Man Utd, a match thread

[Scotch]

I would have Lookman on for Youri. Move maddison centrally. 

 

Not sure what we will do defensively. L'il Wes on a yellow and still getting up to speed but Evans will prob need to come off at some point. 

[weller54]

Tielemans has been invisible... again!!

[RumbleFox]

I mean, I’m a nobody and have zero experience in football management at any level, in fact I can’t even play it at all, I’m all limb….. but…… I’d take off Tielemans, put KDH in his place, move Maddison centrally and put Lookman on. X

Iheanacho offers nothing going forward 

Gonna stick my neck out here and say I don't and never have rated Nacho that much.

 

Someone said on here ages ago that his brain is always half a second behind what is actually going on and it struggles to keep up. His foot fumble **** up in this game is not the first time his "skills" or lack of, have let him down, it happens too much and breaks some decent chances down. His first touch/control is atrocious.

 

 Years ago under Puel I just put it down to his confidence being drained out of him but he's just not sharp enough or a good enough player for a team that play some really fast, short, sharp passing. 

 

 Trouble is he has scored some worldies and some VERY important goals for us so I'm seriously perplexed and confounded by him. 

 

Hard hat on.

Rashford winner after a painful second half watch, calling it now

Sky will have a mini orgy if this happens, they've been talking about him for ages

Honestly thought the game was very boring. We looked okay in moments, but United are really below par today so worth taking that into consideration. It's probably flattering us how average they are. 

Has nothing to do with the 11 dudes in aqua(?) shirts in front of them?

I mean it's the unofficial Man Utd channel, what do you expect. 

 

Sky is to United what BT is to Liverpool.

Harvey Barnes dad bingo winners please.

Tielemans needs to come off.

Stick Daka on and let's go for it

I was debating who we could bring off to have daka and iheanacho as a 2, with madders in the 10.

 

Difficult to bring off Barnes but we should definitely be prioritising 2 up top over Barnes as our only real hope when vardys out.

 

This with madders dropping back but only a little bit. Between an 8 and 10 (but not a 9)

You're right. I spend half the time he is playing screaming "Get onside!"

Ref is doing my tits in so much that its probably better for my wellbeing to not watch. Them yellows are a disgrace 

Anyone'd think it's a ****ing bloodbath looking at the cards dished out!

[trabuch]

Different gravy when Maddison gets involved.

[foxes_rule1978]

Good defending from Maguire see I can say positive things, great move by us

Agree. Get Daka on.

If he has more than a second to react to the situation he fouls it up. Absolutely incredible on reflex finishes and positioning but doesn't have the brain for thinking about situations. 

[UniFox21]

Maddison is brilliant at those fake shots, the swinging of his arm really seems to get people

[Devohn]

Has to be red!

[Finnegan]

Maddison went in to that with so much force I'm not sure you'd ever get a red for McTominay even if he wasn't a United player at OT.

[Gav_LCFC14]

That makes contact with his leg, that's a leg snap. Ridiculous decision.

[foxes_rule1978]

That is a bloody red Ffs 

[Supergray22]

Jesus. How is that not a red!

[Vacamion]

 

If Fofana did that to Bruno Fernandes he'd be off straight red.

 

Awful, awful refereeing.
