Shaw is not overlapping na

Expert17:
Abi Bruno read you guys comment last week and started joining the midfield??



This is the same way Bruno plays every time, you guys just noticed it.

That's not what your previous comments say

Sorry wrong thread

Martial goaal

Bruno looked around him even before the ball left Greenwood's foot. We need more awareness and aggressiveness

weedtaker:
I thought controlling Midfield was not his business

Some people just have coconut head

Not a bad game. I'll prefer these Everton guys don't have any reason to believe they can get anything out of this match. We need to score another early and hold the ball well

Expert17:
Fernandes controlling the midfield.

Pinging nice passes.

The irony

slimghost:
The greatest myth in football is that MCFred protect the back 4.
Decent game by the duo so far though.

Whatever you're seeing, it will be worse.

melodyogonna:
Counter attack na, u no dey see attempts?

With the way we played, we can't be compared to lfc that try to control the game

You're looking at these possessions and you're claiming we attacked City? Hmmm

Elxandre:
I remember telling people Sancho might not be much better than Greenwood and might be a waste of money.
Look what's happening!
I still don't believe a a right footer can be really better than a left footer at RW in the modern game.

I think a change in coach will correct most of the issues we're having now

Elxandre:
If we're not careful, Sancho, our supposed RW savior will join VDB on the bench. That's a two major signings.
Cos the way I see it, there's no way he could bench Greenwood.

That's why when transfers happen, I just wait to see them actually play in this team before I get excited. Especially in a team like ours that have foundational and spiritual problem

afrodoc2:
It’s not the first time you are confused.

e choke

afrodoc2:
McTominay does not understand passing lanes and angles, hence it usually looks like he is hiding from the ball. Bros will go and stand behind the opponent expecting his teammate to pass the ball THROUGH the opponent to him.

Your brother on the other hand will keep showing for the ball even when he is in a bad position and is covered by 3 opponents and especially knowing his touch can be iffy.

Overconfidence and underconfidence. 2 extremists.

If Fred shows up for the ball and he's being covered by 3 opponents, is that not a plus for the team? Can't the player pass to another player that's free because Fred has 3 players covering him? I'm confused here

adebayo201:
Three midfielders Smh...

Rodri, Guodogan and KDB is how many midfielders?

elampiro:
You are talking about McTominay that is just returning from injury? As soon as Pogba left, McTominay started playing like a world-class player last night. The problem with you is that you think every analysis is a fight. I am trying to reason why Pogba looked to be the one who held us back for 70 minutes and we were dominated. Is it that he runs less and giving his co-midfielder too much to do? He might be covering much ground, but at what speed?

There is no Pogba agenda, we are judging what he played. We already have Ronaldo who is going to run less, we cannot afford to have another player running so little.

McTom really needs to do better especially when it comes to showing up for the ball. Pogba left the match at 75th minutes and still had the same number of passes as McTom. McTom number was too low for a player that's supposed to bring the ball out of the defense. Unless it's the coach instruction to go long almost every time

elampiro:
We were completely outclassed. It was a lucky win. Undeserved

But what I see is that we have to focus on the way we build with the ball instead of focusing on magic from the front men. It was when we had many midfielders in the game that we took control of the game. We had three of them ending the game-Matic, McTominay, Fred.

Unfortunately its like Ole and his guys are blind to this. We need our players chasing the ball and closing spaces immediately the ball is lost. A solid DM won't solve this problem.

Something is seriously wrong with our coaching crew if they're not completely bothered about the way we play as a team. They just have to be bothered and having sleepless night

BARAJ92:
This is not the first game, Fred dey give delicious pass, Abeg I wan join Ur Fred FC. No be everything be about exquisite pass.

Mrviktor:
Na Cavani urgency bring that goal

LOL

So nobody is going to commend Fred for that cross? No wahala, we go again tomorrow

odizeey:
Your guy don come in o

Watin dem say make him come do na?

Can this guy grow balls and remove Ronaldo now?

olabode89:
Pogba just dey vibe, baba just dey live McT alone for midfield.

Pogba in that position will never work but people no wan gree. This has been obvious for a long time

These guys need to be stronger on the ball na. Why are they falling like this?

Finally

This olodo coach should remove Fred o

Fred and AWB whyyyyy?

Jodera:
Odiz.eey and Eph.12, una no go kee person with sarcastic banter abeg

Wetin be the thing wey I been read for past pages so, I don tear laff troway?

TrebleChamp:
Baba calm down na, message well received .

Na because of you o

patrickmuf:
Baba we have a good team...

This is not a balanced team if we're being fair. It's good but not balanced. Something has to give
