with McT. and Pogba if he ever comes back but to go through managers is pointless with this squad.
