The only thing anybody wants to see is Ole getting sacked and jailed. He is way above his depths here

Nezzjnr:
Till now.

I don't know Ole's Tactics

Other coaches when they go up against some teams, they identify who to mark and what to avoid. For Ole, na freestyle

Leyqute:
Maguire is not fit and he’s trying to cover for him.

Has been happening since the Leicester game.

Then someone else should cover that position even if it means sacrificing an attacker and playing one more defender. This is one of the best teams they are playing against, not alanta

Nezzjnr:
I can remember when Fred sorry Eph12 was saying that the arrival of Ronaldo won't change anything...

LOL what we have seen since. Add Messi it still won't change anything. Add Ndidi, sell Fred, it still won't fvcking change anything. The coach is the problem here

kokanepyramid:
You signed players like Ronaldo and you want him to track back and defend.

Ronaldo is not the only attacker. He's not even on the wings

Playing against a team like LFC and our attackers are not working their socks off to get back and defend. DNA things

olabode89:
Luke Shaw and Maguire... lmao, two clowns.

No matter how bad these guys are, what I see here is down to the coach. If Shaw has to stay close to the CB, who is covering his position? Why is Ole not taking charge here?

Again Shaw tucked in and nobody on that side to defend. I think all the goals came in this way. 1,2,3,4 and someone said Klopp was not rubbing his palms watching us play?

When Scholes was talking midweek, people were angry. You can't expect the team to open like that against LFC and not get punished

olabode89:
Luke Shaw is always too close to Maguire, I just tire. Hopefully after we lose to Atalanta and Spurs dem go sack this clown.

Exactly what I posted just now. Is it a tactical decision from Ole or everyone is just doing what concern them?

Every time we see Shaw moving to stay beside Maguire and his side wide open. Is there a reason for this? Is someone else supposed to be there?

Leyqute:
I’m not even that concerned about the press. It’s the defence that is leaking goals that is more worrying. And Maguire is at the center of that.

And the stupid coach has no idea that this is the problem.

He has no idea, none at all. The kind of goals we concede are goals we should not even be seeing on the training ground

patrickmuf:
Ole no sabi...It was due to uncoordinated press simple...

Our press have been comical at best for some time now

Lana1:
Defending the United way

We have seen this too many times under this coach

nitrogen:
When someone is not good, there is nothing that can change over night. I noticed that the Liverpool’s goal was on the back of a useless ineffective pressing. AWB and I think Greenwood were trying to press just one player or so together. No be juju be that?

I'm not sure there's anything wrong with double marking a player though

slimghost:
Exactly! Convert one of them to a sitting DM! Fucking simple!!!!

We blame them for not covering the defenders but these guys bomb forward every time. Are they using sango to protect the defence when they go forward?

Why won't one of Tom or Fred just stay put in front of the defenders? What are they looking for in the attacking third against a pacy team like LFC?

What kind of defending is this?

liveLongNprospa:
*half a season

Which of the half?

liveLongNprospa:
Until it gets to Fred

You have a point

izzou:
[color=royalblue]I know we both have our differences, but God bless you for this statement[/color]

Lol please we don't have any differences o. We did banter some other day and na there e end

LS has regressed this season, no doubt about that. He was better last season, that's a fact

timbros:
Funny how stats show everybody start to 'comot hand'

Izzou you are not a good somebody

There are some stats there that are not interpreted properly but I don't have time for that anymore

seunpinky:
I agree with you to an extent, but I have a question for u at the bolded.. what is the work/usefulness of the double pivot (mcfred) used by OLE if they can't provide basic cover for a LB or RB?

Because
1. they don't function like the LFC midfielders. They're judged by their attacking output.
2. Even though Fred is played there, he is not a DM. He will have a couple of deficiencies functioning in that role. He only plays because he's one of the best for that role in the team currently. It doesn't mean he's one of the best in the world for that role

lekkie073:
that Sancho na wastepipe. I don't expect anything impressive from him because mkhi and Kagawa has taught me a lesson.

Not everything that looks good in yellow/black is good enough for red/white. If there will be an exception to the rule, it might be Haarland, not this English hyperbole

lol our current kind of football is not just for Sancho. We need to be really fast-paced with a lot of movements and options. We can't have that under Ole

BikeMan:
73 MILLION POUNDS PLAYER. CHAI!

The people benching him are worth more than that. You no know ball

handelex:
That's not really my point rather the right wing still not being put to effective use even after signing someone to address that issue.

That's the coach design. Greenwood got all those goals from that position. He only needs to work on his team play and he will be great

handelex:
Having Ronaldo and Cavani who are foxes in the box should be enough for Ole to know that creating width and putting crosses in the box will win us games, but no he prefers Greenwood who plays like him and Ronaldo are beefing on the pitch.

Ole won't set up his team to spam crosses. That's not his style. And why would he expect the forwards to spam crosses when they should be getting in the box and allow the midfielders and FB to spam the crosses

handelex:
Greenwood might regress if he keeps playing that RW, that's part of the reasons why Ole needs to go.

Which coach will replace CR7 and Cavani with Greenwood?

handelex:
Lol, first of all gut feeling.

Also Sancho's still finding his feet which when he does he'll be devastating...

Greenwood is not a winger, for me doesn't offer much in that RW, no width, no crosses, just cut and shoot.

Sancho I believe can address all that when he kicks on

After watching us play, you still think this coach wants a winger that does all these instead of getting in goal scoring positions?

handelex:
Sancho will displace Greenwood from the starting 11, it's just a matter of time.

With Ole in charge? I'm not sure

CrystalTiger:
E fit start am for FA cup..As for EPL or UCL, our front four all started last night..

FA doesn't start until Jan o
