Wide areas but not from your mythical wingers. Bissaka amazingly was able to provide the width on the right. Funny that

Yer because there were other players like rashford/Greenwood and martial that needed looking after
Your version would players on top of each other and not creating any space
Howay man this is basic stuff

Problem is that Rashford and Martial are in first team for 6 seasons now. And all 6 seasons they are playing hot and cold. "They are young" excuse can't be used anymore. Both have some huge flaws in their game and it is not looking that they will change. If this is their maxed level then it is not good enough. It is good, both are very good players but for winning something....it is not

Rashford has scored more goals and made more assists combined at 23 than any player in our history. More than Duncan Edwards. More than Bobby Charlton. More than Paul Scholes. Than Ryan Giggs. Etc... Any player ever in our 140-year history.

He has more goals and assists combined than Wayne Rooney at the same age. And more than Cristiano Ronaldo at the same age.

But yeah... he's the one that suffers with inconsistency. Even though he's more consistent than Ryan Giggs and Bobby Charlton.

I'd dread to think what you would have made of a 23-year old George Best back in 1967 who was providing less stats than Marcus Rashford. You'd probably have wanted him out of the team.

Ok. You can only play with the players hes got. What did you want 2 at the back 5 up front . Then lose by a hat full. The plan and style as you say had been alright so far, the players dont I've said it before believe they can do it, until it sinks in there will be more results like this. That's not Oles fault. They need to look at themselves and believe they can do it.

Isn't it partly the manager's job to motivate them and give them that belief?

When are we going to get a dip from City then or did our hopes of that end when they made sure that the Everton game just after xmas got moved

Probably wont get a city dip, they've had theres maybe, there Everton game postponed changed the way they had to play, with no recognised striker.

Ridiculous point you know who i am referring to when i say the big 6. And if the players dont have the mentality to believe they can win those games surely thats on the manager more tham anything?

Ok managers fault, we just blame him, hes the one who puts those players on the pitch hes the one who picks the side hes the one who approaches the games tactics. Isnt it the players who are supposed to carry them out. And your big 6 only 1 of them last season who finished above us beat us. Not bad

Yes but its them on the pitch not the manager. All the words in the world cannot make a player do the right or wrong things in 90mins. So the utd manager somehow isnt a good enough motivator and he doesn't instil believe. Must have been a cardboard cut out in Paris .

You dont seem to get the point there is more to being a football manager than just picking 11 players and a formation its not fpl. The manager is also responsible for coaching patterns of play etc. We dont have a style of play at the moment or any structure to our play hence the criticism

We maybe second at the moment but we are falling back and are much more likely to end in a battle for top 4 then competing for the title

Okay, I dont seem to realise that the players have to play in patterns they have to have which is more important than patters is continuity in the play not patterns, more continuity with the play. Do you honestly think that were going to win the league. Structural is ok, I say it again its continuity and believe that these players can go and win a trophy until they believe its not happening. Many want Ole out to get a glamorous figure in who will still fail with these until they believe there good enough to win a trophy.
