We create nothing. Zero urgency combined with individual error. Poor football throughout, devoid of basics like passing with composure. Not even a fight from 90% of them. Deserved loss.
I believe that's both plan A and B.Pathetic. We don’t look like league winners. What annoys me most isn’t the personal errors that led to Huddersfields two goals, but the lack of effort to turn it around. Why is the plan B to hoof the ball? It has been like that ever since Fergie left. We don’t create anything while in hoof-mode, and we haven’t done that for the past 4 years either. It’s just absolutely pathetic. City can have their title, we don’t deserve it.
I agree but we've been pretty shit for three games now and it's getting a bit hard to take. tumescent football all round, which isn't what any of us want to see.Meh... feck off Huddersfield.
Hopefully this one of those fcukups that we bounce back from. We've had results like this before and the wheels haven't fallen off. Form is a worry tho
You could have chosen any other players than Sylvestre tbh, he was decent for United for a while.Why does every new player have to be compared to the ones that worked out? There have been far more that didn't work out. People always say but De Gea, but Evra, but never but Kleberson, Bellion, Miller, Obertan, Bebe etc.
At the moment Lindelof looks less fit for the Premier League than the lovechild of Mikael Silvestre and William Prunier!
Agreed. You can't keep asking attackers to turn it on and off.This is what freaking happens when you take an in form team and make them play for 0-0 at Anfield. Everything gone after that.
Bad coaching and not nearly enough performances from the likes of Lindelof, Herrera, Smalling, Mkhi et al.
Bore off.Mourinho is the third dinosaur we've hired in a row.
Yes we can. We've struggled to replace him.Yous can’t blame Rooney today...
Maybe it’s time our fans woke up to the fact Herrera is utter garbage.
Ive maintained this for a long time. He is POTY material for a team who finishes 6th, and not for an elite football team.Yous can’t blame Rooney today...
Maybe it’s time our fans woke up to the fact Herrera is utter garbage.
And a coach who cannot instill better attacking tactics or improve our attacking players.We were hurt badly by two school boy errors.
We have a VERY weak midfield.
We have too many average players.
That’s bollocks. Last three games we’ve been negative. It’s the same shite as last season.We've played one negative game this season, one. Not sure its Mou thats the cockwomble.
The fact we've been shit since because of the injuries kind of makes me glad we didn't go for it at Anfield.
Yes, I think we're clearly lacking Pogba & decent ideas and supply from midfield. When we get the ball near the box, we're trying to thread the ball through the eye of a needle, but against gritty defending sides like that it's just not going to work. We need to be more direct. Look at our wins this season, how many goals came from direct football? Pretty much all the key ones.It's the mentality that bothers me. I accept individual errors in attacking moves if they're trying to play creatively, but if your idea of chasing a lead is 20 minutes of crosses and long passes then that's on the manager not the players.
I feel the general consensus is that we needed a RW and LB and we havent addresed neither of those issues yet.Today shows how far we still have to go. I said it before but my hope this season is for us to compete with City, if we finish in the top 3, have a good run in the UCL and win a cup i'd consider it a good season. People told me thats rediculous, that we should be aiming to win everything but today shows how far we still have to go. We've made good progress since Jose came but we're still 3-4 players away from winning anything.
Mata and Herrera are the darlings of United but the fact is neither are good enough. Herrera has no real quality except to get about the pitch, not to dissimilar to Fletcher. I feel for Mata because he isnt a winger but hes not even our best number 10. When you're trailing behind the likes of Fellaini and Miki for your preferred spot its time to call it a day. Young is a good make shift LB but we really need someone who can play that position as he does a job there but isnt great.
The squads made some good progress but we are missing 2 attacking players (ala Sanchez and Guizman) and 2 fall backs. I dont share everyones doom and gloom but today was a bit of a wake up call to how far we still have to go.
I keep harping on it, but we didn't even consider a LB this past summer, which I will always find shocking. I can almost see why we left RW the way it is (tried to sign a few, just didn't work out) but Jose refuses to play Martial and Rashford together and instead wants to push a #10 in Mata out there. Lingard isn't good enough to be a routine starter; he's just squad material.I feel the general consensus is that we needed a RW and LB and we havent addresed neither of those issues yet.
I don't think he's garbage but I think he's utterly redundant in a team with Matic in it. He's too defensive and not good enough at linking midfield and attack. Arguably, Herrera's best qualities come from what he doesn't do on the ball (breaking up play etc), not what he does with it.Yous can’t blame Rooney today...
Maybe it’s time our fans woke up to the fact Herrera is utter garbage.
Effectively six with the current goal difference gap.So is that City 5 points in front of us now then??
Why write Lindelof SO soon though?Why does every new player have to be compared to the ones that worked out? There have been far more that didn't work out. People always say but De Gea, but Evra, but never but Kleberson, Bellion, Miller, Obertan, Bebe etc.

Yeah....I agree, this one is painful......especially with the matches coming up.The meltdown in here will be amusing. But on this occasion, I think it is warranted.
Huddersfield goalkeeper assisted their 2nd goal. That was how bad we were today. We just gift-wrapped two goals to Huddersfield - they didn’t even have to sweat for it.We were hurt badly by two school boy errors.
We have a VERY weak midfield.
We have too many average players.
Going to be an absolute mare catching them nowEffectively six with the current goal difference gap.
Oh God, I didn't realize that was today. Aalesund is going crashing down.So.. Anyone in the mood for Aalesund vs Kristiansund?
