Maybe it is just that my standards are so low now, but that wasn't that bad of a first half. Just need to cut out some of the lax passing
It’s my opinion and it’s surely the most logical explanation?
You think we've never had chances under Mourinho or LVG in their boring games?
We've played better today but there's still lack of urgency in many phases of the game.
That inexperienced coaches may well be a part of the problemLogical explanation for what?
Not even world classIts not a lack of urgency. It’s the reality of facing a team with ten men behind the ball.
We created one sitter and one very presentable chance which produced a world-class save. We also flashed the ball across the box a few times and have 5/6 corners.
There’s plenty there to score a goal but again, I feel we lack a world-class CF and a world-class RW
It’s quite a laughable view in all honesty, albeit a common one on here. Despite knowing nothing of their capability and knowing nothing of what they do on the training pitch, these people can so unequivocally declare the coaches as the problem.

Watching us this season - they’re more a problem, than a solution.
Another game that the opposition sit back, another game we look devoid of ideas. Are the coaches not meant to work on that?
We just stand still most of the time passing it side to side.

Is it just me or we’ve been good today? Rashford and Mason scores, and we’re home and dry considering the team they put out. I understand if you don’t rate Ole, I generally don’t too, but I’m evaluating on a game-by-game basis, and we’ve been fine today. We just need to score the opening goal.

That’s where Marcus needs to improve, because that header is the definition of the goal you’re describing. Cavani would have buried that for us, and hopefully Haaland begins doing so in August.We have been really good. Total domination against a good team. We should be one or two up, but as I have pointed out many times we don’t score the cheap, scrappy goals which are required to get ahead at times in tight PL games.
This is the biggest problem today, there's lack of any attacking outlet on the right and it's hurting the team.

I don't get what you find 'quite laugable'. Fans don't see training sessions, match preparation, pre-match or half time team talks, tactical briefings, coaching meetings or any of it.
Are you saying that any opinion on issues facing a team that don't exclusively involve the 90 minutes we see on the pitch are 'quite laughable' or are you just being condescending for the purposes of this issue?
You've never expressed any opinion on any issue surrounding football outside of that which you see with your own two eyes then presumably in your nearly posts as you'd find the idea 'quite laugbale'. Presumably your posting history involves you running around chastising anyone talking about anything outside match day performance.
He knows as much as you tbf.
Indeed he does.
All about opinins eh
It all comes down to what level of responsibility you put on the players. Some people seem to think they’re accountable for f**k all and we pay them £200k a week for shits and giggles.
Nah that one certainly works both ways. It's usually lay the blame at the players door or lay it all solely at Ole and the coaches door. The truth is obviously somewhere in the middle.
Indeed it is, nobody’s free from blame. But coaches don’t fluff headers and give the ball to the opposition. Nor do they coach away the gaping holes in our squad.
They're responsible for plenty of other things though, which contribute to how we play. We have players who blatantly aren't good enough and we possibly have coaches too. Obviously we can only use our own judgement regarding the coaching staff, as there's no real metric to judge their capabilities, bar what we see on the pitch.
It's not really outlandish to suggest that we could be a better coached team and possibly some of our coaching staff aren't at the level required. It's all very subjective as none of us have any insignt into what goes on. Unless of course you live in lala land with @GoldTrafford99 and pretend you've written published books on SAF and are best buds with all our coaching staff.
I won’t argue with any of that. I will argue with people who seem to lay the blame solely on the coaches with such conviction though.
Me personally, I form my opinions on the things I know about rather than the things I don’t. I know some players aren’t good enough, I know some positions need improving, I know some players just aren’t effective against the kind of opposition we’re coming up against. I don’t know what the coaches are or aren’t doing right and probably won’t until we fix some of the problems in the team. Obviously, it’s all very opinionated of course.
We played well today against a very disciplined team.On the break, we're great but against a settled defence our plan is to pass it around until Bruno, Rashford and/or Pogba does something.
This is why we're so good away and against City but so poor at home and in games like this.
OGS would be a good manager for half the PL but I can't see us ever winning a league with him because we are so poor at breaking down teams.
That’s where Marcus needs to improve, because that header is the definition of the goal you’re describing. Cavani would have buried that for us, and hopefully Haaland begins doing so in August.
Honestly if Haaland joins City and Pep stays there for the foreseeable, the title will be theirs for a while longer. We can’t afford to miss out on him.Yeah he will but can see it being for our neighbours

No. It is worse than under those two. Under Ole it is just parking the bus and praying for counter attack.
