I think they are done. Jose knows too. We desperately need Lindelof to get going.
They had a poor game, it happens. Bigger problem was them not receiving any protection from the midfield and constantly having eriksen, Kane, son and alli drive at them with the ball. Never going to work.
how about Maguire or Salif Sane? To partner with Baily or bothWe haven't had a commanding CB for many years now. Smalling and Jones have been up and down with their form for years. In big games you need your CB's to be good on the ball but unfortunately neither Smalling or Jones is of the required standard. But having said that, Smalling was decent in the game and did ok. Jones cost us the game. We really should be on the lookout for a Vidic/Godin type to play next to Bailly.
Who does Salif Sane play for?how about Maguire or Salif Sane? To partner with Baily or both
Hanover. I havent watched him either, just heard good things about him. Surely, there are good Center halves that are good in defending without being sh*t in passing. Koulibaly can be a good shout.Who does Salif Sane play for?
I'll keep a watch over Salif Sane, sounds Senegalese..Hanover. I havent watched him either, just heard good things about him. Surely, there are good Center halves that are good in defending without being sh*t in passing. Koulibaly can be a good shout.
Ur problem was midfield, Pogba simply doesn't have the discipline to play deep.
Jones sold two goals himself. Smalling was shocking, Spurs left him on the ball and he was snookered. He actually started not asking for it to solve the problem lol embarrassing for that level. We defend as an 11 so is everyone brilliant or do we just pretend Smalling and Jones are? Come on I’ve read hundreds of your posts you are normally bang on. I’m not believing you think this 100%.
Agreed. Only difference is that he just passed it back to DDG, who proceeded to lose it instead.Smalling’s technical deficiencies with the ball are painfully obvious, and Spurs did to him what we did to Sanchez in the Europa Final. I don’t consider him good enough for a top 10 side let alone United. Jones has been solid this season, but tonight he was shockingly bad. Neither of them are likely to be good enough long term if we have aspirations of becoming one of the elite teams in europe again.
Yeah, this is entirely correct. Anyone having a pop at either is living in bizzaro world.What a crazy thread. They have been in fantastic form of late and hadn't conceded a goal for the entire month of January before yesterday.
They were left completely exposed against Spurs. It was one of the worst midfield performances I have seen from a United team.
The two goals had nothing to do with the midfield.Ur problem was midfield, Pogba simply doesn't have the discipline to play deep.
I think the next signing should be a commanding CB. Bonucci?
The spine of the team can't be this weak.
