Wow just hearingg on the commentary about the Lukaku tweet and Pogba absent because he's trying to force a move? Is Lukaku gone for sure then? Ive sortof been ignoring all the transfer drama. Really good equaliser that.
From what he's been doing on twitter I don't think he will play even if we don't sell him.

I have heard someone being called a role model. I have heard someone being called a model pro.

Role model pro is a new one. MUTV.. always educating.

Midfield has been poor getting constantly overrun. Andreas looks completely lost on the pitch.

AVB a bright-spot, wish Shaw would show similar aggression on the left hand side.

Why is Piatek in this crap side when he could be playing much higher

Pereira is a foul machine
He really is. He should be far away from any starting lineup, even the youngsters (Gomes, Chong, Greenwood) should be selected before him. I can't see him ever becoming a great player; better to sell in this window.

I had to mute this guy on MUTV. I dont know who the hell he is but sickening to listen to him.

The worst part is, I see this team starting v Chelsea but with Pogba and Maguire in for Rojo and Pereira. Maybe Lingard for Mata also but thats like replacing a turd with a slightly fresher one.

DdG is obviously being asked to do more with his feet so passes like that will be the norm this season.

You will know this if you're a keeper but there's no way that is de geas fault. A good player will desire for a ball in that position and has the capability to take it from defence to further up the field.

Matic is way too slow and clumsy in his old age and should not be playing.

Poor from DDG again, beaten from distance at the near post... becoming a common theme.

Matic is a disaster.

Same old United. After 30 min, all the high press disappears.

Why are United still not capable of playing triangle passes. Every other team does :lol:

Red Card for Casemiro!
They are outnumbering us in midfield with that diamond, with McT and Matic getting drawn out everywhere and leaving the center backs exposed.

We should be going direct with our width, but Mata is crippling us on the right and barring Matic no one is looking for that ball over the top.

Saying this, I do think de gea is a little past it and conceding such goals at the near post shouldn't be a surprise anymore.

Probably. We’re in big big trouble yet again next season unless we bring in at least two more players in both midfield and attack. It’s Ole’ funeral if we don’t.

Matic has been having a very good match bar the goal. Last game to slaughter him imo.

Mata and Matic playing is killing us. This is why we need a DOF. At a time when pace and quick passing is the most important thing in the PL we continue to field these dinosaurs.

Mata is left alone in space out side because he can't do anything useful with it. And in the middle he's pressed easily because of the mobility. Both which kill our ability to create space, Martial & Rashford constantly double teamed on the other side.

Matic there lost the ball in a terrible space and to compound it was too slow to recover. Sad stuff considering the front 3 of AC Milan ain't exactly the fastest in the world.

Basic logic gaps that anyone with a football brain and big picture view would understand.
