They look crap but we look scared to go forward. Show some backbone and put them in their place, they're naff.

 

[Ollie Derbyshire]

Yeah. And after the game, there will be posts in Dorgu's performance thread saying how bad he is and how he contributes nothing.

He’s played very well today, the way a wing back should be in my mind. Final cross/pass needs work though but the forwards aren’t helping him.

 

[RedIan]

Mentality of the coach, 5 defenders and 2 DMs at OT is a disgrace.

For real??
Hes defending a 3-0 away lead. We have to keep it tight, not his fault the players are bottling it.

 

[Withnail]

There are plenty 20 or younger that could easily be one of the first name on the sheet at MU. So that's not an excuse for him missing chance after chance and being frustrating.

Plenty?

Who are these 20 year old or younger wingers that are better than Garnacho?

 

[IrishMcD]

He ruined almost everything he touched

Yup, and it’s not just his terrible first touch, it’s reaction to his shit first touch. He just stands and throws a strip and makes no effort to win ball back. Is fecking kill him if I shared a dressing room with him.

 

[diarm]

Get Amad on for Maz and kobbie on for Ugarte

I agree on the first but Ugarte has been good. He's covering so much ground.

 

[OverratedOpinion]

Shame about the Garna miss, the pass from Dorgu deserved a goal.

 

[Ollie Derbyshire]

You might get more

Doubt it

 

[Todd]

We legitimately would've been a lot better off keeping McSauce as a striker.

Hojlund is a lost cause and Garnacho isn't too far behind him.

 

[groovyalbert]

Need Bruno in midfield. Wasted in the 10 with a number 9 dropping deep.

 

[DSG]

I'm.fuming at that clown in the 9 shirt
He is a total.liability

It’s like we are playing with 10.5 instead of 11

 

[vanrooney]

I'm.fuming at that clown in the 9 shirt

Hojlund did quite well in fact. Garnacho shoud have had two - one minimum

 

[redshaw]

Hojlund really poor, he just can't seem to run forward without something going wrong. Let the player behind you either foul you or you run from the cnut, don't elbow back.

 

[Chicharo]

Two solid chances:

- Garnacho gets the ball from Bruno, but his first touch is awful
- Three versus two, but Hojlund couldn't either shoot or pass the ball. Instead he lost it.

Plus Garnacho's chance.

We are screaming for a proper striker.

Mainoo instead of Hojlund sounds like a better option in the second half for me.

 

[christinaa]

Garnacho moves well in good positions but omg his shooting is abysmal

 

[Escobar]

Mainoo for Hojlund and Amad for Mazraoui, please.

Yes please. Hopefully the last game of Hojlund for us ever

 

[Woziak]

Nought to do with coach.....it's about mentality

He sets them up to defend with 7 players, that’s on him, no more excuses for Ruben if he screws this up tonight he can go!

He has no experience of managing an elite Super team, none whatsoever!

 

[RedDevilRoshi]

Absolutely horrendous performance. Not even a single shot on target nor can we keep a decent period of good possession to build some passages of play and confidence.

Surely we can’t play any worse than that otherwise I’m really going to start panicking if we go 2 down here.

 

[SER19]

If we play like that in the final Spurs does us

If we play like that in Sunday League the dog and duck does us. Such a poor attitude and showing from players. What a reception they got. While sitting near relegation, and can hardly break into a spring against half a bilbao team. One of the most dispiriting halves of season

 

[Florida Man]

I don’t think Weghorst even had a shot on target!

He had some decent goals but still very competitive for worst finisher of recent times. Least it was a loan too.

 

[MaxZorin]

This coach radiates negativity your 0-3 up and he plays 5221, Jesus surely we can’t let this continue next season, we just can’t keep this guy next season, their whole attacking Unit has not travelled, I’m genuinely starting to detest our coach, go 3421 attacking kill the tie, he’s playing to try and not lose 0-3 seriously we need to bin 5221 system or bin Ruben, someone at the club needs to tell him 5 defenders and 2 CDM’s can no longer be tolerated at old Trafford ever again!

Did you want Qatar, aye?

 

[MonkeysMagic]

There is the sum of zero players that can competently pass the ball at utd. If you let that sink in, you'll realise how impossible a job it is for Amorim. Anyone who watched that half cannot possibly come to any other conclusions.

 

[DarkLord1984]

If we play like that in the final Spurs does us

If we even get there, that is.

 

[stepic]

He should be on 4/5 assists this season if we had forwards that actually played like forwards. He always creates a really decent chance. But haters ignore it always.

He makes one sloppy pass there’s about 30 messages in here about it, he plays a brilliant through ball which should have been a goal there’s like 5 comments on it. Matchday thread bullshit for ya

 

[Bobski]

Ugarte has been very bad tonight, playing him at the weekend looking a mistake.

Athletic are crap, really there should be no way Utd are making such hard work of this.

 

[MaxZorin]

If we play like that in the final Spurs does us

Spurs will do us, anyway

 

[Hughie77]

Hojlund away was very good, tonight he's been poor . We can't keep them up there end long enough. 45 mins . I've been shitting myself all day that something is going to go wrong. Massive 45 mins Massive.. come on lads

 

[Bastian]

He should be on 4/5 assists this season if we had forwards that actually played like forwards. He always creates a really decent chance. But haters ignore it always.

Nah, nah, I recognise the couple of passes he's made where we should have scored. He also should have found two players (the shite cross that was headed and his effort where he could have laid it on a plate for Hojlund). I just don't see a player in him. As I said before, I hope he improves exponentially in a short space of time.

 

[always_hoping]

No surprise so far as Manchester United never do things the easy way.

Frustrating to concede to their only shot on target in that half and it came from a sloppy United pass. Big wasted chance for Garnacho hopefully not a costly one.

 

[Hester_manc]

Get Amad on for Maz and kobbie on for Ugarte

I agree. I fear Maz is going to get sent off.

 

[C'est Moi Cantona]

Play like that again the second half we'll get everything we deserve.

 

[Ace of Spades]

Mentality of the coach, 5 defenders and 2 DMs at OT is a disgrace.

No it is not. A keeper who can't make saves and forwards who can't score. We literally missed a sitter while they score from a pot shot because our keeper is useless.

We have had chances but our forwards are tragic.

 

[moodyred]

I want to blame Garnacho for the misses, but he made such good runs which you never see Hojlund does.

Maguire is the culprit for that goal. Hope he redeem himself by keeping the defence tight in the 2nd half.

Hojlund.....can we replace this man asap?

 

[Oscar Bonavena]

How long have you watched us for?

Ok, last 35 years. If there's a player who's consistently f**ked up as many gilt edged goal opportunities with the regularity that Garanacho has, I've never seen him.

 

[CannibalSpectre]

Wish the chances would fall to Hojlund but TBF to him he is creating them by dropping deep

He's been rubbish

 

[Superunknown]

Mainoo for Hojlund and Amad for Mazraoui, please.

I would go for that, too.

It's been a bit shit that first half. We haven't look composed at all. When we get the ball in our first third, we look panicky.

 

[SER19]

Was a great shot, but also doesn't surprise me that it went in.

I thought i was being harsh then Savage mentioned it too, my first response was to wonder why hes going for that 2 handed.

 

[Malone_Post]

Overly negative in here mostly. Not saying we've been good, but they haven't really done much and those Garnacho chances should continue second half. We'll be fine

We’re being dominated and beaten by an Atletico team missing their four best players.

It’s been absolutely tragic. But absolutely in line with everything we’ve seen so far under Amorim.

 

[Ollie Derbyshire]

Plenty?

Who are these 20 year old or younger wingers that are better than Garnacho?

At least Scholsey knows a good player when he sees one. Said the same as many on here before the game. If we sell him he’ll go somewhere and bang the goals in.

 

[Escobar]

For real??
Hes defending a 3-0 away lead. We have to keep it tight, not his fault the players are bottling it.

I tend to agree but for the love of god he should instill a better mentality and flow
