Garnacho first priority is to shoot today. Is this by design from ETH or Garnacho has decided to be the savior. I hope that's the instruction from ETH

He gave a very detailed and firm assessment of what needed to be done to address the issues on the playing field but Erik Ten Hag came in and discarded it. He stuck with the same players that should have been moved on a year earlier, in order words, he wasted a full season.

I was never in support of the move to kick Rangnick out...If he was here in some management capacity, we'd have been better for it.
This thing should be very clear to everyone

Garnacho has gotten so worse. In fact everyone has. How can this team turn it around this season?

That structure is necessary, irrespective of who the manager is. They will aid a good manager, creating the best environment for him to work in. And if the manager is bad, they can easily see through his bullshhit.

This is unlike Arnold and co who are clueless about how to run a football club.
I agree with you.

ETH does not have an excuse anymore

Leyqute:
Doesn’t mean that a proper structure should not be put in place or that the Glazers should remain in charge.

Every other top club has these things in place but you want your club to remain backwards because you hate the manager.
It was easy for fans to hide behind "structure" and "Glazers" excuse when trying to explain the manager's role in the state of the team. Unfortunately for those fans, they don't have that shield anymore.

I have not said we don't need the structure and whether Glazers should have stayed or not. Those excuses don't exist anymore, now more people are asking the right questions. The coach is not a helpless minor. He is part of management

At least he has no excuses anymore.

That was the whole point of putting things in place above the manager. Now they can make the right decisions based on what they’re witnessing from inside the club.

I don't understand why this is hard for some Man U fans to see. ETH tactics is 100% flawed.
If you take ETH to the current Man city, before this season ends Man city will be playing like the current Man U.

Even if you have the wrong players, at least we should be seeing what you are trying to do.

Aside from Onana and the defenders passing the ball among themselves 300 times, and to make mouth, ETH has no idea of what he should do.
Just give them time. It's clear for majority of fans now. It will be clear for the rest soon

So what is wrong with United? Why has it been a graveyard where talented players and decent managers come to flop?

They are not perfect but they have a base level of speed and athletism that ours do not have.
I agree with you. And this is on the coach and his assistants to get them to that level of fitness

ETH system will make sure every player's flaw is displayed in HD. It is now looking like the players in other teams are perfect while the ones we have are disasters

We've scored 5 goals and conceded 8 goals in 6 games.

A negative goal difference just 6 games in.

Someone said it was because Martinez wasnt fit last season.
LMAO we thank God ETH wasn't sacked and Martinez is now fit. In fact we have added two new defenders which everyone agrees are an upgrade to what we had last season

I am not disputing the fact that there are tactical gaps that need to be closed by the manager. However, we still cannot dispute the fact that a midfield controller needs to be press-resistant..

We keep on talking about Mainoo's age while we deliberately ignore the fact that he is a senior player with the 3 Lions already. I am not sure he would be in the team if he was synonymous with getting dispossessed every now and then thereby gifting the opposition with Goal scoring opportunities. He cannot be praised for being more mature than his age, then when he makes mistakes that should be corrected to aid and fastrack his development, we remember he is only 19 years old.

Like I said earlier, his decision making in scenarios like that would determine wether he would be compared to the likes of Xavi, Scholes etc or wether na them Blessing Kaku or Christian Obodo calibre 5 years for now....
Please just rate him as Blessing Kaku already

First goal was a wrong pass
Second goal was Case bundled off the ball like a sack of sawdust, from behind
The third goal is the one that can be really called a close down from pressing
Slot can go on and on about a gameplan but that game was open until Casemiro decided to gift two whole goals.

Casemiro aside we were constantly in a 4 vs 2 when Liverpool won the ball higher up the pitch. We also had opportunities to and even did outnumber them like that a few times but did Bleep all with it
One wrong pass from Case and it was how many against how many?

His decision making in scenarios like that would determine to a reasonable extent, the heights he would attain in his career...

There would always be situations like that and as a controlling midfielder, being press resistant is an attribute that cannot be overemphasized.

What happened to "drawing a foul"?

Are we saying there was no "safe pass" available?
At 19 years old, in a rubbish team and midfield? You go need wake up o

See as the round Mainoo like theif wey dem wan do am jungle justice grin

I was one of those who felt Mainoo was at fault for the 3rd goal but after seeing that pix, omorr, I no blame am one bit. No even valid support near him at all.

Na only elite midfielder fit escape for that situation.
I will even say he is at fault, but that system is criminal and will always have punishable errors. Most teams are aware of this already. ETH has continued to play with a big hole in his midfield
