🔴 André Onana requested to speak after the game…

“It’s my responsibility, because of me we didn’t win — and I have to learn from it”.

“I have a lot to prove, because to be honest my start in Man United is not so good”.

“It was me who let the team down”.
why are people liking this? grin is this PR going to stop him from leakinggrin?

Mount is not what we need rather Amrabat, is someone who will help out Case and occasionally free him to go forward and attack.
I no even trust that Amrabat will solve the problem.

Firstly, the team structure is defective. Secondly, Amrabat himself is not really blessed with pace from the little I have seen. Pace is what has been killing us in that midfield. If Casemiro does not somehow regain his form he will do to Amrabat what Eriksen is currently doing to him (Casemiro).

It’s not as if he started the game. He came on with 20 mins to go and then put on this lethargic irresponsible display.

Useless british players.
I saw that and refused not to comment before I swear for the ídiot!!

The ref is 34yrs old and had been running from opening whistle. McTominay is 26yrs and had just come on 10 minutes before that clip. The ref had no vested interest. McTominay had just lost the ball and should have been interested in preventing a goal. The referee actually increased the gap between himself and McTominay.

That is before we talk about the loose touch that turned a potential goal scoring opportunity for us into a goalscoring opportunity against us in seconds.

It's down to ETH to prioritize defensive cover for now. He has to ask them to sit at the base as DMs and free up the fullbacks to join the attack.

people wey no sabi watch ball
No doubt he's a good keeper, as for being great... I don't know🤣

But if you notice, on this thread the main issue isn't whether he's a good keeper or not. People said it was DDG costing us control of games and without him we'd play better and control games while forgetting that the midfield fix was priority.


Are we playing better? Are we controlling games? Is the midfield automatically fixed?

I have a lot of hope for Onana, and I'm starting to see what ETH wants to implement and when Amrabat and Mainoo comes back y'all will see it too. But until then, he go collect if he bleeps up from me and everyone.

Also, it seems our players are always in a hurry to release the ball...There are instances where our defenders will boot the ball even when we have the numerical advantage. You'd see 3 defenders unable to keep the ball when one forward player of the opponent charges at them...It is a big concern...

Again, I do not know why do not go after players who can dribble their way past a couple of opponents. Pace alone won't cut it as we have seen with Adama Traore and now, Rashford.
I'm glad you've seen it too chief🤣

This is why I will always prefer players with finesse over pace, pawa and pashun. At least you know that if you get the ball one on one against you opponents, your players can easily breeze past them and if you get tag teamed in a challenge by two players, there's always one player free.

If you don't have pace, there are other ways to overcome that. Work on your positioning and awareness so you don't get caught lacking, man marking, timing.e.t.c...

He shouldn't overlap if he has no pace.

You think Casemiro doesn't have positioning and defensive awareness? LOL
They are beating him even when he is in position and he can't recover. He has good positioning and defensive awareness, but he is not getting to the midfield runners on time as they are just driving past him with pace. Very good example was in the Wolves game. If he sits too deep because he is afraid of opposition pace it then opens a wide gap between him and the attacking players which the opposition can then utilize to punish us.
The potential solution like patrick said is for ETH to replace Eriksen with a more defensively sound player that will reduce the defensive perimeter that Casemiro has to cover. The other option is to replace both Casemiro and Eriksen.

Casemiro is a DM first so if it comes to a choice between exposing the defence or joining in the attack, which would you rather he picked?? Or would you like a CF that defended more than he attacked?

And true to your point, he needs a solid pairing to enable him keep playing as a DM with little to no attacking responsibility.

What i am saying is even when he sits back it is not making much difference. They are just driving beside him and past him into the box. Sitting back is actually allowing them to drive past him more easily as there is so much space between him and the attacking players, allowing the opposition players to generate top speed by the time they get to Casemiro. Go back and watch what Matteus Nunes and Matteus Cunha did to him.

It is either Eriksen needs to be dropped or if that alone does not work both Casemiro and Eriksen need to be dropped. I am tired of seeing Eriksen lose 50/50 tackles and Casemiro's premature sliding tackles.

Bruv i am not happy with you at all. I have been expecting that you would have signed for Chelsea for big bucks by now. Word on the street is that all it takes for Todd Boehly to sign someone now is for him to be black and have dada hairstyle. innit?

Wonderful thesis.

You should submit it to Netflix as the script for the next big Nollywood series.

Odunlade can play ETH prioritising defensive cover.

I'm too old and too skillful. Boehly only signs the young and useless like Nicolas Jackson.

The old and useless, he sells to american magas...like Havertz...and more importantly Mount. embarassed

But with the way bayern played today, Liverpool or even Brighton fit go toe to toe with them.

Age is nothing but a number to Toad Bowleg. All he wants to know is 1) Are you black 2) Do you have dada.
Luckily enough you already live locally so no need transport fee, na just transfer fee.

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by OkpaNsukkaisBae(m): 7:54am On Sep 21, 2023
manure can actually go with a 4man midfield for defensive solidity.. no be say una get worldclass creative wingers.


Erikson no be am. Dude can't mark, can't run, awareness is zero.. Not fit for any high intensity game. Onana try yesterday. Rashford shld combine more with una striker. Martinez tends to be unnecessarily aggressive.
