- Can anyone explain to me what Blind was doing on the fourth goal? Forget the first one, which was his fault but at least also required De Gea to have some kind of meltdown. Just watch the fourth one and keep an eye on him. WHAT is he doing? The goal happens entirely because of him. He does this sort of thing all the time to the point he's just a liability against any team with decent players and any clue tactically. It is like he has no brain funcitonality beyond that of a pet dog. He'll just chase after whatever object is nearest to him. Then when the object is gone or stops running he stands there looking confused. He ran off up the pitch so far he literally disappeared off the screen. He was playing at centreback annd he disappeared off the screen running AWAY from our goal, while the opposition team was kicking the ball into it.
- WHY did Mourinho move Blind to centreback and Rojo to full back when Bailly was injured? When these two players were signed Rojo was a centreback and Blind was a leftback/midfielder, both looked competent in these roles and the ONLY reason their roles changed round is literally because LVG woke up one morning and decided Blind was a centreback now. So now it has to stay that way forever, regardless of it meaning that both play like clowns? Just because LVG decided it?
- Can someone also explain to me what Fellaini's role was today? He spent the first half stood on the right wing doing feck all of use to anyone. He was literally just there, doing nothing. What was he doing there? How did he think he was going to effect the game from this position? Was he trying to counter the aerial threat of the linesman? I don't get it...so either he was told to play there, or because we conceded a goal after 1 minute he (or someone) thought it was ok to just completely abandon his midfield position and the entire team's set up/shape? How were we expecting to win the game from a goal down by having our holding midfielder stand on the right wing doing nothing? WHY did it take until half time for this to be sorted out? It was obvious it needed sorting out after LESS than 10 minutes. Just tell him to get a fecking grip and do his job or sub him off.
- I would like to see one of those video compilations of all touches of the ball Zlatan has had in his last 5 games. If you dressed Fellaini up as a pirate, stuck Zlatan's shirt on him and played him up front, no one would tell the difference. Sorry but if you make a deal out of dropping your captain because he isn't playing well enough, you can't keep picking someone who's playing consistently worse just because THEY think they're the bollocks. He also seemed to think losing 4-0 was funny or something to joke about after the game...but because he's Zlatan it's ok? It isn't. He's a cock and his performances are a million fecking miles from good enough. Rashford looked very good as a striker last season and now is being shoved out to the wing where he's ineffective to incorporate someone who goes entire games doing feck all. Not happy at all.
- We've played Pogba in this advanced midfield role people bang on about us needing to use him in 4 times now, and he's been shite each time, and whoever's played in midfield as a result of moving him has allso looked shite. What is the benefit of doing this again?
Pathetic performance really. Herrera can hold his head up and Valencia was ok, and maybe Bailly or Mata when he came on, but the rest were between poor and completely pathetic. It doesn't matter if we had a game in the week, or if Chelsea have good players. There's ways to be beaten and that wasn't it. That was an embarassment. We lost the game after 30 seconds because we went to pieces based on one goal, which was our own doing in the first place.
