I would prefer if he sent the message to the Glazers in person, per email or on the phone instead of making extremely late subs against Sevilla and Villarreal!We had a bad night, then lost on penalities, some people need to get over it. It happens in football. Our squad does lack depth, by not making subs Ole was sending a message to the Glazers that we need more players, and we do.
But I agree with the overall point. It’s not just about yesterday’s game. If we had quality options (not teenagers) on the bench for most of our games, Rashford and Bruno especially might not be completely tired by now.
Of course it didn’t help when Ole plays them in games he didn’t need to (Real Sociedad 2nd leg), but in the first half of the season Martial was bad/suspended, Cavani got his fitness late, Pogba was injured and had covid and Greenwood was out of form. In that period we literally relied on Rashford and Bruno to carry us and play 90 mins every 3 days. This should not happen again.
