That was terrible, no one thought to close him down.
Manchester United vs Rayo Vallecano (Sun 31st July, 16:00 UK time) | Happy King (Bebe) Day
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Laird asleep. Varane not reacting either.
Also it's pre-sesaon and a strange team but we look just as open as we ever do.
Good save by Heaton originally. Unlucky. Awful by Telles to just leave a huge gap for the player to run into. He was literally doing nothing staying so wide. Laird also poor on the rebound
All you Varane apologists… his passing from the back has been utterly shite.
Everybody stay calm and be patient. We're a week from the new season and have arguably a weaker squad than the one that delivered our worst ever season in PL.
If you think this is a problem, you're just a drama queen

That was absolutely atrocious. And that's why he's on his way out... hopefully.
Pressed to one side got done on the other. Too much space for any one player to defend that. Poor on the follow up though.
Poor defending there as no one pressed the guy with the initial shot. Telles or Martinez needed to engage I think.
120 million for Maguire and Varane hasn't been great spending in fairness.
Garner looks all over the place
In a real game I think VAR would have ruled it out.
Laird is totally overrated.
How the feck have we conceded to Real Volcano.
We are erupting here.
We are erupting here.
Based on what we just saw in the posts the goal was caused by Telles, Laird, Varane and Maguire. Damn.
How's that not a yellow? He did a blatant shirt pull plus what Garner was booked for.
Where is Iqbal today?
Telles has to close down or Martinez has to step up to help and push Telles wide....can't let the guy just dribble straight into the box
crazy though they are having such a tough time defensively against their 442

Hannibal's on, I give it 6 minutes until his yellow card
You remember what Rick Dalton shouted at the Manson Family in that Tarantino movie? That's exactly the stuff to berate on Telles in the dressing room later.
Good debut
Bruh, the defensive midfielder in front of him looks like he just escaped the Irish potato famine.
Was last season worse than under Moyes ?
Yeah not sure how he let him away with that
It doesn't help him that he has 2 guys who move all over the place. Donny has been good today, but the majority of his work has been done very high up while Eriksen is drifting to the flanks, leaving Garner very exposed.
Seriously???
Bailly and Hannibal replacing Eriksen and Martinez. Very good debut by Martinez imo.
Garnacho should be in the squad this season
Laird looks good
Last season was our worst in PL by all metrics and stats.
He should start against Brighton
Laird really doesn’t know when to chip a cross.
Laird has not impressed today. Yeah he's fast, but he's not done much to catch the eye.
Bit of a wake-up call for all those thinking that the guy who couldn't get a game at Bournemouth was going to solve our RB problem. Laird really doesn't look up to it.
We have some of our worst squad players on the field, it's not that surprising
Not seeing it with Laird.
Laird is rubbish
But Ole was at the wheel
Can't wait for the Eric Bailly show, it's always funny.
