Rafael 2013 seasonIts sad how time and time again our full backs let us downs. When was the last time we had a fullback that is actualy decent? Evra?

Yea, Ole was smiling at the end at this result. He looked happy with it. more ambitious manager would know that this was a lost opportunity. I bet chelsea won’t be as conservative when we meet them at their home.Are you serious?
It was as if we had nine players on the pitch. James was anonymous as always & McFred do so much similar to each other. We lose so much creativity when both are on the pitch.Big problem we have is we need McFred in there.
But neither offer even the remotest creativity.
Yet Pogba is so hard to fit in, especially as Bruno is much more effective.
It was a worthwhile experiment, but the truth is that in 90% of our games we have the majority of the ball, and he just doesn't suit that style of football.£15m now no longer looks like a bargain for Dan James.

Would have been 4 nilI miss Kepa. It would have been a comfortable win with him in goal.
Unfortunately you're right about this.Has he said why Telles isn't involved? Imagine they have all gone to stay at the Lowry. Then he says to Telles, who is living there at the moment, 'don't bother leaving your room as your not involved'.
Did you actually watch this match, nothing to be happy about apart from a decent performance from Victor.I swear this forum is never happy
They weren't happy after PSG, so can't say I'm surprised, such a miserable place these days.I swear this forum is never happy
And we will kill them. They fear us for a reason too. You shouldn't worry about the smiling. Look at the fact that he has never mentally checked out, never thrown a player under the bus, like some other "strong" managers did when managing United.Yea, Ole was smiling at the end at this result.

Describes AWB perfectly.Slow motion boring football, some of our players couldn't pass water,
.
De Gea didn't make a single save whilst Mendy made three world class ones.I agree mate. It's not like we were playing relegation fodder.
We had all of the chances pretty much and nullified them. I don't recall a clear cut chance for Chelsea.
Ffs what a crap take.Yea, Ole was smiling at the end at this result. He looked happy with it. more ambitious manager would know that this was a lost opportunity. I bet chelsea won’t be as conservative when we meet them at their home.
Blimey that's some take. Been on the cans?De Gea didn't make a single save whilst Mendy made three world class ones.
We looked solid today and on another day we win by a few.
Tactically ok against PSG but shit today I supposeWhat the feck is 'tactical inconsistency' supposed to mean?
Yeh I've been wondering that for the past 5 games though. He must be going crazy.If he doesn't start midweek, you do start to wonder why we lashed 40m out.
Someone got pasted for making a thread about it very early on, but I think they are utterly vindicated.Yeh I've been wondering that for the past 5 games though. He must be going crazy.
I just have a working set of eyes.Blimey that's some take. Been on the cans?
I just dont think we adjusted to their 3 at the back. It wasnt 3 at the back to use the spare man like we did at PSG. It was 3 at the back and fill every hole from here to the halfway line and not concede.And we weren’t? It felt like both managers were happy for a 0-0 before the game even got going.
He got the psg game right tactically and gets praised worldwide for the result. Then he comes out here today and starts daniel james. That is tactical inconsistency. I dont hate james but he has alot of improvement to do and he deserves the time to get there.. but playing him in games like this with pogba, vdb, cavani and greenwood on the bench? Actually criminal.What the feck is 'tactical inconsistency' supposed to mean?
Imo Ole went safe not to lose. At home we should be more adventurous and McTom and Fred sitting deep against a team who are leaking goals for fun was the wrong way to go. This was a game for one of those with VDB given a first start and either Telles/Greenwood or both given licence to get forward either side of Rashford first half.Was it though?
We were the better team and created the better chances against a team we're fairly evenly matched with.
I agree, I don't understand the moaning here. Mendy has 3 world class saves, Kepa would conceeded 2 goals at least. But credit to Mendy, he is man of the match.Thought it was a good performance from both teams. Solid. If Kepa was between the sticks, we'd have won.
He didn't make 3 world class saves but i understand why you're choosing to escalate their quality.I just have a working set of eyes.
Chelsea with one shot on target in 90 minutes and that was Reece James gentle free kick into the hands of DDG.
Strange take on it. United had the better chances, Mendy kept Chelsea in it with three good saves (although I'd argue the one at the death was world class but whatever). At the other end DDG didn't have a thing to do.He didn't make 3 world class saves but i understand why you're choosing to escalate their quality.
It was a dire, solid defensive game with Chelsea worse culprits than us. Let's not start pretending it was anything else.
