But... a draw is fine too.

We have no bench. These boys will soon get tired and it will be back to square one.

Ole can’t afford to bench anybody. Same thing happened last season.

lekkie073:
a team set up to play counter attacking football does not think highly of a high pressing midfield. The earlier you guys realize that the team is set up to soak pressure and then break away to offense, the better. The only fear is that we might likely find is harder to break teams that sit back all day.

Leyqute:


Shows you didn’t watch preseason. The default tactic isn’t to soak pressure and break away in counter attacks- that’s just how we got goals against Chelsea.

Did you see the game against Inter and the last game against Kristiansund? We possessed them, probing for spaces to create goals. The match against Tottenham was also even- they’re good with the ball at their feet so the pressing was with sense. We didn’t sit back against them either.

The tactics used in a match depends on the opponent. We’ve got food counter-attacking system but we improved on breaking park-the-bus teams in preseason.

I don’t know where you guys get your stories from.

Leyqute:


Agreed. And Lekkie was wrong to assume that the default setting of OGS is counter attack. We’ve only played Chelsea this season- too little data. Despite that, I don’t think counter-attacking is the default setting.

Considering the other thing you said, we don’t have many players who are veeery good at breaking down defenses. All of them are okay in this regard, but just a few of them have that vision and skill to create goals from within a pack of bodies.

Pogba and Martial can do this and I think Gomes, Chong and Greenwood too can flourish in this setting but you can’t always start them at the moment.

Lingard, Rashford and James are counter-attack addicts.

this was in August, the beginning of the season. What an elder see sitting down, children like Lana cannot see it if they climb they highest mountain.

Emaprince:
Una try. At least manure have been a giant killing team this season...and you have completed the job by beating city.

Lmao. Pele o, elderly fool.
I always thought you were daft. But you are not just daft. You are also stupíd.

Abeg leave me out of whatever midlife crisis is afflicting you!!

footiemaniac:
I thought he was the best on the pitch today. He did is primary job very well, which is to defend. He shut out Sterling.

Fkhalifa:
The star is in the attitude, massive energy and resiliency from the boys, running, closing down, sticking legs and bodies to everything coming their way...

Honourable mentions:
AWB...Strength and agility to stop Sterling (that's a MOTM job there)

Tominay..covers every ground
Fred...good with the ball
James....insane speed, very good attacking player
Rashford....Pressed from the front, massive energy.

lekkie073:
eeya sorry. You sit here all day discussing football that you have little knowledge about. I will advice that you channel energy to what you know.
Guardiola wannabe...

Lana1:
Behave

Chrisus:
Is Fred Brazilian now?

GloryIsaac:
Fred and Mctominay stepping up + Rashford being clinical (finally) is the major reason behind these victories.


Btw, Periera is still misbehaving, he could have easily made it 1-3 with the right positioning.

We should calm down abeg. Let's enjoy this win well but be weary.

Ole is good against top teams abi. There more mid table to lower table teams than top teams.

If we do well against all the top teams and mess up against mid and lower teams we will never win the league.

Top teams are inclined to want to attack because they are supposed to be top teams while other teams are quite unpredictable or pack the bus which it seems Ole hasn't really figured out how to break em down.

Hope we don't throw these wins away by doing the unthinkable against the next midtable team we meet.

Manchester is red today

afrodoc2:


Maybe Colombian. 2 good games can't erase 16 months of crap.

Lana1:

Stop it.

If he continues to play like he did in those last two games, maybe we wont have to be questioning his nationality again.

adebayo201:
We can't enjoy winning not for once. Haba??! Win, we go fight, lose oh, we go quarrel. Can't we just enjoy this moment in peace??
