Outbreak of covid by our coaches and no players affected . If we were a well coached side all our players should have it.

The most concerning thing is we dont seem to be able to learn from previous awful performances

Poorly coached or insistance of playing, players who should be nowhere near first team? ie martial?

Rashy, greenwood and james were on fire against sociedad, so why change it to fit martial???

Martial should never start a game unless there is no one else

This is utter shite. 3 out of 4 of the worst teams in the League and United struggle against all of them. If people are not convinced how one dimensional this side is then you only have to watch all of Uniteds goals against Soceidad. All scored on the counter. Solskjaer has no Idea other than fast counter attacking football. You only have to sit deep against them and they are lost.

This - all day long - and now another goal to a set piece and could have been another. When do the Ole Apologists admit this is bad coaching?

Maybe you should watch how certain players move, their choices and execution?

We're coached to play a style of football that's effective against less than 10% of the teams.

This style would need 11 super intelligent footballers to make it work all the time and I don't think you'll find that in this sport.

In any case, it's obvious that we're not coached by the lack of decisiveness. Our players never know what to do when they have the ball, or a player near them. Just standing around waiting for lightning to strike.

What's Ole and his coaches going to say to these players at half time? Is he going to change anything? Once again we're stumbling against dog shit opposition when we should be blowing them away. Surely even the most vocal supporters of Ole can see we've major problems under him.

Oh well this was fecking predictable when the line up was made. Why Ole doesn’t change his team for games where we know teams will sit back is beyond me. We are playing a counter attacking sit back style against one of the worst teams in the league at fecking home. Says it all.

James- Shite
Matic- Shite
Martial- Shite
Fred- Shite
Lindelof-Shite

How many of our goals come from intricate patterns of play & good build up? Barely any. It’s either a fast counter when the other team has piled forward, or it’s an individual piece of magic from Bruno/Rashford/Pogba etc. We’re one of the worst coached teams in the league. The lack of organisation at the back is shambolic.

Why does Maguire always get let off? He’s just as shite.

We are clearly progressing and getting better. Hope Ed extends Ole's contract soon so he can finish what he started. Looking really promising.

We’re just bloody boring to watch most of the time, cue some individual effort from Rashford or Bruno to save our asses. Yawn, yet another shit half with absolutely no cohesion or attacking chemistry. 500m team looking like Everton on a bad day.

We seem to concede the same kind of goals all the time
Teams now attack the far post at set pieces
It’s not rocket science for the coaches to fix this
I really don’t know what they are doing, it is utterly ridiculous
We should be able to win games 1-0 without playing well

Why are so we bad at clearing the ball and defending our box from set pieces? Who is our defensive coach? Ole might actually get somewhere with proper coaches next to him.

I swear the amount of time the right flank was available but kept being ignored and the ball goes to the left where its congested. We know James and AWB are not best attacking players but we need to use them if they're on the pitch.

Badly set up and a lack of creativity again. To play James without an out and out striker is so wrong.
Just one bit of decent Rashford play and we couldnt build on it.
We lack an identity against lower placed teams once again.

Because defending set pieces actually needs coaching.

He isn't a bad player but easily one of the dumbest I've ever seen in a Manchester United shirt.
I don’t see much difference between him & Phil Jones other than his fitness record honestly. He’s a front runner for worst piece of business we’ve done in my lifetime. Not only was he a massive waste of money, but his transfer fee & the armband have made him undroppable & unsellable. He’s going to cause years of damage starting every week here. Thick as pig shit, you’re right. We’ll never win anything with him starting.

I’m getting to that feeling of despair again with this side. Love ole for what he’s done here and I still think I’ve enjoyed his tenure the most after Fergie but we are going backwards and that’s just not good enough at the moment.

Just not improving and no signs of the team becoming more assured and confident together as a group.

It’s really worrying and I am concerned how long some want to give the manager. It’s a complete punt based on little evidence that he can actually coach players at this level.

I so want him to do well, but I just can’t see the what style we are trying to achieve.

Can't understand hammering of ole and hammering of the only players he has available to him

In desperation the narrative shifted earlier in the season that ole should win the league with this group

Today we has the 3 players we have up front and 3 academy players on the bench as cover, no options in centre mid bar tuanzebe, it amazing how quickly the team is down to bare bones

Obviously we shouldn't be going through this patch of bad form every few months but amazing how fast the narrative is shifting around our players. We so badly need to add quality on several positions

This league is pretty shite when a United team that cannot even beat 3 out of 4 of the poorest teams in the League and they still sit 3rd. And if they manage a goal against this utter crap Newcastle team theyre the 2nd best team in the League. How mad is that. Add in to that a Moyes team is now 4th and you can see how piss poor this League is.

Maybe tell them to start earning their ridiculous wages instead of getting shown up by players they are supposedly better than. They can't hide behind 'coaching' when it's basics they are failing at.

And we already knew about that since LVG told us that Ole is a counter attacking manager 2 years ago. He was right. Ole is shit at organising a defence, organising both in attacking & defending set pieces, creating chances in open play etc. Only thing he knows is sit deep and counter. Pure underdog style.

We still have Bruno, Rashford, Martial, Fred, Shaw and an 80 million captain on the pitch.

Newcastle have Shelvey, Hayden and a striker who has scored 1 goal in his last 18 games.

Sop making excuses about the squad. Half of this back 4 is Solsjaers number 1 choices. Maguire looks like he's not worth 80pence let alone 80million. It's scandalous how bad we are at defending.

That's my question though, what exactly is he saying motivate them? Ever since there's been a mention of us going for the title we've completely capitulated.
