Kick off 3U19s: #MUFC v Basel (A) - Fojticek, O’Connor, Ercolani, Warren, R. Williams, Tanner, Garner, Hamilton, Gomes, Boonen, Bohui. Subs: Carney, Barrett, Kenyon, Galbraith, Sang, Baars, Burkart. #UYL

 

[Theatre of dreams]

U19s just gone 1-0 down. Honestly worst they’ve played this season. 30 min left.

Now 2-0 down after giving away a peno. The older players Hamilton, Sang, Ercolani, Tanner have really let the younger ones down!
Just pulled one back from a corner Tyrell Warren the scorer.

Hearing pitch is dreadful tonight. Main objective is to avoid injuries

Yeah seen a few tweets going round about it. Even Mourinho mentions it in his presser. Wouldn’t take any risks! u19s finished 2-1 btw. Sang and Hamilton want getting rid of ASAP!

Could of had 5 and not even got out of second gear. Just missing the goal from a good performance so far.

 

[hughesman]

Blind has been poor tonight

Blind has been poor tonight

And Darmian. As good as we were first half. We have been very poor and complacent this second half. Really disappointed tbh!

 

[Theatre of dreams]

We deserved that for this second half!

 

[Vanjagl]

Well deserved for Basel. Terrible, terrible second half. No one half arsed.

 

[Theatre of dreams]

Can’t afford to rest anyone for the last game now. That performance has really irked me. Nobody showed anything in the second half. No desire, Commitment, Effort nothing!

On to Brighton

You're still guaranteed qualification though, you won the H2H with Basel.

EDIT: Scratch that... there's a small chance there could actually be a three-way tie, in which case GD will be the tie-breaker.

Least Blind admits he cocked up for the goal. Him and Darmian should be gone in the Summer.

To be fair Blind just isn't a LB. Yes he can do a job there with his defensive nous, but just don't think it's his naturally best position. Best centrally. Too immobile. Whilst we could blame Blind, why does Jose not throw Luke Shaw into this game tonight? What better opportunity does Jose see better than this to reintegrate a player?

Think we can forget about Shaw having any sort of career at Utd. Been fit for ages. Hardly making the bench or playing at all. And now not even playing for the u23s either. FB area needs sorting this SUMMER priority imo. Then CM. Yeah agree Blinds not a LB but he’s played there enough and experienced enough not to let that happen to him. Rojo my only positive tonight overall.

Get Fabinho, 2 birds.

Would be happy with that. Tony V is on his last legs. And he’s good in CM as well. LB is more urgent than RB for me.

 

[Average Joe]

Yeah think United need to do a City and go flat out and freshen the defense up soonblind

Would probably keep Blind because of his versatility but wouldn't have him as main starter. Players like him are always useful.

Not sure who you could go for at left back really

Would not mind Rose, Bertrand, Gaya, Aaron. Ghoulam but he’s just got a major injury. Wouldn’t keep Blind. Don’t need his versatility tbh Young can fill in at LB. And Jose doesn’t play Blind at CB or DM/ CM. Cash in I say same for Darmian. And Fellaini if he’s refusing the contractor we’ve offered him. Give more game time to Tuanzebe, Perriera, TFM. Then strengthen with some more quality in CM and Attack after sorting out LB.
