    My solid 1-0 prediction is looking sweet. Too boot we're hammering them as expected - just can't finish for beans.

    Heaton hasn't actually done anything special. Unless we think we can score by shooting right at him.
    Agreed with this, we havent forced the keeper to make worldies, any keeper would be rightly criticised for not saving those. We've placed our shots poorly. We are like a blunt saw. Great midfield domination but the wings and striker are blunt.

    If just one of those chances had gone in everyone would be talking very differently. People can't see past the scoreline.
    We are dominating but I didn't like that half, our game lacks cohesion and consistency. Our chances are mainly the fruit of individual brilliance. Now I liked the one-two between Pogba and Ibrahimovic.

    United haven't been bad this season honestly, it's just that they aren't very clinical in-front of goal. There has been quite a lot of chances created but like it happened against Stoke, not finishing those chances created are hurting us.

    Clattenberg is bad enough, but the side judge missed 2 huge calls in the final minutes of the half. I don't think it was a penalty, but definitely a free kick just outside the box. Then the foul on Lingard. Both were obvious fouls. The worst thing is having to listen to the one NBCSN announcer, he's so obvious against Utd. His final statement made me laugh out loud, implying that a foul must be painful to be a foul. What an idiot.
    That commentator is an annoying fecking idiot. Also implying that if a tackle isn't a foul then it can't hurt.

    Can't fault us creating chances but our taking of them is pretty poor and considering this is a shite team who have not got one away point this season nothing but a win should be excepted. Early as it is 8 points off top will be horrible and I really doubt our top four chances.

    This should be the type of stats shown at home against sides like Burnley. It shouldn't be giving you hope, rather, anything less should have you concerned.
    Good grief. Within the context of where we have been in the last few seasons, the context of a new manager and the context of the type of football we had served up last year it gives me hope.

    "right at him"
    We'll just have to disagree then! :lol: I think you're mental if you see the last replay and don't have the view that 100% of PL keepers should save that. No it's not a direct line to Heaton but it's literally a reach to his right. It's easy and that's my point.

    of course it can explain it, your bodies aching it doesn't move as quick as you want so you don't hit shots like you want or use too.
    It can explain it but I don't think it is the case with Zlatan. He's been missing chances after chances for a while now, do you think he's been affected by fatigue during all this time ?
