Maybe I should have put my 25p on over 3.5 goals in the game rather than 1.5.
This, don't care if we win 6-2 in the end.Just keep attacking. We know our strengths so keep it going.
Steady on, gambling is a slippery slope.Maybe I should have put my 25p on over 3.5 goals in the game rather than 1.5.
The spine is clicking but the defence needs a lot of work.Herrera clearly has been told to push forward more.
he has been brilliant.
finallyWho’s got Pogba as Ff captain then
I like this new version of Pogba
WE have still not played anyone we should not normally beat, since Ole came in. But we certainly look more like a Manchester United team. And we are no longer a bore fest, in fact we are the complete opposite.Honestly, if we get much more of this, imagine if Ole DOESN'T get the job because summit else has already been agreed behind closed doors.
Agreed but I'm not really worried about challenging for the title yet. Just being excited to watch the next match is enough for me. The clean sheet annoys me more because Dave has to be frustrated and I hate that for him.Yeah but we won't against the top teams. To go to title challengers we need to sort our defence out, Liverpool are perfect example of that this season unfortunately
haha Yeah if you put it that way.Quite amazing to have to put up with years of Mourinho's negative football and the biggest thing he leaves us with is a shit defence.
Cracking player, totally misused and underrated on here.Herrera clearly has been told to push forward more.

It's almost poeticQuite amazing to have to put up with years of Mourinho's negative football and the biggest thing he leaves us with is a shit defence.
Agree. He doesn’t fix us and we still need to strengthen the defence, but he’ll improve us short term.People saying we don't need Smalling... We wouldn't concede these easy goals from standard situations with him in the team.
Cashed out as soon as Bournemouth got the corner. Bitten too much by those sort of things in last few years.Oh you poor thing.
Yep, it's set piece defending. Our open play defending hasnt been bad these 3 games. It's all awful set piece defending which was a thing during Mourinhos time here too. Pretty sure it was a weakness under LVG too. We need a centerback who can organize everyone on set pieces and really dominate the box IMO.I'd prefer if we won by 3 or 4 goals without conceding. Good news is it's fixable.
We dont want clean sheets...It’s really not fair on de gea why can’t this team just manage a clean sheet? It’s really not fair.
Yeah, most fans seem willing to put up with a bit of fragility if we get our attacking mojo back. I must say it looks like there's some drilling we could do now, there's no reason these players should be quite so bad from set pieces, but as you suggest Jose's 'the defence is bad so we can't attack at all' mantra was infuriating.We obviously need to sort the defence out, but Jose just made it that to protect them we didn't attack. Best form of defence is attacking.
I don't think we going to sign an attacker but damn yes we need to sort this defense and we can go all the way hopefully.We just need a few signings, and this team will be a very strong team. Need to sort out defense, get a new top class attacker and we look very strong.

I like him too. Was all for buying him in the summer. Although, I believe for that kind of money we need a legit world class performer like Van Dijk.Maguire will be perfect for us in every way in my opinion. He’s strong, a superb presence in the air, can pass and has leadership qualities. A Lindelof Maguire partnership could be a strong one.
