Should never be the reason! We can’t possibly fall that badly off the cliff because of one player that ironically only started playing for the club. We have been horrible at being resourceful and using the strength of the squad.
Dalot as RB and Telles LB. Lindelof starts. You just have to wonder what the fck is going on in their heads. Ralf is there for the game. I hope he waves Carrick and Phelan out the door after the game.
I don't see Dalot as a right back in a back four myself. Maybe he's doing something innovative and playing McTominay as a centre half in the middle of a back three/five? Although probably not tbh. Way too left side thinking for Mr Carrick and Phelan that.
Looking at both teams, it seems both managers are playing for the second half. Expecting a tight first half and then a couple of subs after to get some fresh legs on and do some damage. I might be wrong and the counter attack he's set us up with might get goals. But I still think it's doing it the hard way.
I can't really fathom why Sancho and Rashford are playing on each others good side, and their own bad side?
I was thinking the same. McFred **** as always. As expected we are pinned back And yes, there's no reason not to give that goal.
Playing Fred, we get everything we deserve. He's done fck all but give the ball away and the fact it was him who injured De Gea is no surprise.
Like I said, doing things the hard way. We're actually playing better after the goal, except the final third is ****. All it needed was DVB instead of Fred and played a 4-3-3.
Creativity is stifled in the midfield, I think. Bruno is not effective alone with Fred and McTominay. That’s the Pogba hole that Donny could have fulfilled. Or even Lingard.
Fred is an absolute fcking liability. I can't remember a player in a United shirt I had this much contempt for.
Good question, already been asked. Answer is, who knows? I think this is Carrock trying to show he's thinking about stuff. It's just made up nonsense to be honest. Both Rashford and Ronaldo are gravitating left so those two and Sancho are out there at times. Sancho plays on THE RIGHT HAND SIDE. Then, Mr Carrick, decide which one of Rashford or Ronaldo plays left, and which through the middle. ****ing sort it.
Well now we know who was picking the tactics all season. Sancho and Rashford may as well be sat on the bench for all the good they are where they are playing (again). 10 to 15 mins in it was obvious Fred is having a total nightmare, should have been off then for Donny (yes he was involved in the goal but that means **** all) If they come out for the second half set up the same i may just turn it off and never bother again (until Ralf takes over proper )
Yep I said the same before. It's clear he was as much to blame for the tactics as Ole. Get him out. And yep, Rashford and Sancho being played there before through the season so far. It's absolute bollox. Like handicapping two of your best players. And yep, Fred... ah fck it agree with it all
