The Manchester United Thread

Might be, but the point is - United shouldn't rely on a retiring midfielder and a left back who spends more time on medical bed than on the pitch.

Think Matic has been great since Ole has took over tbh. Needs to be managed more rotation wise this season. Will definitely help with no more international football for him.

Also think Shaw has been good under Ole better than any of his previous seasons since his leg break. Obviously his injuries are not ideal hopefully Telles coming in will sort the issue of not having a quality back up.
 
Though he will not be dropping Pogba for Beek. That would be insane hit for Pogba ego.

Solskjaer explains United team selection vs Brighton
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes these Manchester United players can rediscover the form of summer and insists they’re now ready to perform after a disrupted pre-season.
This is what he told MUTV after picking Victor Lindelof and Nemanja Matic in his side:
“They’re more ready now, they’ve had some minutes, they played last week and have had training, they missed too much pre-season to play last week.
“Nemanja and Aaron played well against Luton and Mason looked sharp. This is the team that played well last time we were here so we hope we can find some of that form again.”

Rio Ferdinand on our centre backs: “There’s no point showing them the Palace game back to help them, they’ve been like that in the Europa League semi final, the FA Cup semi final. There not a good partnership. Nothing changes” [BT]
 
Criminal to start Lindelof after that last performance, Bailly must have no respect for Ole, he basically cost us 3 points and Bailly played well in the week.

Ole has a personal love in for Lindelof I'm convinced with the Scandinavian connection, this is the thing that will eventually come back to haunt Ole. Certain biases to these players.

So your saying Ole is racist? ??‍♂️ ?Maybe he thinks Bailly can’t play 2 games in 4 days. Not happy with the selection myself either lol
 
Also, there is a distinctive lack of a press seen. Used to be a half-press, we are barely doing so till now. DO think we need more energy and activity on the pitch.
 
Outplayed first 20 mins by a mile Brighton hitting the post twice. After then grew into the game with a good team goal ruled out for offside. Stupid penalty to give away! But good response getting level. Still don’t look on the pace, but gotta get a win somehow in the second half. Matic Utds best player by a country mile so far.
 
Is it in Pogba's contract to start..... cos there can't be any other reason.

When did we grow into the game? Lol. We only got our heads in after the Paneka penalty. Beforehand, the game reminded me of our Champions league final in 2011. Yes, that's right, we're making brighton look like peak Barcelona.
