It's just one of the styles. I've seen them try using triangle more in the wings, but their agility and close control is not up to that level. Only Sancho has that among all our forward players.

They did it against Galatasaray too, but for some reason they were impatient and forced the ball forward too soon. If you noticed today, there was little to no forced balls. And I think this is also due to the sub of Casemiro, he's been the one forcing halls since the beginning of the season.

That's one thing I hate about Casemiro. ball wey u suppose cool down pass , you go dey force aam...

princeabdul:
Rashford has earned those minutes and trust rest sir.

This is why Pep is knocking everybody's head. No time for stupid emotions

main24:


Funny, I didn't watch 1st half but Onana was great for me 2nd half.

And Maguire too. ETH should please always play Maguire over Lindalof

Lindelof wey Don get injury

I'm shocked on what exactly is casemiro's role now, dude was use as the 8 in the double pivot and he couldn't pass sh*t, I said if we are going to win this game casemiro needs to off, somehow the coach heard me

He was the main reason we couldn't control the game

kozmicity:


I'm not even expecting Europe😂 but I think they should chase it because who knows, we might finish 5th or 6th.

But the playing style is the thing I want the most and I'm ready to sacrifice Europe to see it happen. And only then would we be able to truly understand why ETH buys the way he does... We might even understand how mount fits in😂

Top 6 is still achievable. Abi who wants to displace us from top 6? Brighton or Aston villa?

eph12:

They should give him a new contract then. Reduce his wages

👍

Oh, na Casemiro now?

kozmicity:


McTominay has never been good there, Casemiro... I think the thrill gotten from being in the scoresheet last season multiple times has gotten to him.

I dont even know if we can define what role or position McTominay played today. It's the same role he plays for Scotland. As long as it does not involve tracking back or chasing opposition players down and playing more as a forward, you will see McTominay turn up

kozmicity:


Simple, pass more. Try to find his teammates.

Pass to who? What kind of passes? The type Trevor's grandma can do? In that position you should be dangerous. Anybody can play there and give simple passes

Lindalof should take that time off.

Bold move from ETH to have subbed Case. let's hope Case comes back in good form.

delkuf:
but it means rashford should start next game abi.

I can't help you bro 🤣

delkuf:

Apparently Rashford has earned his place in the team. Only God knows when he earned it. No one has earned his place in the team more than DDG in the last 10 years but that didn't stop a change from happening. But it's Rashford we draw the line.

Lana1:
McTominay and Casemiro have showed very little interest in doing their primary jobs in midfield this season. They just want to get into the box and score.

If our attackers are doing their jobs, I don't think Casemiro will be trying to get into the box to be at the end of crosses except it's a set piece

akwesenana:
Oh, na Casemiro now?

Nobody is trying to blame casemiro, I saw what he can do In this ETH system against Palace In the carabao cup, but he keeps leaving his role while going higher to score, with the type of defence we have, he should drop down and contribute to the game flow

Hw goes long with his passing and we also have to go long due to him vacating his position most time

Amrabat today sat in the hole, didn't do much creativity from there, but he kept the game moving, I saw some instances he could have released rasmus on a fast break which he hesitated but he did the basics right

At least ETH is starting to see the light by subbing off Rashford and Casemiro. 3rd win this season without any meaningful contribution from Black Ronaldo. Very soon he'll be riding that bench permanently. Useless guy!

Lana1:
Maguire has honestly done well recently. ETH needs to give himself brain and start benching some people. Onana, Mount, Rashford, Casemiro, Bruno, Lindelof should not all be starting every game

lindalof was one of our best player today

Bet a lot of the ones here were crying at full time. You all know yourselves😂.

Imagine comparing Ten Hag to AVB or is it the one that was counting this game as a loss when the first half wasn't even done. Y'all don't know just few words can expose your thinking. You'll come here and pretend like you're happy that United won. Meanwhile you feel like you just caught your wife being heavily piped down.

At least we go rest from agenda this week☺️.

I no really blame am. Last season as na counter carry us, he fit day mana so e go be. No go shock say he practice am for pre season.😂

eph12:

That's why i'm hoping partnering him up with Amrabat works out. At least that one will give him better cover to go forward than Eriksen or McTominay

eph12:

Chelsea, West Ham or Newcastle. Aston villa too... Funny enough, I believe this Brighton own na initial gra gra😁 Dem no go finish above Nottingham Forest.

If you insist!

Damn, I could not resist it. I must Watch Utd ni shaaa

I don't have shares in them.

You guys think it is easy to stay up until 4am to watch your club play rubbish and then you have to wake up in the morning with pounding headache to go look for your own daily bread?
If i have to stay up all night i would prefer to watch Netflix and relax rather than watch otondos lose match after match.

And it can't work since everyone now tracks back. I don't know who turned him into a DM, day person no try for am. He's lost about 2 years of progress because of that.

eph12:

Very true, but no be we dey complain say he too stingy?

He's following instructions at least, when the time comes you will enjoy him. Look at this like his last stage of improvement.

Yeah, I did not think about the time zone thing. I would never wake up at midnight to watch this Utd side.

TheLequte:


Wouldn't advise that. He's starting to understand this style and play better with his teammates. Rashford starts but Garnacho must get minutes too.

Benching Rashford after today will only harm his confidence more. It's a risky move especially when we're not sure if AG17 is capable to start.

Rashy 60 -70 mins. Garnacho 20-30 mins is okay.

Hurt his confidence?

Shey na him papa dey sponsor the club?

Rashford was actually decent today. He did what they've all been crying for. Some are just looking for a reason to rant after this victory. It's an addiction for some now.

Yes this should work so Casemiro is free to get into the opponents box. But we need a ball carrier and passer in that position and Casemiro isn't so we will still suffer.

kozmicity:

Chelsea normally should be part of the top 6. I think Newcastle can replace one of us in the top 6. They're the threat

kozmicity:



But😂😂 he did not assist, wetin dem dey use created chances do? Na yeye stat be that.

Na big chances

Enter McTom or Hannibal.

main24:


If Garnacho starts and can't perform again, it will really hurt his confidence this time around.
Playing him from the bench is a better way to grow his confidence.

Anyone who cannot build a strong mentality is not needed in this great club.

LET THEIR confidence DESTROY kpatakpata

kozmicity:

Let him get into the box and see if he would pass those passes. No be outside the 18 he dey pass which is normal? Will he pass the ball instead of shooting if there are other players better placed?
