It's not the best time to be on the forum.
My take is simple, if we have, like some say, one of the best attacking talents in the country, they should be doing way better than that, even without being coached 'attacking' football.
The players can't even do the basic things for God's sake. It's not a coincidence that it happened with LVG before who, was teaching them how to play on attack.
People say that pep's barca team was almost playing by itself, because he had some cracking attacking talent, they didn't even need coaching (which I agree with some of it by the way), then they come here and say that, the players aren't been coached, that's why they can't do simple fecking things. That's the hypocrisy of some of the people here. It's football, when you have players like we do, they should be doing way better, even if Tony pulis was our coach.
There's no reason Sanchez misplaces so many passes like he does for example, and i' using him as an example so that the Martial and Shaw fan boys don't jump on this post which isn't about them.
The players have been cowards, it's not a coincidence that the players that are playing the best and are lifting us and buying into mourinho philosophy are the one he bought. Matic, Lukaku, Bailly.... He isn't afraid of dumping those that don't, look at Mkhi. And I would guess that if Pogba continues like he is, next year is going to be his last here.
The talking about coaching attacking play is just ridiculous.
I agree with people that what's keeping them from playing when we play the top 6 is his approach to bug games. But it was fecking Brighton, we saw that a lot this season, against smaller teams where there's no way he told them to play defensively, so no excuses really.
He should shoulder some of the blame of course, it's his team, his responsability to sort things out, but the players are as cowards as it gets, most of them anyway.
Couldn't even string two passes against some of the smaller teams, footballers of their ilk have to be coached attack to do the basic things. It's really a joke.
I don't agree with his approach to the game, like eveyone h, but let's stop protecting the players, they have as much responsability as him.
