Lana1:


weedtaker finally gets his video evidence.
Leyqute & afrodoc over to you guys.

Where Pogba for dey do those local dance? In France oŕ he visited his village in Africa?

GloryIsaac:
It's not the main Liverpool team.

Is it a friendly match they are playing?

Villa beating Liverpool 2.0

24 mins

afrodoc2:
It was after last season but before this season started.

Players can change their mìnds depending on the reason they wanted to leave

I remember Coogar and I having an argument about this Pogba. He said SAF made a mistake to let him go. But I said no. Reason, his game had not properly developed judging from the few matches he played and he was not patient for his time.

Those arguing in favour of Pogba said how did he become a world class immediately he joined Juventus.

Fast forward some years later, Pogba was brought back to United. He is still doing some unnecessary leg overs which slow United attacking play in the EPL. Same reason I said he was not ready in his first time here because his game at the time was misfit to our fast paced direct play.

Goal scoring is a talent. The way this Greenwood is developing, we might just be very lucky.

afrodoc2:
Is there any video evidence you can give us about them, like this one of Pogba saying he wants to leave?

Is this a new video?

Leyqute:
Bailey and Dalot are not playing basketball and dancing on Instagram.

People are different. Pogba sees himself as a celebrity and cannot shy away from the public.

Adisaowallla:
Hahaha

Elampiro...so you sef dey play PES??

Wetin Elruditor no go see for PEP's yansh?

Never played PES for once. I hear it from boys in the team I train with.

thorrvik55:
Is it the same Martial dat was over integral in the win vs City or another one??

Martial's problem ia that he gets more irrelevant with more playing time. If he just returned from injury, expect him to fly

Leyqute:
He got into goal scoring positions a lot today. His final balls are horrible.

Imagine. We have him as a starter.

But his team play and decision making is very good

Leyqute:
All of James’ efforts are tame. What’s wrong with that kid?

His goal scoring sense is low. He had a golden chance to stretch the goalkeeper with an R2, he just blasted directly at the keeper

Bissaka passes are making sense

Rash put that pass for Shaw.

patrickmuf:
Lingard is a fraud. He has been useless thus far in his role as the link between midfield and attack.

De Gea was also very soft for that goal.

It is his weakest point and it harms our overall defensive play. Romero would take that ball like it was a back pass.

Was that not a foul on DDG?

I don't like the way we threw Shaw into the starting line up.

Oasis007:


Better Squad than Man City according to Pep.

Pep wants more money to sign players. He is making a case for that.

eph12:
How does this gif look like a foul or anything close to Bernados foul on Rashford?

I was wondering o

patrickmuf:
Actually, the space Rashford had was because Walker was caught out of position most times as he was somewhere around the midfield rather than RB. You can re-watch the match and compare with how he sets up his team most times to see what I am talking about.

It is easier to block from midfield than to block as an attacking fullback.

Your tactics get error. You can't know 10% of what Guardiola knows.

patrickmuf:
Walker tucking into midfield is more of arrogance. In his first season, he tried it with Sagna and Clichy/Kolarov and it failed. One of the reason why Shaw could comfortably deal with Bernardo Silva was because we didn't see Walker bombing forward. If Walker maintained his position as RB, his runs forward would've served as a perfect distraction for Shaw when up against B. Silva...

So, yes it's more of arrogance rather than philosophy.

All these narrow point of view, na wao. You think if Walker bomb forward that he wouldn't leave some space for Rashford, Martial and co to explore. Our forwards are very fast.

patrickmuf:
Exactly, that man is just arrogant. Walker was playing as a midfielder when an inform Rashford was on the left. That's just disrespectful to Manchester United and arrogance on display.

Arrogant or following his philosophy?

eph12:
Pep is very stubborn. Everyone knows this team can hurt you if you give them space while remaining compact at the back. I didn't expect that from him at all. This loss may have just cost him the league

Luiz Van Gaal is stubborn
Mourinho is stubborn
Ole is stubbiorn

Now that Guadiola attacking football didnt favour him, he is stubborn. If he won, Guardiola is a role model, he always attack.



It is easier said than done.

eph12:
The first 35 minutes was absolute marvelous. The game plan was so evident. The game would have been over if only we were a little bit more clinical when taking shots. Most shots were just direct instead of choosing pockets.

At best, this is the kind of performance this present team can do. They can only exploit spaces left by daring opponents, they can't create their own space. Hopefully the next transfer window or so can take care of that.

I expect Ole to work on AWB to become better when attacking. If we had a striker that's always hovering around the box 18 and playing close to the opponent keeper when we're attacking, James will be having assists every match. He can be delivering those low crosses into the box

Corect observation on the shots. Also there was one Lingard shot from a tight angle, if only he raised his head, he would have just put it over the goalkeeper into pne of our player's head to nod it into an empty net .

These are the kind of awareness they need adopt. If it were Giggs, that would have been a free Assist. I believe however, that our players are getting used to playing with each other and gaining cohension. Someone like Fred is beginning to express himself with lots of confidence.

Pereira dey spoil counter.

Leyqute:
The difference is McTom. Period.

If Mcatom played against Aston Villa (instead of Pereira) we would’ve gotten a better result. And performance.

Young also did very well yestersay. His game reading and availability to prevent some dangerous moves came from experience.

maik99:
Wan Bissaka really frustrated me today..dude's so poor attacking-wise..he's got pace when diving into tackles and blocking attackers but seems to lose it when he's at the other end of the pitch

But he saved is with that last ditch tackle when time was 93.55 and Spurs about to put the ball into our box.

chidexxy007:
Where have this performance been?

We need a striker badly, with that first half performance, we would seen Spurs off.

Positive: McTominay returned. Young given enough rest for this game.

Negative: Pereira and Mata did not start.

The difference

weedtaker:
Replacing Ander Herrera as our midfield big game player quite well.

He raised his game from the previous match, only that we drew that one.

Possibly responding to Paul Scholes' criticism

ChristineC:
do you have a working link?

Yes, it was down for 20 minutes

Before my stream went off, McTominay na oga jor
