Lost the ball quite a bit early in the game but other than that he has been ok. Fellaini has been just as poor. Still I think if Rooney was to come off for Herrera or Mhki the team would be a lot more fluid and we would be far more dangerous going forward.Am I missing something as I see nothing to suggest Rooney is the worst player on the field.
If Fellaini gets sent off we are stuffed. Mata has played well. Its a Maureen moment...Morgan for Fellani. Mikhi for Martial..yeah...will bring more trikery.
I thought Mata has been good.
His credentials mean nothing if he keeps making weird decisions like this. What he did before doesn't matter. LVG came with a good reputation too.Seems fairly obvious to a lot of us, but for whatever reasoning Mourinho hasn't done it. Hard to second guess a manager of his credentials but I think this set-up we are playing is unbalanced.
Blind and Baiily are so tight at the back.
FFSEasy tiger.
*huffingWe're hoofing and puffing. We'll eventually score and open them up. Credit to them they're defending very well. Like how Pogba produces some great passes out of nowhere.
That really was something.He lost the ball 3 times in the space of a minute. Only Rooney could manage that.
Hardly a surprise given Scholes thinks the same. Everyone has their biases.
Mata is again our best player yet we have idiots posting this. Incredible.
He's the captain though, you'll expect him to be consistently be one of the top performers in our matches, not consistently one of the worst.Rooney wasn't even THAT bad, Fellaini and Martial were worse. Honestly you lot, its like you hate Rooney so much that he's like Satan to you.
Youngs certainly more steady.... but isn't as good as Martial on his good day..... just need to find away of getting him out of this slumpMartial has been inivisible. Young will do a better job.
Constantly losing the ball over and over again whilst creating abosolutely nothing all game isn't anything to suggest he has been the worst on the pitch? At one point he lost the ball 3 times in 30 secondsAm I missing something as I see nothing to suggest Rooney is the worst player on the field.
He doesn't deserve to be taken off. But Best player?? Incredible
Mata is again our best player yet we have idiots posting this. Incredible.
That's bullshit. Fellaini won loads of duels before his mistake ending it that freeckick. It's like Rooney is your lover and you can't stand anyone criticize him. See how great that kind of rhetoric is.Rooney wasn't even THAT bad, Fellaini and Martial were worse. Honestly you lot, its like you hate Rooney so much that he's like Satan to you.
Agree. While the pitch and conditions are making it difficult, the slow passing and build up are not working.Fellaini, Mata and Rooney off. Herrera, Rashford and MkHitryan on. How fecking hard can it be. Pace please or this is ending 0-0 or worse 0-1
Mhki on for Rooney, and Mata switches to play the #10 while Maki plays the wing and we're sorted on pace.Mata lacks pace for his position, I don't think the idea is that stupid.
Not for an £89m player. But he has a right to time to adjust. Fellaine is probably being picked because he's the only midfielder we have with musclePogba has done ok.
This match proves Fellaini is not a holding player, can you imagine his fouls vs Arsenal or City, he would be off within half an hour.
We must be really desperate for that… Just hope Martial has a better second half.I think Martial needs some time off, he looks pretty fatigued mentally. I'd look to give Young a chance in the second half here.
Where did i mention Fellaini's performance level? I just think Moss will be out to not make any more controversy after not sending Costa off last week. One slight challenge and he'll go in my opinion.Because he's on a yellow? I think that he always got sent off for us was with a straight red, bar that Sociedad match iirc. when he got sent off in 90th.
Jesus, it was quick for him to apparently turn shit.
That's why you switch he and rooney. Then you sub in Micky to play on the right who has the speed and dribbling ability.Mata lacks pace for his position, I don't think the idea is that stupid.
True also Not much has got past Clucas so far this season, seems a tidy DMBy the way, Huddlestone has been very good so far for Hull this season.
He needs to get involved in the game at the very least. He's been completely invisible thus far.Martial hasnt been good but atleast he can beat his man and do something unpredictable. He should stay at the pitch
Always get a bit negative this time of the month.You'd think we're losing this 3-0 by the negativity here.
Calm down ladies, they'll tire by the 60th minute and we'll win this by couple of goals.
