Even if what you say is true, he will not play against those "better defenders" all the time.

Besides, those teams with better defenders were hardly our problem last season. We mostly had difficulty breaking down mid table teams like Assnal notorious for parking the bus. cool

Arsenal are no longer midtable sir.

So many wrong decisions by OLE that will backfire. I do not think OLE planned to buy a midfielder. I think they were just window-shopping to see players they could buy if Pogba had left. That leaves a big question mark on OLE's managerial competence... does it mean he thinks a DM midfield of Matic/MacFred will be enough to win a league. In my opinion, i do not think the target is to win the league.

Another question I have is that are they waiting for the end of this season to release Matic, Mata and Jones. If Pogba and Cavani leaves, that will be five experienced players leaving. Surely that will affect the balance of the team even if good players are bought. In my opinion, that's also wrong. I would think some of those players would have been offloaded and replaced by now while others are left till the end of this current season in order to create a gradual but consistent change in personnel. The way I see it, we will never leave this "building phase" under OLE.

Lukaku had a very good game IMO. There is no way Pablo Mari didn't have nightmares last night. If not for some blind Bartimaeus Chelshit midfielders it would have been worse for the Assanal defence.
u forget its their first game playing with lukaku as focal man for dat matter....as time progresses,, they will properly blend and maximize lukakus strength

Ole knows what to do but won't do it just so he has an excuse at the end of the season.

Come next season, they will need to buy a striker and 2 midfielders. After which Ole will say it will take time for the news players to settle, in the process asking for more time...The board will duly oblige...

I don't see how a very good DM will cover up some of these deficiencies we have refused to address in the team. We can't continue to lose the ball in our half so easily and not expect to be punished.

yes I heard the commentor. Of course sancho is will be greater threat because he utilise the ball very well. But James is limited on that. So dallas can afford to allow James have the ball easily to sancho. But the position James is holding is a threat. It helps the team structure. But the personal(james) holding the position is not good enough. But greenwood normally goes inside the middle to congest the middle which allows the opposition defenders to stay narrow which makes man utd ability create chance limited. we might have win the europa if James is involved enough. Because most of our play is through the middle that day. Villareal defence stayed narrow

Let's agree to disagree
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by KingAlabi: 10:10am On Aug 23, 2021
If this stupid coach and management don't still know we need a DM, I don't know what else to say, Fred can't control a pass from a CB to save his life, matic is not faster than a snail on heat, tominay seems blind in daylight.

Omo, I just tire.

What is this EPL rule on contact sports, that was clearly a foul on Bruno.

If na like this, my black able brothers in the EPL will really enjoy themselves, as I told someone, if I was on the field for united, I will be red carded in the first half after Bruno's foul.

Lastly, we looked disorganized yesterday, where did Pogba, Bruno, greenwood or even martial play?.

Not having a good press resistant CDM is one of the main reasons why we lose the ball so easily in our half.

If our CDMs were agile, able to receive the ball on the half turn, and had decent range of passing Maguire and Lindelof wouldn't have to always run with the ball out of defense. They have to do this because whenever they pass the ball into Fred (who is not aware of danger) or McTom (who is too aware of danger) we lose the ball anyway.

And of course when a CB keeps running out of defense with the ball he is asking for trouble.

The manager himself appears to lack the ability to impact our build up play but that is no news. Most reasonable people already know he is limited. Part of his limitation however is not seeing the deficiency in that midfield.

Not exactly.

Bruno’s reaction after the goal gave him away. He needs to watch videos of Pep Guardiola’s Barca, especially Sergio Busquets.

When a player falls after contact, he should stay down and show pain. It will add weight to his argument that he has been fouled.

VAR officials are humans too, so it’s always at their discretion.

Bruno literally jumped up in rage, almost making it seem like nothing happened. I believe that made the VAR officials let the goal stand.

Worse is he even got carded for his reaction. That’s the officials indirectly telling him it was a dive, and effectively giving me 1 point on FPL lmao

The action led to a goal.

At that point, it’s not what he did that matters, rather it’s Bruno’s reaction.

How Bruno and the team reacts will influence if the goal gets awarded or not.

That’s why I referred to Pep’s Barca. The player fouled should stay down wriggling in ‘pain’, while his teammates surround the referee in protest.

The referee might initially think it’s not a foul, but the fouled player staying down will make him rethink.

Refs are always under pressure, especially in matches involving big teams like United. So their decisions can be influenced with the right approach.

Bruno just jumped up, effectively making it seem like he wasn’t fouled. And remember that if a player builds a reputation of diving, Refs usually take note.

It is like you didn't see what happened, Bruno stayed on the ground, our players for a second felt that the referee had awarded a foul, I too, but as play continued the ref seemed not to give a fuvk, hence why the goal took our players by surprise, it was after the goal Bruno rushed and barked at the refree, I expected VAR to have a look, but it seems VAR doesn't interfer with play that much this season.

That was a blantant foul, imagine awarding that goal in a final.

Fans sef go protest, jump enter field.
