This is painful.
Hmm I like the idea of controlling the game. But we simply don't have the players on the pitch to do that.I'd be Carrick, I would never have gotten worried once. Not even in preseason.
It does my head when our players take ages to pass the ball. They wait too long, they get closed down and therefore they have to pass it back. They've been doing this over and over again.
Bingo! Anyone who doesn't seem that the lynchpin to our problems is Fletcher is blind.Herrera has the technique to play that role, yes. Blind too. Unfortunately, Fletcher is not doing that today and it shows. Mata and Di Maria need to drop deep to get the ball which hinders our attack.
Surprised Scholes hasn't said it the way he constantly slates us nowadays (not that it's undeserved)God I hate football commentators. They can't be this blind. Just say it - Fletcher is shit and should be nowhere near this team. No need to beat around the bush
And finally we're there. The bottom.Moyes is a better manager
Captain Rooney.Rooney is fecking lost.
This is the major problem for me, it just underlines how fecking dense these two players are.Stop passing the fecking ball backwards Valencia & Young !!
+ 1. Every game so far this season we have had the lions share of possession. People for some fked up reason assume LVG is playing Fletcher/Cleverley/Herrera for their creative properties. We have 5 forwards who should be doing something.Anyone else get tired of the ' our attackers have been poor because of the midfield and defence' line?
They've been poor because they are playing poorly themselves. Great players make things happen themselves ADM isnt playing so static is he?
If you are only going to give Rooney fault for that when the pass shouldn't even have been made .... what can he do?Rooney loses it again. Fs
I could swear that same people who said that 4-4-2 under Fergie is zombie outdated formation now asking for same thing just so they can see a win.Still some players would be piss poor in passing,pass would go sideways well feck it,i rather suffer for next 3 years until they get that crap out of their veins and see 20 years of new domination.I swear it's got mostly nothing to do with a win but a better quality of football that's never coming.
