The Manchester United Thread

Mata, what the **** was he thinking? Also, can someone please tell me what the **** Lingaard brings to the team? he does nothing really. Also Carrick has been woeful so far today

Idk why LVG would break a winning team by swapping Carrick for Schneiderlin.

Schneiderlin was starting to be real good in his last few games and what does he do? Takes him out of the team as well as Memphis.

Just when players start to get some games under their belt and start playing with some good form, he ****** benches them, I don't get it.
 
He is. It is. But it still doesn't excuse Mata. He's an experienced older head FFS. Ridiculous.

Doesn't excuse him. But to send player off in 3 minutes, you really need to do something special. It was dumb challenge, but easily Dean could have forgive it, since you know, it wasn't that dangerous and as a ref, you never want to influence the game. And he kinda did. In some weird world where we all follow the rules, it's a yellow. But since we don't live there, I would never give player second yellow for that.

Don't really rate Dean as a ref, but this time it was Mata who was a glorious idiot. What the **** was he thinking?

He wasn't thinking is my guess.

It's ridiculous, I thought that Morgan had played fantastically well recently with plenty of blocks, tackles interceptions and he looked dangerous in attack Memphis looked like he was getting some confidence back and then he goes and benches t
them both. Joke.
 
Yup, Dean should've simply forgiven it. Neither of those plays were even remotely dangerous and they happened within the span of few minutes. Follow spirit of the law not just the letters and all that.

But that doesn't excuse Mata's idiocy.

Only thing I'm thinking is perhaps he is resting them and saving them for the Europa League, which would be stupid anyway because for me the priority is the PL for top 4 finish again as it's on.

He can't 'forgive it' or he get's marked down and probably demoted. They took that leeway out of refs hands years back. He's following the rules. It is what is today and everyone knows it.

The first was a clear booking for stopping the quick free kick. The second was a reckless swing of the leg when you're on a booking that's only bringing one thing. Idiocy is certainly the word.
 
Count yourselves lucky your playing west brom. 10 or 11 men doesnt matter, the tactics are still lump it long.

Lol. Yup, Pulilisian football. Limited **** only knows one way of playing. Praise the Lord that's a VERY dying breed the top level.
 
That's where Mata really costs you.

Tight game like this he'd of been the one behind that free kick the edge of the box just there like last time out against Watford.

No point playing Schneiderlin when WBA are just going to hoof it over him.
 
Sigh. Just when we get a few good results we undo with a result like this. Sums up this season and it's not good enough.
 
I'm not knocking the lad but why the **** is rashford still on the pitch and not Memphis. He should have been off after an hour coz he's done nothing. Memphis has started playing well and personally I would have started him over Lingard but after an hour Memphis should have been on for rashford. And why the **** do u take Herrera off for schneiderlin when we have no Mata on the pitch? So now we have 2 holding midfielder and nobody capable of going forward into the hole. Carrick should have gone off for schneiderlin. Actually Carrick shouldn't have even started over schneiderlin.

Always one step forward and 3 steps back with LVG. I really don't understand some of his selections and substitutions

Telling yer. The battle for third/ fourth is going all the way between anyone up there not currently in first and second.
 
Wtf are we doing? 1 man vs 5 in their box in open play, ****** go for it now we have nothing to lose.
 
These substitutions make literally no sense, apart from the Memphis for Rashford.

We are losing and we take off Herrera for Scheniderlin... should of been Schneiderlin for Carrick from the start of the ****** game.

Now he's bringing on Fosu-Mensah, what the ****.
 
1-0 down and playing like we are 2-0 up, no urgency no passion. LVG may have had a good week, but I think we (or myself at least) allowed the 3 wins to give us some hope of change, but two of those games were against teams we should of waled over anyway and Arsenal are in ***** form. The watford win was luck and here we are again in the same position as a few weeks ago.
 
Our plan this half has been absolutely stupid, hoof the ball up to Martial and hope for what?

All we've ****** done this half is accept we're going to lose and we were second best with 11 men as well so I'm not surprised.

****** dire, go out with a bang not without even trying.
 
You geniuses did notice that Darmian was so tired he was breathing through his armpits?
