He has played about 45 mins. Still too early to judge.
Not trying to judge, just wondering if this current system will allow him thrive

Yes i get you. By that i meant it is still too early to assess.

I believe he will work well with Bruno, Pogba, Greenwood and Cavani. Even AWB will look better as their understanding improves. He is a willing passer and AWB is a willing runner. It might not be Sancho/Hakimi but the right side will definitely improve.

Our problem is in the 2 holding midfield roles. I take no pleasure in saying neither McTominay nor your man are good enough. We move the ball through midfield like we are rolling a boulder up a hill. The sensible move would be to get a proper CDM and/or give VDB a shot but the man in charge has blinders on.

Good thing he secured us the point though, after Maguire’s brain fart.

Although Southampton defended deep unlike them, but we need to take points from this small teams now before we clash with Leicester, man city, Chelsea, Tottenham, Liverpool.

Seems arsenal is currently running giveaway, if them play us now, arteta dicckkk go rise anyhow.

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Trevor012(m): 2:47pm On Aug 23, 2021
I see we are going to ignore the stupidity of Bruno yesterday in making us concede that first goal. If it was Pogboom, some people will be writing 2 pages blaming Pogboom. We dey here cheesy cheesy

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 was not a foul please Bruno was just senseless. He caught bruno asleep and body checked him. never a foul. Even the United players knew Bruno messed up . Had the roles been reversed and we had a disallowed goal because that was called as a foul on a Southampton player you will be screaming.

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.
Well, there’s not much we can do at this point again, so can’t dwell on it.

The team should be more aggressive, especially considering how contact rules are becoming more lenient.

And that single decision isn’t a valid excuse for the draw. United gave that match away.

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...
It's just a shame really

I'll wait and see what Sancho offers then because those two holding midfield roles are not changing anytime soon

So let's hear your take. Who was at fault for the goal we conceded yesterday?
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 3:11pm On Aug 23, 2021
A DM will likely be gotten before the window closes, probably deadline day. That’s United’s MO.

You didn't attribute the blame to anybody in your previous post. You only talked about the players reaction. Now answer boldly, who was at fault for the goal we conceded yesterday?
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by LostMyZeal(m): 3:23pm On Aug 23, 2021
Just learnt that some Arsenal fans confronted Arteta and asked him to resign

Abeg, who will confront this stupid OLE for us
Man's so daft that I've lost every zeal to criticize him this season because the situation feels like a helpless one

We're in same WhatsApp group with Arsenal oh

Oh No! That ain't true. Arteta's got a fvckin trophy.

Isn't it a wonder that we are getting to a level where we'll turn winning ordinary FA Cup into a prayer point cheesy cheesy cheesy

God is indeed wonderful

United didn't win the game because we played with 10 men for majority of it. In fact we played with 7 men in the first half, and 10 up till the point Martial left the pitch.
I'm still not sure why we purchase players and give them bench roles.

Must every goal be someone’s fault?

Southampton fouled a player, Ref chose to let play go on, they scored. Why try to pin it on anybody?

True. Ole’s the reason we didn’t win that match. It didn’t even have to go to extra time.

Surprisingly, Villarreal even played better against Chelsea, compared to the United game. I expected Tuchel to give them the Arsenal treatment grin

The type of passes I saw yesterday, let’s just hope it doesn’t happen again.

Never said it was a valid excuse, no matter how you look at it, it affected our game.
