Sky are right in what they say, all this chat about the penalty is a distraction from the performance.
It was more of a must win for Chelsea than us though, not enough being said about them not taking their chances and taking it to us more.Sky are right in what they say, all this chat about the penalty is a distraction from the performance.
He's gone a bit LvG without the possession. The Leicester game when we were starting to look good, then he went all cautious. The sending off in the Spurs game did not help there. He just seems intent on us being a counter attacking side. To do that you cannot be wasteful with your possession. We are. Just wish Pogba was back and we had Cavani as an option.Since that Spurs result we've played like a scared team against the top 6. Four 0-0 draws in a row is fecking shocking.
Seriously. This forum. If you can't tell the difference between Mourinho United and this, then it's really hard to know where to even begin. When did you see a Mourinho team carry out a high press like that?I thought we were promised something different when Jose went. Ole is basically utilising the same tactics and won't even take risks with a 4-0 lead against an average team. It's cowardly and not what we're about.
Very true, at home too. We know we are lacking that edge in these games, that is the step we need to take, made all the harder without the experience and quality of Pogba and Cavani.It was more of a must win for Chelsea than us though, not enough being said about them not taking their chances and taking it to us more.
We are taking a leaf from Klopps book. He deflected attention from Liverpool losing against S'ton with "they get more penalties then me". Nobody talked about that game, everybody was on about our penalties.Sky are right in what they say, all this chat about the penalty is a distraction from the performance.
Next big game we will win!!One day, many years from now, we may score from open play against one of other “top 6”
That was bizarre.It was more of a must win for Chelsea than us though, not enough being said about them not taking their chances and taking it to us more.
Have people not worked this out yet - if we start with McFred and James then we’re aiming not to lose, no more.Mourinho’s nice guy twin
We won’t win any of them. LDDD. We may finally nick a goal or two though.Four 'big' games left in the season, at the business end of things it would be great to see us get some players back and take more than 4 points.
City
Tottenham
Liverpool
Leicester
We will win one or two, christ guys were not a bad side.We won’t win any of them. LDDD. We may finally nick a goal or two though.
I admire your optimism.We will win one or two, christ guys were not a bad side.
no one cares about Chelsea that's whyThat was bizarre.
Utd getting criticised for being negative, Chelsea were the home side and needed the 3 points much more than we did and yet nothing was said about them
Yet when we perform well and get penalties to win, all the chat is about the penalties and not about our perfomance.Sky are right in what they say, all this chat about the penalty is a distraction from the performance.
Yeah contrast that to Tuchel taking off Hudson-Odoi after he was a substitute in the second half. Incredible difference. Bruno could've got injured. What then? Same with Rashford who's knackered. You can't just give in to players cos they want to play every game. You need to be strong and do what's best for the team. And if you know everyone is tired why do you never substitute anyone?Lack of quality again in the final third again. Should have been a penalty and we defended well enough to come away with all the points after the poor decision by the ref, not even VARs fault.
Rashford a concern he is either knackered or he has an attitude issue.
He is simply way off the pace and his lack of effort is an issue.
Bruno again looks like he is running on empty and is clearly tired.
Bruno scoring goals has been masking over his overall contribution attacking wise for a good number of weeks
Why give him 45mins on Thursday?
I can imagine Bruno is refusing to miss games and is saying he's fine and Ole is succumbing to his wishes because he is to scared off upsetting him.
If that was any other more experienced manager this situation would not be happening.
Bigly.I think Pogba’s absence is being felt this past couple of weeks.
Agreed, don't think it's a coincidence results are suddenly worse.I think Pogba’s absence is being felt this past couple of weeks.
Indeed, as always, you love to see it!What a shower of drama queens in here.
I wanted them to win and think they could have won, but the midfield he had to put out really didn't help. Fred and Scott work hard, but that is all they are. We miss Pogba badly, Bruno misses having Pobga there. We didn't have Cavani, Martial is completely out of form. We therefore had a kid leading the line. The really didn't cause us that much trouble and we caused them about the same. If we had got that penalty we might have all been celebrating a great three points, instead of a good one point.Ole is dedicating this draw to Ed and Joel Glazer. No point risking top 4 so let’s take the point and be rewarded with a whopping £70 million transfer budget in the summer.
Well said.Yet when we perform well and get penalties to win, all the chat is about the penalties and not about our perfomance.
TV punditry is so full of crap.
