Did you watch the Thursday match? It's like it did not happen here.Weve mainly only been winning like this the last two years..

He played decently, and has done for a couple of games now. Works his socks off defensively too. His crossing needs some work, but he's a naturally a Left winger and Tony could have done better on a few of his crosses. We also attacked more from Rashy and Shaw's side.Because James was no threat at all (cue the but he scored comments) until a lucky deflection left him 8 yards one on one
He’s a smaller weaker less productive Valencia, runs down blind dead ends and can’t cross past the first man
Very telling indeed. Truth is, we weren’t horrible in the first half. Yes, a few players did suffer a few mental lapses but the outcome of the match was never in any doubt.The Caf is such a sad place. So much negativity. Even when we win easily and have 70% possession, most people are posting negative crap.
so telling that the post match comments are 6 pages in a win and 19 in a loss...
I don't even bother mentioning Ole considering dropping underperforming players because he just closes his ears to the idea of doing thatDid well after we got the second, scrappy before that, though. We need to stop giving underperforming players important minutes, but at least we can enjoy a win. Good results in other matches for us as well.
I mean, isn't that what football is about? Scoring goals?I mean, is this supposed to be a serious argument? So if he scores one fecking goal out of nowhere, him being shit for 99.9% of the game is fine?
Been watching Liverpool again?nice dive for the pen
I would but can't help feeling gutted how we lost crucial ground in the games against Sheff Utd, Everton & WBAComfortable home win which hasn't happened enough this season.
with 13 games to play 2nd in table, 6 points ahead of Chelsea in 5th and 9 points ahead of Liverpool in 6th i think most United fans would have taken that before this season that started.
Do you not think we need to cut down conceding so many sloppy goals first because 32 is not acceptable for a team 2nd in the leagueMental that we are top scorers in the league and have been banging them in across Europe too.....playing with basically a man down up front all season with Martial playing.
Can't get my head around it. Just keep thinking if we had a real talent in his place we be still in Europe and prob neck and neck with city.
Should be main priority during next transfer to bring in real quality up front to start games.
I think we should keep him around as a squad player for a couple of years. If he makes it brill, but if not it’s win win as we can sell him for a profit and he gets developed. We saw what happened with LingaardDan James an option on the right. How dare he score when he's clearly no good?!
I was extremely critical of him earlier in the season. Ole did the right thing taking him out of the spotlight for a bit, it seems.Just shows maybe we all needed to be a bit patient with Dan James.
Yeah maybe we can get some cash for Jesse in the summer if he keeps on performing well for West Ham, however if they want him that bad then Rice should be brought up in the conversation too.I think we should keep him around as a squad player for a couple of years.

Wish he would do it with TonyI was extremely critical of him earlier in the season. Ole did the right thing taking him out of the spotlight for a bit, it seems.
IMO the blame mostly lies on DDG. he should have come for the cross (but we all know he won't) and also should have saved the shot.Just seen the replay of the Newcastle goal. Maguire should have headed the ball out of play. It seems he just throws his head at the ball and hopes for the best.
He's a terrible header of the ball.
That would be an ideal scenario. I’d take a 50mil + Jesse deal for RiceYeah maybe we can get some cash for Jesse in the summer if he keeps on performing well for West Ham, however if they want him that bad then Rice should be brought up in the conversation too.
That's the way a season goes, some games you are expected to win you drop points in. It even happened during the day's of Fergusons.I would but can't help feeling gutted how we lost crucial ground in the games against Sheff Utd, Everton & WBA
He stepped on his boot. Love our 'fans' sometimes. The way this place is even getting tiresome after wins, which is fecking brutal.Been watching Liverpool again?
Because rashford certainly did NOT dive in this game.
I’d advise not going into the OGS discussion now re branded as the “Ole out” discussionThe Caf is such a sad place. So much negativity. Even when we win easily and have 70% possession, most people are posting negative crap.

I don’t know how anyone could say that after the 1st 45 minsI felt comfortable all match, looked like a game we were always going to win.
Agree. We did not presented too many gaps in 1st half apart from Maguire's soft "assist". It was newcastle's effort that caused us problem, predictably after European games. It was a much improvement compared with Sheffield and WBA game, in terms of concentration and effort.Very telling indeed. Truth is, we weren’t horrible in the first half. Yes, a few players did suffer a few mental lapses but the outcome of the match was never in any doubt.
Because a more effective player could have led us to scoring more. It was dumb luck how the goal came about so the % of us having successful attacks drops if we are relying on luck. He didn’t beat his first man almost at all I think one he chipped in.He played decently, and has done for a couple of games now. Works his socks off defensively too. His crossing needs some work, but he's a naturally a Left winger and Tony could have done better on a few of his crosses. We also attacked more from Rashy and Shaw's side.
And what do you mean, but he scored? That's the bloody point of the game, and what we struggled to do against the likes of SHU and WBA. Not to mention we were 1-1, and the goal changed the dynamic of our play. Also you make it seem like it was some dumb luck goal.. It was still a good finish.

Then times he didn’t run blindly to the corner he ran blindly into the centre so we were easy to defend against.
Don’t get me wrong martial was much worse, having them two in the same starting 11 was the death of our goal threat (see wba match)
I had the same convo regarding lingard “but he works his socks off”, he may do but ultimately that’s not enough
Did you watch the game?! He put about four out of play.Please see his pass Thursday night. He has some passing issues at times, but why is everyone so over the top?
You’re clueless about footballIf you do not vote Matic as motm then you are clueless about football
Why can't we make simple square passes and score simple tap ins in the box. Game is done and for the last 15 min we overcomplicate things
James was awful apart from the goal. Many poor decisions and not a single good cross
That is why I am surprised he has left Martial in the firing line. He needs to be taken out as well.I was extremely critical of him earlier in the season. Ole did the right thing taking him out of the spotlight for a bit, it seems.

Not sure about MOTM as he started really poorly first half, but I agree in the second half Matic was very good. Fred had a really off day so it was vital that Matic got his passing right and in the second half he played some lovely passes between the lines.If you do not vote Matic as motm then you are clueless about football
