A massive insult to Fellaini that, he's looked more like Obertan on a bad day
Manchester United vs Rayo Vallecano (Sun 31st July, 16:00 UK time) | Happy King (Bebe) Day

Prob the most over dramatic post I've read in a long time.
United total heel club against women
Not even a tiny bit.
Worse than average I assume
Laird is rapid too
Garnacho reminds me of Rashford on a good day
Can Martinez play as CDM? He looks tiny for a cb but very composed with the ball.
Garnacho a huge talent with great potential has totally overshadowed Ronaldos return in that half. Garner impressive also
Chong isn't going to make it as United players is he?

Chong should be sold to back to a Dutch club, no future here even he is left footed. Hasn't improve for so many years, probably only suitable for Tier 2 or 3 club.
Yesterday Elanga, Today Chong
Garnacho outstanding
Laird decent but let down by Chong who has been awful
Martinez composed
Ronaldo's link up has been poor
Eriksen / DVB axis hasn't really clicked
Garner decent
All in all a pretty quiet half, unsurprising given the players missing from yesterday. But Garnacho has proven he is first team ready.

Because we don't have other pure CDMs, Garner stays.Chong needs to go. Unsure of Garner.
Garnacho is just class.
Chong, done with him.
Garnacho is definitely in that league of being the real deal.
Martinez looks calm on the ball and good at the back. Looks like a good signing.
Well yeah, he's been another debatable United signing. Think Madrid saw Ed coming with that one.
Ah the Chong thread
Chong is 22?! Jesus.
Can't help yourself can you?
That's a good shout, he looks ahead of Elanga. Looks good at the press also
Lanky doodles like Chong rarely make it. Falls over at every single challenge. Don't like that kind of footballer at all. Zero strenght. Not to mention the shit decision making today.
Mindlessly running in pretty much a straight line?
Just helping the manCan't help yourself can you?
Laird proving why he wasn't successful at Bournemouth. Another overhyped youngster with no future.
Garner has looked clueless but I have a bit of hope that he can still be coached by EtH.
It's a disjointed team but Ronaldo's inclusion has a direct impact on our ability to press.

We should try it at least. Elanga has had a horrible pre season so far.
They aren't going to shag you mate.
his technique is championship level.
Spot on comparison. Hopefully we tie him up to a new deal asap. Would be absolutely gutted if we lose him on a free.
Garnacho is absolutely immense. Something special there. Sky is the limit for me. DVB been ok - competent performance. Still don’t know what he offers other than just being a player that keeps things ticking, but maybe that’s it. Just quietly keeps things going. Ronaldo has contributed beautifully to build up play - two really lovely through balls to the left wing in particular with power, pace and precision. Eriksen played one of the best passes I’ve seen in this half - he’s going to have a wonderful career with us. No doubt. Looks like the Eriksen of old.
Chong… abysmal. Why are some of you so excited by him? Every time he gets a chance there’s nothing there in terms of brains and technicality. He has a lot of heart but he’s not good enough.

As shit as Chong was in the the first half, I'd like to see EtH give him another 15 minutes. I don't think he has it, but a few more minutes to prove himself would be worth it.
Excuse me ?
Playing like the movie star Chong.
I don't like to overhype our talents but given the squad quality at the moment, Garnacho looks ready to contribute to the first team this season. He can dribble with pace and purpose, and that alone is something that this team needs more of.
First half thoughts:
- Really like the look of Garnacho.
- Chong has not been great.
- Martinez looks class

Goodness me, Wes should not be a pundit. Bless him.
Bless him.This is the least Ten Hag ball we've seen throughout the entirety of this pre season.
No energy, no tempo, no control.

He has been nice and bright with more contructive and positive touches in that half than in the rest of the pre-season combined. Also been quite active in the press and in getting his foot in. Rayo have had more of the ball but some of the quick ball movement between Ronnie, Donny, Garnacho and Eriksen has been rather decent.
No control, but you have a lot of kids and Garner.
Decent half, Garancho the stand out, Lisandro looks classy but most of the attacks have come down the opposite side so little for him to do defensively. Eriksen needs the fitness.
What was the game where Fred kicked it out of bounds twice from midfield just shanking it right?
Garnocho on the left.
Sancho on the right.
Sancho on the right.
Our CBs are 20 yards deeper than they have been all pre-season, we have no control, there are gaps between the lines, we’re pressing in isolation with zero intensity and aren’t sustaining attacks as a result. The only threat is give the ball to Garnacho and have him do some individual magic. It’s last season again. What’s changed?
Team has been poor collectively but individually Martinez looks very composed, Garner has tried to put himself about and Garnacho looks a fecking star once he sorts out his decision making.
Fav moment of the half was Chong putting his arm out for Ronaldo to run and press and Ronaldo just staring at him like that’s not we do here. Top stuff.

I really hope we can provide EtH with the players he needs to make this work because you can already see the coaching working, it's just the execution that's letting us down at the moment because of the limitations some of our squad have. Really looking forward to the season though because even with the mistakes I'm enjoying the football we're trying to play and it feels like there could be something there if we get other parts of the club in order too.
