So Spurs lost at home to a team that Teemu Pukki had for lunch last week....

Lamela
Son
Moura
Kane
Eriksen
Lo Celso

Couldn't do anything about it despite having one of the best TActiCaL coaches in the world....

And I had Kane in my FPL thinking he'll continue from where Pukki stopped. Smh


Anyway, it doesn't matter though, i'm more bothered about us not having good set-piece takers. The team had two God-given freekicks to tear Palace net and still binned it.
Got a penalty and binned it too.
Corners are trial and error, always looking for Maguire to head the ball.

Then a No10.... this should have been Dybala's position but the boy doesn't want to leave Ronaldo, and i'm 90% sure that Bruno Fernandes will do better than what that beans cooker is doing, starting him is almost the same as playing with a red card.

Gomes needs to start against Southampton, can't have 27yr olds WiTh poTeNtiAL hindering others progress.

And Rashford needs to step up.. all these giving advice to younger players is trash.

David De Gea can no longer be considered the best in the world again regardless of how he performs next week or even the week after that till the end of the season. He flops when you least expect it. I hope he rediscovers himself.

But he can press na

Una the complain about set piece when we no even sabi throw ball.

we shouldn't have signed AWB, considering the style ole says he wants to play, dalot should have been giving a chance or better still sign a proven attacking RB. and smalling should be the one paired with slab head.
I said it at the start of the season when peeps here were busy creaming their pants bcuz of lindelof and slab head [ two ball playing CB's they say ]

Smalling and maguire will compliment each other very well.

When I saw people putting Lindelof and maguire as their first choice pair, na dia i know say many people here no sabi ball.

Lindelof is our worst CB alongside Baily. lindelof is not fast and terrible in the air,

as in, if you no fast and no good for air wetin come make you defender??

Fred should be in the team

and finally if we don't drop de gea, then we are not even serious.

James needs to improve his crossing, it's below par.

Agreed. But please mention 3 good crossers in the team bar Pogba.

Just look at Tottenham, dis is de reason why I don't want poch here, him and ole are quite similar in their style of play.

If we are sacking ole, it should be for a person that shares same football and tactical ideology with pep.

I no want all dis wannabe self proclaimed attacking managers wey dia style na only counter attack.

He's the only one who's style of play is mainly to cross from the byline, which is why i called him a prime Valencia some days back.

Martial doesn't cross, Same with Rashford who's more about running and cutting in/shooting from range. Even Shaw cuts in, AWB too....

I'm just saying that since run and cross is his preferred style of play, he should improve on it because it's below par.

And it seems Pereira is our best set-piece taker, but he's not in the first team.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by dubylhover(m): 8:41pm On Aug 25, 2019
Poch lost the game with his starting lineup,imagine dropping ericksen against a team that would sit back and defend..

Lamela did his best,but he rarely positioned himself in the hole behind the first line of defense,that's where brilliance is,spurs also have bang shiity midfield..is there any diff BTW winks and tonimay? The intensity of their passing was too slow...mehn God bless guardiola,seems to be the only gaffer who really understands modern day football,well he is the architect of modern day football...

So as confirmed,its going to be a 2 horse race BTW pool and city with city lifting the title again...

I honestly have no complaints about our own club because honestly I didn't expect anything other from what we are seeing now..

It's as if they don't practice it in training. Even the long range freekicks are usually placed for Maguire, and because he stays at the extreme edge, the free kick taker usually overplays it to goalkick.

Yesterday's freekicks made me remember Cristiano Ronaldo, times when giving United a free kick was like giving the team a free ticket to goal.
Each time we are awarded a set piece, I look to the stands where the ball will prolly end up.

Pereira should be starting ahead of lingard for his set piece ability alone.

It will be useless to cross in the team because we lack target men. I doubt if they train using cross and nod

Martial occasionally tries to play as a target man, but there are things that just can't happen, he's better as an Inside Forward (Thanks to FM 11).

They need to train set-pieces and crossing from open play, because it's very poor and that's James style of play.

One Sarri comes to mind. He ticks all the boxes for u guys. He definitely is no wannabe..

His football and tactical ideology is same with Pep's (As long as u keep possession of the ball, ur opponent can't win).

His style of play is referred to as the vertical tiki taka..
In Italy, his pattern is known as sarriball.

I don't even think they practice all this coz if they do we should see reports on match days, so what dafuq do we do in training.

100%...His deliveries either from a set piece or cross when he goes out wide is an advantage for us.

It's the quality of the cross and movement of the striker and not necessarily height. Most teams now vary their crosses, low/high cross...

City put in a lot of crosses even when Aguero and Jesus are not the biggest CFs you'd find but the quality of deliveries from KDB, Mendy (if fit), Walker and the rest is what sets them apart.

City players have the quality to be unpredictable, you don't know if it will be a high cross, low cross or no cross at all. We don't have that quality of players here, we can't demand that from them. We are just giving ourselves headache wishing our team plays like that. I think the coach is trying to play short quick passes until a player is put through on goal but the quality of the final passes is still a work in progress
