ETH's sold this match with that substitution. How he views the game is questionable sometimes. Bruno should have stayed... the midfield collapsed right after the substitution. The person he brought in can never do the job

iamoyindamola:
Zirkee should have left the ball alone

Wasnt his fault

That was a lovely play there

afrodoc2:
Yes. That is what i suspect is going to happen. We need a new LB desperately. We should go into the season with the assumption that both Shaw and Malacia are not in the squad.

I believe Licha is a very good player and he's one of my favorite players. However, I don't see him as being a good LB, especially for the way we want to play. I hope I'm wrong and he actually do a good job there when called upon

We can now agree that it's Garnacho and Amad on the flanks... Rashford on the bench. Sancho must leave

Why did ETH remind Evans that it was a penalty shoot out lol....

Yes, the one-two game is working against City. It did last season and I'm sure it will this season

Links to Dumfries. surprised by that.

Absolutely surprising. However, I find it disturbing that many of our fans are still canvassing for AWB to be kept. It somehow confirms my notion that we (fans) are part of the problems we have in this club. On one hand, they want AWB who offers absolutely nothing going forward, while on the other hand, they complain that we are not scoring enough. Most top teams are now attacking even with their FBs.....watching AWB attack is an eyesore for me, and it never shows we are serious as a team. This Player united should stop...no player is bigger than the team!

afrodoc2:
Siddon look mode activated on this deal. If he comes we will support him, but I don’t think we should get him.

I hope the club is smart enough to only offer a loan deal with an option to buy. That way, we can assess him just as we did with Amrabat.

CapitalCee:
The drop off between Bruno and Mount is massive.
AWB de play nonsense as usual
Amad our best player (and he scored)
Collyer very impressive

It just seems like they (Mount and Bruno) don't play same position, yet they do.

My prayer is that a team buys AWB...I really don't like his play at all, regardless of the match being a pre-season match. He's also not the smartest chap.

I wish Maino didn't get that yellow card

afrodoc2:
Amrabat gives us a better structure in midfield because of the TYPE of midfielder he is. The problem is that he is a low-quality version of that type of midfielder. We need someone like him at CDM but with much better quality.

I agree with you 100%. Amrabat isn't good enough.

Is this not the same Ambrabat many of our supporters were criticizing ETH for not playing. He had two 'okay' performances and our people quickly jumped on that wagon. Some were already saying he must be bought permanently. Sometimes I think we, the fans, are part of the problems.

eph12:
Why bother practicing anything? City will penetrate us anyhow

It's a given bro.

eph12:
We have been chasing the game since kick off

We are practicing on how we are gonna play next week.

larride:
Please stop it. Dalot is average.

Well, he's being played out of position. All of them have been around average.. All

CrystalTiger:
McTom is ridiculously average

I agree my brother, but who isn't average in that team, except Maino, Garnacho and probably Dalot and Amad

Even the ones you are praising are still average... just that some are more average than others.

This Player FC must stop

Englishisamust:
U dey watch Madrid ball

Yes bro. They are not even that great today but still....

The way some teams play...it just feels like we (we know ourselves lol) dont understand what football is all about or we are not serious.

The way we keep losing possession is very depressing.

Morning guys, I'm trying to apply for my mom to visit. She came for two weeks in 2022 so it wouldn't be her first time. I understand there's e-visa option now.

May i know which is better between e-visa and going there physically (Sticker)?

Thanks guys

nitrogen:
There is no tactical battle anywhere. Na person wey get tactics dey battle with him opponent. This is vibes football.

Hahaha. I can't say you are wrong. It seems like there's a mismatch between him and his players...also, some of these things he's trying might work in Eredivisie but definitely not in EPL. That porous midfield of ours needs restructuring or a different approach, and I don't think he has a clue on how to solve the issue.

Jokerman:
Stop blaming players please.... The coach is the issue...

Make dem just sack the clown

He is definitely losing the tactical battle.

Everyone is talking about clear-out now and I ask myself if we are really going to do the 'open-heart surgery' or we just going to focus on certain easy targets.

It will be a very interesting summer.

We are definitely not good enough and this team also got lots of problems.

- players who are passed their prime.
- players who just don't care anymore.
- players who have never been good enough.
- Good and young players that still needs some experience.
- Manager's favorites

Then we have got a blockhead manager.

Only one player was absent today from last week's win (Rasmus) and everything went south, which shows how we have been winning. Nothing ever convincing. How come Brighton could sell couple of their players but the rest still play the normal way they play. How come we can not do that. Any tactic that relies on only 2 players of the 23+ players is definitely not a great tactic.

Why did Bruno play that ball??

Buhari is definitely not innocent and I'm Tinubu knows about it. However, I think it's all politics. Tinubu will definitely not call out Buhari, because he is going to need him for his 2nd term ambition in the nearest future. I might be wrong though.

Goal.... Na slow game we use kill them

In-game management is poor.... Doesn't have it

That was so inevitable..... Our manager had no response for that unfortunately

MRTA7:
This summer, Ineos should consider getting upgrades for Shaw, Bruno and Casemiro

We need at least two solid midfielders in the summer

Lindeloffffffff WTH
