Did not realize it was a joke. All good.
Not a great game...just a bit off in everything we do today. Fingers crossed.
Hopefully it's more enjoyable

Not a great game...just a bit off in everything we do today. Fingers crossed.
Hopefully it's more enjoyable
Why are we sitting off them so much? This isn't good enough.Apart from Sancho, we have no one who can keep the ball in the final third. We need to be tidier when we go forward and sustain attacks.
Brilliant.Maybe what we're seeing is information overload, the players seem to be forcing a lot of passes even when they're not on so it seems they want to play in a certain way but don't really know how to yet so are making a lot of poor decisions. Either way they was a really poor half and hopefully we can make some adjustments at half time.Yeah, this formation isn't gonna work. There's a reason no other big club plays 4-2-2-2.McTominay the best player in the pitch. Only one really showing urgency on and off the ball.
Maguire and Lindelof have done well. Sancho has done some nice things. Everyone else has had some really sloppy moments with Rashford and Bruno the biggest offenders.
Rashford has been guilty of this forever. He just rarely ever plays well even in games where he produces.
Bruno has become a liability of late which is depressing because he’s so much better than this. He’s always been a guy who will give the ball away a bit but it’s just too much now and the moments of brilliance are less prominent. He needs to get it sorted or needs to be taken out of the side.Harry and Scotty have been good.
Collectively it's a fat disappointment.
We need better attacking patterns and some more creativity from deep. McFred don't complement each other in that regard.Rashford and Bruno will be in trouble under Ralf. Rashford barely looks interested, no pressing, no off the ball work and very little effort overall. Bruno just keeps losing the ball and it’s one of those days when nothing comes off. Hopefully Ralf teaches him to keep it simple at times, but I doubt he is going to change much.Ralf's Wall
When was the last time we had a game with 2 good halves ?
Sancho the best of the front three and will be off as soon as he makes two mistakes in a rowLike i said, not good enough, if he wants to play this Ole shit and try to grind results while training something else, pass. Rather see them trying and failing, while slowly getting better at it than this Ole type of junk.Can we also please pass forward? I get bored with see the ball go back to Maguire and Lindelof again and again.McT our best player. Ronaldo, Bruno and Rashford have had shockers so far.
It'll take time to get us playing the way he wants. There'll be some false dawns at the start, some good signs here and there and they have to erase quite a bit of their memory of the poor structure we used to have.
His performance in the EL final was a cut above in that regard. If he doesn't have space to run in to he's largely ineffective. Average technician with horrendously indulgent decision making.
You think Rashford should stay on then?...
Rashford is literally the only player showing any intent to stretch the defence. Bruno, Sancho, and Ronaldo all keeping come short to the ball and deep. By all means propose taking Rashford off, but as against Watford, who do you then see doing the honest running off the ball?This is the Xmas period with strange results
Liverpool,Man City and Chelsea all struggled Today all winning with a late pens
I will take a 1-0 Ronaldo penalty right nowRashford's new song: To the tune of Feed The Scousers;
Feed the neeeettttt, the football is made of food
I had the same thought. Hopefully second half is much better.tbf Norwich have batted well too.
I dunno, don’t think you can really approach games like that.
The lack of endeavour to pass through the lines from midfield from Scott especially was just gutless football.
Feck me I’m properly livid
Takes 5 extra touches before his brain catches up and he's able to calculate a pass.On a positive note, McT is playing quite well. Some nice interceptions and passes.
The team have had only a small number of training sessions under the new manager, its going to take a few months to get things really right. There are mistakes happening but also hints of changes. I think you have got your comments spot on.You do have to appreciate the players turning up in the first match of a manager's reign before returning to normal in the next game.Awful performance.
Rashford,Ronaldo and Bruno really poor.
Rashford should not have started,been poor for weeks and hes come back from surgery looking worse than ever.
Should be hooked at the break.
Hope to see Greenwood on asap.Strategy Guys ! Ralf realised our players cant press more than 30 mins so he saved them for second half !1st half ratings

Bad.Rashford was far better when playing with an "injury".
Dont you mean patches.What the hell is this man??Its the second game, and only half time. We’ve dominated for the most part, we’ll be alright.Poor half from Rashford and Ronaldo, the ball isn't sticking up top, Sancho has been the best our attackers and the 2 CB's have been solid. Mason on for the 2nd half for me.Very poor stuff really. Hopefully it'll be better second half. Must win game this.- Status
