Who also sold Sancho to us? Did we offend you before?

And the idiot will still carry microphone to be talking nonsense. Where are the people that sold this guy to nitrogen that went to recommend him to the board? Oya come and line up here please. I don't want to call any name o

Beorn:
Is Tominay injured? If not why did the Riff Raff start the tired legs Matic?

I think he's on suspension

Ragnick has to leave this club. He's been a disappointment.

We need control and you can't add more bodies to the midfield? You leave Matic there alone because Fred goes high every time to press. What is Cavani still doing in this game? What's wrong with this guy?

olabode89:
yeah, your opinion sounds like better judgment in comparison to professionals that have watched him multiple times in training.

These guys train? Mad o!!!

Is there anything you see in the way they play that gives you comfort that some hardcore training goes on at Carrington?

patrickmuf:
I think it was a reference to the formation change rather than the absence of Ronaldo that preempted the comment.

Oh I see

olabode89:
I can't remember where I read something about him not having the required energy level to play in the EPL. Hopefully we sell him in the summer.

That's some BS imo

GloryIsaac:
The boy needs to request for loan till Ten Haag ‘hopefully’ arrives.

I hope he doesn't. We're not that plenty in the midfield. I think he's the only cm we have on the bench atm

See Fred pressing up the pitch and nobody in sight. Bruno and Fred are the ones trying to do this pressing thing. We can't go anywhere with this

Somebody said Bruno will have a man of the match performance today. LMAO looks like with Ronaldo on the pitch Bruno can't score those goals he's known for

olabode89:
There is a reason Ole and now Riff Raff glued his ass to the bench

It's just so hard to believe

Very poor energy

Is VDB really worse than Fred?

Better performance today. Still a lot of work to be done

Good one

Our set pieces can't even beat the first player. Shior

patrickmuf:
Hopefully Bruno sticks to his role so we don't get overrun in the midfield...

If he's not in a hurry to find impossible passes and instead passes to someone less under pressure, he would have done his part to ease pressure on the team

I don't want to see just 2 players in that midfield please God

weedtaker:
The games against Norwich and Newcastle was the last straw for me, I don't know if I should blame the manager or the players. Cause wtf was those displays

We have Villa today and it feels like it's Villa's game to lose

weedtaker:
Tbh most of the teams in the league play till the last second, it just seems Manchester United play in a totally different league from the other teams.

Thank you o. Sometimes I wonder if it's because I'm very critical of my club. It's almost as if every other team play better and more energetic than the players we have here

elampiro:
Is Pogba now a Dundee United or Man City player? Or that Pogba is now a defender or a striker?

Why always McTominay and Fred who have earned their place with hard work? Will McTominay and Fred bench Modric, Yaya Toure, Alonso, etc?

What pains me about this thread is that people always hold some guys in the team as scapegoats. How is Fred able to play with Casemiro but unable to play with Pogba?

Now, when I was talking about coaching players, I am seeing a huge decline in football abilities of Martial, Rashford, Greenwood, etc. But their counterparts in Arsenal and Chelsea are on the rise in techniques. Here you are talking about McTominay and Fred who even appear to maintain their consistency based on their level.

LOL I don't even count Pogba as our player anymore.

TrebleChamp:
I need to visit that Baba that is doing it for McFred, United is not even looking at signing an midfielder(s) this window. I don't think the club will buy any in the summer sef, only God can help us....

Right from when Ole was here, almost everyone agreed we needed midfielders as a matter of urgency. Ole bought VDB and benched him. Aregbe is doing the same. Meanwhile, our midfield is still in a coma

elampiro:
Are you sure it is buying players that is the issue or finding a technically gifted coach to groom the players we have and are joining.

We have always spoken about the need for better midfielders on this board. There's nothing to groom in Matic/Fred/Tom.

We lack control and the midfield is very important to that. The current midfielders we have can never give us that control

Leyqute:
That’s the problem.

Some of our bench options are not even good enough for the bench.

We need to get it right, especially when it concerns player recruitment.

A serious team would have made at least one move this January. I don't see that happening

hensben:
Man U should sign Ndidi, he is very good.

Yeah he is. With another solid midfielder, that should be locked down

We need two midfielders before any other position. This should be a priority

Leyqute:
Agreed.

We need to replace a number of fringe players with either capable guys or exciting talents from the academy.

Matic, Mata, Martial should be let go. Don’t think they can rejig their careers here.

If we're being honest, a lot more than these should be leaving. But we also need players to put on the bench

patrickmuf:
That's another good option but we have just 3 CBs whom you can guarantee their fitness...Bailly and Jones are Doctors...

I hope Tuanzebe some how comes back a better player even though he's hardly played whilst out on loan.

Where is Mengi sef?

Well when they're all around, we can try the formation. Knowing this lazy players, it may still be frustrating to watch.

They can't hold on to the ball with quick passes, they can't sprint forward or backward to positions quickly, they can't win 50-50, they can't play without being selfish. This is just a disaster

patrickmuf:
That's why I'm favoring a shift to a diamond midfield. We can't persist with underperforming wingers.

If we had enough CB presently, I'll favor a 352 right now

patrickmuf:
We play Aston Villa away in the EPL come weekend. I am not confident at all heading into that game...Since Rashford is shitty, isn't it time we tried out a diamond midfield with two forwards?

With a diamond midfield, we can comfortably play Telles and Dalot as wing backs while McFred covers for them and VDB and Bruno slot into the midfield...One of VDB or Bruno will have the license to push up when we attack that way, we will have bodies forwards and still have enough protection for the defense when counter-attacked...

Rashford, Greenwood and Sancho should come in from the bench depending on the outcome of the game after the hour mark...

After watching us play, I'll say we need more bodies in the midfield with a couple of them able to join the attack and arrive in the box in timely fashion.

lol "Ole is building a very good team" but but we don't have players anymore. So what exactly was he building?

And una say this guy is a tactician? Until we concede before he changes something?
