Exactly. Mikki is useless in a bus parking scheme like the one we used ysterday. JM should have gone with 3 CM and 2 pacy guys to flank Lukaku, that way we would have viable avenues for counter attacks.

Nobody is against the OCCASIONAL defensive scheme, the problem is when you do it to such an extreme that we have no avenue to hit counter attacks and our attack looks toothless AND when you do it almost every time we face a good team. Bus parking can't be the only way to get 1 point away from home against good teams.

People are saying Fergie parked the bus against big teams but Fergie didn't have a squad worth in excess of 500m pounds...
Lol. Thank you o.
Tho i really try to not bring up how much we've spent in arguments, coz it can be irrelevant at times.

SAF didnt spend up to 500m but he still had the best teams in the league for so many years. And he only setup his teams to defend when the situation demanded it.

But for Mourinho, u can always expect him to defend in 90% of the big games and even against sub-par opponents despite all the money he spends

I think the major problem here is that some folks don't get the difference between Outright bus-parking & a tactically cautious approach to a game.

There is a thin line between both though...

Where will the 3CM come from? It's like you guys were forgetting that we had no other establish CM on the bench. The others were out injured.

Away matches are always dicey and you have to be pragmatic in your approach. I have no problem with Mou parking the bus away from home to gain a point as long as he doesn't do that at OT.

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by lekkie073(m): 11:13am On Oct 15, 2017
you guys are suppose to know by now (thru d antecedents of Jose) how he works. the man believes he has a strategy to win on d long run. he approaches matches accordingly.
the last time Jose won d league with Chelsea, he had 7wins and 2draws in the first 9 games. guess the draws......at home mancity and manutd respectively. i think it was in the united game that he went as far as using hazard as the top striker and I remember ppl saying he was too defensive in his approach. but he took his 1point and moved on.
against mancity manutd Liverpool and arsenal, it was only Liverpool he managed to beat away. the rest were draws. but did that stop him from winning the league? no. this man has a tried and tested format to getting his job done and if u want him to succeed u just have to let him do it his own way.
he was told to bring manutd back to UCL, he did it whether he parked a trailer or a train ( d end justifies the means) am less concerned.
as far as I know, he is on track. he knows his job and he is always bent on delivering with his own strategy. whether u his employer like his strategies or not is ur own palaver but if u tell him what u need, he tries to get it for u his own way.
shikena!

I understand what you mean but the way some people make it as if mourinho parks bus 38 games a season is totally unfair to reality. How many games have mourinho parked bus since he came to United, most of the games we called bus parking, is just that we are very cautious which Fergie also does.

Our match in 1 Oct 2011 versus Norwich, Fergie saw that we are missing some players, he set up to hit them on counter at Home, they dominated the game, we hit them with just 2 shots on target. So let's stop this hypocrisy.

Below is our match in 2012 that Fergie required a draw versus man city.

What is the difference between that and the Liverpool game

My opinion, the personnel was best suited for 3- 5 -2, De Gea - smalling - jones - darmian (3) - val - Herrera - Matic - Young with Miki in front (5) - Martial - Lukaku...
Young was poor on the right and Mou didn't notice it...I'd have preferred to see Miki taken off for Mata and Rashford replacing Young just to give a chance on the counter...

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by larride(m): 11:26am On Oct 15, 2017
SAF did this, SAF did that, he did it with average Joe, he didn't spend much bla bla bla. Who are the managers that SAF had to contend with? Mou came to the league and won it back to back with SAF still there, Even Wenger had his share of league win titles, Mark fĂșcking hughes once coached City, Ancelotti came to the league and won it while SAF was there, even Mancini. Using different era to compare just to gain some useless cheap point.

Compare the competitiveness during SAF reign to this era.
Liverpool under Benitez, Kenny Daglish, Rodgers and Co
Tottenham under Harry and co

Compare then to now, Chelsea has Conte, City has Pep, Tot has Poch, Liverpool has Kloop, all top coaches in their own right. Even teams like Southampton has coach like Puel, Newcastle has Benitez, Watford has Silva who could be considered good coaches in their own rights also. You can't deny that the competitiveness of the EPL has increased tremendously.
