maik99:Hehe, so you think the players don’t give their all every game? They do, it’s just difficult if it’s a new system, it will take time and most will never get there and will need to be discarded because they don’t suit the style. |

We are playing Sou next in the league, hopefully we can beat them. These guys are 20th FFS. |

nitrogen:Conte had players who showed up and stayed consistent |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 8:58pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
eph12:The players play like they have not trained in a long time. Yes, there are misplaced passes once in a while, but that’s normal, every team does it. Go check the likes of Real Madrid and Liverpool. Players are humans. Onana is clearly not good enough. No one should dispute that. The set piece issues are on the set piece manager. We were not conceding those type of goals pre Amorim. |

nitrogen:We should be winning these kinda games comfortably - 2:0 up at half time should be the target.... |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 9:02pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
Lana1:Lol. They decided not to show up for previous managers, then they showed up for Conte, and then after three years sent him packing. Wow. |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 9:04pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
nitrogen:Funny thing is Amorim recently said that he has not trained the team yet. How does he expect the players to understand what he’s trying to implement sef? Wahala. |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 9:04pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
nitrogen:What are the things you see that makes you think the players have not trained in a long time? |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 9:05pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
eph12:Amorim mentioned it himself na. And we all see it in the results. Lol. Abeg leave me. |

Who this rat face dey ask. Captain they ask foolish question.

| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Leyqute(m): 9:20pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
adisaaowala:Could you elaborate? These same players had a terrible season under ETH last season but turned up on the last day to beat City and win the FA cup. Are you sure that’s not the same thing happening under Amorim? |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Leyqute(m): 9:21pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
nitrogen:They actually don’t. Missing 5 yard passes and failing to track an opposition is nowhere near giving your all. |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 9:23pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
Okay, so the team trained consistently this week and we played well against Liverpool. Amorim downplayed it though, but it seems the training helped. Maybe Amorim has not had much time to get the players to understand the system or he is not a fan of football training. https://utddistrict.co.uk/ruben-amorim-man-utd-training-three-things/03/01/2025/ |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Leyqute(m): 9:23pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
airmark:Still better than Jackson. He had one decent chance today. Jackson gets like 5 each game week and squanders them all. Goan warm eba |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 9:24pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
Leyqute:Lol, that sounds unfair. Especially if it’s a new system for them and the manager has not had the chance for trainings. |

| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 9:29pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
nitrogen:That is not what Amorim said. Or maybe he has finally trained them and that's why they were able to get a result against LFC? I want to believe you're not trolling and very serious |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 9:31pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
adisaaowala: ![]() ......I have full confidence in Amorim to get it right but not sure the players are ready to maintaining consistency yet. Don't be too confident these lads gonna play well as they did today, we lost at OT already to even weak club(s). |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 9:31pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
eph12:That’s what he said. Seriously. He downplayed it though, but I think the training helped. The score would have been different tbh. Could also be that the tactic worked well against them. https://utddistrict.co.uk/ruben-amorim-man-utd-training-three-things/03/01/2025/ |

odizeey:Is 25-0 possible because idiotic pundits who ars paid money to analyse football on media predicted this ridiculous and flamboyant scoreline with zero respect to a footballclub that has won 20 Premierleague titles. Is such a prediction reasonable? Is such a prediction disrespectful or not? It is a pity that Ten Hag lowered a lot of bars for Manchester United as a football club and an institution. |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by AirBere: 9:41pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
Goosethetruth:You can't really blame them and no need to be annoyed. Your current form and the fact that they scored more in the past made the prediction feasible. I felt they won't win and predicted United win or draw before the game even started and posted it here. 25:0 is impossible but 5:0 was a bold yet feasible prediction.

Goosethetruth:Who predicted 25-0? |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Goosethetruth(m): 9:56pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
odizeey:Check the Internet. It was on some stupid websites before the match started. Very disrespectful in my opinion. Even if United are at the wrong part of the league table,their pedigree and reputation preceeds them. No matter how poor they are,a 20 time premier league winner should be respected at all times. |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Lana1(m): 9:58pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
nitrogen:And you think showing up is what these ones have been doing? They didn't show up in ten Hag's donut midfield. They haven't played well in Amorim's 3-4-3 but but but 4-4-2 is all that is needed to bring out the best in them before they can beat Bournemouth |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 9:59pm On Jan 05, 2025 |
Lana1:Haha, but they showed up against Liverpool and City, but not against Bou. I hear you. |

Leyqute:If a team is consistent vs lower teams but falters against the big boys everytime, it wouldn't be out of place to exclusively label it a "quality" issue and say "ah - na there their talent reach". However, it seems like the opposite is the case under Amorim. I think the manager needs to sit down and re-assess the team's approach to our games vs lower teams - the Smash and grab approach that works vs Top sides wouldn't necessarily yeild much against the likes of Brighton etc and i think that's the point Nitrogen is trying to make..not necessarily about formation. Our last 3 games vs Bournmouth, Wolves and Newcastle - we literally failed to create clear cut chances, despite playing 2 of those games at OT. The game vs Newcastle ....we saw the effect when Mainoo came in for Orobosa - even though it didn't result in goals, we saw some stability and improvement in ball possession and retention.. We want to see similar changes in tempo and momentum w.r.t the glaring problem of struggling to create chances vs Minnows.....especially at OT. It doesn't even always have to be facilitated by a change in personnel or formation - asking player X to drift in more or drop deeper etc while player Y pushes further to yeild visible, glaring positive effects...stuffs like that! |

AirBere:I don't know when you started watching football but losing 7-0 to your greatest rival is a sackable offence. Many managers have been sacked for less scandalous scorelines. The owners(Glazers) of Manchester United made a grave and dangerous mistake In allowing Eric Ten Hag to continue as manager after this ridiculous and scandalous result. |
