No one has argued it is
Using injuries as an excuse for yesterday doesn't make sense then.
I'd wager with Martinez, Eriksen and Casemiro around we muster shots on goal.
Never conflate facts with excuses. Its a stone cold hard reality a United missing 10 players cannot make an impact vs a full strength Bayern Munich, making a point to their own fans. Especially a United in THIS form. All this talk of "they weren't brothered" is laughable. Especially since they lost to a freaking Frankfurt 5-1 on Saturday and were determined to not look that inept again.
Nonsense
You're forgetting how often McT was deployed there in the pastand was absolutely hopeless at it.
Some sensible points in here.
Even if we had won 6-0 last night, we would have still crashed out form the group. It was mostly a dead rubber game. The issue was when we lost to Galatasaray and Copenhagen, and these were inexcusable even with injuries comparing squads on paper and that we were leading in both games.
So your saying an out of form Bayern kept us comfortably at bay at old trafford on a complete dead rubber for them, when we had to win to have any chance of progressing. We never even made a good chance all game not one. That's 180 minutes of football iv just spent my hard earned money to go to, and we never even created a proper chance in either of the games.
Agree with this post. There’s so many negatives to post yet for some bizarre reason, some posters still think he’s the man for the job and blame everything but the manager. Every semi decent team away is like playing prime Barcelona. Every single team seems to play better than United, even in the games United win. 50% losses this season already for fecks sake
His cultists seem to have convinced themselves we have one of the worst squads in the league that is moreover hit by historical and unprecedented number of injuries, so it’s actually mid table and lower placed teams that should be favorites against us and no manager in the world could do better than The Disciplinarian. Plus they will always have the famous Chelsea win to lean back on.
I’ve never seen a team come to Old Trafford, look this unbothered and still win a game very comfortably. I know it’s Bayern and they have loads of quality but they didn’t even step out of first gear yesterday, it was a meaningless game for them and it was so apparent in their performance, yet somehow we could not create a single goal scoring opportunity throughout 90 minutes.
Nah, Bayern are just not that good.
Nope
Nonsense. What about those 20 minutes against Tottenham?
Plus the good response after going 1-0 down against Bournemouth.
Absolutely. It's been a worry for some time. He quoted recent Everton and Galatasary performances as the standards to work towards... Everton had 26 shots, and Galatasary scored three and could have had a few more. It's almost surreal. I have accepted that ETH is now managing his own demise, protecting his 'ETH' brand. He knows he has lost that squad, he cannot inspire, coach or guide them and they aren't listening anyway. You can see it. ETH is too bullish and self-indulged. His, his team are playing terrible football, consistently.
I am afraid he has lost it. We were toothless, one shot on target. The commentators mentioned several times how fluent and coherent Bayern were and how we were not. Manager has been in place for 18 months, what is he trying to do? Any ideas? These comments are really disturbing, just another reason why he will be gone soon.
Wet teabags can be seriously threatening if the scenario is right. You can step on it, someone can hit you in the eye with a wet one and it sticks like cow shit on a wall.
What else do you expect him to say, it's been widely communicated that we are trying to ship out some players who aren't justifying their wages and want to revamp the squad. We haven't had clarity regarding the Ineos deal and outcome from it, if and who will change in the club's hierarchy, and we don't know how much we can afford to spend shortly if all - on top of all that, he needs to make sure he keeps the players as on high spirits as possible and try to adjust the team to get out results.
