Anyone else annoyed by Mata not letting Fernandes take the second free kick despite it clearly being in the range for Bruno and better for a right footed taker.
In fairness Mata has been on the receiving end too. I’ve noticed this is a long standing issue for United where we just don’t let a designated taker find his range in a game and keep having players who are clearly not that efficient all fight over taking it and not letting one player settle into a rhythm or feel for taking it. Even the best players sometimes need a few goes to find their radar.
Imagine Beckham having to fight it out each time with Giggsy standing over him giving him daggers... he would be far less effective.
I hope Ole just comes out and gives Bruno the set pieces and let’s him take it come rain or shine, he’s a specialist leave him to it.
At Liverpool TAA takes them all, at City you have KDB, at Barca you have Messi etc ...
Thoughts?
