Young did quite well except his deliveries which was nice to see, but Fred, Jesus Christ!
Here’s what I can’t get my head around is why I could see how poor of a footballer he was before we signed him and yet our highly paid and allegedly skilled scouting network spunked £52million on him and how he lasted 90 minutes tonight is beyond me.
The only player anywhere near as bad as him tonight was Lingard. Atrocious performance, bordering on disgusting. Ole was too slow with the changes tonight and made the wrong choices for me, it happens.
First half I thought we controlled the game, had them contained and created a few openings, second half our performance levels dropped and we got punished.
Anyway you look at it, at home with no shots on target, doesn’t matter if you are playing city, Barca or Blyth Spartans. If you don’t get a shot on target then you probably won’t win the game.
Not good enough, I can name 8 players I’d get rid of this summer.
