Manchester United vs Tottenham (Thu 25th July, 12:30 UK time)

[AltiUn]

This has been a great coming of age tour for the kids, well fecking done Angel that would've been another good goal from Rashford but ruled offside sadly.

 

[RedSky]

Spurs need to hope Lloris never gets injured

Gazzarestofname hasn't been good today. That's being generous.

 

[Untd55]

What the hell does that mean?!

Think he might be saying that even though he assisted from the centre, he was brought on as a right-winger, which means we might continue to play him there.

 

[zbcrow15]

What the hell does that mean?!

I think he is saying sadly because he doesn't get to play centrally and that is where he has the most influence. Hopefully Ole will see this and play him there more often.

 

[NJM78]

Why the feck would we want them if they were the wrong profile

What the feck is the profile!? If they are better than what we have and attainable is all that should matter.

 

[SadlerMUFC]

My stream goes down for a minute and I missed the goal...ugh

 

[Handré1990]

Tuanzebe is fecking class! The first time I’ve seen him this summer. Much, much more difficult to press a CB who can spray passes like that!

 

[Tiber]

The fecking incessant moaning.

Being sad about a goal assist is genuinely depressing

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Shite tackle from Axel. Had his chance to mince Lamela.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Isn't it something criminals have?

 

[BarstoolProphet]

I like that Axel's always looking to play instead of going for the safety backpass.

 

[BrianMcClair'sBarnet]

The thing I like about Dalot is his movement outwide.That's it.

 

[Alemar]

Why is it sad that it was assisted by Mata? That kind of intricate link up play is why we originally brought him to United.

Mata is absolutely awful as a RW. It was the first time in the entire half that he moved in the middle. So if Ole is going to play him on the right, it's bad (as assists will give him more gametime over the season to the detriment of the team). If Mata plays in the middle its another story, but I wouldn't be so sure

 

[ash_86]

Who's the spurs player that just tackled Rashford on our counter? He's been great.

 

[MrPooni]

Dalot's been pretty shocking this half.

 

[Drawfull]

Being sad about a goal assist is genuinely depressing

Yep. We know we are not perfect and there are holes in the squad, evidenced at times this half. But being pissed off when a player does something good boggles the mind.

 

[Wedge]

Great goal, now give him an extension to his contract don't want to lose him.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Fred too casual.

 

[Nickosaur]

Wes Brown sounds like he's just taken half a bottle of sleeping pills.

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

What does he look like? I don't have a stream,

 

[TRUERED89]

Gomes is brilliant

Absolutely! Hope he gets plenty of mins this season, particularly in the EL..

 

[GazTheLegend]

Mata is absolutely awful as a RW. It was the first time in the entire half that he moved in the middle.

The state of this post

You’re annoyed at mata assisting centrally because he might play on the right wing in the season?

 

[RedNed77]

Fred looks rusty.

 

[Un4givableB]

Tuanzebe is fecking class! The first time I’ve seen him this summer. Much, much more difficult to press a CB who can spray passes like that!

Pity about his defending

 

[BrianMcClair'sBarnet]

*sigh* Fred

 

[FreakyJim]

dispossessed in a dangerous area - classic Fred

 

[Camy89]

Well done Tuanzebe, great defending on Son

 

[acnumber9]

What the hell does that mean?!

I thought it was a parody at first but it seems not. I can actually almost understand it if Mata was a cnut but he’s by a distance the most likeable player Utd have. That alone makes me love to see him do well.

 

[IrishRedDevil]

Wake the feck up Fred.

 

[eltigreFalcao]

Rather have any of the teenage midfielders from Tottenham, than Fred and Matic

 

[el3mel]

Fred.

 

[Art]

Fred too casual.

He is a liability. When he loses the ball in our DM position, he will cost us goals like he has already done in the past.

 

[NJM78]

Isn't it something criminals have?

Haha yes, we must also give our scouts efits of the players we like. Some crimewatch uk scouting method.

 

[HJ12]

Fred Needs to cut out the dawdling.

 

[Adamsk7]

Fred not learning from last season and dwelling on the ball/making untidy passes in dangerous areas.

not good enough

 

[SirAnderson]

He always proves useful in and around the box, evidenced by his involvement in the goal, it's just when he is thrown out to the rightwing position that he problems arise.

Agreed, hopefully we can see him play more centrally this season.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Haha yes, we must also give our scouts efits of the players we like. Some crimewatch uk scouting method.

Not sure I would want to see some of them with a stocking over their heads.

Fratic - {noun} The state of awfulness when two things combine. See also: Shitstorm

 

[Funky Futurista]

Nah, but I don't think there's many athletes in the world that would withstand his playing style without injury, which is why I think it's his own fault. I don't really see him changing his playing style or suddenly becoming more spatially aware. His best use is probably in a very high line against weak opposition, because of his recovery pace. All in all I'm not sure if it's worth it to keep him.

In regards to his awareness I think he might learn it with age and consistent game time, but him changing playing style seems hard to do considering his age and current injury record. He did have some injuries before coming to us, but nothing big or anything that was related to each other. Really started in his second season here, but clear it's not sustainable. Wonder if someone will try to coach it out of him, or if he'll just rot basically.

 

[NJM78]

Wes Brown sounds like he's just taken half a bottle of sleeping pills.

Only half? A converstaion between both him and Bryan Robson must be enthralling.

Would love to have both of them in this squad though.

Fred Needs to cut out the dawdling.

Unfortunately I think that is him. What I mean he always takes a second too long to get the ball under control, figure out where to pass, always needs time. I wonder how he plays CM. His awareness and touch is shocking for a CM playing for United.
