Our ball possession was tame and meaningless. Whenever we are in a dangerous position, we often made the wrong decisions and showed a lack of desire.

Most of our players were also sloppy and easily gave the ball away when pressured. We barely created any meaningful chances nor caused any real damage. It wasn’t really a good match.
When you look at it from where both teams are coming from, you'll have a different view.

We were sloppy and gave away the ball easily but had the most possession, what does that tell you about RM?

We had a much better game in both halves than against arsenal in the second half. But because of the scoreline the match was much better right?
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oladeji245(m): 4:00am On Jul 27, 2023
We need a striker and we will get one.
Bruno experiment on the wing is irritating,thank God this is a preseason game.
Onana is a breath of fresh air.
People hate to hear or see it but Antony is important to our team. We are simply better with him in the team.
All in all it wasn’t a bad game from either side. Was surprised to see manutd even having more possession.

I needed to mention the Arsenal game cuz you're digging through posts, posting receipts, shouting I told you so after a loss in a fvcking friendly to fvcking Real Madrid lol.

Makes me curious your reaction to the Arsenal game since you take these friendlies so serious.


Point where I did "I told you so?"

My only annoyance in this game was lack of CM. I have even said anything about the loss.

You guys are just restless because of your funny takes in the past.

We're going to have a couple of this moment during the preseason so I suggest you conserve your energy o or better still ignore. If you think we won't concede goals when season starts, you need to wake up

Because we lost a pres season match to real Madrid?

This is exactly how we will play and lose against top teams. Infact, na friendly make the score dey honourable. If it was a competitive game, the team would have conceded like 4 goals against this Madrid side.

The style of ‘no penetration’ footie we want to play is not sustainable.

I hate the type of friendlies you'll play against top sides with these obvious deficiencies and still win convincingly like against Arsenal.

Let season start now, make we go Emirates, you'll meet a totally different thing.

Some people just like moaning for moaning sake.
United played well,unlike previous years when all we do against big teams is seat back.
We were competitive and created chances,had more possession including the first half.
It wasn’t like if Madrid completely dominated us or something and the first goal was offside. And overall it’s a preseason game.

Na striker we need and we are trying to get one.

Why do you people keep saying CB like it's a top priority? Guy. Have you seen our midfield? That Central Midfield role. Our Right back is average.

This was me talking about how we needed bodies in the midfield days back.

They said it's not important as CB. Today they are saying the same thing I was saying.

When them catch una, una go change mouth. Too many chameleons in here.

Everything you've posted last two hours reeks of 'i told you so'.

Btw, what funny takes? The part I talked about how we plan to keep possession? Isn't that obvious?

If we go through our previous posts, I probably mentioned needed a CM far more than you did. I've always hammered on the need of a CM like Dejong. Always talked about how our biggest problem was lack of control in the midfield. Everyone here probably feels the same way. But when the manager goes for Mount instead, and wants a lower profile CM as the other midfield signing, what do you do than discuss what the plan might be?

You're digging posts of people trying to make sense of what ETH's plan might be for the team. As no one's even truly sure. You wan dey use these posts troll. Abeg make e end.

Maybe it's stubbornness or lack of options because I don't know why a coach will continue to do the same thing over and over with no result. Which match has Bruno ever shone from the wings? I don't understand.

I hope the loss will push the manager to intensify search for more key players in the team.

I actually think Arsenal got a better result than us in the previous game. It’s not about the results.

Our play was disjointed and tardy. I want to put it down to a lack of fitness. Or maybe ETH was gunning for something else. Or the Nainoo injury.

Good for you. Wetyn dey vex me be say some people think the GK is more important than a CM.
Some even say we need a CB more, as it stands.

Onana did well. But he can only do so much. He can't do pass himself.

Midfield was fine bar eriksen.
First half and second half we had more possession of the ball than Madrid.
We created chances and didn’t score. Shots on target including first half was same.
It wasn’t one sided and I don’t know the game you watch.
Our problem in this game was our useless attackers plus playing Bruno out of position,but we know that already.
And it’s a preseason sef. I’m sure by the time the season start we will have a striker.

If our play was that disjointed, then RM was worse. For most part of the game, they depended on their pacy attack because they couldn't keep the ball.

This performance against a team like Madrid with our best players playing out of position and without a striker wasn’t bad at all.
Both teams matched each other and the stats even reflected it.
