All the problems tonight actually started from the fact that Maguire cannot run

Una funny for this thread Ehn rash that is poor in decision making and doesn’t covert chances or martial that falls almost all the time ? Same martial that plays like he is not bothered ? May b kna another rash n martial i dey watch.
We relied too much on short passing and made life easy for Everton in the dying minutes, except for Rashford who attempted take on or drove the behind the right back of Everton. We needed to be doing that often

Tuanzebe is a low budget Baily without Baily's tackling sense.

He's tackling are too crude and has poor passing and basic ball control.

I dey talk am in the afternoon that they should cash out on him the first time we get and fill up his space with serious defender.

Some one was busy telling me that he hasn't had enough game time to judge him, as if Man utd is now a mid table club that give player time to develop. It was the same shit that wenger was doing with academy players that made them retained a lot of average players in their team without buying quality players that can challenge for league title, all because the said players are academy products.
You don't just throw players away like that. Was it not same Tuanzebe that die a job against Mbappe in Paris?

Cavani that was still pressing ??
Pressing is a defensive strength. An offensive threat from Martial and Rashford would have restricted Everton's ability to go forward.

Rashford was having a terrible game but you decided to play him for 90mins with Martial on the bench..... Proper Ole masterclass
#OleIn
As for me, it was Cavani I wanted out since about 70 minutes. Rashford and Martial would have caused more fear to Everton in the last 20 minutes. Canavi has lost his legs, so defenders can afford to take eyes off him if not in the box

cheesy

Let take it easy with Tuanzebe please, Rushford had most moments to kill the Match, rather he chose to kill us.

OGS made the right Sub, he wanted to defend the Lead and as well waste some Seconds, but didn't work out.

We do not need to feel pain over it, embrace Reality and have peace.

Proudly a Fencist.
Really? Even as you are typing, it is with pains

Ole at the wheel again

Why Bring in Tuanzebe..

Ole is just unnecessarily stubborn

Well I should keep quiet since we scored 9 goals against Soton
If he did not bring Tuanzebe and they equalized us, you would still have blamed him.

This Tuanzebe Na just rubbish. His first touch resulted in that free kick they scored from
And to think Greenwood has been doing a neat defensive jon in that area of the field

Watch De Gea closely and u'll see that he rarely leaves his line.
That puts the defenders under pressure. This is why he might never be rated as number 1 in the world. Even in the EPL, I doubt if he is still number 1.

That aspect of goalkeeper is very important and Romero used it to help us win the Europa. If I remember well, Romero was doing well again in the last Europa until Ole decided DeGea has to keep, and we were knocked out.

Of course! De Gea is way too skinny and light for a goal keeper, he relies a lot on his reflexes and shot stopping abilities. Once his reflexes starts to dwindle with age he will be done as a top goalie.
He makes our defence less confident. He cost us some vital points. In comparison, Van Der Sar will pass as a goalkeeper+defender compared to DDG.

so we should exchange him for the Brighton keeper, àbí what is your point?

See that corner kick Brighton keeper came out to hold (not punched away) about 10-12 yards from is line in the 92nd minute and got his defender relieved. Degea can never do that. He is not capable of that.

I'll suggest Haaland though

Haaland is still Younger than Kane.... I'm still not certain about our backline especially when I see the partnership of Lindelof and Maguire in the lineup

I heard Bayern are also going out for Upamecano
The defence is shaking.

Has he been awarded any trophy with the victories he got against our Former managers??
Not about trophies yet, he has built a team that with one spike, it becomes a world class team. Just one or two magic player to join and we are there. What is the essence of winning a trophy and the next season you are at bottom part of the table?

This season is close to where we were in 2005, 2006 before Carrick, Evra and Vidic joined. But now we need to upgrade on Cavani, we wait to see how quickly Ahmad Diallo settles into the right side of attack. We can buy a world class striker like Kane

More front and sacrifice a defender that's how we scored nine

But oleouters go still find something to complain about.
Ole has tried. He has saved so much money for the club and achieved same results another coach would have done spending €300m a season. Gone are the days we go out chasing two or three players throughout a transfer window got turned down and then settled for an alternative that cost €80m. The alternative comes and benches Martial, Greenwood, etc. The half baked new transfer prevent the cohesion among the old players to continuing strengthening.

That is when we see 1000 pages of argument where some defend an €80m striker who has not scored for 8 matches, and some attack him. The press start writing why he should be given time or why he is still the best in the team. Or why he should be benched. The coach would them be ashamed to bench a player he spent €80m to buy

Ole has gone for low key players and Manchester United is becoming an attractive team for big players to join in the future. If we can get one or two big signings right, we will be there. Ole has beaten all the managers people want him replaced with.

Elampiro, I am satisfied seeing Shaw and Wan-Bissaka scoring and assisting...The first goal is stuff of Trnet and Robertson...

This is what I want, attacking contributions from our fullbacks just so our wing forwards can take up positions in the box...

Best performance in a while, congrats to the manager and players, this is the way to go...

Martial scored, not just one but two...Manchester City forwards have nothing on him...Before you come here to say they have 2 games in hand, let me be the first to tell you they'll not win any and their forwards won't score...
If the fullbacks can contribute to goals goals, good. But each team with its different strength depending on combination of players' characteristics.

Our style of play is becoming more too direct and physical for Bruno.

Those talking about James being in United. Is it not same United they had the kind of Richardson, Obertan, Gibson, Cleverley, Tosic?

McTominay delights me with his goals from outside of the box
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 9:08am On Jan 27, 2021
I remember last season when some guys thought it was the the duty of the Full backs and DM/CM to create chances. And I said that the forwards should create for themselves as it was under SAF, and that it was the primary responsibility of the CAM to create. Just look at our Assists this season and I have been vindicated (so far)

Every team has its uniqueness. If Liverpool gets their Assists from the Fullbacks, it must not apply to us.

Peak Rooney was something else. It's a shame he didn't take care of his body properly like them Zlatan and Ronaldo. He could have been playing at this level till 36 - 37
He stopped working hard too early and the his body betrayed him

Rashford and Martial in the field together is when we are most dangerous in attack. We need a third player who can play like them or even better. Or a small player who can use passes to open up a tight defence. Like a younger Mata

Ole played Mctominay and Fred to be a double pivot, they are doing the work of one person, a competent DM. Danilo and Verrati was on Bruno. The game was begging for Matic for Mctominay, Then Fred for Pogba/VDB. Martial off in 60 mins for Greenwood. But no our manager is waiting for Jesus to come
McTominay and Fred were okay bar the carelessness of Fred. If I am not wrong, their mobility as well as Tuanzebe caged the frontline of PSG. PSG has have very fast legs in their front and they would murder slow legs like Pogba a d Matic combo

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:58pm On Dec 02, 2020
The forwards messed up the match and mid way into the 2nd half at 1-1 the midfield and defenders pushed forward out of impatience. PSG began to explore some gaps that were left open. If we kept being conservative in our approach with counter attacking, we could have gone home with a point and qualify tonight

A very good game shame we have martial as a forward.
Rashford square for Martial was not exactly perfect. He could have done better with his pass.
