I hear you. My entire week has been like this. You just know when something seems off and nothing adds up. A mixed bag of inconsistencies and questions.Something’s not right.

Nothing to do with tactics. Just on a Straight player swap with lindelof even with the same tactics we look worse at the backVarane alone was never going to suddenly make our other massive tactical shortcomings disappear.
Yeah that was a strange one. The problem wasn't "forwards not finishing the chances they got", the problem was creating any kind of real chances in the first place. And of course, as is standard, the change came far, far too late to really be meaningful. Just another one in a long string of really bad substitutions.I hated that McTominay for Cavani substitute when it was made.
It wasn't. The poster said they were happy we missed as we didn't deserve to win based on the performance.I’m definitely not happy we missed the penalty but I understand the sentiment about it not papering over the cracks. I think that’s maybe what they were suggesting. Sometimes you need to take your medicine.
From what everybody was saying AWB did well. We have seen problems with McFred before and their limitations.Sorry mate but if there was one player that didn’t deserve to lose on that pitch it was AWB. He’s been dodgy recently but he played well today. Ran well, passed well, was composed, played some great through balls. I thought his best game in a long long while. Agree with comments on McFred though. They have their uses but it’s not at home against Villa.
Actually think Ole could make a good DoF but sadly he's a mediocre manager.Quite right. Two different skill sets. Ole had one.
No. The police for having to police a concert at the cricket ground by The Courteeners later today.Was the scheduling the EPL' s way of helping us in Europe?
I don't read the media. Do you also read the bible? Would be funny to know where you'd find more lies and bullshit. Fair would be a draw. I don't know how many shots we had, but it was above 20. Yes, most was Greenwood missing, but still. And we had at two chances that should have produced something. Oh, and a penalty. Why Ronaldo didn't take that.. Well, who knows. All i know, he'd score.Undeserved? Seriously? If you can find a single media outlet who doesn’t give Villa full credit for a deserved result I’ll eat my own bum.
It’s far too early to be that drunk.
Aston Villa had one shot before the 85th minute in the second half. Just one!I must have watched a different game to you. We were never on top.
My comments or the game!?That's just absurd.
Stale thongs sounds nasty
Shouldn't have been wanting Bruno to miss. I was beginning to feel a bit of relief that we might salvage something. Silly me.It wasn't. The poster said they were happy we missed as we didn't deserve to win based on the performance.
Regardless of whether or not the team has had a bad day supporters should still want them to score. It's bizarre.
Right. What has that got to do with United dominating midfield and pressuring them? We weren’t. They may have had more shots before then if one of their players didn’t fall on his face when he was on his own in our box.Aston Villa had one shot before the 85th minute in the second half. Just one!
United in the second half were never in danger of losing the match.
Chow.No. The police for having to police a concert at the cricket ground by The Courteeners later today.
Your comments. Totally over the top.My comments or the game!?
"Supporter" doesn't want his team to score... Makes senseNope, I shouldn't go support someone else, this has nothing to do with Ole, just good old justice. Tired of watching constant shit and us getting away with it.
Nothing strange, I just like that we get what we deserve, tired of getting points through lucky bullshit.
Nope, nothing mental about that idiot mate, I have nothing against Ole like many do, this isn't me hoping we lose every game so manager leave, I just like that we get what we deserve, tired of bullshit, cheerio.
Oh fantastic, the "I will twist your words and meaning" brigade is out.
Yes what I always find strange. Obviously dotn know what goes on on the sidelines and the job they are doing. But whenever the camera goes to Carrick or McKenna, they both just look vacant half the time, hand on chin or dumbfounded.I liked Ole a lot as a player. He seems a great guy. I wanted him to have time. But enough. Too much old boys club. Dreadfully weak support staff, coaches, etc. Phelan! Ole should resign, or get the boot, with immediate effect. Sorry, Ole. It’s over.
Oof… that hurts to hear. It hurts cuz it’s true sighWe are beaten by a well coached team mate so I am not worried too much
Yes, because fluffing Ronaldo's stats should be an important consideration, we have all those so important GOAT debates to continue.Should have let Ronaldo take the penalty so that he can continue his consecutive goal scoring record.
Plus Ronaldo is the captain of Portugal.
It was a 3.00 p.m kick off anyway and we don't play until Wednesday, so still plenty of time to prepare.Chow.
Yes, because everything is black and white like that, amazing thought process there, keep it up."Supporter" doesn't want his team to score... Makes sense
Yup, I even had a glimmer of hope we still had time to get the winner...Thoroughly depressingShouldn't have been wanting Bruno to miss. I was beginning to feel a bit of relief that we might salvage something. Silly me.
Nope, genuinely one of the worst games of football I can recall being inside OT for.Your comments. Totally over the top.
We accumulated a lot of xG by shot volume, but the problems become obvious when you look further. Only 0.26 of our xG from shots were on target and we had 13/28 of our shots blocked! Villa had 1/7 shots blocked.Ok, so, something in the way of statistics.
We had 28 shots, 4 on target
They had 7 shots, 3 on target
Our xG came to 1.93, theirs was 1.57
Keep in, however, that every shot adds to xG score, so we're 1.93 from 28 shots and they were 1.57 from only 7. It might look as though xG favours us, but it actually confirms that their efforts on goal were more qualitative and ours more quantitive. 1.93 xG from 28 shots is terrible. Bad.
One interesting stat is that whilst attacking them, they allowed us 6.28 passes on average before they executed either a press or a tackle. In contrast we allowed them 9.41 passes on average before we executed either a press or a tackle. In other words we're a lot less aggressive and active in our front foot pressing than they are.
United - Villa xG performance
It is black and white. Find someone else who agrees with you and come back to me.Yes, because everything is black and white like that, amazing thought process there, keep it up.
What was the reaction of the fans at the end?Nope, genuinely one of the worst games of football I can recall being inside OT for.
My section were literally laughing at the standard of football at times. There were points where us and Villa were just passing the ball back and forth between us.
What were the redeeming features of the game? Where were the moments of actual quality?
What the feck does that matter? Despite the best efforts of a large part of the fan base to convince themselves we were complete shite and were outplayed, the fact is Villa had 3 shots on goal all game. We dominated this game, and did not deserve to lose it. Attacking coherence left something to be desired, but we created several big chances, more than enough that we should have scored. Bruno missed a penalty. Greenwood was too selfish on a few occasions. But the way some people here are talking, you'd think we were overrun for large parts of the game and failed to get a shot on goal. It's just completely over the top. Gutted though I am by the result.Right. What has that got to do with United dominating midfield and pressuring them? We weren’t. They may have had more shots before then if one of their players didn’t fall on his face when he was on his own in our box.
Was my first game there for a while so I was very excited, my section were surprisingly patient.Nope, genuinely one of the worst games of football I can recall being inside OT for.
