That flick he tried at the edge of the box
Funny how we lost all momentum when he went off
He’s good enough for United, but only as 5th/6th choice in a 4-3-3. 4th choice at best and starting games in rotation/cups. Selling him would be daft because there is no middle market for players like him since COVID, he’s rarely injured, and he can probably cover RB and CB. You need to bring players in ahead of him in midfield so that he’s in the right place in the pecking order.
Pure coïncidence cause he sure as hell didn't do anything to help us get back into itFunny how we lost all momentum when he went off

I never said he did play well. But we were worse when his replacement came on. It’s factually accurate
What a defense. Can't even say Mctominay played well so comes up with this.

Also, when trying to build it from the back, he is too far ahead so it makes him one less passing option.You'd have to assume his starting position was DM since we played in a 4231, yet, he made multiple runs forward - which isn't a terrible thing if done so moderately, but he did it so often I legit started to believe he was playing at CAM.
He was entirely at fault for the first goal because he decided, for reasons known only to himself, to go on a wild dribble towards their goal, lose possession and find himself miles out of position. I hope ETH tore into him at half-time for that.

It angers me when he does it so often because all of us know that even if he were to receive the ball in that position, he doesn't have the confidence to do anything with it. And for good reason because his technique is awful.Also, when trying to build it from the back, he is too far ahead so it makes him one less passing option.
I can't even fault him. He's obviously not good enough but we have zero bodies in midfield
We have bodies in the same way, he was one when he was breaking through. You just need to be brave enough to use them.
Nowhere near good enough and never even stood out at youth level from what I saw. Mourinho for some reason promoted him to the first team.
He doesn't have the technical ability when the opposition chooses to shut us down. He's only really good enough in high intensity open matches.

I honestly hope Erik ten Hag gives one of the younger players a chance over him because the likes of Hannibal, Iqbal etc can open up passing angles and execute passes whilst maintaining composure. McTominay has never shown that at every level I've watched him play.
I’m not far off stopping watching games so long as this debacle continues. I can’t do it anymore.
