2017 Pre Season | Sampdoria vs Manchester United

[kiristao]

Can't watch the game, how are Perreira and the Pog doing?

Pereira has done well.. Pogba not so much!

 

[Paxi]

its shocking to think that this is his first game for us, he looks very comfortable

He'll be a cracking signing I can feel it!

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Who's the fanboi that's co-commentating on MUTV? (Not Paddy Crerand). So far his quips include:

"Hit it"
"Switch it"
"Go on then!"
"Shoot"
"Offside"

Feels like I'm watching with someone with Footballing Tourettes. Kinda annoying.

David May.

 

[el3mel]

We're not very spectacular but I like what I see. We're starting to look more balanced on the field than last season. We're turning gradually to a normal Jose team, which what I like.

 

[Nogbadthebad]

Have to say, matic is making a difference here, pogba is noticeably more involved and further forward. We look much more solid through the middle.

 

[mu4c_20le]

Pereira has kept things simple, bit like Matic. Seems like he's trying hard not to overdo things.

 

[#07]

Is it just me or Matić has been good.

Impossible. The FM legends tell me he's a Chelsea reject with no resale value.

11 players of ours on the pitch, 11 different nationalities.

 

[Classical Mechanic]

Imagine if that had gone in the net.

Might have been worth it for the lolz.

 

[prateik]

Ooh. Naughty from Darmian.

 

[whatwha]

When was the last time we fielded so many left footers?

At some point under LVG I think we had 6 left footed players on the pitch. He was all about the *balance*.

 

[R'hllor]

Is it just me or Matić has been good.

Yea good at being shit.

 

[Santoryo]

Pereira has done well.. Pogba not so much!

I'm getting conflicting feedbacks. Some says Perreira is poor than some disagree. So which is it?

 

[pseudo_canadian]

Impossible. The FM legends tell me he's a Chelsea reject with no resale value.

AND he's 29!!!

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Might have been worth it for the lolz.

 

[ivaldo]

Is it just me or Matić has been good.

Just you. No one else in the whole world but you.

 

[witchtrials]

When was the last time we fielded so many left footers?

Maybe we can add this to our average height and highest muscle mass awards.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

I'm getting conflicting feedbacks. Some says Perreira is poor than some disagree. So which is it?

Not stood out particularly. Other people are playing better. Might not be a bad thing.

 

[Paxi]

Did anyone hear David May whispering FAR POST!!!

 

[Adzzz]

11 players of ours on the pitch, 11 different nationalities.

(The) United...nations?

 

[prath92]

When was the last time we fielded so many left footers?

we have matic blind and lukaku? we once started rojo blind mata rvp

 

[roonster09]

Matic is like a ball magnet, he gets the ball is most duels.

 

[Ballache]

Matic looks like he's been here for years

 

[Frank Grimes]

David May is like my oul man watching United, sans the stream of abuse.

 

[BarstoolProphet]

Pogba and Pereira been quite poor, Matic growing into this game. Total control. Hrigurghk Micky and fullbacks been our best.

 

[Tom Van Persie]

Did anyone hear David May whispering FAR POST!!!

Yeah He's so bad at this.

 

[Neil67]

Season ticket holder and I can't watch one pre season game free!

 

[GifLord]

@GifLord have you got a clip of what blind did, I missed it, cheers.

Blind feck up

 

[ivaldo]

We are so dangerous from crosses.

 

[Kostur]

I'm getting conflicting feedbacks. Some says Perreira is poor than some disagree. So which is it?

Pereira has done nothing worth noting really, positive or negative.

 

[Catt]

I see Mourinho is dressed in his barbecuedress.

 

[bosnian_red]

Starting games allows one to play with stronger team especially as the preseason go on(Pogba is mostly involved in the first half of games) and it also tells which players are starting to get the nod from the manager.

Notice how all senior players have had more than a single start and only academyou players didn't start more than 1 game along with Martial.

Well yeah, but I mean for the first 2 games. Think Rashford started both and Martial played the second halves, and there really wasn't a clear quality difference in the 2 halves. Plus Herrera only had the 2 starts. Wouldn't read all that much into it. Obviously to start with he isn't a starting 11 player and has to work his way into the starting 11, but minutes wise he's obviously had way more then the majority of youngsters and a pretty normal amount.

 

[Ramshock]

It's the backpass rule.

yes I knew that ty

 

[Nick7]

Why? Why is punishment for deliberately committing an infringement to stop a certain goal stupid?

Because a keepers job is to use their hands. If you started giving red cards for that it would be insanely stupid.

You also can't give cards for indirect free kicks. Would have to make it a penalty which is really really harsh.

 

[Anustart89]

That slip

 

[Crackers]

Is it just me or Matić has been good.

Nah, out of millions of fans watching now, you're the only one.

 

[ravi2]

He'll be a cracking signing I can feel it!

He looks like exactly what weve been missing in the centre of the park for quite some time...finally a proper DM!

 

[Dante]

Matic and Lukaku have been brilliant. They're going to turn us into title challengers.
