Yeah, I'm feeling the same way.Kind of getting used to it.
Too many performances like this, this season. We really are an awful team.

I cant for the life of me understand how professional footballers keep doing itUgh i hate those fouls against defenders facing their own goal.
Don't mourn the losses. Don't celebrate the wins. Just accept we are shiteYeah, I'm feeling the same way.

Was it 2 v 1 on the LB?For the second goal, should he just allow a 2 v 1 on the LB?
Can see him getting it for the first, but surely we should be expecting 1 of the 3 against 1 in the middle to get out, or another midfielder to make a recovery run for the second.
yeah two games in a row he is done.Eriksen has been abysmal.
Meh, I’ve yet to see much from him when he’s had a crack. The ones who do make it generally show you something (Mainoo, Garnacho, Voldemort). But as I said, he’s still better than Antony.He could be it if he gets a run in the team, only 21 and looks lively.
Was MotM. CoolI wish Gibbs-White played for us. He's a baller
He is someone that is done, never a player for an ambitous team. Last time he was averagely good was as a 10 in Spurs. Did not do anything at Milan, big fish in a small pond at Brentford for few months and stealing a living in United due to the Pep Guardiola is my idol's fetishEriksen worst player on the pitch
Yes. Because McT didn’t go to support h8m and didn’t mark the player on the edge… did what he did all second half, nothing. Awful subWas it 2 v 1 on the LB?
I just think a smarter player would check or read the danger, that there could be a player arriving where Gibbs White was. McT ended up doing nothing, he didn't affect the player with the ball or the one who received it
Maybe he was better earlier but in the time I watched him he wasted two or three good attacks passing straight to the opposition, including one that set up their winning goal.
I think Gibbs White could shag the refs wife and shoot his cat, still wouldn’t have got a second yellowThanks for the kick about fellas - best team won
That is one possibility, but it's far from the only one. Not enough coaching is another (it takes time to drill these things), also poor mentality among players, fatigue, lack of familiarity due to injuries, etc. Realistically it's probably a combination of them all.Which is indicative of poor coaching.
Even if Mainoo was injured he knows McT is not a sit-back midfield type, he's lazy in positioning, reacts late, and roams forward much. A Mainoo injury sub required something different, a change in tactics, perhaps pushing a defender into midfield, something to keep control of midfield and exploit their system. McT has proven many times he's not a CM/DM type, he's not composed and lacks the IQ required to be a competent CM/DM.Shocking again. Zero urgency until we go a goal down. Then sunday league defending. ETH has to take some flak taking of Mainoo (unless injured)
The only plus is Amad looked neat and tidy.
Be more specific, if you believe the decision was wrong, then what change should have been made, given who we have on the bench.Even if Mainoo was injured he knows McT is not a sit-back midfield type, he's lazy in positioning, reacts late, and roams forward much.

Turner was our (United) motm.Our best chance here is Turner kicking it into his own net.

Makes up for the dodgy Red we got at OT then.I think Gibbs White could shag the refs wife and shoot his cat, still wouldn’t have got a second yellow
I think he is more effective as an attacker than Dalot or AwB, why not start him? Actually put in 3 or 4 crosses too.Didnt know regullions loan was only to Jan makes no sense.
Where did the two goals come from ?, nobody tracking the runners. Why ETH thinks McT can be a defensive midfielder when for half a decade he has shown he can't play there, is beyond me.Can’t believe ETH bringing McT on at half time, absolute madness.!
I'm confused here, I was asking you what suggested alternative move you'd have made if bringing on McTominay at half time was such a bad one. Can you link me to the post in the ETH manager thread where you've explained what the better decision was?I'm no tactical master but I asked these questions in the ETH manager thread.

This is where I am as well with this team.Don't mourn the losses. Don't celebrate the wins. Just accept we are shite
OK fair enough, kudos to you for actually coming up with an alternative (most of the folks on here raging about that seem to have no idea about an alternative and just want to rant).I edited my response with the direct link.
