It is you guys that give it attention that are to blame.

It finds fulfillment in being nothing but a nuisance and being involved in nothing constructive.
But that is its prerogative and if being nothing but a f.o.o.l online (and offline I am certain) makes it happy so be it.

Sanchez and Pogba are leading in through balls in the team, followed by Fred & Mata. Yet people said Fred is not creative.

Hazard, William, Mane, Kevin De Bruyne, Fred, Mata have same number of through balls in the league.

UNA NO KNOW BALL

For once, I agree with you on Fred, It was as if I was the only one that sees what Fred brings

Should we just accept that we will always be poor in the first half of games? It's a serious concern, Bournemouth would've had the game dead and buried if they took their chances earlier on.
Next weekend, we are up against City, we can't for any reason afford to start slow again.

May be Mourinho doesn't come with a plan anymore, he fixes things at half time.

This showing up at the second half started last season, we just didn’t notice it or we put it on ‘we only come alive when we go behind’. Whichever way it is, Mou and his boys needs to find a way to stop it. The first half is as important as the second half. Remember what happened at Etihad last season?

It’s really unbecoming.

When Herrera and Rashford came in yesterday, they forced a lot of errors from Bournemouth and chances for us.

He may not have a very good game but it was better than Young.

Those errors were forced when Sanchez was combining with Rashford. As soon as Sanchez was withdrawn, Rashford was directionless.

The choice of Shaw and Rashford in that MOTM award is ill thought.

Lol I don't want to even imagine this was the case but it seems so because we always do better in the second half, the first half is more like an assessment of the opposition...Against the big teams, we will be punished.

True, I hope we turn up for the full 90 mins in Turin and City as well.

Fact, Fred is always looking up for the pass but the poor movement of our attackers and team generally is stalling our play.

the defense was also better last term at least. I don't think these guys can play again without conceding.
The lingering exclusion of Eric Bailly has not been justified.

I am highly critical about our defenders but truth be told, any defense that keeps getting presssured with wave after wave of attack will definitely concede. Our first half this season has been nothing to write home about starting from the attack to the defense, even DDG is not left out sometimes.

No pressure whatsoever, no urgency, no commitment. I cringe anytime we just ball watch and stroll around during most first half. Then second half starts and you see a different team. If Mou is going to stay beyond this season, something has to change.

Young does not play inside, instead he tries to force vertically and cross. But cross to who?

Shaw has played balls inside this season. He has a goal and could have gotten another one today with his forceful run into the box

I really wish he scored that goal, all these b.s stories won't have come up (at least for the time being).

We've got Liverpool and Arsenal for that. grin

Soton have been fvcking up for years now. They are no't serious. They're used to selling their best players without replacing them. They'll relegate in a year or two if they don't change their attitude.

.

The problem is that none of the central defenders is consistent. So no one can justify the selection or non selection of any of them. Smalling started as best, but currently it is Lindelof. In the last match some analysts put question marks on both of them.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:32pm On Nov 04, 2018
The major problem with United is that the players cover very little ground in the first half. They recover lazily to park the bus when we lost possession, while building slowly when we have possession. The opposition very easily regroup before we build to their final third.

The trauma of many bad results and many early goals conceded makes us afraid going all out from the blast of the whistle. There is this attitude of 'let's avoid another shocking start'. We are gradually over coming it. With more positive results we should be starting better.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by slimghost(m): 6:38am On Nov 05, 2018
I don't have time for fruitless and dumb arguments but anybody that thinks Young is a better left back or LWB than Shaw should check into a mental home.
I will foot the bills.

I know every side I stay on, it is likely the general group quickly move to the opposite. grin

Usually, when I return after I had taken a new position on a player that is not settled yet, I meet people lining up and leaning against that position. I think may be they do it for the fun of it.

If I say Pereira is a write off, it is most likely when I return next, people would be lining up to say Pereira is what we need. And before you know it, the whole house will be praising Pereira. Even those who never had an opinion will begin to join the majority.

The tendency for the majority of fans here to agree to majority opinion and make it a consensus opinion of the thread is the reason Chelsea thread has over taken this one in traffic. Originality is killed here.

People writing from mental home are hoping others are brought to join them there to keep company. They are tired of isolation and even want to pay for people to join them. Terrible!!!

the world class that I saw in juventus but u couldn't see in your calabash.

So u see, sometimes ur views are not the truth.
A player can be good and does badly while a player can as well be bad but have occasional good games. So sometimes you only choose to pick on the good games of players you like while always pick on the bad side of players you hate.

Yes or true?
