-United bias.Good point by the pundits at HT about how our midfield two are far too deep to protect Lindelof and Maguire hence the gap between midfield and attack being huge and the midfield offering little going forward.
Yes but we've got the front 3 pressing hard at the moment. The issue is when we're in possession but the idea of having these 3 on the field is that it gives us a more dynamic press, I presume. Which it does, I mean Chelsea are really struggling to build from the back.Rashford doesn't have the instints of a striker, id swap him out wide and bring Greenwood inside. Whenever we do get into wide positions no one is in the box so the attach gets held up and we don't have the passing ability to cut through Chel.
It's only a matter of time Giroud gets on the end of one of CHO's crosses!I’d say we’ve been the better team...just. Although the Giroud chance was the best and only chance in the first half.
Reckon Dani Jamez will channel his inner Kanchelskis and sneak us a winner.
It was only after watching a bit of basketball did I start noticing this kind of language when watching football.
Turnovers and screens, what else is infiltrating the game?!Scholes saying McFred too deep and too concerned with protecting our CBs.
I agree.
Massively so. Just lacking quality creation and control. We've done well in the middle, we're just lacking ideas where it counts.Best part about the penalty decision is the Chelsea players were wanting a handball, until they realized it was their teammate who touched it
Yes please.We've looked okay so far. Probably the better team on balance but without either team hashing any real big moments. I'm glad we're not totally playing within ourselves as we so often do in big games, but it's only a start. We've still a lot more to show.
I don't understand the no penalty decision however. Looked to clearly hit his hand on the VAR replay and I was fully confident it would be awarded so I'd love to know how they decided it wasn't a penalty.
Fair one. That's about it yeah, though I honestly found it to be a pretty weak shot.
For once against a top 6 I think Ole has us going for it more than Chelsea with our high press. The problem is when we win the ball back we're not too sure what to do with it.
Yes....their not winning possession back as easily as Chelsea and their passes to our forward line have been non existant, we are having to rely on Maguire driving from deep or Lindelof switching play. Its all good covering ground, but that's not the only job of a midfielder.I'd take a 0-0 at full-time. Be a great results, IMO
Agree, and before, we've seen it, it bloody obvious the refs got it wrong that's why the VAR guy asks him to look at it. CL, Europa league thats a pen all day long, the EPL refs are bad,It’s the inconsistencies with these refereeing decisions that are infuriating. I guarantee you we’ll see this exact same scenario in the PL next weekend and a penalty will be given.
Tell me what we do and who we bring on that will make a difference?
Really? Fred is winning the ball regularly 10, 15 yards into the Chelsea half. Not sure where they wany him engaging.So many attacking options Chelsea have but none standout except Mount's general industriousness , they're going to have to spend big yet again.
Rashford is closing in on 20 goals for this season and Martial has 2 in his last 15, against ten man Southampton who were already 4-0 down.
Rashford can be frustrating but he's been miles better than Martial this season.
People need to stop pairing them both as if both deserve the same criticism.If we bring on Martial for Dan James, we're losing this game. No doubt about it. Martial doesn't press.We need a striker. Greenwood is a wonderful prospect but he is not ready to be the man yet
He just needs to sort out his erratic touch but I’m afraid that will never happen.
But every now and again you get an amazing tackle that makes you forgive the bad stuff
State of that Tuchel cnut.
For sure he is pressing but he looks like a toddler chasing a bouncy ball. Plus half the game he was on his ass.
Gotta agree, unfortunately. City are in the league of their own.People thinking this is a decent performance ?
I don't remember a single shot Mendy had to save.
It's an awful match from both sides. Such quality proves why there's a 10 points gap between City and rest of the league.Reece James on for CHO.
He doesn’t like the lad too much does he?
Maguire is not very goodThe problem with asking these pundits whether it’s a penalty or not is they give their answer on it like the games still being played in their day. Obviously it wouldn’t be a pen years ago it’s daft but according to the letter of the law and the precedent set this season it should be.
Nothing new. It's the reason they have to play together to begin withWow, very surprised Hudson-Odoi coming off, seemed their biggest threat.
As Neville said on commentary, there's a lot of space in behind Maguire and Lindelof - there'll be a lot of opportunity for Werner. We need to score first so that we can drop off a bit.
Not looking forward to his inevitable substitution for James or Greenwood.
what a pair of cnuts
Was just thinking that. I'd happily take him off their hands. Massive talent.
Haaland is a must this summer. Way more important than any other.
Should put him on Kante, be like two reception children having a fight- Status
