[ManRant]

Hojlund is probably anonymous because other defences and midfield are set up to deal with him. Ours are just not set up. It is every man for himself.

Agree, everyone playing for themselves. Moment fc.

 

[mitchmouse]

Do the players know they are allowed to pass to Hojilund?

 

[git_united]

It has been obvious for months.
That the manager is allowed to continue is criminal negligence.

Which one is it? How can you press when you’re on the ball and dominating possession?

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

feel like pure sh*t, just want Matic back

 

[thisisnottaken1]

When we hired him I thought we were finally getting a manager to prioritise midfield control and possession play but he’s been the absolutely opposite

Aye exactly, it’s fecking weird and extremely disappointing. I thought that we finally had a progressive manager who would have us competing with City and Liverpool, but not only has it been yet more of the same, we’re playing even worse.

 

[Zico1982]

Please change: Dalot, Casemiro, Rashford and Mainoo

2nd half team:

Onana
Wan Bissaka-Kambwala (sigh, but there are none left)-Harry M-Amrabat
Mount-Eriksen
Amad-Bruno-Garnacho
Højlund

 

[Ekeke]

Hilarious. Blaming a 19 year old in his second senior start while Dalot who’s far more experienced gets away with being utterly shit.

A traffic cone would slow Bournemouth more than Dalot did in the first half. That’s how bad he was.

Dalot has been poor but he's had nowhere near enough help from Garnacho and the rest with Kerkez and other players bombing down Bournemouth's left to support play. He hasnt been playing 1 vs 1 all the time hes been outnumbered. Kluivert, Kerkez and Christie have all come down the left side as well as Sinisterra who started and Kelly who came on for him

 

[LDUred]

Liverpool have lost a lot of players to injury and still maintained a decent standard of performance. Players have stepped in and done a job in an organised system.

This is just so inept and sad to watch.

 

[IRELANDUNITED]

We are so unbearably easy so play against, it’s infuriating

 

[Ollie Derbyshire]

Mount and Eriksen must be much better than what we have out there

They can’t be any worse. Nothing can.

 

[the_cliff]

Nah, the game against Crystal Palace in the League Cup was good.

but apart from that, it’s been horrific.

So the only game Bruno wasn't playing and we actually had a normal bleeding midfield ?

 

[FootballAI]

We play like this next season we would be in relegation

 

[izak]

We ship in too many goals

To top it all off we don't outscore the opponent...

 

[Woziak]

That was near pathetic. We may as well just just not turn up to future games. First choice front line up and we managed 4 shots. Yes 2 injuries but everyone has them. Ten Hag is not that man for us.

You think he has some professional pride as a coach, so make at least 2/3 subs now.

Casemiro has detoriated out of site, must come off, let’s dominate the midfield and play on the front foot. Bring on Amribat, with Kobie shorting up the right flank they are targeting and Eriksen on the left , then play Bruno false 9, Rasmus needs to come off, he’s offering very little!

Then last 20 bring on Wheatley and Amad for Kobbie and Garnaucho (been poor today!)

ETH probably genuinely gets sacked tonight, if he doesn’t turn this round !

 

[pseudo_canadian]

Just please stop playing such an open midfield. That’s all I’m asking.

 

[LawCharltonBest]

When we hired him I thought we were finally getting a manager to prioritise midfield control and possession play but he’s been the absolutely opposite

It’s like when we got Van Gaal and Woodward did that interview on MUTV salivating about what an attacking coach he is. Then he proceeds to be the most defensive coach I’ve ever known

 

[Kopral Jono]

Dalot, my goodness.

 

[JPRouve]

By now, he’s taking the piss not fixing this. Don’t care about his pride; doesn’t have the right to tank our season because of it.

His head is firmly in his backside, so there is no chance for him to see the light.

 

[Woziak]

We play like this next season we would be in relegation

ETH won’t be here next season !

 

[erikcred]

Nah, the game against Crystal Palace in the League Cup was good.

but apart from that, it’s been horrific.

Yes, against the Palace B team. Guess that's the level now.

 

[Wing Attack Plan R]

Hojlund is probably anonymous because other defences and midfield are set up to deal with him. Ours are just not set up. It is every man for himself.

We play like a pick up team that has never trained together.

 

[Isotope]

Casemiro has to go. Beyond a joke at this point.

His motivation is gone. He get used to win things and challenging for trophies. Things like this happened. It's unprofessional but this things often happened.

Just like when teams having friendly games in the Summer.

 

[frostbite]

ETH will say we dominated the first half, with 61% possession.

 

[Maureen-yo]

And people blame Onana.

People don't understand how bad we've been this season in our overall general play. It's actually scary. Our xGA is 62 in the league and that's not even counting this game. We've conceded 46 and that's counting this game.

In translation we've conceded enough good chances and shots to have conceded 16 more goals in the league this season. We have the biggest positive difference between xGA and GA this season out of all teams in the league, that's due to the keeper. We have conceded the 3rd most big chances in the league this season and have the 4th highest xGA. Only teams in the relegation zone have more...

But it's Onana's fault.

This… people waxed lyrical about De Geas saves to keep us in games but fail to comprehend that Onana has done it so much this season.

 

[RopersReturn]

I swear we don't train much on how to pass and keep the ball.

It's a coaching thing.

They’re probably coached by McClaren slumped in a chair on the touch line sending WhatsApp jokes.

 

[git_united]

Please change: Dalot, Casemiro, Rashford and Mainoo

2nd half team:

Onana
Wan Bissaka-Kambwala (sigh, but there are none left)-Harry M-Amrabat
Mount-Eriksen
Amad-Bruno-Garnacho
Højlund

Looks good to me. Amrabat is vulnerable and wouldn’t offer anything going forward but they’re not going down our left so maybe we’d be fine.

 

[Woziak]

His head is firmly in his backside, so there is no chance for him to see the light.

ETH wants to be sacked?

 

[Ollie Derbyshire]

Please change: Dalot, Casemiro, Rashford and Mainoo

2nd half team:

Onana
Wan Bissaka-Kambwala (sigh, but there are none left)-Harry M-Amrabat
Mount-Eriksen
Amad-Bruno-Garnacho
Højlund

I’d be happy to see this but I’d give Mainoo time next to Mount.

 

[the_cliff]

This… people waxed lyrical about De Geas saves to keep us in games but fail to comprehend that Onana has done it so much this season.

The same people blaming him are saying we should be 5-1 down.

 

[siw2007]

It should be 4 or 5 to Bournemouth to be fair. The quality of defending from our team is criminal, you just can’t win games of football playing like this. Other than that, some poor individual performances out there from Garnacho and Casemiro. We are lucky we are still in with a chance but something drastic needs to change to keep them out.

 

[Delano]

Just please stop playing such an open midfield. That’s all I’m asking.

Not happening now or ever. This is his philosophy and will continue to be so.

He doesn't have the players to do it; he shares a large part of that blame, but the system has been an issue for him since Ajax.

Point is, he's far to stubborn to change and he's been found out.

 

[Red Rash]

Never seen a United team where I have no idea what the style of play is meant to be. Even when Solskjaer, Mourinho and LVG were shite you at least knew what they were trying to do (even if it was tumescent).

This team has no idea what to do in attack or defense

 

[Woziak]

Mainoo has been shit in that half as well, as he was against Liverpool other than one swing of his foot.

Give him a pass because of of the inept set up.

He’s also played way too much for an 18 year old ?

 

[Fortitude]

His head is firmly in his backside, so there is no chance for him to see the light.

Well then, he needs paying up and shipping out. This is just absurd now. Even if we crawl to a win, the exact same scenario awaits us in the next game, and then the one after that, and the one after… bleurgh.

 

[mu4c_20le]

ETH will say we dominated the first half, with 61% possession.

 

[James35]

Saw this on BBC and sums us up perfectly

You see United turn up last week because it was Liverpool. Now Bournemouth playing them off the park. It isn’t an issue with talent, but an issue of attitude. This side is lazy, arrogant, and overpaid

If poorly coached was also added it would be perfect.

 

[DJ_21]

Will amad be the difference. Maybe in attack we’ll still concede another goal though.

 

[Shiva87]

Don’t understand how we can be this poor. It’s like they can walk through the team at will and we have no response.

at least sprint and not jog! This is the last part of the season and then there is enough time to get a rest.

Just don’t know which United will show up: it’s like they go to these games thinking the opponent will just let them win and are totally unprepared for a fight.

can’t be coaching! It’s happened under too many managers for this to be anything but a player issue

need Rashford, Maguire, Casemiro replaced asap.

Bruno has some goodwill but he has no control over himself in games like this.

 

[erikcred]

It should be 4 or 5 to Bournemouth to be fair. The quality of defending from our team is criminal, you just can’t win games of football playing like this. We are lucky we are still in with a chance but something drastic needs to change to keep them out.

It should be 4 or 5 to Bournemouth [insert pretty much any PL team here] to be fair. The quality of defending from our team is criminal, you just can’t win games of football playing like this. We are lucky we are still in with a chance but something drastic needs to change to keep them out.

 

[LawCharltonBest]

Will amad be the difference. Maybe in attack we’ll still concede another goal though.

Yes, he will
