Really need a better CB partnership than Jones and Smalling, we'll get torn a new one against better teams in CL with that.

Need Bailly back badly and where the **** has Lindelof gone? He was playing quite well and then suddenly seems to of fell off the radar totally.

That's Jones and Smalling making costly mistakes in two games now and one of them should of been dropped for Lindelof imo.

Yeah agree. Both good on there day. But have mistakes in them especially Smalling. Will see Lindelöf more in the Cup and CL it suits his style more atm. My preferred partnership would be Bailly and Jones or Rojo. Bailly and Rojo we’re fantastic together.

Dunno. Till date, Lindelof to me has only looked comfortable in a United shirt when he is part of a back 3. Although, that could have just been adjustment issues. We need Bailly back. We were dominating at defence with Bailly - Jones at the start of the season.

Not one successful tackle or interception by Smalling yesterday :O

Conversely, one of the leagues top strikers made 6 tackles at Southampton yesterday to leave him joint second in that category over the weekends' games.

As seemed to be the general complaining (along with the continued lack of entertainment) from lads going home from Newcastle the radio last night (never seen anything the game), Utd players need to start grafting and putting it in for the shirt. Which starts with the top fella'.

He and Sanchez were the only grafters yesterday both putting in shifts.

Lukaku and Sanchez. Smalling was the worst player on the pitch bar Pogba!

Oh. Ok ta. I was referring to Mourinho by 'it starts with the top fella''

Soz. Think wires got crossed with Lukaku. (Who FWIW was getting slammed the most along with Pogba and Martial. Different people having different views.).

Newcastle 1-0 Man Utd: Why Jose Mourinho was wrong, the Magpies did not get lucky - Shearer

Have to say that it would be **** interesting to see that sportdirect bone head go away and Rafa getting some backing up from owners on market and all the other interference owner change can bring.
Considering what he got, he has done well not to be neck deep in bottom fight.

I think Ashley has his priorities slightly off. He just dipped into the Esports bandwagon. Guy is joke. Treat employees like ****, make the club a laughing stock, screw over the manager and fans...yet keep wasting money

Sports Direct to offer e-sports in Game Digital tie-up - BBC News
 
And as much as I love watching Esports like Overwatch etc, there's no way I'm supporting this when the company treats its employees like ****. Ashley can go forth and make love to himself.

If the consensus by the match goers that you were speaking/listening to was that Lukaku needed to do more or whatever, they're talking absolute *****, and they're a bad representation of the match goers. If United put away their chances yesterday, he was clear MOTM. That's literally how fine the line is. Terrific CF play throughout and should've had an assist to his name (Sanchez bottled open net). Saw a lad post "if only lukaku could set up lukaku", which pretty much sums up his performances of late.

Unless it's against a big side. ;)


Not so much as seen the Newcastle goal so I can't personally comment on anything Utd yesterday. ('Cept Valencia should be looking at a 3 game ban from the giff put up over the page.). Just those three copped the most ire on the radio in with the general lack of graft/ entertainment.
 
James Garner & Mason Greenwood both started as England u17s beat Netherlands 2-0 today. Garner captained the team and was MOTM.
 
The way Dembele - Dier played like against Juve is the way Pogba - Matic would/should.. if we only had Eriksen and Alli with Alexis in our 3 attacking mid spots. :'(

Why Alli he’s been poor most the season! Pogba isn’t a defensive disciplined CM like Dembele or a DM like Dier. Our attacking players aren’t the problem CM is.

Poch is really doing something great with Spurs, on paper they are weaker than us in the areas you mentioned. But as a team they are superior.
